SPONSORS WHAT’S NEW Titan Products release air differential pressure sensors with smart communication A


s always, Titan Products is continuing to launch new products and this month is no


different. Titan Products has developed a range of smart differential air pressure sensors offering BACnet MS/TP and Modbus RTU communications for direct connection to your building network. These latest versions will be available to order from the end of August. With no long term drift,


temperature shift and an accuracy of 0.2% near zero, the TPDPT8HACOM sensors are perfect for many HVAC


applications such as ventilation systems, fume cupboards, operating theatres, fan speed control, air pressure monitoring and leak detection systems. The TPDPT8HA COM sensors offer greater flexibility and increased integration with their BACnet MS/TP or Modbus RTU communications. Multiple range options are available and IP65 housing is used as standard for robust protection. Features:


u24V AC/DC supply uMultiple range options


Free technical support – pipework installation and innovation

pipework systems are also being used, especially if your building specifications have not fully considered the risk of galvanic corrosion. BISPA (Building and Industrial Services Pipework


Academy) is here to help, and offers a Free Pipework Specification Review Service to ensure that the correct standards and materials are being referenced within your projects. We can also provide a range of additional CIBSE


accredited training courses and workshops covering pipework installation issues and innovations, such as BIM and VR. It’s easy to access BISPA experts, and our CPDs


can be done at one of our many UK locations or alternatively, our experts can come directly to your offices or sites. Visit our website to learn more about BISPA and


how we can reduce your project risk. www.bispa.org


s the majority of building services specifications are still making reference to old, withdrawn, legacy pipework standards,


control of electrical parameters in critical load applications such as datacentres or applications requiring detailed monitoring that can reach every single branch of the electrical distribution system. The ET272 measures up to two three phase loads or up to six single phase loads simultaneously. By simply pluggingin the connector, auto connection of the primary current via the external miniature split core current sensors provide zero wiring errors. The meter is automatically programmed for CT ratio accuracy and calibration. A selection of single phase variables such as V kW, kvar, PF and total energy measurement kWh and kvarh (imported/exported) can be taken and offers instantaneous variables readout of 3 digits or energy meter readout of 6+1 digits.

arlo Gavazzi has launched its latest selfaddressing DIN rail mounting energy transducer ET272 for the


device which can connect to multiple applications: SIP+. The platform can access and integrate your buildings data to assist with building optimisation, energy reduction and connecting to the Internet of Things (IoT). The device is responsible for turning buildings into smart buildings. SIP+ provides full visibility in accessing the data within your buildings plant and systems; for example, you can view an energy dashboard, transfer data to an analytics provider or connect numerous field drivers and thirdparty drivers to each other within the same multiprotocol platform. The list continues as SIP+ can

BB has extended the reach of its UK variable speed drives (VSD) and


mechanical power transmission products with an expansion of the ABB authorised value provider network.


EDC (North East) is appointed as an ABB authorised value provider serving customers in Tyne & Wear and Cumbria with VSDs up to 500 kW and a range of life cycle services. The company operates from a


dedicated facility in Gateshead. The services include reliability assessments and harmonic surveys, through to installation and startup, operation and maintenance, upgrade and retrofit and replacement and recycling. Beta Power Engineering based


in Stockport, Cheshire is expanding its current role as an ABB authorised value provider for low voltage motors, with the addition of VSDs up to 500 kW. The company has been an ABB authorised value provider since its inception and was previously a


member of the ABB Motor Service Partner network for 15 years. West Midlandsbased Race


Transmissions is appointed the first national ABB authorised value provider for mechanical power transmission products. The company exclusively supplies and supports the full range of Dodge mounted bearings – including Type E tapered roller bearings, S 2000 series spherical roller bearings, along with Grip Tight and EZ Kleen ball bearings.

to Lot 21 of the directive and radiant heaters Lot 20. Minimum efficiencies for warm air is now 72% and radiant heaters is now 74%. Crucially, these minimum criteria are applicable for both new installations and when replacing existing products. As a result, customers can be assured that the heating equipment they are purchasing is highly energy efficient and emissions of harmful environmental pollutants are constrained. The ABX range of industrial air curtains is ideal for exceptionally


arm air, radiant and heating products are now affected by


high doors and are the perfect complement to our ErP compliant heating appliances. ABX Industrial air curtains provide a barrier of high velocity air that helps block incoming winds and stops warm air escaping. They achieve this by delivering a powerful barrier of heated air across the entire width of the doorway. Units can be easily fitted within existing or new buildings and are ideal for doorways creating a more cost efficient and comfortable indoor environment. Eight models are available, for door widths from 2m to 6m and up to 9m high. For more information email erp@nortek.com or visit:

he Green Book, the industry’s air diffusion technical guide, just got


even better. With 26,000 hard copies and hundreds of downloads of the first edition in circulation, this popular guide has been an indispensable resource for the industry since 2011. Waterloo Air Products Plc, publishers of the 48page second edition of the Green Book, has updated everything needed by HVAC consultants, engineers and architects to incorporate air diffusion into their projects. This valuable publication is


packed with information about air diffusion. Comfort criteria and acoustic information is included, as well as terms, definitions and symbols. In addition, there is information on conventional air diffusion patterns and a simple product selection guide. While Waterloo use its products for illustration purposes, this unbiased guide provides important performance


data to make it easier to choose the right product for the project. “We believe it’s important to


share knowledge within the industry. As part of our commitment to collaboration we provide HVAC consultants, architects, engineers and developers with information on air distribution, so they can create the right environment through good air flow,” says John Tiernan, Managing Director at Waterloo.

Mikrofill equipment at Shipston High School


hipston High School provides a safe, supportive and nurturing environment that enables


every pupil to grow personally and academically. In 2017 the construction of a twostorey block, featuring nine new classrooms, office space and an improved reception area got underway. The stand alone block, adjacent to the existing building has been designed to allow staff and students to move around the site safely and easily. Leading building services engineers Built Environment Consulting selected Mikrofill equipment for the project. Two Ethos 90kW condensing boilers c/w Mikrovent low loss header and pressurisation package serve a radiant panel system and LST radiators. Installed by long standing


Warwickshire contractor P&M Heating and Mechanical Services Ltd the stainless steel boilers have a combined modulation of 20 > 1 (180 > 9 kW) and Nox levels of 33 mg/kW which ensures the Ethos range far exceeds legislative requirements.


The buildings hot water


requirement is covered by the installation of a single Extreme 200 litre ‘loading cylinder’, which is designed to maximise condensing boiler efficiency by operating at a t of 30°C. Coupled with an unvented kit the Extreme is capable of producing in excess of 2000 l/hr at 60°C.
