installed in standard ceilings, so if they’re fitted into a room with an exposed ceiling they often don’t give the right level of performance,” says Mat Southgate, Technical Quality Manager at Waterloo. “That’s because the ceiling itself is an integral part of the overall performance, so we needed to come up with a design that would offer the efficiency without compromising the pared back look.

“We can add a coanda plate as an


extension to the swirl,” adds Mat. “The performance levels go up – but it’s quite big and compromises the industrial look architects want. “To find an alternative we recreated an


exposed ceiling at our inhouse lab in Kent. The result is a small device that is designed to be easily added to the swirls. It looks good. It doesn’t detract from the exposed ceiling and we proved the performance of the air distribution through smoke tests.”

Mikrofill’s extreme HWS loading cylinder is now available with 6 bar capability


Mikrofill Systems Ltd can now deliver hot water upto 6 bar so the majority of buildings are now catered for. The Wras approved


T


stainless steel loading cylinders are available in 200, 300 & 500 litre models and can all accommodate 120kW of primary input at 80°C. The net result is an instantaneous secondary performance in excess of 2000 l/hr at 60°C on all


he pioneering ‘Extreme’ hot water loading cylinder from


models with the 500 litre model producing 2570 l/hr. The Extreme is designed


to operate at a t of 30°C on the primary side therefore maximising a condensing boiler’s efficiency whilst initially loading and further producing 60°C instantaneous hot water. The Extreme also has an onboard automated/manual pasteurisation programme.

combine the advanced technology of low NOx wall mounted continuous flow water heaters with a stainless steel storage cylinder, all in one compact footprint. The design parameters of this product allow specifiers, designers, installers and engineers to benefit from unique Rinnai technology in applications it was once not previously possible. For instance, the Infinity Solo features both 35kW and 54kW sized appliances, ensuring sites with a smaller gas meter can readily use this technology. The larger Infinity Solo model will also act as a highefficiency alternative to gas fired storage appliances that exist in today’s market. The cylinder is stainless steel and this

reduces the weight compared to glass lined models, and it makes transportation, handling and installation a lot easier. As well as the difference in weight, the cylinders also have extremely low heat loss figures (as low as 1.41kW/h day), so the user pays less to maintain the heat within the tank.


innai Infinity Solo condensing and low NOx water heater is said to be the first of its kind in the UK to


Another benefit of the Infinity Solo


with stainless steel cylinder is that the life expectancy of the material is far greater than that of a glasslined equivalent as glass suffers from thermal shock causing it to crack after a period of time. The Infinity Solo range is also


renewables compatible and supplied pre fitted with a coil, meaning that the primary energy source will always be from renewable gains and the complementary Rinnai water heater will only apply the precise amount of gas to boost the difference in temperature. Rinnai manufactures the energy


efficient Infinity range of low NOx gas fired continuous flow water heaters and space heaters. The Infinity brand carries the widest range of condensing water heaters on the market today with the most impressive efficiencies in operation, leading the field in technological innovation.

arm Air, Radiant and Heating Products are now affected by European Regulations.


Warm air heaters are subject 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. Our ErP compliant range includes, PREEVA EC


(heating and ventilation unit), which provides combined heating and ventilation with optional cooling.


The units are available with a wide range of heat outputs and cooling capacities. The units are available as non condensing heaters with thermal efficiencies above 91% or fully condensing heaters with thermal efficiencies of 102% (ncv). The design combines high thermal efficiency,


quality components and ease of maintenance for enhanced life expectancy and reduced life cycle costs. The PREEVA EC range incorporates an EC plug fan,


which provides a wide range of air duties and external static pressures. The addition of the optional mixing box enables air filtration.

alternative to the complexities that a fully capable BMS can bring with it. What makes the SYX66x range exceptional is the combination of ease of use with flexibility. The controllers are very easy to setup and are adaptable to manage almost any simple plantroom. Guided by simple setup options for the system (boiler, heating, HWS etc) the controller is directly customised for the building it is installed in. A wide range of installation accessories are ready to be used with the


U


SYX66x which allow simple upgrades of older optimiser/compensator control systems. The SYX66x range also supports different sensor types from other manufacturers thus saving even more time and money. Furthermore, the SYX66x range can be integrated into larger supervised systems if required. The SYX66x is a simple to use heating control system, suitable for facilities such as schools, clinics, offices, and assisted living facilities. The controller in particular helps schools improve performance by monitoring its optimisation results. If there is an issue with the heating it will let you know. No specialist tools or software is needed. The SYX66x uses simple


terminology that is easy to understand. It can be managed locally via its own interface, from a remote computer/touch screen, or if WiFi is available, from a smart device such as a phone or tablet. Built on solid experience, reliability and commonality, you begin to save money from the very moment you decide to install it. uDay extend Settings activate when time program ends uSimple settings for a wide range of applications  no worries about programming uUnderstandable and familiar parameters all explained in the guide uSelfLearning to reduce energy and increase comfort uTemperature and plant activity recording uEngineer Commissioning Mode to allow testing and demonstrations uA wide range of options and mounting plates for retrofit upgrades and new installations uChoice of models to suit existing sensor types uInbuilt web browser allows direct access for users and engineers. uThree password levels uThe SYX controllers can be custom reprogrammed to suit changing needs of the building/design in the future.

standardise communications between their automation devices from different manufacturers, so that data can be shared and equipment can work together easily. As an open ended system that can also be retrofitted, BACnet allows the building manager to choose from a large range of devices and make their system as simple or as complex as they need it to be. BACnet is not limited to any particular manufacturer, so operators can remove and replace any devices in their building automation system. This adaptability means it is ideally suited to work alongside SIP+, a


multifunctional, multiprotocol platform for building managers who wish to make their building smarter. Alastair Ewen, Account


Manager for Synapsys Solutions, said: “From the start we have said our SIP+ Platform offers a world of potential and we believe the introduction of the BACnet Integrated Controller (BIC) demonstrates this perfectly. The BACnet driver can simply be added in the same way as your existing drivers and contains all the attributes you would expect for network integration.”
