oestalpine Metsec plc has launched its newest purlins product line, the wide flange purlin.
Metsec launches new wide flange purlins product Kevin Jones, sales director for Metsec Purlins,
Metsec is first to market with the product after
identifying a need in the claddings market for a flange with a wider surface for fixing to. Previously, cladders working on a project that required a larger fixing face would have to engineer a solution from existing products and work around the problem. The introduction of this product means that the
roofing contractor has an on‐hand, bespoke, engineered solution which reduces the amount of materials and labour needed, as well as providing a cost saving.
said: “Our focus is on service and meeting our customers’ needs at all times. In speaking with our customers we realised claddings that needed a larger fixing face was a pain point for them, and so we developed our wide flange purlin product that would give an engineered, fit‐for‐purpose solution. “By introducing this into the market, we aim to
save both time and money for our customers as well as providing an easy‐to‐use solution that we hope will become the standard for claddings with larger fixing faces.” The product will feature in Metsec’s new purlins brochure, the first major update for four

called in specialist air conditioning and ventilation experts Crystal Air Ltd to install a system to suit the unique interior and effectively ventilate this underground space. The system had to be removable for future
tenants, and the installation had to be sympathetic to the original vaults, with nothing attached to the ceiling. The Panasonic 3‐Pipe ECOi MF2 Series provided an energy efficient solution. Floor‐standing units could be easily removed without being attached to the fabric of the building, leaving the vaulted ceiling free from
fittings. The system, which provides simultaneous heating and cooling, can also extract warm air and redistribute it to cooler areas. Don Hoban, of Crystal Air
Ltd said. “The flexibility of the ECOi MF2 series and floor‐ standing units allowed us to overcome every roadblock. The installation took six weeks and the finished result not only looks great but will also provide an economical and sustainable solution for the client.” Crystal Air installed 12 Panasonic CZ‐RTC2* controllers, to control of each floor‐standing unit,
allowing employees to change the temperature, fan speed, air flow, and operation mode. The Panasonic system provided an efficient solution whilst preserving the beautiful, historic interior.

suitable to applications such as hospitals, shopping centres, leisure facilities and hotels. Each parking bay is fitted with an ultrasonic sensor which will detect if the space is available therefore providing precise information to the exact number of available parking spaces and disabled bays as well as any reserved spaces. Displays using directional arrows and digits quickly guide the driver using the shortest route. A ceiling mounted 45° ultrasonic sensor mounted
at the entry of each space detects a vehicles presence and transmits precise information of the exact number of available parking spaces and disabled bays as well as any reserved spaces to displays situated around the area to indicate how many and where the spaces there are. Monitoring of lighting, ventilation, CO2 levels and
movement detectors are also possible with seamless integration into the BMS using BACnet is possible while DALI master or relays for lighting control allowing lighting to be dimmed or turned off whilst the use of I/O modules for ventilation fans can significantly reduce costs

Going ‘Up’ – new modular boiler gives 1MW from 1m²
modular boiler range, the Upton. It’s the manufacturer’s highest output, smallest footprint boiler, delivering 1MW while taking up less than 1m² floor space. Years of research have gone into the development of the aluminium heat exchanger to provide even heat distribution and optimum efficiency. The 6‐bar rated boiler has been developed with customer’s feedback in mind: Water and gas connections are in the same position across the range, regardless of output. This means that even if a project’s requirements change, models can be easily swapped with minimal effect to pipework and plant room design. The Upton’s pre‐mix burner enables further
H
fuel‐savings and environmentally‐friendly ultra‐low NOx emissions of <40mg/kWh (BREEAM Rating Excellent). With less than 60dBA noise output, it also makes a good choice for plantrooms adjoining quiet areas such as hospitals, offices and classrooms. Optional pipework kits for heating systems up to 4.2MW offer
connection points for pressurisation units and flushing points. Lastly, an optionally available low loss header specifically designed for the Upton can provide further benefits in terms of system water flow, cleanliness, circuit separation and performance.
