Through intelligent reporting, it takes reducing energy consumption and lowering running costs to the next level… The innovative SIP+ Data Acquisition product can gather high volumes of realtime data from a wide variety of plant, sensors, meters and systems such as gas, electricity, temperature, biomass, humidity, power usage meters etc at regular intervals. In comparison to some other

Simple data acquisition with SIP+ Data
ata acquisition has been made simple with the new multiprotocol SIP+ Data
for receiving and transmitting data via multiple protocols such as Modbus, MBus, BACnet and Trend.
An added benefit is that the building data recorded by this hardware can be used by any thirdparty device, such as a data analytics provider. This enables smartthinking building owners and managers to determine patterns, trends and anomalies in building performance and manage their site to a greater degree by making strategic decisions for improvements.

exposed ceiling design. Gilberts Blackpool, Britain’s leading independent provider of value engineered air distribution solutions, has applied its expertise beyond the primary visual element, the diffuser. Now, the company can manufacture circular plenum chambers, to interface with its entire range of circular swirl diffusers. The zincplated plenum options enhance the aesthetics of the ventilation, creating a more integrated appearance between ductwork and diffuser. They also provide enhanced distribution of warm air, saving energy. “Historically plenums would be

“Round, swirl diffusers are increasingly commonly being chosen because of the synergy with round ductwork. It was therefore logical in our eyes to look at ways we could contribute further towards a unity of construction silhouette.” Gilberts has developed the plenums entirely inhouse, from concept to production: the company designed and manufactured the tools and presses required, then validated the component via its inhouse CFD capability and test laboratory. The circular plenum is available
to integrate with Gilberts’ range of round swirl diffusers, particularly the fixed and adjustable GS range, that features a copyright design for optimised, omnidirectional discharge.

ight Efficient Design UK’s retrofit LED
lighting solutions have been installed at a popular and longestablished outdoor shopping precinct in Hampshire, resulting in energy savings and significantly reduced lamp replacement costs during the first year of operation. This followed a major
refurbishment which included the upgrading of the centre’s existing metal halide floodlighting to LEDs in order to create a brighter ambience for shoppers while reducing energy and maintenance costs. The centre attracts high daily footfall from shoppers visiting such well known retail outlets as Argos, Boots, Costa, KFC, Primark, Sainsbury, and WH Smith. Approximately 40 x 100 watt
wallmounted lamps were replaced with 30 watt Light Efficient Design UK LED8087 retrofit lamps. They were
selected for their high performance and costeffectiveness. The retention of the existing and still serviceable fittings ensured considerable immediate savings to be made. A five year lifetime warranty was also included. The existing reflectors in the
fitting were removed as the interior space was limited and was not necessary due to the LED 8087’s unique and fully directional one sided design which ensures optimal usage of all available light. For more information call: 01635 904 204, email:
