Avoiding the dangers of bad lighting in the workplace

estimated 71,062 employee nonfatal injuries as reported by employers in 2017/18, most of which occurred by common yet avoidable incidents. The two biggest problems highlighted in the report


for workplace injuries were slipping, tripping and falling followed by handling, lifting and carrying. There are many procedures employers are required to enforce in order to prevent accidents from happening, but bad lighting is often not acknowledged as a workplace hazard. Ineffective lighting in the workplace is associated


with a range of health issues from eye strain and posture to lethargy and attention problems, however, in environments such as factories, warehouses and distribution centres, a dark or dimly lit facility can lead to injuries and even fatalities. In busy warehouses, poor illumination can have serious consequences and should be treated as a significant health and safety issue, with many customers only contacting companies on the back of a serious health and safety breach.

power supplies, introduce their new DINRail power supply CP20.241V1 featuring a remotecontrolled ON/OFF feature. This allows system administrators and building automation controllers to switch the power supply on or off by use of an external signal switch or transistor gate. This remotecontrol feature makes centralised control of multiple system components very simple to implement and provides a very efficient shut down facility in the event of system failure or emergency. The new PULS CP20.241V1 is part of the DIMENSION CP series, which provides efficient solutions for designers and systems integrators requiring powerful and spacesaving DIN rail power supplies.


P


With a width of only 48mm, PULS has set a new standard in this power class. The compact design of the CP20 units is made possible due to its efficiency of 95.6%. The devices have been optimised not only for the highest possible peak efficiency at full load but also provides excellent efficiencies with partial loads. High efficiency levels across the entire load range mean lower energy costs for the users in the usage

way of managing air circulation during colder months, it is notable that its benefits are rarely discussed in summer. Even the summer bypass function, which prevents incoming air from being passed over the heat exchanger, does little to help when the outside temperatures are soaring. Clearly, the ability to cool incoming air is becoming an increasingly important element of ventilation.” Mechanical Ventilation with


Heating and Coolth* Recovery (MVHCR) units are capable of essentially acting in reverse, passing outgoing cooler air over the heat exchanger, which helps to


s structures become better insulated, and the climate gets warmer, ventilation


strategies should incorporate cooling technology (MVHCR) to combat overheating, according to an industry expert. Paul Harrington, Head of


Residential Sales at Elta Fans, comments: “Until recently, the use of Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR) has been the preferred method for maximising thermal comfort in an energy efficient way. Although it is effective when the outside air is cold, problems often occur when temperatures begin to rise. “This is because an improvement in the insulation of our homes has meant heat is unable to escape, and is therefore retained within buildings more than ever before. Combined with a warming climate, this often leads to instances of overheating, and a drastic reduction in thermal comfort.


ensure the incoming air remains ambient. Solutions such as Elta Fans’ Vigo and PREMA ranges ensure that, regardless of the outside temperature, the desired indoor level can be maintained. The ability to cool incoming air also has a knockon, positive impact on the efficiency and effectiveness of air conditioning. MVHCR prevents the coldness within the air from escaping, working in tandem to reduce the stress placed on air conditioning units, and achieve the ideal internal temperature. Paul concludes: “The


importance of MVHCR can be outlined by comparing it to air conditioning in a car. If you open a window, the vehicle’s climate control has to work harder in order to maintain the desired temperature. The same applies in buildings, and ventilation systems that allow warm air to enter are essentially working against air conditioning units. “MVHCR is the yearround solution, able to heat and cool incoming air in an energy efficient way, to ensure optimum thermal comfort regardless of the outside temperature.” For more information on Elta
