InstallationNews CP gets Belle Vue Aces back on track at new stadium
British speedway team Belle Vue Aces is providing fans with more enlightening race days aſter installing a range of standalone lighting controls and a fully addressable lighting control system from CP Electronics. The products are providing greater energy efficiency for the club’s new £8m stadium.
P’s lighting control technologies have been installed in the stadium’s banqueting suite, storeroom facilities and washrooms, amongst other areas. This is in addition to adding energy control functionality to Belle Vue’s new National Basketball Performance Centre, located just past the racetrack in Belle Vue Village. Not only will these controls help to ensure that lighting is only being switched on when used, but they will also deliver an enhanced environment for spectators visiting the sporting complex.

RAPID, and effective PIR installation Key to this efficient energy usage is the installation of CP’s fully addressable RAPID lighting control system in the stadium’s upstairs rooms, notably its large banqueting suite. The networked solution combines state-of-the-art technology and modular mechanics, with an
easy to use graphical interface. It has been installed alongside the company’s EBR-4SC scene plate, which can be easily programmed and customised by the end user, to provide dimmable lighting performance and scene setting, depending on how the suite is being used.

primary contractor involved in the build, also installed a range of CP’s standalone passive infrared (PIR) presence detectors, which are reducing the amount of time lighting is left on unnecessarily.
These PIRs constantly scan the detection zone
for body heat and movement, switching lighting on only when this is detected. For areas including washroom facilities, changing rooms, storeroom
areas and kiosks, this is typically resulting in up to 60% savings on usual lighting energy costs. For the lower floors of Belle Vue Aces’ new stadium, CP’s push-button GESM surface- mounted PIR has been installed to deliver easy on/off switching at lux level, together with a time delay function which can easily be set by the end user.

The Redring MS6 compact electric stored water heater has proved itself as a vital solution for Jamia Islamia Trust, providing the charity with an alternative to centralised water heating.
T
he innovative Redring MS6 stored water heater has been installed in flats owned
by the Jamia Islamia Trust’s letting agency, providing an electric powered water supply to all tenants within the building and removing the possibility of unpaid gas bills with all appliances now running from an electricity meter. Located in Coventry, Jamia Islamia Trust is an
international volunteer led organisation that houses people in times of need. Within the letting agency there are seven flats, which are available to the public, the profits from which go towards funding the trust. One MS6 unit has also been installed in a kitchen at the trust. Aqib Rehman, Site Manager at the Jamia
Islamia Trust, said: “We were faced with the problem of our tenants using both a gas and electricity supply. As a charity run organisation, it became challenging for us to process payments. By using the MS6 we can now run everything via the electricity supply, which made the whole process more streamlined.
14 | electrical wholesaler September 2017 “Now that we can deliver electrically powered
hot water, the Redring MS6 compact stored water heater solved all of our problems and we have been really impressed with the product. We loved the ease of installation, having already had all of the wiring in place, the fitting of our stored water heaters was quick and easy. Also, from our tenants’ perspective the MS6 has proved a big success, they are now benefiting from the quick reliable performance of our new stored water heaters, as previous units were not delivering the required level of hot water or flow rates.” The MS6’s compact 6-litre design means that it
is ideal for supplying a single basin in domestic bathrooms, kitchens and utility rooms, where under sink space is at a premium. The unit’s neat design does not affect performance, with the MS6’s Incoloy heating element and whirlflow water flow enabling fast heating and a controllable operating water temperature of up to 75 degrees Celsius. Aqib added: “Bringing in the Redring MS6 compact stored water heater has brought value
The MS6’s compact design makes it ideal for supplying a single basin in domestic bathrooms, kitchens and utility rooms, where under sink space is tight.
