ATLAS COPCO COMPACT BOOSTERS AMP UP PRESSURE
INCREASE SAFETY IN YOUR OPERATIONS
Atlas Copco’s Hurricane high-pressure boosters feature a versatile and efficient design that delivers maximum pressure in a compact form factor. The Hurricane range uses modular designs that ensure they can fit a wide variety of applications, allowing two-stage boosters to be used in one stage mode to increase pressure. The Hurricane range is with any air compressor in a feed air configuration. Models include the Hurricane B7-41 single-stage compressor that is powered by a Caterpillar C7 diesel engine. Its small footprint fits power that is equivalent to larger and heavier units, while enabling a high pressure, gain penetration rate for drilling applications, including exploration projects and blast hole drilling.
LSM CabSense is a driver and occupant fatigue, distraction and behavioural monitoring camera designed for mobile or stationary vehicle fleet. The device uses a unique inward facing IR camera that detects driver events such as drowsiness, distraction, identity and dangerous actions, providing real-time driver alerts, as well as tailored fleet manager alerts and insights sent to LSM FSM Fleet Safety Manager telematics system. The detection of driver state, behaviour, driver ID and camera status enable life-saving and cost-saving features to the fleet and its drivers. The device is equipped with self-monitoring capabilities to detect tampering and other malfunctions which may have an adverse effect on its operation.

FOR ALL YOUR DRAINAGE NEEDS
A BREAKTHROUGH IN HELMET TECHNOLOGY
Dixon’s Layflat delivery hoses, which are used extensively across mining, quarrying, construction and irrigation, are particularly popular for high-lift drainage of water. Ease of transport and handling makes these delivery hoses particularly popular in applications such as dewatering high-sided coal mining pits. Dixon provides Layflat hoses in three performance classes, including medium duty (blue), heavy duty (red) and extra heavy duty (green). It is critical that customers choose the right hose that matches their requirements to avoid costly down times. As for any hydraulic assembly, the ultimate performance of the hose depends on the couplings used for their fitting. Dixon offers a wide range of couplings, each suited to a different water pressure level.
The new 3M Speedglas Welding Helmet G5-02 features the world’s first curved auto-darkening welding lens. Perhaps the most significant leap forward since the brand released the first auto-darkening welding helmet in 1981, Speedglas Curved Glass Technology serves to maximise the natural range of vision to create a 100 per cent wider field of view. While in the past a larger field of view would involve the compromise of a larger, heavier and more cumbersome helmet shell, the G5-02 lens allows the best of both worlds – wider views in an incredibly slim, lightweight helmet. The curved shape of the welding lens closely mirrors the welder’s face to increase peripheral vision, improve overall weight distribution and narrow the profile of the helmet.
