What’sNew Testo launches the new 300 flue gas analyser Testo, a German measurement technology company with over 60 years’ experience has released their latest flue gas analyser the testo 300. Combining intuitive high definition SmartTouch operation with robust design and professional documentation and reporting, this gas analyser is perfectly tailored for the needs of a high demand environment. One of the highlights of the testo 300 is the large 5” HD SmartTouch display. It allows intuitive one-touch operation, just like a smartphone. This ease-of-use extends to simplified measurement ability and also instant operation when activated from standby mode. Measurement values are displayed either as a graph or table, offering users more options for data analysis. The testo 300’s bolted housing, robust sensors, protected display and secure mounting allows it to withstand any tough working day. Its scratch-proof display is countersunk and equipped with an exchangeable protective film to ensure the screen remains undamaged while strong magnets further secure attachment. The sensor technology is designed for long-life with up to 6 years’ service life with intensive daily use and automatic dilution of up to 30,000 ppm CO. The testo 300 boasts well-structured and intuitive options for all applications. This facilitates easier measurement and recording of flue gas, draught, CO, smoke count, differential pressure, differential temperature and tightness testing. Reports containing information on measurement values, customer applications and heating systems can be created directly on the flue gas analyser. It is also possible for the user to include their own comments and data sets. All technical work is checked off via electronic signature on the testo 300, and reports can then be emailed to the client or stored on the instrument.
In addition to O₂ and CO sensors, you can option a third sensor slot for the measurement of NOx. The testo 300 is a highly configurable and customisable analyser offering a tailored solution for all your needs, and you can choose between two- or four-years’ warranty on all sensors.

Allplastics clear polycarbonate machine guards Employee safety is paramount in the workplace. Many industrial accidents can be prevented by providing machinery with proper guarding. Allplastics Engineering can provide, cut, fabricate and CNC rout a range of clear polycarbonate brands including Lexan, Makrolon, Palram, Safeguard and for a variety of industries such as food and beverage, material handling, mining, packaging and pharmaceuticals where operators need to see through the guards but should not risk their fingers and hands. It also helps on assembly lines where WHS regulations require processes or machinery to be guarded for the safety of workers. The SafeWork NSW states that guarding must be securely mounted. If access is required to parts of the plant during operation, maintenance or cleaning, the guarding should be an interlocked physical barrier that allows access when there is no risk –and prevents access at all other times. Polycarbonate is 250 times the strength of normal glass and half the weight of if it. Available from 1 mm to 12.7 mm thick, polycarbonate is virtually unbreakable and covered by a warranty from the manufacturer. This makes it the preferred choice of engineers when designing guards for machinery. In applications where the guards are constantly being cleaned and are subjected to constant wear Allplastics provides mar resistant grade polycarbonate which has a special coating on both sides of the clear polycarbonate to minimise guards and barriers being easily damaged or marked. Brands such as Lexan MR10 and Makrolon AR2 are available in thicknesses ranging from 3mm to 12.7mm. Allplastics can provide CNC routered shapes to match drawings or broken guards. The company’s experienced fabrication personnel can bend or construct chutes, guards, boxes or covers for a diverse range of applications. For situations such as curved lathe guards or surrounds Allplastics can supply thin gauge polycarbonate which can be cold bent and secured by a frame.
