Energy saving heating for people, not the air Infrared heat is the type of heat that the sun gives us. We’ve all stepped in and out of shady areas on a spring or winter afternoon and been fascinated by the difference in our comfort level.
T
he shady areas are very much cooler than the areas in the rays of the sun. This is because the sun is heating us (and objects around us) but not warming the AIR around us. Specialised Heating Applications’ Cumfitheat range of infrared heaters use
direct line of sight and radiate heat to floor level objects which, in turn, heat the surrounding air to a more comfortable temperature. People and animals at floor level enjoy instant, cost-saving comfort.
Any size, any budget Also perfect for large high ceiling areas and arenas, these infrared heaters can be sized to fit any budget and situation from commercial offices to the factory floor. Supplied and serviced by a leader in the heating industry, these heaters were designed and manufactured for their quality, reliability and – most importantly – their cost effectiveness.
Full range available
Specialised Heating’s new heating product includes an optional accessory to reduce energy consumption
Infrared short wave radiant heaters, Skirting Heaters, Infrared medium wave radiant heaters, Fan heaters, wall mounted, Convection heaters, wall mounted, tubular heaters and specialised automotive paint drying solutions. 21
Specialised Heating’s Cumfifit range offers instant, cost-saving comfort.
Energy saving options Specialised Heating’s new product range includes an optional energy efficiency accessory. The device will only switch on the instant heat IR heater if a person is actually within the heat zone of the heater, reducing instance in which heaters accidentally remain on overnight, or when nobody is in the vicinity.

CTX Dielectric Silicone Compound Grease Through extensive research and investigation, both locally and abroad, a replacement sliding contact lubricant has been found, named CTX Dielectric Silicone Compound.
C
TX compound is formulated to be used on sliding, rotating and transfer contacts as used in low and high voltage switchgear and isolators. CTX can also be applied to any moving parts to prevent corrosion and also to maintain smooth mechanical action in switchgear moving parts.
CTX properties • Formulations are stable in operating temperatures ranging from - 40º to 250ºC. • Low bleed properties ensure minimal separation of fluids, while maintaining lubricating and barrier characteristics over a long period of time. • Excellent anti-oxidant and anti-corrosive characteristics. • Compounds will withstand water washout. • CTX applies and spreads easily. • Compound will not harden or ever become powdery. • Odourless and colourless.
• Unlike petroleum-based lubricants, silicone compounds will not adversely affect EPDM and most other insulating materials.
Typical applications for CTX • Electrical joint compound (inhibitor). • As epoxy mould release agent. • As a lubricant to facilitate the assembly of medium voltage (40 000 volt) premould insulated splices used by electric supply utilities. • To lubricate and extend the life of ‘O’ rings in electrical, mechanical and electronic applications. • To waterproof electrical boxes and coaxial connections and splices in communications equipment. • To protect metal parts from corrosive acids and alkalies. • For Aluminium (Al) to Aluminium (Al) and Aluminium (Al) to Copper (Cu) busbar and flexible connectors. • As a lubricant for sliding contacts, knife switches, cluster and poker contacts, male and female plugs and sockets, etc. CTX must not be used on load switching or arcing contacts. CTX should also not be used as a lubricant for ball and roller bearings.
Packing CTX compound is available in 300 gram cartridges or 500 gram tubs. 27

Your faithful measuring companion Make life easier and make measurements more accurate with this range of precision instruments. Smarttool The Smarttool can measure all angles in a 360º range. Made of high strength materials, it can take abuse other levels cannot withstand. Smarttool is simple to use. It can be calibrated to factory accuracy with the touch of a button. Just press the On/Off button and it shows the angle in three different engineering units, with a 0.1º resolution. The display even "flips over" – Smarttool always reads right-side up. To make operation
simpler, a beeper sounds at level. Smarttool lengths available in 60cm and 120cm.

Eco-friendly & energy efficient cooling & heating systems Metraclark are sellers of environmentally friendly and energy efficient cooling and heating products. They have the widest range of quality systems, products and availability, backed by 27 branches countrywide.
T
hey offer refrigeration, air-conditioning, heat pumps, VFR systems & evaporative cooling systems, uniquely tailored to the needs of industrial applications.
TOSHIBA VRF VRF is a variable refrigerant flow system that uses eco-friendly refrigerant and heat recovery technology, allowing independent zone heating and cooling. It is an efficient system that combines simplicity with operating flexibility, reducing energy and maintenance costs.
iGeyser Heat Pumps The iGeyser heat pump is the future in non-sun dependant water heating systems. This system col-
lects ambient air through the air filter. The ecofriendly refrigerant absorbs the heat in the air and cools it. The refrigerant gets pumped through the system compressor, allowing the temperature to increase, heating up the water and expelling cool air to where it can be used. I-Geyser benefits: • 3 times more efficient than conventional geysers • Energy savings of up to 72% • Easy to install • Easy to use control panel with 3 energy efficient settings • Will work even if weather conditions are not favorable, unlike solar dependant systems • Suitable for interior and exterior applications • No pressure problems or cracked piping in winter
Water Wizard The Water Wizard is an evaporative cooling sys33
tem, with no need for complicated ducting. Ambient air is sucked into the cooler and passes through wet pads. The water evaporates into the air stream, the heat is absorbed and the air cooled. Water Wizard benefits: • Environmentally friendly • Filters dust from ambient air and expel fresh clean air • A cost effective alternative to other air-conditioning systems • Energy savings of up to 70 – 90% • Auto water fill and dump function • Auto timer and air sweep

Accurate “control valve at the outlet” gas pressure measuring system The position of the control valve in flowmeters can be crucial when measuring gas flow, regardless of whether the valves are built into the device or separate.
W
ith the “valve at the outlet” version, the loss in pressure caused, does not affect measurement. If a valve is used to reduce the flow at the inlet of the measuring device, the pressure in the measuring tube behind the valve is reduced. Because gasses are compressible, this change in operating pressure results in a significant measurement error.
For example: A pressure reduction from 5 to 4 bars of absolute
pressure in the measuring tube of a variable area flowmeter results in a measurement error of almost 12%. Therefore, more or less gas flows unnoticed through the device than is displayed. However, when the valve is positioned at the outlet, the drop-in pressure does not occur until after the measuring tube and thus does not affect measurement. For this reason, KROHNE offers the “control valve at the outlet” version for its DK series.
DK series The DK series consists of a range of low volume flowmeters with glass or metal cones.
Application The “control valve at the outlet” can be used in many different applications ranging from: • Inlet pipes • Gas chromatography 34
• Gas initiation measurements in chemistry • The measurement of gases used for anaesthesia in hospitals In some instances, the control valve can be in front of the measuring device, for example when a gas is measured against a constant pressure (e.g. atmospheric pressure). In this case, the measuring device is not calibrated based on the primary pressure but instead based on the constant output pressure prevailing in the measuring tube.

New spring balancers for auto trade Keeping tooling and appliances close at hand Yale’s new Spring Balancers are perfectly suited to the automotive industry and applications where tooling/appliances need to be close at hand.
Safety and convenience The Spring Balancers have 360º rotating forged top hooks with safety latches as well as suspension eyes for secondary safety chains. Compact design allows easy exchange of components. The automatic drum-locking device holds the load securely in case of spring failure. A manual drum lock facilitates maintenance while the spring assembly is in a separate housing to avoid accidents during replacement.

YBA series Model “YBA” series have the same technical features as the “YBF” series, but are equipped with an additional feature in the case of rope breakage. This mechanism locks the rope in case of accidental dislodging of the New spring balancers from CMCO Material Handling suspended
ale Spring Balancers models “YBF” and “YBA” improve the ergonomics and efficiency of production and come from the CMCO Material Handling stable, a subsidiary of the international Columbus McKinnon Corporation Group (manufacturers and suppliers of Yale). Defining features Defining features include an accessible vertical axis set screw for adjustment, a load indicator showing operating range and load setting, a nylon rope guide to eliminate wear between the cable and spring balancer housing and a precision-made steel drum axle with tapered drum to extend lifespan.
weight, breakage of the bottom hook or the rope. YFS series The YFS series of retractors is designed to retract the cable when no force is applied the torque of the rewind spring increases as the cable extends. Units have a hanger for a second support chain, a nylon liner to prevent rope/casing wear and a powder coated sheet metal casing. Tools can be set at a required level with a cable stop.

Choosing the right Hydraulic Fluid Viscosity is the single most important factor when selecting a hydraulic fluid.
I
t doesn’t matter how good the other properties of the oil are if the viscosity grade is not correctly matched to the operating temperature range of the hydraulic system. In this situation, maximum component life will not be achieved. Defining the correct fluid viscosity grade for a particular hydraulic system involves consideration of several interdependent variables.
These include • Starting viscosity at minimum ambient temperature • Maximum expected operating temperature, which is influenced by maximum ambient temperature and load parameters. • Permissible and optimum viscosity range for the system’s components
Detergent or no detergent? DIN 51524; HLP-D fluids are a class of anti-wear hydraulic fluids that LUBE FUSION manufactures, that contain detergents and dispersants. The use of these fluids is approved by most major hydraulic component manufacturers. Detergent oils have the ability to emulsify water, and disperse and suspend other contaminants such as varnish and sludge. This keeps components free from deposits, however, it also means that contaminants do not settle out - they must be filtered out. The LUBEFUSION technical team source the highest quality base oils at the best possible prices to ensure that you get the best value for money Hydraulic Oil. Fusing value, service, quality and expertise together to ensure that you, the customer, have the right package for the right application.
