SBES, the lone worker protection specialist, has just completed the installation of its LifeSaver lone worker alarm system at the Synchrotron Radiation Source (SRS) building at Daresbury Laboratory in Cheshire near Warrington. The site is operated by the Council for the Central Laboratory of the Research Councils (CCLRC) and is a World class facility that supports the research community by providing access to advanced facilities and extensive scientific and technical expertise.
According to Andy Goulden, an engineer at Daresbury Laboratory, this particular application was unusual as there were two distinct types of lone workers on the site that needed protection. Firstly, there were CCLRC staff who might be working alone on a shift pattern across a 24/7 period. Secondly, there were site
SBES has recently completed the installation of a diverse lone worker protection system for ExxonMobil Aviation at six airports across the UK. The system, the first of its type anywhere in the World, will protect workers either out on site refuelling aircraft or back at the operational base.
The initiative to install the SBES system has come from Paul Heald, SHE and OIMS adviser for ExxonMobil Aviation in the UK. He recognised that during a 24h period at Manchester Airport personnel were often working alone and that a solution to this

Unexpected pump failure can be costly and time consuming. By installing an affordable Hedland direct-reading flow meter on the pump case drain, the user can monitor changes in efficiency by keeping tabs on any increase in case drain flow. The excess case drain flow shows the pump is beginning to fail. This allows you to schedule preventive maintenance and reduce unexpected down time.
Hedland's Variable Area meter has a low pressure drop, typically 1-5 PSIG with an accuracy of 2% of full scale. The meter can be installed in any position with no special piping or flow straighteners. Hedland also offers the EZ-VIEW Variable Area meter, a low cost Polysulfone version with a 5% full scale accuracy.
For a more sophisticated case drain monitoring system, Hedland offers the Flow-Alert Reed Switch and MR Flow Transmitter. The Reed Switch can automatically signal an alarm if case drain flow increases beyond a predetermined limit. It can be connected to a PLC or to other devices to automatically open closed electrical circuits, or activate warning lights and audible alarms. MR Flow Transmitters can be connected to any data acquisition, PLC or PC for advanced analysis. It features an on-board digital display and electronic output signal with analog outputs of 4-20mA, 0-5 VDC or 0-10 VDC for remote transmitter.

A food processing plant in Maracaibo, Venezuela has seen significant benefits following the installation of Hydropaths patented AquaKlear system. Previously, the plant experienced scale and bio-fouling problems in its cooling towers as it is located in a hard water area. This resulted in the management using costly anti-scale chemicals to eliminate the effects.
The solution to this problem was the introduction of the AquaKlear P120 unit. Two clean cooling towers were used to trial the technology, to allow a fair comparison. During the initial stage, cooling tower 1 continued using anti-scale chemicals to remove limescale deposits and the results were recorded. During the second stage the plant ceased using chemicals, and the AquaKlear unit was installed. Cooling tower 2 provided the

The new Draeger X-plore 6000 range of Full Face Masks combines quality and reliability with comfort and ease of use. As successors to the popular Panorama Nova Standard threaded mask, this economical range is available in five different versions and features an integral bar code and a variety of fresh new colours. Ideal for use in any application requiring reliable respiratory protection and clear vision, the masks are fully compatible with all Rd40 standard thread filters, as well as powered air purifying respirators and normal pressure compressed air breathing apparatus.
The new integral barcode means that not only is the mask uniquely identifiable and, therefore, more hygienic in use, but it can also be easily tracked for inventory and maintenance purposes. Available in one universal size and featuring a triple sealing action, the X-plore 6000 range also benefits from a double-layered face seal to offer the highest possible protection for every type of face.
