Fugenex Damp Protect

Fugenex Damp Protect is a simple innovative method for measuring humidity through an irreversible humidity indicator.
The Fugenex Damp Protect indicators provide early warning signals of humidity and help to indicated if there is a condensation problem rather than a structural fault.

There are many ways to get an on-the spot account of the relative atmospheric humidity, however, there are few ways of easily measuring the relative humidity over a period of time, i.e. how long something has been exposed to humidity above a certain level.


Fugenex Damp Protect sensors, provide a physical-chemical principle, show how long the relative humidity has exceeded a predetermined level. The reading on the indicator is non-reversible. This means that even if the relative humidity temporarily falls below the humidity level, the maximum humidity reading remains unchanged.

Fugenex sensors have a robust design that assures high reliability. The indicators are easy to read and understand, as the length of the reading is proportional to the time that exposure to humidity has exceeded the predetermined level.

The next generation gas monitor - BW GasAlertQuattro

BW Technologies have launched their new generation BW GasAlertQuattro gas detector which has been designed to provide enhanced confidence through rugged reliability and enhanced features.

Several key customer requirements have been addressed with the new BW GasAlertQuattro, improved screen to check the instrument, improved gas sensors and more importantly confidence in the instrument.

Large Clear Display
The BW GasAlertQuattro features a larger LCD display with easy to identify icons that indicate operational information, such as bump test and calibration status for simplified onsite auditing. A large heart icon pulses continually during normal operation to indicate that the instrument and environment is OK.

However, if the instrument alarms a new hazardous symbol will be displayed, highlighting the alarm.

IntelliFlash
The IntelliFlash, a green LED that continuously flashes to let the safety manager know their crew is safe, the site is compliant and the job is productive. That means no manual checks, no time spent inspecting just a quick visual scan of the area provides assurance all is well in minutes, not hours. So safety managers can spend more time on the job, not auditing equipment.

The audible alarm is different if the battery is low to a gas alarm.

Improved Sensors
BW has rigorously investigated all the sensors available on the open market and selected the best sensors for reliability and overall performance. With over 10 billion field hours the Surecell range of sensors meets customer demands for improved sensor design.

Longer Running Times
The BW GasAlertQuattro delivers longer run times that allow workers do more in all extremes the work environment demands. The interchangeable battery pack means customers can do more and spend less. They need to buy only one monitor because the battery pack transfers in the time it takes workers to change shifts.

Leica Builder - True Power on Construction Sites

Leica Geosystems have recently launched a new range of theodolites and total stations for construction sites. The Leica Builder range incorporates similar features of the larger more powerful surveying and engineering ranges but into a simpler less complicated package.

Starting with the Leica Builder 100 electronic theodolite all the way up to the Leica Builder 500, the range features the same chassis and software configurations. This allows operators to easily move to the higher specification models without retraining.

Don't be fooled into thinking the Builder range are low specification. Key options commonly featured in the Leica's TS09 range have been incoprated, like a USB memory stick which allows the operator to transfer measured data directly to a PC, or for real time data transfer use the Bluetooth wireless link. How about long range reflectorless measuring or improved onboard software.

Greater emphasis on intergration with third party surveying software. Vendors link Greabert have launched new programs directly for the Leica Builder range, allow both the total stations and hand-held laser measures to utilise the same package. A new rugged military specification field PDA – Leica DX10 allows the operator to run software, collect data and operate the instruments.

So Leica have everything in one package!
