August 2022 | September 2022 The Innovation Zone PRODUCTS & SERVICES 30 Volume 8 No.5 OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE FOR DEMANDING ENVIRONMENTS Lighting specialist Signify has launched the latest generation of its Pacific LED gen5 waterproof luminaire, designed for optimal performance in the most demanding environments, such as industry and parking areas. Pacific LED gen5 is suitable for a wide range of (heavy) industrial applications. The luminaires have a robust and compact product architecture, with high water and dust protection (IP66), combined with a high degree of mechanical protection (IK08). Due to its robust architecture and compliance with industry regulations, Pacific LED gen5 is said to be the ideal choice for industrial application areas such as warehouses and distribution centres, food processing and pharmaceutical manufacturing. The Pacific LED portfolio is proven to be highly energy-e cient and o ers luminaires with a long lifetime: up to 160 lm/W and a lifetime up to 100,000 hours L80. Also, with integration to the Interact Industry system, the luminaire opens up additional opportunities for optimised e ciency, energy saving, connectivity, productivity and safety. Simon Greenwood, sales director trade & specification, Signify UK&I, said: ‘’The Pacific LED gen5 is an innovative and best-in-class LED luminaire. We are excited to launch a lighting system that ticks all the right boxes and meets the demands and potential stresses like humidity, extreme temperatures and chemical fumes from industrial use and use in open spaces like under cover parking lots. In addition, the Pacific LED gen5 is also designed with a circular approach, which means these are fully serviceable luminaires and can be upgraded to extend their overall lifecycle- making the luminaire future proof in every aspect. https://www.lighting.philips.co.uk/systems/ themes/pacificledgen5?nocache WORLD- FAMOUS ART PROTECTED BY CONDAIR Two Condair RS steam humidifiers have been installed by Ceilite Air Conditioning at the prestigious Henry Moore Foundation in Hertfordshire. Henry Moore was a renowned artist, best known for his figure sculptures. Accurate humidity control within the range of 40-60% maintains the integrity of the valuable exhibits. Previous experience of the reliability of Condair’s humidifiers at Henry Moore’s studios meant the leading specialist in humidification was again first choice when the time came to enhance its humidity control. The previous humidity control strategy employed evaporative humidifiers at the world-famous site in Perry Green. However, the archive store required a closer level of humidity control than is possible with an evaporative system so the Condair RS was specified in consultation with the M&E consultant, Harley Haddow. The Condair RS is a resistive steam humidifier capable of providing ±5%RH control when operated on regular mains water and ±2% with RO water. www.condair.co.uk NEW SCHWANK SOLAR AIR COLLECTORS OFFER CLIMATE NEUTRAL HEATING To meet rising energy costs and decarbonisation requirements for industry and logistics, Schwank has introduced Solar Air Collectors for renewable heat generation. See https://schwank.co.uk/products/ renewable-systems/solar-air-collectors/ solarSchwank facade-mounted systems are made of perforated, light- weight aluminium. When the sun's rays meet a solar active surface coating (absorber), solar energy is converted into thermal energy. The heat is then fed directly into the building assisted by a fan without conversion processes or use of a heat exchanger. solarSchwank systems are available with or without fresh air supply and can be easily and quickly installed in new or existing buildings, significantly reducing heating costs and CO 2 emission.
