The Ex-PORT range of IR Sightglasses/Windows from Hawk IR has been certified for use in Zone 1 and Zone 2 hazardous areas. The Ex-PORT is understood to be the first of its kind to get such certification, confirming Hawk IR's status as a world leader in electrical thermography.

The Ex-PORT range from Hawk IR has been certified for use in Zone 1 and Zone 2 hazardous areas. The Ex-PORT is understood to be the first of its kind to get such certification, confirming Hawk IR's status as a world leader in electrical thermography. Permanently installed into electrical equipment, the Ex-PORT enables thermographers to assess and monitor live components located within an electrically hazardous area in a safe and reliable fashion without removing covers or doors.

At EDMR we are able to repair all of the following types of motors. Since being established in 1988 our focus has been to be the leading independent repairer of specialist motors as well as standard AC induction motors. Each motor type has a dedicated workshop facility with the requisite hardware, software and test rigs.

Holroyd Instruments Ltd draw upon AE experience stretching all the way back to 1974 when Trevor Holroyd (the founder of the company) started his research in this field in the prestigious Advanced Research Labs of Rolls Royce. Both fundamental research and development of Airline and Shop-Floor applications continued until in 1991 he left Rolls-Royce and set up Holroyd Instruments.

This background formed an excellent starting point from which to develop the unique AE sensor and AE signal processing upon which the MHC series of products are based. The first of these, the MHC - Machine Health Checker, was launched in 1993 and immediately carved out a reputation for being able to pick up machine faults even when other CM instruments failed.

The story of the MHC is one of initial scepticism that anything so simple could really work in the industrial environment. The phenomenon of the MHC is its ability to time and again cause such scepticism to evaporate as soon as it is seen in use detecting the presence of faults and localising their position.

Rolls Royce has taken delivery of the first AIRdeck intelligent access platforms from work at height specialist Planet Platforms.
Developed specifically for the application, the eight AIRdeck units facilitate the stringent final inspection process of the 500, 700, 800 and 900 Trent Series aviation engines at Rolls Royce's Civil Aerospace Customer Delivery Centre (CDC) in Derby, UK.
One AIRdeck system is made up of two pre-set heights (3No.) hydraulic scissor packs, platforms positioned in a parallel configuration.

Penloc ZT is a high performance threadlocker designed to work in temperatures ranging from -55C to +150C. ZT will cure to handling strength in 5 - 20 minutes dependant on temperature and will be fully functional in 45 minutes.

 

Putting together the compressed air jigsaw can be a puzzling experience! Sifting through the various puzzle pieces, analysing them in turn and then trying to find their place in relation to the big picture takes time and resource.

At BOGE, we now have over 99 years of knowledge, experience and engineering excellence to provide you with the winning formula! Continual research and development is invested into creating cutting edge compressed air solutions. Our free five-year warranty gift, a first of its kind in the industry, offered on all new BOGE screw compressors further underpins the BOGE quality proposition.

BABCOCK WANSON are specialists in industrial coil boilers offering a range of steam generators from 150 to 8000 Kg/h with operational pressures from 5 to 50 bar. The water volume is low and flows directly proportional to the desired steam output using a positive displacement water feed pump. In the high pressure HPVAP Series 100 bar is possible in a closed loop thermosyphon pumpless design offering very high overall plant efficiency without pressure vessels and suitable for a range of batch and variable process flow applications particularly in edible oil processing.

QinetiQ’s Zephyr High Altitude Long Endurance (HALE) solar powered Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) has achieved its longest flight to date during a set of flight trials at the White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico.

The surveillance aircraft is manned with numerous sensors and Qinetiq selected Thermoteknix’ MIRICLE® 110K high performance miniature infrared camera to collect thermal imagery. The MIRICLE® 110K video output now offers 384 x 288 resolution in NTSC and RS170 formats as well as in PAL and CCIR. This gives 44% more pixels when compared to 320 x 240 pixel cameras resulting in a wider field of view for the same focal length lens, or a smaller focal length lens to match the FOV. This leads to smaller and lighter optics and improved FOV to weight ratio, ideal for portable and UAV applications.

 
Click to view full size imageMIRICLE® is also available as a 640 x 480 unit and both models ship either as OEM cores/engines or as fully built sealed cameras with a choice of optics. A choice of digital and analog outputs complete the package to meet application needs. Zephyr is an ultra-lightweight electrically powered aircraft, with a wingspan of up to 16 metres but weighing less than 30 kg. The aircraft uses a combination of solar array and rechargeable batteries and, when fully developed, is expected to operate for months at a time at an altitude above 50,000 feet providing a sustained and persistent earth observation platform. Zephyr flew with MIRICLE® on board at an altitude over 50,000 feet for 18 hours, including 7 hours in the dark.

Zephyr is equipped with a Thermoteknix MIRICLE 110K 384 x 288 pixel resolution thermal imaging camera.
