BABCOCK WANSON says its premium range of fire tube steam boilers are designed to provide customers with a boiler that meets the very latest safety and operational guidelines at an “off the shelf” price and with shortest practicable delivery time. The Premium Range is based around Babcock Wanson’s NBWB and BWD fire tube boilers that use the latest generation of burners for exceptional quality and performance. Natural gas fired fully modulating burners are fitted to the majority of the range covering outputs from 250 - 6000 kg/h with a 12-15 barg design pressure, making them ideal for the majority of process steam users. t | 020 8953 7111 e | info@babcock-wanson.co.uk w | www.babcock-wanson.co.uk AIRMATICS, a simple cloud-based air compressor monitoring, performance and control solution that provides real time data, analytics and insights at the push of a button, has been launched by global compressor management specialist, CMC. The company says AIRMATICS is capable of managing an infinite number of locally interconnected fixed speed, variable speed or variable output air compressors. Andy Dickinson, facilities manager at Pharmaron-UK, one of the first AIRMATICS customers, adds: “Our key goals are to cut energy costs, reduce our carbon footprint and spend less time manually monitoring and adjusting compressors during run time in order to boost performance and increase the longevity of our assets. AIRMATICS takes away this concern by automatically doing it for us, which enables the team to focus on other critical day-to-day operational tasks.” w | www.airmatics.eu / www.cmcnv.com ABB reports it has launched a Lunch ‘n’ Learn training session that shows how water companies can use variable speed drives (VSDs) to make dramatic improvements in their leakage rates. Topics covered include: how VSDs tackle common causes of leakage including elevated supply pressures and water hammer; the role of inbuilt VSD smart functions; the increasing use of cloud-based monitoring techniques in leakage prevention strategies; and how one ABB customer is set to save £4.5 million on repairs and energy costs by 2021 by using VSDs to maintain correct water pressure. The 45-minute session, reducing leakage through the use of variable speed drives, is free to attend and can be delivered at customer premises or an ABB facility.

Pressure on water leaks When Aberdeen Marine was awarded the contract to protect six piles on the Eriskay Causeway Bridge in the Western Isles it suggested the use of the WINN & COALES (DENSO) SeaShield 2000FD System™ as an alternative to the original specified system. The company submitted details of the technical merits of the SeaShield 2000FD system™ and the benefits in using this tried and tested system to the Western Isles Council, who agreed to the change in the specification. Seashield 2000FD™ is a heavy duty robust system which provides protection against corrosion on marine piles. It consists of Denso S105 Paste™, Denso Marine Piling Tape™ and a HDPE Jacket which is applied by pneumatic tensioning equipment and secures with stainless steel bolts. t | 020 8670 7511. e | mail@denso.net Contract to protect piles Monitoring solution cuts energy bills Chemical dosing specialist WES says it is looking forward to meeting and advising delegates from the chemical industry supply chain and water utilities sector at CHEMUK 2019. This inaugurral event, brings together chemical product development, specification, processing and manufacturing businesses, and their suppliers and offers an unprecedented opportunity to share information. It takes place in Leeds on 1st and 2nd May. As well as showcasing its extensive portfolio of products, WES says it has committed to providing an expert team of problem-solving advisers for visitors to Stand B24. WES proposals and solutions director Bob Cook and business growth manager Fletcher Roche will be amongst those on hand to apply their wealth of knowledge and experience. w | www.wes.ltd.uk “Off the shelf” steam boilers Problem-solvers set for CHEMUK 2019 38 | Plant & Works Engineering www.pwemag.co.uk April 2019 Energy, the Environment & Water Burner manufacturer EOGB ENERGY PRODUCTS has announced it has launched a new service to design, develop and integrate bespoke burner controls for commercial heating systems and industrial processes. Working in partnership with customers to understand their production process and specific heat control requirements, EOGB says its engineers can develop a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) configured to individual requirements. These deliver a range of functions such as sequencing systems to control multiple boilers and furnace control systems to accurately regulate temperature. A graphical Human Machine Interface (HMI) can also be custom-designed to provide sophisticated management and a real-time view of system conditions and operational data, which engineers can access remotely from any internet connected device. t | 01480 477066 w | www.eogb.co.uk/bespoke-burner-controls/ Taking control of combustion efficiency
