PRODUCTS | SERVICES Hamworthy meets high demand for high-output boilers Hamworthy Heating has extended its range of Varmax floor-standing condensing boilers to now go up to 637kW output from a single boiler, with the ability to cascade multiple boilers to match high-demand heating projects. A popular choice for heat networks because of its wider differential temperatures, the Varmax boiler is not dependent on system flow for safe operation. Thanks to an internal circulation loop and shunt pump, the boiler does not need to be installed in a traditional primary circuit, removing the need to buy and install ancillary equipment, such as a low-loss header and pumps. This only saves time and money, and reduces the space required in the plantroom.

Under the scheme, running until 31 March 2021, qualifying installers can claim back 800 after the successful installation of five Panasonic Aquarea A2W heat pumps with a Smart Cloud Controller. In a concurrent promotion, homeowners replacing oil-fired, LPG, electric or mains gas boilers will be able to claim up to 600 via the Green Homes Cashback Scheme (conditions apply). Visit www.aircon.panasonic.eu/GB_en/greenhomes and www.aircon.panasonic.eu Condair is offering a new CPD seminar on dehumidification and drying psychrometrics. The 45-minute presentation given online via a virtual meeting platform, such as Teams or Zoom includes training on the principles of operation for both desiccant and condensing dehumidifiers, correctly selecting and sizing a dehumidification system, and the psychrometric processes behind drying. Developed specifically for mechanical engineers and consultants, the training has been approved by CIBSE, so attendees will receive CIBSE points towards their CPD record.

Bend-insensitive, single-mode fibres are the only fibres capable of securing the whole fibre spectrum, especially at the longer wavelengths, by minimising losses linked to macro and micro bends. These fibres enable the development of extreme fibre count and reduced diameter cabling solutions, to help meet todays demand for the highest bandwidth capacity in duct installations.
