While several key new products were spotlighted for the first time in Europe, TFS&BP also used Interschutz to announce that its SKUM brand, which in the past 75 years has become a world leader in foam systems hardware, is to add the full range of TOWALEX foam concentrates to its portfolio to transform the brand into a truly end-to-end solutions provider for commercial and industrial markets. It also unveiled plans to launch a number of new SKUM concentrates later in the year that will make significant changes to the global foam concentrate landscape. These new leading-edge SKUM foam concentrates will include the SKUM TOWALEX 3x3AP that has been described as a truly viable alternative to fluorine-based and fluorine-free based foam concentrates. It is a non-fluorine product based on novel performance chemicals providing high performance at minimal environmental impact and low toxicity. Other new SKUM foam concentrates are the SKUM TOWALEX ARC 1×1 concentrate that can be used with any type of discharge equipment without having to resort to any modifications, and the new detergent-based, UL-listed METEOR P+ high-expansion foam concentrate. Both are suitable to fight Class A and Class B [Class B and Class C in Europe, Australia and Asia] fires. The new products on show at Interschutz also included the TYCO FIRE PRODUCTS Ultra Low Flow [ULF] AQUAMIST watermist system, the innovative G-PRESS Piping System – the latest enhancement to the extensive GRINNELL grooved piping products offering – and the ANSUL JET-X High-Expansion Foam Generator. They were on show alongside a broad cross section of other Tyco top-performing water-based, foam and chemical fire suppression solutions, including the market leading HYGOOD SAPPHIRE environmentally acceptable and sustainable fire suppression system. The Tyco stand also featured the latest SKUM foam hardware and proportioning systems. The new TYCO ULF AQUAMIST suppression system is being heralded as a complete fire protection solution, with several significant installer and end user benefits Compared with other watermist systems, it uses less water more effectively, reduces pipe sizes, cuts installation costs and minimises clean-up and water damage. The system offers the ease, simplicity, dependability and high-performance fire suppression of conventional sprinkler systems with the added benefit of using nearly 70 percent less water. TYCO ULF AQUAMIST utilises small-droplet water technology without the high water pressures and exotic components required by some watermist systems. GRINNELL G-PRESS Piping System brings a number of innovative features that, until now, have not been available for sprinkler fire protection installations and satisfies the market’s growing demand for quicker, more precise sprinkler pipe installation and the increasing expectation of improved site safety and security. The system requires only a press tool to complete the installation, and takes up far less space than traditional threaded, welded or flanged systems. Another bonus is that it is up to 50 percent lighter when compared with traditional threaded piping systems. The ANSUL JET-X High-Expansion Foam Generator requires only a small amount of water to generate large quantities of expanded foam. In addition to minimising the damage to the structure or its contents, this extremely low water content means that high-expansion foams can be used in and around many types of electrical equipment. The potential for hazardous run-off is also significantly reduced. It is water motor powered and does not require electrical power.

Draka UK, one of Britain’s premier cable manufacturers, has rebranded its market leading… Draka UK, one of Britain’s premier cable manufacturers, has rebranded its market leading Firetuf range of 0HLS halogen-free fire performance cables. The range, which comprises nine cable designs, is used extensively for critical life and asset safety installations such as fire detection and alarm systems, emergency lighting, CCTV and transmission circuits, and has been rebranded as the FT range. The decision, according to Mark Froggatt, Draka’s marketing Services Manager, was taken following far-reaching discussions with route-to-market partners and fire engineers with the aim of simplifying cable selection, specifying and ordering. In each case, the letters FT has a suffix that more clearly defines the use, properties or key characteristic of the particular cable. The result is branding that is more easily understood and remembered. For example, Firetuf Powerplus is replaced by FTP120, indicating the cable’s achieving of the maximum 120-minute rating when subjected to the integrated testing of BS 8491:2008 [Method for assessment of fire integrity of large diameter power cables for use as components for smoke and heat control systems and certain other active fire safety systems].

Vimpex has launched a new range of control panels for its popular Hydrosense… Vimpex has launched a new range of control panels for its popular Hydrosense Water Leakage Detection System. Hydrosense is designed to protect areas where water leakage could seriously damage electrical, communication and computer networks by quickly detecting the leak and raising an alarm. The system continuously monitors vulnerable areas and can be interfaced to other fire, security and safety systems to provide total protection. Hydrosense can be easily installed by specialist contractors working in the electrical, fire and security industries and is suited to a wide range of applications including HVAC, sprinkler systems and water-cooled plant. The new Hydrosense panels offer advanced features with easier installation and programming. The attractive and unobtrusive panels are available in 2 to 48 zone versions with a variety of enclosures and mounting options. Custom built panels are also available. The control panels are supported by repeaters, ancillary PCB’s and mimics. The new Matrix mimic panel can be connected to any number of Hydrosense control panels and provides a clear, geographical indication of alarm activation enabling speedy identification of the source of an alarm. All alarm circuits are fully monitored and remote “Water Alarm” lamp units are available to help quickly isolate the source of the alarm. Hydrosense offers the flexibility of two methods of water detection – probes and Hydrowire. Probes are either floor mounted with an adjustable height setting or fitted to an AC drip tray. The flexible Hydrowire detection cable is available in 5m and 10m lengths and can monitor large areas. A small amount of water coming into contact with Hydrowire is absorbed by capillary action and triggers an alarm. A system incorporating probes and Hydrowire can meet even the most demanding applications.

Packexe SMASH is a time critical glass manage Packexe SMASH is a time critical glass management product used within the fire & rescue industry for extrication at road traffic collisions. It supports the quick and easy rescue of the passengers as the film reduces the risk of the glass breaking, also allowing fire fighters to remove the glass quickly and in one piece. Packexe SMASH is going from strength to strength and the most recent show, Interschutz 2010 turned out to be an extremely successful exhibition for them. The fire and rescue exhibition takes place every five years in Germany and this year it had 1350 exhibitors from 46 countries. The show experienced a heat wave with temperatures in Leipzig reaching 34°C in the shade! However, visitors still ventured to the stands and visitor statistics were predicted to total a dramatic 125,000. Packexe SMASH kick started the show with daily live demonstrations in the outside showground. Fire Fighters from Leipzig used Packexe SMASH during a full extrication exercise, showing Packexe SMASH’s performance under several different scenarios including wet conditions. The demonstrators showed how glass can be left in place during extrication or broken and removed in one piece with the application of Packexe SMASH. Packexe were pleased to welcome friends from extrication challenges across the world onto the stand alongside new enquiries from throughout Europe, North America, South America, Australasia, Africa the Far East and Asia. Interest in the Packexe SMASH stand not only came from fire fighters and distributors from a across the globe but also television crews interested in the latest innovation.

Relief organisations rely on high-tech with m Mobile water supply: Relief organisations rely on high-tech with membrane technology Leipzig / Celle June 9, 2010 – When the regular drinking water supply is no longer provided, due to natural disasters or technical problems, for instance, mobile water treatment plants are applied by disaster control organisations all around the world – also in Germany. At the Interschutz trade show, the Berkefeld water technology company presents the TWA 15 UF, which is a new system that is fitted with the latest process technology and fulfils the high demands placed on drinking water treatment in Germany. Additionally, a so-called bladdertank, a flexible container, which is used for the storage or temporary storage of drinking water. Mobile water treatment with ceramic membrane The TWA 15 UF plant, which has been newly developed with the help of the Technisches Hilfswerk (THW – Federal Agency for Technical Relief), has already proven its high per-formance in field operations. The plant was last used in the Wetterau region, to the north of Frankfurt, when, at the end of February, when the regular drinking water supply had to be temporarily closed down, which was due to microbiological contamination of the pipeline bound drinking water supply. Apparently, due to the heavy rainfall and snow melting, the near surface groundwater was contaminated to such an extent that the drinking water supply for around 1,200 residents had to be discontinued as a safety measure. A TWA 15 UF was transported to the site, set up and put into operation by the THW during the first night of outage. The plant produces 11,000 litres of clean drinking water per hour, which is first used to flush the pipeline network clean, then as a drinking water supply for human consumption. Thus, the plant provided a supply of clean drinking water for around five weeks, until an additional, stationary treatment could be performed with the aid of a UFlex ultrafiltration system in the local water treatment facility – also provided by Berkefeld, a subsidiary of Veolia Water Solutions & Technologies. The TWA 15 UF mobile water treatment plant that was temporarily applied is con-structed in a modular design, so that is can be easily adapted to suit the given quality of the untreated water by an appropriate combination of the respectively required process steps. Depending on the combination of the modules, the system provides between 5 and 15 cubic metres of clean water per hour. The plant is not only designed for use around the world, but also fulfils the strict KTW / DVGW – W 270 regulations, thus, it is also approved for use in the drinking water supply in Germany. The plant is equipped with multiple germ barriers. The core piece is a newly developed ceramic ultrafiltration membrane. It is designed as a monolith block and is, thus, particularly robust. In addition to this membrane process, the overall system includes, among other things, pre-filtration with disc filters, flocculation and adsorption, disinfection with UV light, depot chlorination, as well as drinking water storage and distribution. The plant fits in the freight hold of practically any common airliner and can be easily loaded onto and transported by lorry. Safe storage of drinking water in bladdertanks In addition to the treatment, the correct storage and distribution also play an impor-tant part in water supply in cases of crisis. The so-called bladdertanks, which Berkefeld presents at the Interschutz, are suitable for correct storage or temporary storage of untreated water or drinking water. The tanks hold between 0.5 m³ and 20 m³, and, if required, are also available in other sizes up to 150 m³. The particular advantage: These closed foil tanks are equipped with special zips, which facilitate easy opening and cleaning of the containers. This enables the hygienically safe storage of the treated water. The mobile, collapsible containers can be used anywhere, even in uneven terrain. The containers can be safely fastened down on lorries or trailers with the aid of suitable clamping gear. Due to the fact that the Berkefeld bladdertanks are in accordance with the German KTW regulations, they are approved for use in the drinking water supply in Germany. Corporate Profile: Berkefeld is part of Veolia Water Solutions & Technologies, a subsidiary of Veolia Water, which is a leading design & build company and a specialized provider of technological solutions in water treatment.
