Monitor and control Indoor Air
Quality with a PPMonitor
PPM Technology Ltd manufactures a range of
IAQ monitoring instruments - the PPMonitor
range. PPMonitors are designed to give
a good visual representation of IAQ in a
building. A great number of units may be
networked together via the ZigBee wireless
mesh system to show precise changes in
concentration of selected IAQ parameters
over time for an entire building. Each unit can
monitor temperature and humidity as well as
up to 5 different IAQ target gases including
formaldehyde, carbon monoxide, carbon
dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, sulphur dioxide,
VOC’s, ozone, ammonia and many more.
PPMonitor software enables the data to be
viewed graphically, produce reports and
run schedules as well as alarm functions
and notifications for effective building
management.

A breath of fresh air – Aggregate
Industries makes headway
tackling air pollution at Horn
Lane Goods Yard, Acton
As part of an ongoing commitment to
improving air quality, Aggregate Industries
has successfully implemented a programme
to reduce airborne emissions at the
company’s Horn Lane Goods Yard, Acton
site in Ealing, London. Historically, high
concentrations of the particulate matter
PM10 - a pollutant linked to 40,000 early
deaths each year1 – were recorded at Horn
Lane, making it one of Britain’s most polluted
areas. With Ealing Council declaring the
borough an Air Quality Management Area
(AQMA), some of this pollution was down
to dust emissions coming from Horn Lane
Goods Yard, a narrow strip of land home
to a number of firms involved in waste
management and the movement of freight
by rail.

UK CONSTRUCTION WEEK 2018, NEC
The TRUMPF brand is synonymous with
quality and durability. The company
designs and manufactures power tools
and cordless-power tools that have been
specifically developed for construction,
aerospace, fabrication, engineering,
building envelope, roofing, HVAC and steel
products. From cutting and joining to
edge preparation, these portable machines
simplify day-to-day work on construction
sites or in workshops to increase
competitiveness by improving quality,
reducing costs and speeding up processing
time.
Clean cut composite
Centre-stage at UK Construction Week 2018
is a new nibbler that is the first of its kind
worldwide. The TRUMPF TruTool FCN 250
is designed to cut various fibre composite
materials up to 2.5mm thick. Unlike saws,
milling cutters and angle grinders that have
been traditionally used to cut this type of
material, the TRUMPF nibblers generate
minimal dust so personal protective
equipment is no longer essential. And by
comparison with other slitting processes,
the TruTool’s per-metre costs are as much
as 50% lower.
18V Li-ion technology
Also highlighted at the show will be
TRUMPF’s new, TruTool high-performing
cordless power tools. These models benefit
from 18V Li-ion technology, brushless,
no maintenance motors and a battery-
optimised aluminium gear head which,
in combination with other new features,
provide up to 60% longer run time after
each full charge.
A specialist in metal processing for nearly
a century, TRUMPF has combined its long-
term experience with the latest technology
to create this new range of power tools that
provides superior operational and economic
performance.
Alongside its conventional 10.8V products,
the new 18V models give fabricators,
builders and HVAC engineers an extended
choice that allows, for example, the cordless
cutting of sheets from 0.5mm to 2.5mm.
The TruTool 18V range provides a selection
of tools for welding and paint preparation,
cutting and fastening. The C200 and C250
slitting shears with chip clipper are perfect
for interior cuts, notching and curves
30
and the S250
shear provides
precise and
burr-free
cutting, even in the upside-down position.
For nibbling and profile nibbling, the N200
and PN 200 both provide easy cutting
without distortion, emission or sparks.
Seam lockers for closing Pittsburgh seams
on straight or curved ducts are available
for the first time as battery-powered tools
within this range which also includes the
TF350 power fastener for form-fitting,
corrosion-resistant joints used in the HVAC
sector in place of rivets or screws.
The latest additions to this 18V range are
three TruTool drill drivers; the TruTool
DD 1813 drill driver, the TruTool HD 1813
hammer drill and the TruTool ID 1861
impact driver.
All achieve high speeds despite their low
weight and small size and are equipped with
an LED light to illuminate the work area.
