Temperature Electronics (TEL), is aiming for European market expansion, with the launch of a Volumetric Controller designed to fit European narrow style fume cupboards, while offering a full range of control functions and features.
The Volumetric Controller ensures safety for the operator by monitoring the fume cupboard volume and providing local audible and visual alarms, and simultaneously reduces energy consumption and carbon footprint by up to 85% compared to a typical Constant Airflow Volume (CAV) fume cupboard.
It can be used on traditional bench or walk-in fume cupboards with vertical and combinational sashes.
The launch marks the next phase of the company’s expansion in the European market and follows negotiations with European distributors keen to offer their customers a product of this nature at a competitive price.
Director Richard Eady said: “Our variable airflow solutions already enjoy worldwide popularity, and it’s great to be able to provide the European market in particular with a solution that guarantees safety compliance while helping users to meet their carbon reduction targets.”
TEL’s Volumetric Controller features a bell mouth venturi restrictor to measure extract airflow volume and provides volumetric control based on either sash position, programmable fixed set points, or 0-10VDC analogue input.
It can also operate using third party orifice plates or other manufactured restrictor devices.
