NEW TDP DSP Electronic pressure switch – comfortable pump control thanks to integrated mains plug

Of course you can walk to your garden or deep-well pump and turn it on by hand. And back again to turn it off. And then back again. And back again. Or you can replace this life-sapping back and forth with the convenient automatic pump control using the TDP DSP electronic pressure switch. The practical plug & play solution that controls the water delivery of garden pumps, deep well pumps, centrifugal pumps and water pumps virtually independently. And particularly convenient thanks to the integrated mains plug.

NEW TDP DS Electronic pressure switch – Automatic control of pumps without their own plug

The Problem: Often, deep well pumps, garden pumps, centrifugal pumps or water pumps do not have their own power plug – and therefore do not have the possibility to control water delivery automatically.  The solution: Trotec’s electronic pressure switch TDP DS offers a technical alternative that is as reliable as it is sophisticated. The pressure switch is simply installed between the pump and the connected consumer – and the pumping process runs automatically without the need for manual switching on and off.

Coronavirus: TAC 3000 professional air purifier – for hygiene-sensitive areas up to 28 m² or 70 m³

The TAC 3000 professional air purifier enables such a variable range of applications as no other air purifier on the market can offer at present: From virus filtering in hygiene-sensitive areas to clean room environments. And of course at ‘standard construction sites’ for asbestos abatements, for example and all that with just one device! This application range is made possible by the use of the HEPA filter class H14 and by the unique Vario-shift function, thanks to which the filter chain can be flexibly configured with either terminal fan or HEPA filter.

Coronavirus: TAC 1500 / 1500 S professional air purifiers for hygiene-sensitive areas up to 14 m² or 35 m³

Air purity: This is what the TAC 1500 / 1500 S ensure for virus filtering in all hygiene-sensitive areas and even in cleanroom environments. The devices can be equipped with class 14 high-performance filters. Moreover, the TAC 1500 enables an extremely variable range of applications thanks to the unique Vario-shift function. With this function, the positions of the ventilator and HEPA unit can be changed easily so that you can align the filter chains in the required sequence at any time for cleanroom to standard applications.

Is it possible to measure fever with industrial pyrometers (infrared thermometers)?

Industrial pyrometers are not approved for human diagnostic purposes, but in many cases they are suitable for practical pre-screening, e.g. in the case of epidemic disease distributions such as those currently prevalent in many countries owing to COVID-19

Coronavirus: Heat, cold, humidity – how do viruses survive?

Germany’s leading virologists analyse the new threat posed by the novel corona virus SARS-CoV-2 on a daily basis. How much longer will the virus have us in its grip, which is getting tighter every day? Or will it virtually disappear of its own accord once temperatures start rising sharply? Virologist Thomas Pietschmann explains why he is counting on the cool and mostly dry winter days coming to an end soon. Because both – cold and bone dry air – are the basic prerequisite for viruses to be able to multiply rapidly.

Coronavirus: Professional air purifier TAC 750 E with HEPA H14 filter – for effective virus filtering

The most important news first: the TAC 750 E can now be equipped with the high performance filter of class H14 for effective virus filtering. This makes the extremely mobile device an effective solution for air purification in smaller rooms – and of course still for smaller renovation areas – even under the conditions of the current corona crisis. Because the lightest professional air purifier in its class, weighing only 6 kilograms, fits into any car boot and can therefore be easily transported from one air purification operation to the next.

Coronavirus: Risk of infection increases with dry office air – Tips for optimum humidity

Anyone who does not work at from home in home office and still has to go to the office, should reduce the increased risk of infection by corona viruses. It is important to know that a humidity level of just 50% significantly reduces the risk of inhaling viruses that have been coughed up. The following tips on optimum air humidity will show you how you can precisely determine the relative humidity of the air, how you can successfully protect yourself against infection and why you should keep an eye on the room temperature.

Coronavirus: Risk of infection depending on weather and humidity?

Just in time before the temperatures fall again, the German Weather Service (the DWD) explains the connection between the cold season and decreasing air humidity. Because warmer air can absorb significantly more water vapour than cold air, say DWD meteorologists, the absolute humidity in the winter months is significantly lower than in summer. However, according to scientific findings, excessively dry air is one of the main reasons why more people become infected with viruses during the hotter months.

Coronavirus: Destruction of viruses with hot air

In addition to the previously known measures for chemical disinfection by means of spray or wipe disinfection, there is also the rather less known but effective thermal disinfection. This is the thermal treatment of room air to inactivate viruses or disinfect surfaces. Here, the fact that viruses such as the influenza or corona virus (SARS-CoV-2 / Covid-19) die within 15-30 minutes at temperatures of 56 °C is important.
