Profas, the uvex safety group’s technology centre for hand protection, presented its Glove Expert System at the industrial health and safety trade fair Arbeitsschutz aktuell in Leipzig from 19 to 21 October 2010. This new, free service is based on a two-tier comprehensive chemicals database. In the publicly accessible section, users can match hazardous materials and protective gloves as well as access permeation lists. The additional expert mode, featuring individual accounts, offers registered users extended and tailored functions.

Glove Expert System is a comprehensive programme to analyse and optimise hand protection solutions at work. Individual hand protection plans that are drawn up together with the customer deliver optimal protection for users and at the same time document a high safety standard at work. “Through its Glove Expert System, Profas is providing a comprehensive service and advisory tool which offers functions that are presently unique in the market,” explains Franz Keller, Managing Director of PROFAS GmbH & Co. KG. Glove Expert System goes online in German and English at the end of October 2010 and can be accessed via the websites www.profas.de and www.profas.com.

DEHNventil ACI M: Standard-compliant Surge Protection in Industry

High demands are placed on the availability of switchgear in, for example, industrial plants, data centres, hospitals and large administrative buildings. This makes surge protection essential. At the same time, replacement of the surge protection module should not influence system availability. The new DEHNventil ACI M TNS 264 FM has no backup fuse and is flexible in terms of its application. In the event of a fault, the protection module is safely disconnected and can be quickly removed from the base part from either side or the front. The touch-safe design allows the protection module to be replaced without system downtime. The ACI technology employed also enables connection cross-sections of just 16 mm2. This facilitates installation and saves time.

HVI Light Plus for Lightning Protection Applications

When installing bare, uninsulated air-termination conductors on the roof, the separation distance to electrical and metal systems installed under the roof surface must be maintained in accordance with the current lightning protection standard DIN EN 62305-3. Cable installations, pipe systems or metal parts are frequently installed under the roofing in direct proximity to the air-termination system / down conductor, thus posing a proximity issue. The solution is isolated air-termination systems with high-voltage-resistant, insulated down conductors.
