From 1st January 2022, a new regulation will impose Ecodesign requirements for solid fuel local space heaters. Regulation (EU) 2015/1185 24/5/2015 describes the requirements which will harmonise energy consumption, particulate matter (PM), organic gaseous compounds (OGC), carbon monoxide (CO) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) emission requirements for solid fuel local space
Signal Group (UK), the gas analyser manufacturer, has announced the launch of a new flexible range of service contracts, which enable customers to determine the level of service required. “No two companies are the same,” explains Signal Group Service Manager Roy Kinslow, “so it makes sense for us to offer
Signal Group (UK) has announced the launch of a new, highly innovative, portable gas analyser, the SOLAR XPLORE. One of the company’s core technologies is Flame Ionisation Detection (FID) for the measurement of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and the new instrument brings the unique advantages of the latest fixed analysers
Signal Group, the UK gas analyser manufacturer, has seen a growth in demand for reference-grade analysers that are able to differentiate between total VOCs (volatile organic compounds) and Non-Methane VOCs (NMVOCs). “This demand is largely driven by domestic regulatory requirements, where countries are seeking to control emissions of both pollutants
Calibration is the process of establishing the relationship between the output of a measurement and a known input. In common with most measuring instruments, gas analysers require calibration following installation, and then at regular intervals to check that they are performing to specification. Regular zero and span checks (known inputs)
Signal Group, the UK gas analyser manufacturer, will provide a virtual exhibition booth at this year’s Air Quality and Emissions show, AQE 2021. The company is well known for its expertise in reference gas analysers employing Flame Ionisation (FID), Chemiluminescence (CLD) and Non-Dispersive InfraRed (NDIR), but the Signal Group’s Stephane
Increasing political action on Climate Change is prompting a new requirement for process operators to improve the accuracy and reliability of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions monitoring. To meet this requirement, Stephane Canadas from UK gas analyser manufacturer Signal Group is urging the operators of combustion equipment, such as boilers and
‘Thinking out of the box’ is usually a phrase that R&D engineers use as a metaphor for looking at a challenge from a different perspective, but at Signal Group (UK), the technology development team have taken the phrase to a new level. Following an intensive development program, the company has
Governments from around the world have implemented environmental regulations to reduce the emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from industrial processes. For example, according to the European Solvents Industry Group, total VOC emissions in the EU have been reduced by more than 60% since 1990. With over 40 years of
In the following article we outline the environmental and health issues associated with NOx, and emphasise the importance of monitoring nitrogen oxides. We also describe the factors affecting the choice of measurement technology, and explain some of the issues that should be addressed by chemiluminescence analysers. Download the full Technical
Signal Group’s portable heated FID VOC analyser, the S4 SOLAR XPLORE, has made it to the finals of the Instrumentation Excellence Awards, and a team from Signal will be donning their red-carpet attire for a glittering award ceremony that will take place at the Grand Connaught Rooms in London on
Intriguingly, the Signal Group stand will be staffed by gas analysis experts wearing T-shirts saying ‘Ask me about MCERTS!’ It’s too early to say more, but anyone interested in VOC emissions monitoring should head for Stand-L5…if only to try out the detachable tablets. With a heavy focus on technology development,
Researchers at the University of Sheffield are exploring new exhaust aftertreatment systems for heavy-duty engines capable of running on clean, zero-carbon fuels. This 4-year project is funded by an EPSRC grant and supported by the industrial partner Eminox. The project is led by Bill Nimmo, Professor of Energy Engineering and
