UK’s ‘Gas Product of the Year’ Now Available in North America
Five instruments in one small handheld unit
Erlanger, KY (May 29, 2009) – Following the success of the Sprint V family of multi-function combustion analyzers in the United Kingdom, the product is now available in the United States, Canada and Mexico. The Sprint V range has been programmed to meet work safety regulations and legislation with country-specific calculations and language.
Designed to assist heating engineers in the safe installation, commissioning and servicing of furnaces and combustion systems, the Sprint V range provides five instruments in one small, convenient handheld unit: a combustion analyzer, a differential thermometer, a differential manometer, a gas escape detector and a carbon monoxide room safety monitor.
The range includes the basic Sprint V2 unit with the features mentioned above; the Sprint V3, which has all the functions of the V2 but is also Bluetooth™-enabled for rapid data transfer; the Sprint V4, which is like the V2 but has additional Nitric Oxides (NO and NOx) capability; and finally the Sprint V5, which has all the functions of the V4 and is also Bluetooth-enabled.
An important feature of the entire Sprint V range is ‘Smart Purge’ technology which clears potentially acidic gases from the unit. This helps save battery, pump and filter life, enables intelligent purging for switch-on and switch-off, and allows the purging of gas while other tests are being carried out.
The Sprint V range was recently named ‘Gas Safety Product of the Year’ at the UK’s annual gas industry awards ceremony. The UK’s leading gas utility company, British Gas, has ordered over 7,000 units as part of a six year supply and service contract.
