Non-hazardous graffiti remover

With its P3 Scribex 400 series, Henkel has developed a safe and environmentally sound cleaning solution for removing graffiti from rail vehicles. Unlike standard products, these cleaners do not require hazard labeling. They contain no hazardous ingredients, have low flammability and a low content of volatile organic compounds (VOC).

This new generation of powerful graffiti removers for cleaning the exterior of trains also offers multiple benefits in terms of sustainability. Scribex 400 is based on raw materials that are fit for the future without any drawbacks regarding health and safety requirements. The new formulation contains no allergenizing or ecotoxicological ingredients such as NMP or terpenes. The low VOC content of  8.6 percent minimizes pollutant emissions in the workshops. P3 Scribex 400 products also offer advantages in terms of transport and storage: The product series has a high flash point of 78°C and therefore requires no hazard labeling.

The P3 Scribex 400 series removes all known synthetic and bitumen-based spray and dispersion paints from painted surfaces without attacking the surfaces themselves. Thanks to their low-odor solvent, the products are pleasant to use and ideal for applications in indoor areas. The cleaners already deliver full performance at temperatures as low as 5°C. Their special composition also prevents rapid evaporation in warm weather, which extends the working time. The products are available in three different viscosity grades to accommodate different kinds of application equipment. The graffiti remover is offered as a sprayable liquid and as a gel. After a short contact time of five to ten minutes, the cleaner is simply washed off with water.

Biasi Develops ActivA Unique Boiler Range Biasi UK has developed ActivA, a new range of high efficiency A rated condensing boilers boasting a unique heat exchanger. The launch of ActivA is further testimony to the company's commitment to strengthen its position in the UK domestic gas boiler market. At the heart of ActivA is a newly developed pre-mix condensing heat exchanger that is manufactured in a corrosion resistant, pressure moulded aluminium. Its sectional construction means it can be easily adjusted for different boiler outputs and its 'multipass' design ensures very low resistance for both combustion and water passage. This unique heat exchanger carries a five year guarantee. Designed to provide outstanding heating performance at an affordable price for almost all types of domestic properties, the compact range boasts some of the smallest boilers available - at just 700mm high x 400 wide and only 290mm deep - thereby allowing installation in cupboards.

Han® HC 250 high current contact

A Powerful Solution HARTING has developed the new Han® HC 250high current connector as a powerful interface that impresses by requiring little space, transmitting high current intensities and allowing flexible configuration of the number of poles. The HC 250 one-pole crimp module can be connected in various frame geometries to produce the required number of poles in a compact space – and in the existing Han® HPR housing. Technical details: - Rated current 250 A at a rated voltage of 2000 V - Termination cross-sections are: 35 mm2, 50 mm2 and 70 mm2 - Maximum four-pole interfaces in a size 24 B HPR housing, making it particularly suitable for motor connections - High quality plastic with good smoke and inflammability levels - Removal tool for simple installation and removal of the contacts and inserts - Confusion of a number of interfaces is reliably prevented by multiple coding options for the individual inserts The requirements in the railway industry are changing, as
