ARI-Armaturen UK Ltd will once again be exhibiting at the Healthcare Estates Exhibition (stand E27) this year, where they will proudly present a range of economical solutions for healthcare estates and facilities. Specialising in control, isolation, safety and steam trapping, ARI-Armaturen offers an impressive portfolio of valves, steam traps and engineered systems.
Whether it’s providing valves for HVAC or systems for heating and hot water, ARI-Armaturen works with many hospitals over the UK and continues to increase its affiliation with healthcare. With sites under pressure to meet demanding targets, cut emissions and reduce spend, products which promote efficiency, reliability and durability are becoming more and more important to this industry.
ARI-Armaturen will display the ENCOsys – a proficient heating and hot water system which can offer considerable savings in energy and cost when compared to more traditional systems such as shell and tube calorifiers. The ENCOsys is a compact, low maintenance steam-to-water plate heat exchanger designed to provide hot water instantaneously up to 2100kW. The clever design means there is no need for a water storage vessel, which can be a potential breeding place for Legionella and other bacteria. Sites with these units installed benefit from improvements to operating efficiency with reduced heat loss from equipment, improved temperature control as well as better thermal efficiency all resulting in vast improvements to operation efficiency and energy savings. One of the most significant savings however, is that (unlike shell and tube heat exchangers) the ENCOsys does not need to be stripped down for insurance inspections resulting in further cost savings and dramatically reduced health and safety risks associated with this work.
The CONA Control will be another product featuring on stand E27 which helps to optimise energy efficiency. This is a smart device designed to test all onsite steam traps and eliminate unnecessary steam/energy loss. With reports showing that around 22% of steam that leaves boilers in a plant is lost via leaking traps and that a 3mm orifice under a pressure of 7 bar/100 psi can result in the loss of 25 tonnes of steam per annum, the CONA Control is a great tool for keeping boiler plant costs down, improving efficiency and reducing the risk of safety hazards caused by blockages in a steam system.
The ZETRIX premium triple offset isolation valve will be set up as a double block and bleed isolation. Boasting zero leakage and emissions, the ZETRIX provides guaranteed isolation (conforming to leakage rate A in accordance with DIN EN 12266-1) and is suitable for liquids, gases and vapours. The block and bleed system offers the only proved isolation, in accordance with HSE guidance 253 (Safe Isolation of Plant and Equipment) which states that double block and bleed is greatest in the hierarchy of mechanical security for isolation methods.
A range of impressive valves and steam traps promoting efficiency and safety will also be on display.
