In Australia regulations exist which stipulate the maximum force required to open a door. This is particularly important for improving accessibility for wheel chair users, older persons and anyone with an injury. When the standard was drafted in 2009 it stated the maximum forces required to open as below: For doors other than fire doors and smoke doors where a door closer is fitted, the force required to operate the door shall not exceed the following: (i) To initially open the door .......................................................................... 20 N. (ii) To swing the door

We have been asked if the Lutron CM-6010SD clamp meter can log current & voltage simultaneously to the SD card? To find out the question we ran a test. We found that the data logger only logs one measurement at a time. If you are measuring DC voltage, it logs to a file named " dcvsxxx" and if you are measuring DC current, it logs to a file called " dcaxxx", and so on. If you want to log both voltage and current simultaneously, you will need to use a power meter such as the Lutron DW-6093. However, this is AC only, so it will not suit every application. If you have any questions about one of

The Lutron YK-23RP is a low-cost Oxidation Reduction Potential (ORP) Meter, which is an ideal solution for small-scale breweries and keen microbrewers. Typically, breweries will oxygenate their wort with sterile air after it has cooled off to increase oxygen solubility and reduce wort oxidation. Some may introduce air while the wort is hot to sterilise the air, but this runs the risk of oxidising off flavours in the beer, leaving a stale, garlicky taste. The Lutron YK-23RP can be used to measure the level of oxidation/reduction to ensure that the flavour of the beer is not compromised

A noise risk assessment should be carried out when workers and others may be exposed to excessive noise levels.  A person conducting a business must ensure that workers are not exposed to noise that exceeds the exposure standard for noise. The exposure standard for noise is defined in Part 4.1 Noise of the  Work Health and Safety Regulation 2011 as LAeq,8h of 85 dB(A) or an LC,peak of 140 dB(C). To assess noise levels a sound level meter (SLM) or noise dose meter (NDM) should be used. These meters are designed to measure a frequency-weighted and time-weighted value of the sound pressure level

The Lutron CC-421 is a great low cost voltage and current meter and calibration tool for service or installation engineers, who need to check industrial sensors and transmitters. As one user told us; “It's a really useful meter that is fairly inexpensive”. So, if you accidentally drop it into a sewer tank, you won't weep. You'll hop online and order another one. Featuring a clear 3 LCD display, the Lutron CC-421 voltage & current meter is a fairly straight forward and simple device to use. It doesn't have some of the advanced features seen on more expensive devices, but then again if you are

The Lutron DW-6090A is a cost effective yet economic power analyser, which is suitable for analysing power factor in many different applications. Measurements of up to 6000 Watts can be taken directly. However, using a clamp meter will allow you to make measurements of up to 1MW. The DW-6090A will give you a true RMS reading for both sine and non-sine waves. FIRST IMPRESSIONS The Lutron DW-6090A comes complete with a durable bench type plastic case with a carrying handle for use on site. The large LCD multi-display unit provides adequate font size making it easy to see the simultaneous display

Indoor air quality (IAQ) can be affected by gases (including carbon monoxide, radon, volatile organic compounds), particulates, microbial contaminants (mould, bacteria), or any mass or energy stressor that can induce adverse health conditions.Typical IAQ measurements include relative humidity, temperature, carbon dioxide, PM 2.5, atmospheric pressure, the presence of VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) plus many more variables. If one or more of these variables are outside the recommended range, an overall air quality score can be calculated that indicates there is a problem with the quality of

ADM stocks two different types of digital tachometer. Both tachometers have a low cost and can be purchased online for added convenience.The Lutron DT-2236 and DT-1236L are photo / contact tachometers. Lutron DT-2236 The Lutron DT-2236 is a multi-function tachometer, combining photo tachometer functionality (RPM) with contact tachometer operation (RPM,m/min., ft/min.). You enjoy a wide measuring range from 0.5 to 100,000 RPM. The last value/max. value/min. reading is automatically stored in the tachometer’s memory and can be recalled by pressing the MEMORY CALL button. The high visibility

The Lutron FT-967 is a simple to use forehead thermometer. It is ideal for when you want to gauge if a visitor to your premises or an employee may have a fever.The measurement range is 34.0°C to 43.0°C and this thermometer can quickly determine if anybody has an abnormally high body temperature. It is very easy to use. The FT-967 has a pistol grip. You hold the thermometer with one hand 2-5cm from the forehead. Press the trigger and hold until you hear a beep. The reading will be shown on the LCD display. There is a hold function if you want to freeze this reading on the display until you are
