When making such a significant investment into a company’s operations, it is smart business sense to have some protection built in.

That certainly is the true with Texas Instruments’ latest facility in Sugar Land, Texas.

TI, a worldwide semiconductor design and manufacturing company, along with an engineering team led by Project Manager Kenny Roland, P.E., with Houston-based DBR Engineering Consultants, went the whole nine yards in safeguarding the Sugar Land operation, which opened with a ribbon-cutting ceremony July 23, 2014.

Armstrong Fluid Technology introduces a circulator featuring Design Envelope technology. The COMPASS circulator helps contractors and wholesalers with easy selection, fast installation and broad performance capabilities for a wide variety of installations. It also helps homeowners reduce energy consumption and operating costs. In auto mode (one of eight operating modes), the circulator adjusts operating speed to match HVAC demand at any given moment. Over time, the circulator learns a system’s patterns of demand and appropriately adjusts output to further reduce energy usage.

Sensorless Pump Controller

Armstrong Fluid Technology's PSPC is designed to provide intelligent orchestration of the full pump array using the combined pump performance map. To do so, PSPC deploys a fundamentally different pump staging concept called "best efficiency staging," which constantly evaluates the optimal number of operating pumps and their ideal speeds against the pressure and flow requirements of the system. This allows the operator to control overall pumping efficiency across a parallel pumping configuration at any given time.

Andrew Harrop on how new approaches to the design of heating systems are making it easier for schools save energy and money

Replacing ageing school boiler plant can be daunting. Heating systems can only feasibly be replaced when the site does not require heating or a continuous water supply. In addition, projects often have to be squeezed into the summer vacation to avoid traffic, disruption and the presence of contractors during term-time. This small window of opportunity can create inconvenience and cost. As summer is the busiest time for the building industry it can be difficult to guarantee availability of contractors for the designated weeks. Many independent schools have additional challenges relating to the architectural heritage of their school buildings. Access can be problematic and something as basic as the size of doorways can present problems when removing the old boiler or positioning its replacement.
