ADVECO AD: TOUGH, HIGHLY EFFICIENT
COMMERCIAL WATER HEATING
Commercial hot water and heating specialist
Adveco, announces the AD range. A new generation
of sleekly designed, modulating commercial floorstanding
gas condensing water heaters to be used
with a bu er for high demand semi-instantaneous
hot water applications in sports & leisure centres,
hotels, spas, schools, stadia, and large commercial
buildings.
With each water heater composed of one to
four 70 kW heat exchangers, the AD range o ers
appliances from 70kW up to 280 kW. This approach
optimises the supplied output (up to 160 litres/
minute) ensuring maximum e iciency when
providing DHW. Models with multiple integrated
heat exchangers o er load balancing for optimal
long-life operation and inbuilt redundancy guaranteeing continuity of service.
Tough and e icient, AD water heaters are all equipped with premix burners
made of Fecralloy metal fibre for large modulation range with excellent
functionality at extremely high temperatures. Using a premix burner ensures the
AD requires less gas, making it more cost-e ective, plus reducing harmful NOX
and CO emissions. The AD’s heat exchangers will also work in direct contact with
chlorinated mains water.
The AD range can be configured to operate in a cascade of up to eight water
heaters. The AD’s controller provides full temperature control and self-check
maintenance functions. The controller also accommodates 0-10 input, MODBUS
communication, and alarm output for seamless system integration.

NEW SOFTWARE MAKES LIGHT WORK OF
CONFIGURING EMERGENCY LIGHTING
Fire and life safety systems
manufacturer, Advanced, has
launched a new generation of
highly intuitive configuration
so ware for its LuxIntelligent
emergency light testing
solution.
Designed with installers and
commissioning technicians in
mind, Advanced’s ConfigTool
for LuxIntelligent allows users
to build both complex and straightforward emergency lighting systems with ease
and speed.
The benefits of the new ConfigTool extend far beyond easy programming of
the LuxIntelligent lighting panel itself, providing full remote control of menu
screen options via a ‘virtual terminal’ and allowing you to pre-plan entire systems
remotely, saving valuable time on site.
Favoured by technicians for its ease of use in commissioning large-scale,
networked systems covering multiple areas, floors and buildings, the new
ConfigTool o ers improved system visibility. Its updated interface provides an
at-a-glance view of all available loops and their remaining capacity. In addition,
devices can now be filtered by test group or zone location for quick review.
The new so ware also simplifies maintenance of existing systems and fully
customisable test schedules can
be set up with ease to ensure
BS 5266-1 compliance.
