We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "HVAC",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Processingtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Flexible drives now have LonWorks communications from
Control Techniques, which we summarised at the time by saying "Control Techniques, part of Emerson Industrial Automation, has launched its 21st option module to provide the added functionality of LonWorks communications to their range of AC
drives".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release The low power AC drive market in India from
ARC Advisory Group: "Indian economic expansion, propelled by the growing manufacturing sector, is fuelling the low power AC drive market in India to grow at 15% from the current USD150M level of 2006".
In January 2008, we covered the news from Fluke (UK)
concerning its Ti25 and Ti10
- take a look at Thermal imagers for industrial troubleshooting
which says: "The new Fluke Ti25 and Ti10 thermal imagers offer a complete, affordable solution for industrial and electrical troubleshooting and maintenance applications in a rugged and reliable package".
Take a look also at the news release from Fluke (UK), Total temperature measurement solution,
as well as Flexibility in temperature measurement from Baumer from Baumer Group,
and Hoffer Saddle Turbine series flowmeters from Hoffer Flow Controls.
