DIGI-LINE ELECTRIC RADIATORS –
THE SMART CHOICE FOR ENERGY MANAGEMENT WISKA LAUNCHES THE TKS 32, A MULTIPLE CABLE ENTRY
SOLUTION THAT IS HELPING TO EASE INSTALLATION
The Digi-Line range of electric radiators from
Electrorad feature unique independent double
panel control, built-in energy monitoring (on
the TouchE3 option), and virtual open window
sensors, making Digi-Line an effi cient and easy to
control alternative to traditional central heating. It
is also an ideal replacement for outdated storage
heaters and panel heaters.
Unlike competitor models that only feature
a single panel, Digi-Line radiators are available with two heating panels, meaning
considerably more heat power can be produced. Also, the two heat panels can
operate separately from each other to ensure the most effi cient use of energy and
maximum comfort.
All Digi-Line radiators also incorporate virtual open window sensors that will
automatically respond accordingly should a window be opened. The radiator will
sense a draft and stop heating until the window has been closed.
Also key to its energy management capabilities is an energy monitor that is
built-in to Digi-Line’s Wi-Fi hub (TouchE3) to enable wireless control and direct
management of home heating from anywhere in the world. Wiska has drawn upon its 98 years of expertise in cable entry systems to develop a
new type of cable entry. The TKS 32.
The TKS 32 is a new and innovative solution that is exciting contractors across
the UK. The TKS 32 is a membrane with four entries giving IP66 protection and cable
retention (according to EN62444) for quick and easy installation.
Simply push the TKS 32 into the unit and insert
cable through the membrane to complete
installation. It is suitable for 16 or
25mm tails and 10 or 16mm earth.
Ideal for both internal and
external applications, the TKS 32
is glow wire tested to 960°C. The
sleek low profi le design allows
for a fl ush fi tting helping to save
on space, and with no additional
locknut required you also save on
time and money too.

CABLE COMPANION – PULLING CABLE WITHOUT THE SNAGS
SWA’s patented new Cable

direction or to any height. Alternatively, the dispenser can be locked in one position.
Cable Companion features a sturdy and stable fl oor standing frame, but the range also
includes a special bracket for clamping the dispenser to joists, so it’s ideal for use in lofts, too.
Ca ble Companion easily folds away fl at, making it convenient to transport and store.

TRIDONIC LAUNCHES DEVICECONFIGURATOR SOFTWARE
FOR EASY CONFIGURATION OF LUMINAIRES
Tridonic has launched deviceConfi gurator, new software that allows customers to
edit driver settings whilst reducing programming errors.
The software can confi gure both Tridonic’s Premium and Excite drivers and
supports the DALI USB interface and the ready2mains programmer. The system has
many advantages which include:
Optimised work processes – deviceConfi gurator ensures that production
personnel can write the correct driver settings easily and precisely into the
luminaire. This allows the new tool to make your confi guration processes more
effi cient during production.
Error reduction – A traffi c light function provides personnel with direct feedback
on confi guration status, allowing them to verify the work step. In addition, secure
driver identifi cation is guaranteed through barcode scanning. DALI also provides
optional verifi cation of the written parameters.
Security – Password protection for scripts,
preventing them from being altered during
production. This provides an additional layer of
protection for the correct confi guration.
DeviceConfi gurator is available for free
