Rosenberg USA Introduces New Constant Pressure/Constant Airflow Models of ECOFIT Double-Inlet Centrifugal Fans
Rosenberg USA has introduced six new double inlet Ecofit forward-curved centrifugal blowers with speed-controllable EC motors. The new blowers, designated GDSuG9 146x188, include constant pressure, constant airflow and standard pressure/airflow models. Constant pressure and constant airflow blowers can provide simple solutions to common air movement problems.
Constant pressure blowers automatically adjust speed to maintain the same pressure at varying airflow conditions. This makes them ideal for ducted applications in which the opening or closing of duct vents could significantly impact pressures within the system.
Constant airflow models maintain the same airflow at varying pressure, such as filtered applications. Filter elements will change in resistance to airflow over time as they become obstructed by dirt and dust. The new blowers’ electronics will detect this and increase motor power to maintain the proper level of airflow performance.
The new 146-mm x 188-mm blowers are powered by 150W electronically commutated (EC) motors in both 120 and 230 volt AC input, 50/60 Hz. EC motors.

Portable Pressure & Temperature Recorders
Palmer Instruments Inc. has introduced new portable pressure and temperature recorders housed in High Performance Pelican™Brand cases. Designed for use in the harshest of outdoor environments, the Pelican™case housing provides a watertight, crush-proof, dust-proof enclosure with Heavy Duty Deflector Ribs for extra protection from shocks and impacts. Stainless Steel padlock protectors provide extra strength and security when locking for tamper resistance. Use either of the two comfortable rubber over-molded handles to move the recorder between job sites. Feet are adjustable for placement on uneven surfaces and rubberized to prevent slippage. Case includes pressure equalization valve to release built-up air pressure while keeping out water.
Pelican™Case recorders are available with a plexiglass window or solid door. Solid door models are IP67 rated, so charts stay dry regardless of the weather, and you can store spare pens and batteries in the convenient holder mounted inside the door.

Rinnai Introduces Demand Duo™ Commercial Hybrid System
Rinnai has introduced the Demand Duo™, a commercial hybrid water heating system that combines highly efficient heat exchanger technologies from Rinnai’s recently launched 199-BTU, Energy Star-certified C199 condensing commercial tankless water heaters with a durable 119-gallon tank designed to handle the demands of businesses. With a system that produces more hot water in the first hour than traditional commercial systems, it has a six-year heat exchanger and tank warranty and is built for longevity and saves energy.
The Demand Duo provides a direct replacement for traditional standard and high efficiency commercial tanks and features direct vent, common venting options and single-unit/common vent room-air ability that can use the building’s existing vertical vent penetration, eliminating the need to core additional holes in walls and roofs to allow for external ventilation, which can lead to leaks.
