We are very pleased to announce that Union Instruments GmbH will be exhibiting at #RoKaTech this year. The international trade fair for pipe and sewer technology will take place from 09.05.2023 to 12.05.2023 in Kassel, Germany. As a leading provider of innovative leak testing solutions, we would like to take this opportunity to present our latest developments and products for the wastewater and pipe rehabilitation industry.

 On site, we will present our testing equipment technology for the applications:

- Leak testing according to DIN EN 1610, DWA-A 139 & DWA-M 149-6
- Fully automatic pressure testing according to DIN EN 805 & DVGW W 400-2
 
Visit us in hall 3 at booth A10 and inform yourself about the various fields of application!

Emergency care in Germany has been an emergency for years. The stress limits of the system have become increasingly apparent, especially in recent months.

For more than 50 years, the Björn Steiger Foundation has been successfully working to continuously improve emergency care in Germany. Many things that seem self-evident in today's emergency services were initiated by the Björn Steiger Foundation.

One of the foundation's initiatives is the "Felix" baby emergency ambulance, which is used for the safe and gentle transport of sick infants and premature babies. "Felix" contains everything the little patients need on the way to the hospital - with hospital-level care quality even during the journey.

UNION Instruments GmbH has supported the initiative every year since 2014 with a sponsorship, thus promoting life-critical transport for the rescue of sick newborns and premature babies.

The trade journal PROCESS HEAT is the leading medium for industrial thermoprocess technology, industrial furnace construction and heat treatment. The editorial team publishes technical articles and application reports by renowned authors in a total of 8 issues per year, thus providing comprehensive decision support for engineers and managers across the entire field of thermoprocess technology.

UNION Instruments had the opportunity to place a technical article in the 01/2023 issue. The issue focuses on the topics of digitalization - measurement/control/regulation, so our colleagues Dr. Wilfried Diekmann and Leonard Voßgrag were able to contribute an interesting article entitled "Measurement system for correlative measurement of fuel gases".

We are looking forward to the official publication on 09.02.2023

A few days have already passed since Energy Decentral 2022 in Hannover. Two problems in particular were the clear focus of our discussions here:

- Technical Rule for Plant Safety (TRAS 120)
According to TRAS 120, the leak tightness of supporting air deflectors must be checked. Measurements upstream and downstream of the supporting air monitoring system serve to detect creeping leaks in good time, thus safeguarding the plant and the environment. UNION has developed an effective measuring device for precisely this application, which reliably determines the difference between inlet and outlet.

- Billing of raw biogas
The billing of raw biogas raises several challenges. The gas properties differ greatly in terms of moisture, fuel gas concentration, pressure and temperature.

UNION can also provide solutions for this application:
1. the high-quality solution is a calorimeter with ultrasonic meter and volume corrector. This variant comes very close to the recognition of a custody transfer.
2. the simpler solution is a multi-gas analyser with a fluidistor. This variant is particularly popular with sewage treatment plants.
