Heated glass can be used to provide practical, attractive, and transparent ways to prevent condensation, keep cooked foods hot, create new designs for towel warmers and space heaters, and also maintain operation of liquid crystal displays in the cold. gas technology 22 Gas appliances require reliable ignition systems, and, until recently, designers had two ignition choices: spark and hot surface. A new hot-wire ignition system provides a third alternative. 22 motors & pumps 28 Whether designing a pressurized air or vacuum system, specifying the right pump is critical. A list of 10 considerations can provide 90 percent of the information needed to make the right choice. controls & sensors COVER A hot-wire ignition system provides designers of gas appliances an additional ignition option. The low-voltage, resistive wire coil heats, burns off contaminants, and can be adapted to different burner systems. For more information, see the story beginning on page 22.
