UV disinfection power switching

Self-propelled spreader/sprayer
The new RS7200 Spread-N-Spray self-propelled spreader/
sprayer combination unit boasts high capacity, superior material application, and high-performance handling. The SpreadN-Spray is powered by a 200cc Honda GX200 engine with a 2:1
ratio gear reducer. The large-capacity hopper accommodates
150 pounds or 3 cubic feet of material, which can be spread up
to 11 feet wide. Additionally, the balanced tank system holds 17
gallons of liquid and contains just one fill port for quick, convenient refilling. The sprayer is powered by a 2-gpm pump, and
the low-pressure nozzles offer multiple spray patterns to apply
liquid up to 11 feet wide. A spot sprayer is also provided for
weed-spraying applications. TRYNEX INTERNATIONAL, 866-5TUR-

The Aquionics Photon PMD range of UV disinfection systems
now further reduces pool operating and maintenance costs with
its new Power
Switching feature. Photon units
use UV lights to
destroy chloramines, which
cause unpleasant odors, skin
and eye irritation, and can
damage steel
structures in surrounding enclosures. Pools using a UV disinfection system also require lower chlorine levels to maintain
cleanliness, reducing operating costs. The Aquionics Photon
PMD systems offer the new Power Switching feature, allowing
users to automate the UV disinfection process. The new feature
continuously monitors the water and maintains a predetermined
UV dosage (for disinfection or chloramine control) regardless of
bather load or water quality. By reducing unit activity to an asneeded basis, Power Switching extends lamp life and reduces
energy usage. AQUIONICS, 1.800.925.0440, WWW.AQUIONICS.COM.

Bug bite relief device
Therapik, a small, battery-powered, hand-held device is confirmed by the FDA to deliver bug bite relief. Most insect venom
is thermolabile, or sensitive to heat. Therapik's patented technology delivers heat in the precise temperature range necessary to deactivate the venom from over 20,000 different species
of insects and sea creatures. As the heat neutralizes the venom
and increases blood flow to the affected area, there is a marked
reduction in swelling, redness, pain, and itching. Therapik can
be reapplied as often as necessary until sufficient bug bite relief
is obtained. Most Therapik users find that one 20- to 30-second
application is enough to stop the itch and pain permanently.
