How Illuminating! NewProducts Crushing Blows Atlas Copco presents its new hydraulic demolition cutter CC 950 with a hydraulic rotation device. The CC 950 can be used for light demolition work, such as eliminating masonry and lightly reinforced concrete structures and particularly for interior renovation and gutting. With an operating weight of 920 kg, the new CC 950 fits onto carriers between 9 and 16 tons. The company says: “The serial-production hydraulic rotation device ensures continuous 360-degree rotation, thus allowing attachments to be placed in position quickly and easily. 55 tons of crushing force is a further argument in the CC 950’s favour.” The attachment cutting blades can be rotated, so replacing them on the construction site is possible without much time and effort.

Clean Freak Moen Incorporated’s commercial division now offers a complete line of easy-to-use sensor-operated faucets featuring hands-free activation. They are called M•Power faucets, and they are designed with conservation and convenience in mind. Moen says: “They are ideal for commercial, healthcare and educational facility applications. A unique motion sensor starts and stops the flow of water, automatically reducing daily gallons used, reducing sewage bills, limiting hot water consumption, saving energy and preventing the risk of accidental overflow.” Furthermore, because there are no handles, M•Power faucets offer a hygienic solution in preventing the spread of germs and bacteria. M•Power faucets are sold at Lowe’s stores throughout Hawaii. BI Tesla high output recessed downlights is the newest line of energy efficient LED products from WAC Lighting.
