With the global entry door market continuing to boom, Legrand UK & Ireland has launched its latest Bticino multi way audio and video entry kits for multiple dwelling units (MDUs).

Data from Ken Research has stated that the door entry market is forecasted to expand at a compound annual growth rate of 9% up to 2028, reaching a value of $14 billion overall.

Anticipating this continued growth, Legrand has launched a new range of Bticino 2 wire kits to wholesalers, each including audio or video push button calling systems for small-to-medium-sized apartment projects.

The kits, which are easy-to-fit and can be installed in MDUs with up to 18 units, have been launched to support electrical installers looking for a simple-to-install door entry system. All required installation components are provided in each kit’s box, ready to be installed on existing cabling or Bticino 2 wire cable.

Included in the kit is the plug-and-play Sfera Allmetal push button entrance panel, which meets IP54 and IK08 ratings for weather and impacts. Each kit also contains a power supply, configurator kit, modules and door lock relays, alongside internal units with door lock release buttons and entrance panel surface mounting backboxes. A video option is also available, which includes Classe 100V16M video internal units with a 4·3″ colour LCD display.

Kidde Safety Europe has launched a new carbon dioxide (CO2) monitor to help people to understand and improve indoor air quality in homes, workplaces, schools and hospitality venues.

The mains powered non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) monitor complies with the Scottish Building Standards requirements for the mandatory CO2 monitors that must be installed in all homes.

Warning users of rising CO2 levels or abnormal humidity or temperature level changes, the new Kidde CO2 Monitor, which has a 10-year lifespan, provides the current CO2 levels from 400 to 5000 parts per million (PPM), as well as a seven day history of CO2 readings. It also shows the current temperature and humidity on the large, easy to read LCD display, which has automatic brightness adjustment to minimise night-time disturbance.

The monitor has been designed to provide clear warnings and indications in several different forms. Detailed air quality information is displayed on the LCD screen. As many people will not be familiar with the acceptable parts per million (PPM) for CO2, the Kidde CO2 monitor provides a ‘traffic light’ LED notification to allow easy identification of the current CO2 levels, even from a distance. Green represents 400 to 999ppm – which signals good indoor air quality, Orange denotes readings of 1,000 to 1499ppm – indicating deteriorating indoor air conditions associated with poor air quality complaints, and red displays for readings above 1500ppm – the level associated with headaches, drowsiness and loss of concentration and where it is necessary to ventilate indoor space as a result. At this level, the monitor’s easily audible built-in alarm clearly alerts occupants to high CO2 levels.
