Stratlock mounting solutions
from Fastmounthttp://www.fastmount.comFASTMOUNT HAS DEVELOPED a heavy-duty hidden panel
mounting solution for installing large interior panels onto
aluminium or steel extrusion framework. A purpose-built
system, Stratlock claims to be the only product on the
market that provides versatility in modular design and
adjustable panel installation, thanks to its patent-pending
dual locking function. It was designed in collaboration with
Poliform Contract Italy. The screw or adhesive-fix male
(SL-M15) features a double-detent shank which locks into
the teeth of the rapid-fit female (SL-F15A or SL-F15B) in the
aluminium frame. Upon first click, the panel is supported,
with a 10mm adjustable tolerance to find the correct panel
position. The second click then locks the panel into position,
secured with a 10kg pull-out load per clip set, making the
system ideal for heavy decorative panels.Raymarine Element S series from FLIR

http://www.bluebgi.comBLUE GUARD INNOVATIONS (BGI) has launched two US Coast Guard-
compliant solid state alarm systems to detect high water conditions on
board. The BG-HW (High Water) Sensor can be easily integrated into any
vessel’s alarm system to trigger an alarm when high water is detected.
The IP-68 rated device has two integrated sensors to ensure reliable
and accurate detection. BG-HW connects via Bluetooth to the BGI
Configuration App and enables each sensor to be independently tested
for sound and visual alarm activation. It operates at 12V, 24V or 36V DC
with 1 amp max alarm output.
The BG-SWA (Solid-State Bilge Pump Switch with High Water Alarm)
is a solid-state bilge pump switch with no moving parts that will activate
the bilge pump when water or any liquid is detected. The device triggers
the high water alarm when water is detected continuously for three
seconds after the first detection (factory default setting), indicating that
the bilge pump is either overwhelmed with excessive rising water or not
working. The BG-SWA can power pumps up to 20 amps and operates in
any 12V, 24V or 36V DC system.
