VESDA-E VEU Aspirating Smoke Detector

Dublin, Ireland (PRWEB UK) 23 May 2014

Just a few months since launch and unprecedented in the industry, the VESDA-E aspirating smoke detector by Xtralis was honored with prestigious product innovation awards at both the MIPS Moscow International Exhibition, and at GovSec Conference & Expo in Washington, DC. Expert judges on different continents came to the same conclusion, that VESDA-E, offers the best features, innovation, user-friendliness, scalability, and impact on the industry. The awards are the 5th & 6th awards won by Xtralis solutions in the past year alone.

VESDA-E was awarded a Platinum Govie Award, the highest in Fire & Life Safety, at the GovSec Conference & Expo, held May 13 & 14. The Govie honors outstanding safety & security products noted for exceptional suitability for USA government applications. The GovSec Conference & Expo is the USA’s premier event for Government, Homeland Security, and Law Enforcement professionals looking for proven strategies and cost effective technology so they can achieve their mission of protecting critical infrastructures, key assets, and communities across the United States. VESDA-E also recently won for Best Product Innovation — Fire Alarm and Security at the 20th MIPS Moscow International Exhibition, held April 14-17. MIPS Moscow is the largest exhibition for Security and Fire Safety in Eastern Europe and Russia. Award winners are promoted in a Russian governmental list of recommended products. Winning companies can sell directly to equipment installers and end-users in Russia without going through lengthy certification processes.

With two prestigious awards already secured, VESDA-E is also competing for an Australian Good Design Award, given to solutions that provide consumers with a clear indicator of the cornerstones of good design — form, function, quality, safety, sustainability, commerciality, and innovation. Good Design Award winners will be announced on May 28, at a gala event in Sydney, Australia. While current-generation VESDA was considered the benchmark for ASD systems, VESDA-E surpasses that with 15 times greater sensitivity to smoke and double the longevity, with 8% less power consumption. Unique to fire protection, VESDA-E can quickly add remote monitoring, servicing, and detection capabilities with the addition of bolt-on hardware modules called VESDA Stax, including a version of its award-winning ECO gas detection solution. VESDA-E offers innovative & easy setup, configuration, remote monitoring, and connectivity options. A first in the industry, VESDA-E can be enhanced with downloadable software applications, called Xapps, which enable new, on-demand monitoring services. Available immediately are DustTrace, DieselTrace, and WireTrace Xapps, to monitor conditions and enable corrective response to take place before threats escalate. VESDA-E can be remotely and wirelessly monitored & managed using an iVESDA mobile app available on IOS & Android mobile devices. iVESDA mobility provides intelligent situational awareness for local & emergency personnel, vastly improving response time and effectiveness.

“We’re excited about the introduction of the VESDA-E series, and we’re showcasing it to our customers across the USA.

Washington D.C. Gum Disease Treatment Can Now Help Prevent Tooth Loss with Laser Gum Surgery from Dr. Russell W. Phillips













Dr. Russel Phillips Brings Laser Gum Surgery to his Washington D.C. patients.

Washington DC (PRWEB) August 04, 2013

Russell W. Phillips now offers the Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure (LANAP) as an alternative gum disease treatment. LANAP effectively treats periodontal disease, which is the leading cause of tooth loss in American adults. Gum disease in Americans aged 30 and over is widely considered to be an epidemic. Many cases of gum disease go untreated. Experts believe that this is partially because of patients’ fear of traditional treatment methods.

Gum disease occurs when bacterial processes in the mouth create a film on the teeth. When this film is not properly removed through good oral hygiene, it hardens into calculus. As a result, the tissues and bone around the teeth recede away from the surface of the tooth. Teeth become unstable and tooth loss becomes inevitable. Besides being unsightly, missing teeth can also contribute to further bone loss in the jaw. Because the root of the tooth is no longer stimulating the bone, the bone starts to degenerate. Ultimately, this can drastically alter the shape of the face, causing it to wrinkle and appear aged. Proper bone density is essential to good oral health.

Tooth loss and bone loss can be avoided with preventative care measures. This includes good day-to-day oral hygiene. Patients with advanced gum disease should seek gum disease treatment with LANAP from Dr. Phillips. Dr. Phillips uses an advanced laser to remove damaged tissue from the mouth. The high-precision laser preserves healthy tissue, allowing it to reattach to the roots of teeth. The laser also stimulates the regeneration of cells in the jawbone, further stabilizing teeth. LANAP facilitates faster healing times than older “flap surgery” methods and can be done in only a few short sessions.

The beginning symptoms of gum disease, such as inflammation, bleeding of the gums and sensitivity are seemingly innocuous and often overlooked. However, patients should be aware of the potential dangers of gum disease including tooth and bone loss. Individuals who may be suffering from periodontitis should look into treatment options.
