COLUMBIA LIGHTING
Columbia Lighting’s new Transition fixtures are enhanced with soft, matte white reflectors to provide uniform illumination and high visual comfort. The deep, sculpted look created by the balanced reflector lens compliments any space. Designed with precision optics and a custom-engineered polyester coating, Transition configurations achieve performance with efficiencies from 90–100%. The Transition family of fixtures feature three lamp sizes available in five different configurations offering maximum versatility in most applications. The completely recessed housing provides a clean, unobstructed ceiling line at mounting heights as low as 8 feet. Ideal for schools, medical facilities, and general public spaces, the fluorescents have an optional clear acrylic dust guard that pivots to close off the lamp compartment.

GUASCOR POWER
Guascor Power, formally known as Guascor S.A., part of the Guascor Group, has developed three new series of engines: the SFGM for propane, the SFGM for natural gas, and the HGM series engines using the Miller cycle. The SFGM series utilizes the current configuration, but, with the incorporation of the Miller cycle, Guascor can achieve higher power ratings and better efficiencies. Utilizing this technology, Guascor has also developed the SFGM propane engine series. The HGM series or High Efficiency series is a completely new engine that Guascor developed with the support of AVL, also utilizing the Miller cycle. This series has electrical efficiencies above 40%, and NOx emissions at or below 250 mg Nm3.

LECTRUS CORP.
Lectrus recently completed a unique custom metal enclosure at Cooper Nuclear Station (CNS), Nebraska Public Power District’s largest single unit electrical power generation station. CNS commissioned Interstate Power Systems—who in turn contracted with the Lectrus South Dakota Operation—to build a large, two-piece, sound-attenuated metal enclosure for a backup diesel generator, switchgear, and associated electrical equipment. The new diesel generator will supplement the station’s two emergency diesel generators already in service. Lectrus specializes in the design and construction of robust electrical enclosures that house and protect power distribution and generation equipment.
