Keeping Everything Ticking

Scolmore Group acquires Sangamo

New Website Feature: Product Filter

As of today, when viewing products on www.sangamo.co.uk, you will now see a 'Product Filter' on the left hand side of the page. This allows you to refine products by a number of predefined specifications to help you find the exact product you need easily & efficiently.

This feature works particularly well on both ranges of time switch, the Round Pattern Time Switch & DIN & Panel products, where there are a number of products that look the same but have slightly different functions. 

Efficiency In The Palm Of Your Hand

Near Field Communication (NFC) is a low powered wireless communication technology that allows devices to exchange information from just a few centimetres away. There’s a good chance you have already used NFC yourself, maybe without even realising it.

If you’ve used;

• touch-and-go travel cards like the London Underground’s Oyster Card
• a contactless bank card to tap on a card reader
• used Apple Pay or Google Wallet to make a purchase in a shop
• used Nintendo Amiibo or Lego Dimensions physical toys to interact with computer games

…then you certainly have, all these utilise NFC technology to transfer data.

Time switch manufacturer Sangamo, well known for their Round Pattern Time Switch (RPTS) range that they’ve made in the UK for over 65 years, have a new range of DIN rail mounted digital time switches that include NFC capability.

Are you Gas Safety Compliant?

Under Part F of the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998, social housing landlords are required to arrange an annual safety check of gas appliances and pipework. Unfortunately many landlords, local authorities and housing associations find some tenants, for a variety of reasons, difficult to arrange access, despite the checks being a potentially lifesaving necessity.

Sangamo have developed a range of Choice Heating Programmers with a service interval function, which is designed as a supplementary aid to assist landlords in alerting their tenants that a service is due.
