Issue 2 November 09 NEWS link Showcasing the latest products for electrical installations and information networks Putting a new spin on the standard GPO HPM has released a range of power points with patented rotating covers. Boosting safety performance, the spring-loaded covers on the new ES (extra safety) power points remain firmly closed when not in use. To plug-in an appliance, users simply insert the plug into the pin holes of the safety cover and rotate the plug anti-clockwise until the cover aligns with the outlet underneath. The plug can then be fully inserted. When the plug is removed the covers will automatically spring back to the closed position, covering the outlet from inquisitive young fingers and reducing the possibility of accidents. Available in both the Linea and Excel plate formats, the ES power points are poised to be a hit in family homes, public buildings and child care facilities. Coverplates are available in the full range of Excel and Linea colours and finishes. Rotating covers are available in white, black or grey. EXCEL RANGE EXPANSION: “EVO” 41 new functions available!

Sparking a revolution in dimmer technology, HPM is launching a full range of universal push button dimmers. With the new technology, contractors are now able to dim a load 2 ways thanks to the inclusion of a secondary (or slave) mechanism (450SM) within the new range. And, with no accompanying switches required, up to 6 dimmer mechanisms can be easily installed on a standard 6 gang plate. Standard light switches can also easily be upgraded to a dimmer - contractors simply exchange the switch mechanisms for a new dimmer mechanism. Available in white, cream, black and matt silver (with either white or black trim), the dimmers work with both electronic and iron core transformers for greater flexibility and can be retrofitted onto existing HPM plates. Features include: ■ O ne touch on-off. Push+hold to ramp up or down ■ S erene blue LED indicator - bright when light is on, dimmed when light is off ■ Max 450W load ■ Short-circuit protection ■ Overload protection ■ Flicker and noise free ■ Soft-start - increased lamp life ■ C ompatible with HPM’s Standard, Excel, Linea and Architectural Metal plates ■ A vailable as mechanisms only as well as plated models The push button series of dimmers is the latest addition to HPM’s completely revitalised and re-engineered dimmer range including: 250L/T, 400L/T, 700L/T, and 1000L/T. NEW HPM dimmer range: 250L/T 400L/T 450P 700L/T 1000L/T Another Trick To Reduce Costs New HPM dimmers - 250 series To help contractors reduce project costs, HPM has released a series of 250VA dimmers - an economical solution for smaller jobs where 400VA+ capacity is not needed. The range includes both ‘leading’ edge and ‘trailing’ edge mechanisms. Features include: ■ Quiet operation ■ Flicker free ■ S oft start – lamp turns on gradually to increase lamp life ■ O ver-temperature protection – lamp automatically dims if dimmer is overloaded Compatible with HPM plates – Standard, Excel, Linea and Architectural Metal, the dimmer mechanisms are available in White, Cream, Beige, Brown and Black Powering Construction Sites Excel 15A double pole power point Double The Motor Rating HPM rotary switch upgrade HPM has released 3 new rotary switches boosting the motor rating of each from M50 to M100.
