and options required for the North American market and come in

TACO had a variety of new solutions on display. Most notable
was Project Builder a web-based app that promises to saves time,
eliminates paperwork and increases the accuracy of commercial
and residential project development. It was developed to allow the
user to create and save projects on line; select products; aggregate
all relevant schedule files; create accurate, conservative budgets;
provide fast coordination with electrical and structural and make
changes quickly and easily. Projects can be saved and stored.
TACO was also displaying the
Viridian VT2218 circulator, which is
a temperature sensing, self-adjusting,
variable-speed wet rotor circulator
with an ECM permanent magnet
motor. Operating modes include
Delta-T differential temperature, 4
fixed speeds, set point heat, set point
cool and boiler protection.
Delta-T operation maximizes sys-
tem efficiency and comfort, and a high-efficiency ECM motor
uses up to 85% less electricity.
LECTRO-TRUCK had their popular
hand trucks on display, noting their 40
years in the industry. The most popular
item at the show, according to com-
pany president Kevin Peters was the
LTA6512E, designed for commercial
deliveries. The high-torque 1 1/2 horse-
power motor, extension handle, tripod
and on-board charging system wheels
keep everything in one unit without the
need for additional peripherals. The new flagship model builds on
the versatile cart platform that LECTRO-TRUCK has manufactured
in Wisconsin for decades.
SUNTEC Industries has long been
invested in B20 fuel, and displayed
their new line of B20 equivalent
pumps that launched in January 2015.
The new pumps are compatible with
biodiesel as defined in ASTM D6751.
Standard pumps only cover #1 and
#2 fuel which limits their classification to 5% biodiesel content. The
new pumps allow for fuel up to 20% biofuel.
