New Sparklike HandheldTM from Inagas for Southern Windows
26th March 2024
Inagas has been supporting longstanding customer, Southern Windows, with their gas testing requirements. With a manufacturing base in Watford, family run Southern Windows has over 35 years’ experience in the production of aluminium window and door systems and is well respected as a specialist in the very latest structural glazing solutions.
Having recently installed a fully automated line with gas press and further investment planned to install a sealing robot, from Best Makina, this diligent manufacturer was looking for non-invasive testing equipment to ensure their line performs consistently as expected, so the Sparklike HandheldTM was the best piece of equipment for the job.
Tomasz Zabek, Director at Southern Windows explains: “We have had gas filling equipment from Inagas in the past and have always been happy with the products and service, so when we were looking to invest in some testing equipment, they were the obvious people to call. Quality is at the heart of everything we do, which is why we have invested heavily in our manufacturing processes - to ensure our customers get the very best end products to the highest standards. So, once manufacture is complete, it makes no sense for us to compromise that quality finish by causing damage to the spacer bar with invasive gas testing equipment. That is why we chose the Sparklike HandheldTM, as we are able to test the gas level within the completed unit, without compromising the unit itself.”
The Sparklike HandheldTM 3.0 is the very latest non-destructive insulating gas measuring device from Sparklike, designed for the accurate measurement of argon and krypton gas in IG units. With measurement results available within 2 seconds, this user friendly, handheld portable device is the best way to verify your gas filling process.
Chris Kemp, Sales Director at Inagas, concludes: “Sparklike is the world leader in the manufacture of non-invasive IGU gas testing equipment. As well as supplying the technology, they back it up with technical support with remote connection to all of their customers. I have used a Sparklike HandheldTM and its predecessor as part of my sales demonstration for over 20 years and last year we became the official distribution partner for them in the UK and Ireland. As a forward-thinking manufacturer, Southern Windows understands the importance of demonstrating transparency when it comes to verifying your gas fill post production, without the need to compromise their high end unit quality, post production. Which is why the Sparklike HandheldTM 3.0 was the perfect choice.”
