Pero degreaser help Tenable turn the screw on SED

Kenilworth, UK. March 2007: With the solvent emissions regulations (SER) set to come into force on 31 October 2007, turned parts specialist Tenable Screw Co Ltd has decided to take early measures to avoid potential fines by replacing a non-compliant Pero solvent degreasing machine with a new Pero V1 universal solvent degreaser from sole UK agent Kumi Solutions Ltd.

“This particular machine simply didn’t meet the emissions regulations set out in the forthcoming SER,” states Norman Runciman, facilities manager. “We have a number of Pero machines already and they perform really well, so it was a fairly natural choice to acquire the Pero V1 from Kumi Solutions Ltd as a replacement.”

The forthcoming SER restricts emissions from organic solvents to limit worker exposure and protect health. Companies failing to comply with the emission limits set under the SER will face investigation and possible prosecution by the Health and Safety Executive. Firms may also face increasing compensation claims for associated health problems from affected employees, as well as hefty fines.

Pero Solvent systems reduce VOC emissions to below that of the incoming regulations and are in fact built to the tighter German laws 31 BImSchV and 2

BImSchV. All US and European emission regulations are surpassed. V Series machines from Pero work with the entire system under negative pressure (V standing for vacuum).
