Adjustment is made by dialling the selected tempera- ture, the control unit will then automatically adjust the Pencil and display the actual temperature. The range is from ambient to 100ºC, users find the lower temperatures very useful especially for cleaning with enzymes. The dry air facility is especially useful for low temperatures adhesives such as Beva 371 used in oil painting conservation.

■■ PEL-Humidity Dome The PEL-Humidity Dome is designed to exactly fit our PEL Cold Suction Table (Low Budget) alternatively, it will fit over a large suction table. On a large table the perforated area should be blanked off to ensure the suction is only drawn inside the dome. It can also be used without suction on a workbench.

The dome has a hole to take the humidity hose and a smaller one to insert a humidity sensor (see 0107-4500) humidity Controller). The large damper regulates the build up of negative vacuum pressure inside the dome and prevents excessive external pressure on the dome. We suggest our Ultrasonic Humidifier Kit (see page 138) is used for moist air, which gives a very even movement of mist within the dome, allowing relaxation to be controlled and even.

Made from clear 6mm acrylic with a base size of 795mm x 595mm x 330mm high.

■■ PEL Steamer The PEL-Steamer is a super heated steam generator with precision fine adjustment for removal of adhesives, waxes and resins on paper, books, wall paintings, gemstone cleaning, ceramic, sculpture, metal, in fact many conservation applications where controllable steam pressure is required. Fine adjustment from 0.5 to 8 bar (120 P.S.I.) with no drop in steam pressure during operation.

Safety features: automatic safety valve, automatic steam release (solenoid) valve, thermostatic cut out should the water level become too low. The machine is tested and approved to interna- tional standards. Operation is simple, once switched on, a short delay before neon indicating light illuminates to inform you the machine is operational. The extra long 1.75 metre flexible steam hose and fine jet hand-piece make it ideal for standing up on site work, especially for wall paintings. The long hose also allows the unit to sit on the floor (not on the bench) away from work in progress. The foot control switch allows hands free operation. To empty, simply turn on the outlet tap. Additional features such as pressure gauge, water level gauge, on-off foot switch, water outlet tap, 8 bar pressure, plugs into any 110 or 220/240 volt electrical supply with extra long steam hose.

■■ PEL Cold Suction Table Every paper conservator would be delighted with this machine, The product is used for relaxing, stain removal, spot leaf casting, parchment treatment, removing cockling creases and other conservation work. PEL’s experience in supplying Cold Suction Tables has enabled us to meet the demands from conservators such as: Powerful vacuum especially when using thick blotters in spot cleaning. Fully adjustable vacuum from full power to delicate suction. Stainless steel platen to repel solvents and chemicals (we do not use aluminium). The stainless steel table is constructed so that the perforated platen and air channels can be completely removed to allow the table to be used as wash sink, a water drain outlet is fitted. Removable perforated platen to allow full maintenance to clean airways such as after paper infill. Flush smooth completely flat suction table with no ridges at the edge. Humidification package with clear acrylic dome that sits flush on the suction table with precise humidity controlled RH levels. Air filter system allows the drawn in air to be pre- filtered to protect the artifact being treated from outside contamination, necessary if the vacuum is used for long periods. Two inlet hose connections allow the facility of cross direction underneath instead of totally pulling through the object, especially useful in treating parchment. Vacuum Generator Systems have three powers to chose from, the maximum vacuum pressure is 200 mb on all three, however the air flow capacity can be increased, see product codes. Carbon Filter System to the Vacuum Generators protects the operator from mild solvents and mildew spores. The support stand has lockable casters (wheels) for stability and movability.

■■ PEL Heated Suction Tables This table with its patented heating system provides temperature control, air flow, and vacuum control during various treatments. The flat edge to edge surface allows conservation work on very large paintings in sections. The precise even temperature 20°C to 70°C (with safety controls in case temperature should exceed maximum) is especially important in paintings conservation to provide equal exact controlled temperature. The patented principle of warming the perforated surface ensures the heat is transmitted to the object very quickly. Very short periods of heating and cooling down are achieved by the low mass of the heating element. Therefore the time the work of art is exposed to heat during treatment is reduced to a minimum. From ambient 20°C, heating up to 50°C takes just 50 seconds. ■■ The heat distribution over materials for use the whole table surface is a with these tables refer constant even temperature to page 147 and is only +/-1.5°C. The support table is made from aluminium and has heat control, vacuum and air flow controls, with indicating lights.

■■ Mastercast Leafcasting Machine This new leaf casting machine has been developed by PEL after years of experience in designing and marketing leaf casting and paper infill machines for paper conservators. It incorporates a number of new design features, which when combined with its large casting area offer the conservators much more than any other leaf casting machine. The PEL caster trials have already proved a superior quality of paper infill. The way it works is the machine consists of a casting tank and holding tank. Water is pumped into the casting tank first from the holding tank, housed below the casting area. Pulp is then mixed with the water in the casting tank containing the paper to be infilled. During the casting process, the pulp is removed from the water through the openings of the document being repaired and is held in place by a filter mesh placed below the dam- aged paper. Normally available from stock due to the fact they are manufactured in a quantity to enable us to offer this high specification machine at such a low price. Other suppliers have them made to order, are more expensive, and have long delivery times. Comes complete with operating manual, please note that to operate this machine requires some experience of paper infill and leaf casting knowledge is recommended. Pictures show work before paper infill repair and the finished quality. Before

■■ Anoxia Disinfestation System PEL with EXPM offer anoxia disinfestation chamber for pest control in works of art in archives, museums and libraries. The EXPM anoxia treatment system has been used to eradicate pest infestation in books, documents, artefacts and other materials since 1997. The chamber is rectangular with a volume of six cubic metres, manufactured from stainless steel, the structure is reinforced with carbon steel sections. The hinged door allows full access, there is a small ramp for wheeling in the shelved trolleys containing items for disinfestation. The anoxia chamber eliminates insects no matter what their stage of development, using an ecological, non-toxic process. The process does not employ toxic or chemically aggressive products or high temperatures. Therefore, no damage or accu- mulation of substances in the treated material, allowing them to be handled immediately following treatment. Display readings from within the chamber provide up-to-date information on the major parameters of the workings of the system. Temperature, relative humidity and pressure sensors are located inside the chamber, the oxygen content control system comprises a small circulating pump that feeds the oxygen analyser. The readings of these parameters are transmitted to a small central computer which receives and analyses them, controlling the working of a system of electromagnetic valves that in turn control the pneumatic valves of the control and safety systems. The objects remain in the chamber from 3 to 4 weeks to complete the treatment. During the treatment period the parameters are set to achieve insect eradication without residues or interference of the artefacts. The holding trolley kit is availing for inserting stacked items such as books, the kit contains 4 holding trolleys and makes removal simple and easy.
