June 28 2008 PhilippinesMuroami divers tried to loot capsized ferry Some fishermen, locally known in the Philippines as muroami divers, reportedly tried to enter and loot the Sulpicio Lines’ capsized ferry, MV Princess of the Stars. Using improvised air compressors, were able to get near to the vessel despite the presence of the Philippine Marines and Philippine coastguard rescue vessels. A radio reporter and a photographer saw at least 11 looters and the photographer was able to take pictures of some them, which police hope to use for identification.Meanwhile, officials have suspended diving operations aimed at recovering bodies form the stricken ferry after it was disclosed that the vessel was carrying 10 tons of endosulfan, a restricted pesticide. “We aborted the retrieval operations because of the pesticide inside the ship,” Philippine Vice President Noli De Castro said. “It's dangerous and no divers are allowed in the area now.”Sulpicio Lines, the owners of the ferry, has come under fire for failing to disclose the nature of the cargo. So far only 56 of the passengers are reported by the Philippine Coast Guard to have been found alive. Full story...

Bauer Introduces the Poseidon Edition Pure Power

The Poseidon edition from Bauer is not only a new range of compressors but also a completely new system concept offering an optimum price/performance ratio. We are heading into new directions concerning system configurations that are attuned to the conditions of use, the actually required operating time, simple operation and low service expenditure.

Pure Power in the new Poseidon Edition underlines the combination of high performance with minimum technical components and ease of operation.

“What you get is what you see”. The technical foundation of the Poseidon Edition is provided by a long life compressor block in combination with a basic compressor control and the proven P-series purification system. This guarantees the required air quality acc. DIN EN 12021. Capacities range from 200 lit/min to 680 lit/min which covers a large application spectrum for our customers applications.

Unlike our known Bauer Premium breathing air compressors that can be adjusted to suit every customer requirement and technical outfit, the Poseidon Edition is only available in one version. The options package being restricted to the required operating pressure [225 or 330 bar] and/or the filling connections. In future the compressors KAP and V 320/500/680-F will be incorporated into the Poseidon Edition too.

These compressors technically satisfy the requirements coming from fire brigades. The Most important economic advantages offered by BAUER compressors are to be found in the proven product quality, the long service intervals, low power consumption and the very high resale value of the systems, and last but not least, the 24/7 global spare parts supply service that is available. These are clear advantages.

The Poseidon Edition does not replace the BAUER Premium Line. It has been conceived as a supplement to the range.
