Abstract: The present embodiments relate to an antifouling polymer comprising a plurality of repeating units. At least a portion of the plurality of repeating units comprises medetomidine, or an enantiomer, base or salt thereof, covalently bound to the repeating unit through a hydrolysable bond. The antifouling polymer can comprised in an antifouling composition applied as a surface coating on underwater or submersible structures to prevent or at least inhibit marine biofouling on surfaces of the structures.

Abstract: The present embodiments relate to an antifouling article comprising polyurethane and medetomidine, or an enantiomer or salt thereof, from 0.1% by weight of the antifouling article and present in a polymer matrix of the polyurethane.

Abstract: A converter circuitry between a first network, which may be either a poly-phase medium-voltage alternating current (AC) network, at least one polyphase low-voltage AC network or at least one direct-current (DC) network, and a second network, which may be either a polyphase medium-voltage AC network or a medium-voltage DC network, wherein the converter circuitry comprises at least one power bus and low-voltage power cells both at the first and at the second network side such that each power cell is connected to a power bus via a transformer. Each power bus is connected to a low-voltage power unit, which is able to supply pre-charging power via the power bus to all power cell intermediate DC-link filtering capacitors before the converter is started. The low-voltage power unit is also able to take care of a resistor braking in case the first network cannot take the power supplied by the load connected to the second network.

Abstract: Medetomidine or a salt thereof for use in controlling parasitic crustaceans, such as sea lice, on fish, e.g. salmon. A method of improving water flow into and out of a cage or net for fish farming, by providing said cage or net with a surface coating containing medetomidine or a salt thereof in an amount effective to reduce biofouling of said cage or net. The coating is capable of releasing medetomidine or the salt thereof into the water in the cage or net in an amount effective to reduce or prevent parasitic infestation of the fish in the cage or net.

Abstract: A housing arrangement of a power electronics device includes one power module or several identical power modules, each module with at least one part connected to a hazardous voltage, the arrangement further including a housing part having room for at least one power module. Each power module includes an enclosure part which essentially surrounds the power module and includes electrically insulating material. All the external connections of the power module are placed on one single wall of the enclosure part. The power modules and the enclosure part of the power modules are arranged such that when the power module is installed to the housing part the power module is electrically insulated from the housing part and external connections of the power module are directed to the front side of the housing part.
