Abstract: A system comprises a speed detector, a marker sensor, a controller, a sensor unit, and a processor. The speed detector is configured to generate speed data associated with a movement of a vehicle. The marker sensor is configured to generate marker data based on a detection of an object along a wayside of a guideway. The controller is configured to calculate a distance the vehicle moved, generate location information, and generate an indication the vehicle is stationary. The sensor unit comprises an accelerometer, a gyroscope, and a magnetometer. The sensor unit is configured to generate sensor data based on information gathered by one or more of the accelerometer, the gyroscope, or the magnetometer. The processor is configured to process the sensor data to determine a vehicle position based on the sensor data and the location information. The controller is further configured to compare the location information with the vehicle position.

Abstract: This invention provides a system for operating RFID tags on a single-use connector. The system includes: a first single-use connector configured to receive a first RFID tag and a second single-use connector configured to receive a second RFID tag. The invention also includes a reader placed close to the first RFID tag and the second RFID tag. The reader is configured to: determine if the first RFID tag and the second RFID tag are gamma sterilized; determine if the first RFID tag and the second RFID tag were previously used; determine if the first RFID tag and the second RFID tag are authentic; and determine if the first RFID tag matches with the second RFID tag.

Abstract: A filter holder to be used in a chromatography column is provided. Said filter holder comprising a filter squeezing part (356) facing the filter of the column essentially in the form of a plate and a squeezing means (354) adapted to squeeze the filter squeezing part (356) against the filter (204) to prevent any leakage of particulate medium from the bed space (209) of the column in between the filter holder and the filter (204). According to the invention said filter squeezing part (356) comprises at least one channel (338), providing fluid connections through the filter squeezing part (356) from the side of the filter squeezing part (356) facing the filter (204) and to the side of the filter squeezing part (356) facing the bed space (209).
