Abstract: A control valve and a membrane for a moving a valve disk of a control valve between a first position and a second position are provided. The membrane has a central axis perpendicular to an extension plane of the membrane. The membrane includes an outer annular rim portion, a central portion configured to be connected the valve disk, and a flexible portion that is annular and provided between the central portion and the outer annular rim portion. The membrane is flexible to permit the central portion to move back and forth along the central axis, thereby permitting the valve disk to move to one of the first position and the second position. The membrane is designed with an inherent pre-tensioning of the flexible portion, which permits the membrane to exert a force on the valve disk from the first position towards the second position.

Abstract: A system and method for monitoring at least one operating pressure in a milking installation by a pressure sensor measuring values of a pressure level in a component of a milking point of the milking installation, the pressure level being indicative of the at least one operating pressure to be monitored. A processing node generates monitoring data representing a series of measured values of the pressure level, and the monitoring data contains temporal indicators designating a respective timestamp indicative of a point in time when a value of the pressure level was measured. The temporal indicators serve as a basis for triggering at least one alarm, such as when a timestamp indicates that the pressure level was measured to a value outside of an acceptable range of values at the point in time indicated by the timestamp.

Abstract: A solution for detecting level of a consumable tissue product (201, 301) in a tissue dispenser (103, 106) located in a washroom. This is provided in a number of aspects such as a tissue dispenser, a method, system, and a sensor unit utilizing two sensor elements (420, 430), each arranged to measure light reflected from a reflection field located on the tissue product, reflected directly from the tissue product, or measure the absence of the tissue product. Data from the sensor elements are wirelessly transmitted to a server (901) for further handling, such as for instance notification to a janitor in charge of service of the washroom.
