  • Patent number: 11448846
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to structures and configurations for breaking out fibers from cables and/or securing the ends of protective mesh sleeves to other structures such as brackets, cables and trays/cassettes. The mesh sleeves can be adapted to protect optical fibers that pass therethrough. In one example, a mesh sleeve can be secured to another structure by an anchor including a reinforcing insert that fits in the mesh sleeve and a clamping housing that mounts over the mesh sleeve.

  • Publication number: 20210123850
    Abstract: A method for predicting a change of at least one state variable, which characterizes a service life and/or performance of at least one air filter, includes the following steps: detecting at least one value of at least one influencing variable, on which the change in the at least one state variable per unit of time depends; detecting a time period for which the influencing variable having this value acts on the at least one air filter as a time duration; supplying the at least one value of the at least one influencing variable to at least one model which supplies an output quantity that is a measure for a contribution made to the change in the at least one state variable per unit of time that is caused by the at least one influencing variable; and determining the change of the at least one state variable.

  • Publication number: 20210060474
    Abstract: A method for predicting a service life of a filter element of a filter module in a system, the filter element serving to clean air, includes the steps of: a) retrieving characterization data of the system from a database; b) retrieving characterization data of the filter element from a database; c) retrieving measurement data of the system detected in the system by sensor technology; d) retrieving measurement data of the filter element detected by the sensor technology in the filter module; e) retrieving measurement data of air to be cleaned; and f) creating a data model from the data and determining the service life of the filter element to be expected.

  • Publication number: 20210060473
    Abstract: A method for providing an air stream for a system, in particular a plant, includes the following steps: a. specifying an air requirement and a required degree of air purity of the system having the plant, and storing the values in a memory unit of a control module; b. cleaning the air stream in a filter module comprising filter elements; c. providing the air stream through the filter module to air inlets or air outlets of the system as a provided air stream; d. detecting a magnitude of the provided air stream and of an actual degree of air purity by a sensor system; e. comparing a magnitude of the provided air stream and of the actual degree of air purity to the stored values; and g. calculating a performance characteristic of the filter module. A volume of the provided air influences the performance characteristic.
