The apparatus is useful for detecting levels of ammonia in fish ponds or indeed any impurity that may be dissolved in the water.

Abstract: An assembly (110) for dissipating heat generated by a heat generating electrical component (16) which is surface mounted on a circuit board (11) in a surface mounting process. The assembly comprises a heat buffer (120) made of a thermally and electrically conducing material, and being surface mounted on the circuit board (11) so as to be soldered to a thermal flag (18) of the heat generating electrical component (16). The assembly further comprises a heat sink (12) in thermal contact with the heat buffer, and a galvanic separation (13) between the heat buffer and heat sink. The heat capacitance of the heat buffer can absorb short term increases in heat dissipation from the electrical component, before the heat is further dissipated to the galvanically separated heat sink. This may drastically improve performance of the surface mounted component.

Abstract: A multiphase electric motor system and a method for controlling a multiphase electric motor system are disclosed. The method for controlling the multiphase electric motor system includes modulating a plurality of carrier signals with a plurality of modulation signals in order to generate a multiphase motor supply signal having a modulated phase signal for each phase of the electric motor. A set of time windows is defined in each period of the multiphase motor supply signal, where an individually selected group of modulated phase signals is modified by delaying the associated carrier signal in each time window, thereby generating a shifted multiphase motor supply signal and providing an efficient DC bus ripple reduction. Hereby, it is e.g. possible to use small filter capacitors/capacitor banks in electrical motor systems. An analogous multiphase electric generator system and method for controlling a multiphase electric generator system are disclosed.
