Abstract: A process for automating control of an industrial vehicle based on location comprises scanning an environment in a travel direction of the industrial vehicle, by using an optical scanner affixed to the industrial vehicle. A marker defined by a series of tags is identified by recursively receiving a reflection of the optical scanner; determining if the reflection is indicative of an optical tag; and concatenating the indication of an optical tag to the marker. Once the marker is identified, the marker is transformed into an environmental condition and a status of the vehicle is determined, where the status correlates to the environmental condition. Further, an automated control is applied on the industrial vehicle based on the environmental condition and the status of the industrial vehicle.

Abstract: A device for steam disinfecting products includes a treatment chamber. An evaporation pan is arranged in the chamber and heated. A liquid contained in the pan evaporates. A drying air flow is generated by a fan unit and directed onto the evaporation pan via a fan duct. A non-return element is arranged in the fan duct and prevents liquid vapor from getting from the evaporation pan to the fan unit. During an evaporation process, the fan unit is switched off and the fan duct is blocked by a non-return element. During a subsequent drying process, the fan unit is switched on and the non-return element of the fan duct is opened for the drying air flow. During operation of the fan unit, the evaporation pan is heated to a temperature above the specified minimum temperature using a heating device.
