Abstract: A separation device features a coalescing media and a magnetic separation insert. The coalescing media includes vertically assembled perforated sheets having surfaces with openings. The sheets form a coalescing media interior space in the separation chamber, and are configured and shaped to slow down hydronic fluid and enable entrained gasses, ferromagnetic or ferritic particles and other solids to coalesce and come out of a hydronic fluid via a coalescing action caused by the hydronic fluid contacting and flowing through the coalescing media.

Abstract: A test and calibration system of electronic torque wrench includes a base, a sensing device, a force imposing device, and a calibrating device. The sensing device is disposed on the first end of the base and includes a receiving socket to receive the driving portion of the wrench. The force imposing device is disposed on the second end of the base for holding the handle portion of the wrench, such that the wrench imposes the torque on the sensing device which measures the actual torque value. The calibrating device is signally connected with the sensing device and the wrench. When a predetermined torque value is different from the actual torque value, the calibrating device generates a calibrating signal to the electronic torque wrench for the calibration operation. Also, the calibrating device includes a displaying unit for displaying the actual torque value.

Abstract: Wax-based compositions for making barrier layers used in oral treatment devices are thermally stable when formed into a flat sheet or three-dimensional article to a temperature of at least 45° C. and are plastically deformable at room temperature (25° C.). The wax-based compositions include a wax fraction homogeneously blended with a polymer fraction. The wax fraction includes at least one wax and the polymer fraction includes at least one polymer selected such that, when the at least one wax and at least one polymer are homogeneously blended together, they yield a wax-based composition having the desired properties of thermal stability and plastic deformability. Barrier layers and oral treatment devices made from such wax-based compositions are dimensionally stable to a temperature of at least 40° C. without external support and can be plastically deformed in a user's mouth to become at least partially customized to the size and shape of user's unique dentition.
