Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a stretch hood arrangement (200) enclosing a stack of articles (201) arranged on a pallet (203) in multiple layers including a base layer (207), a top layer (209) and one or more intermediate layers, said stretch hood arrangement (200) comprising: a polymer film tubular band (215) stretched around at least the base layer (207) of the stack; a polymer film stretch hood (213) enclosing the top and sides of the stack; characterized in that the polymer film of the tubular band (215) has a higher elasticity than the polymer film of the stretch hood. The present disclosure further relates to the use of a the stretch hood arrangement for collection and transport of a stack of articles (201), preferably for collection and transport of a stack of bottles arranged on a pallet (203) in multiple layers.

Abstract: A versatile controller that can be used as either a stand-alone controller in a relatively small process plant or as one of numerous controllers in a distributed process control system depending on the needs of the process plant includes a processor adapted to be programmed to execute one or more programming routines and a memory, such as a non-volatile memory, coupled to the processor and adapted to store the one or more programming routines to be executed on the processor. The versatile controller also includes a plurality of field device input/output ports communicatively connected to the processor, a configuration communication port connected to the processor and to the memory to enable the controller to be configured with the programming routines and a second communication port which enables a user interface to be intermittently connected to the controller to view information stored within the controller memory.

Abstract: A dual mode configurator operates in an off-line mode to configure Fieldbus devices and/or segments in a typical manner and operates in an on-line mode to reconfigure or set certain parameters of a device when the device is connected to a segment controlled by a different host, without interfering with the on-line operation of the segment. The dual mode configurator can be used to configure an entire segment by configuring both network settings and device settings and, alternatively, can be used to configure device settings without effecting or interfering with the on-line system configuration information such as the network settings of a segment when, for example, a different host device or configuration device is connected to the segment to implement process control activities or to make segment changes.
