  • Patent number: 11073228
    Abstract: A diaphragm valve having a movable diaphragm (20) configured as a closure element has a valve housing (6) and an actuator (8), the diaphragm (20) being clamped between a flange (18) of the valve housing and a base (10) of the actuator (8) and being provided with a first identification means (32) in which data which are adapted to be read out wirelessly are stored. A further identification means (50, 56) is also fastened to the flange (18) and/or the base (10). The read-out surfaces of the further identification means (50, 56) are substantially at right angles to the read-out surface of the identification means (32) on the diaphragm (20).

  • Patent number: 10811806
    Abstract: A modular connection module for a field device is described, comprising an adapter board with at least one multipolar, universal contact area for the connection of plug-in connectors as well as a central electrical output interface for the electrical connection of the modular connection module to the field device. The multipolar, universal contact area is formed to accommodate plug-in connectors with different connection diagrams, wherein the connection diagram is defined by the arrangement of the contacts of the plug-in connector. Further, a plug-in connector assembly and a field device are described.
