  • Publication number: 20240019299
    Abstract: According to an aspect, a UV radiometer is provided. The UV radiometer includes a sensor assembly and a sensor controller. The sensor assembly includes a UV sensor element and a temperature sensing component configured to perform a thermal adjustment of a sensed UV input from the UV sensor element to produce a compensated UV signal. The sensor controller includes a signal conditioning circuit configured to receive the compensated UV signal from the sensor assembly and produce a conditioned and compensated UV signal. The sensor controller also includes a communication interface configured to transmit the conditioned and compensated UV signal to a UV process controller.

  • Patent number: 5558616
    Abstract: The cover for a fixed angle centrifuge rotor has an array of container support surfaces depending from the lower surface thereof. Each support surface is substantially cylindrical in configuration and has an axis associated therewith. Each container support surface is associated with a respective one of the cavities formed in the rotor body. In the most general case, when the rotor cover is attached to the rotor body, the axis of each container support surface lies in the same common radial plane as do the axis of the cavity with which the support surface is associated and the axis of rotation. In the common radial plane, the axis of a support surface is inclined at a predetermined angle with respect to the axis of rotation. The axis of the support may further be arranged to lie in parallel relationship to the axis of the cavity with which it is associated, or may define a predetermined angle with respect thereto.

  • Patent number: 5512030
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a centrifuge rotor having a rotor body and an associated lid. A skirt with a radially outwardly facing surface thereon depends from the radially outer peripheral undersurface of the lid. A contoured cut-out is formed in at least the radially outwardly facing surface of the skirt. The undersurface of the lid radially outwardly of the skirt also has a generally contoured cut-out formed therein. The contours of the cut-out portions meld together and cooperate to define a smoothly curved concave undercut region below the periphery of the lid that accepts a lifting implement, whereby lifting or lowering of the rotor may be facilitated.
