  • Patent number: 11938422
    Abstract: One illustrative system disclosed herein includes a separator vessel that is adapted to separate solids particles from a flow of a multi-phase fluid, a differential pressure sensing system that is adapted to measure a differential pressure of a column of the multi-phase fluid in the separator vessel and a control system that is adapted to determine at least one of a level, volume or weight of the separated solids particles within the separator vessel based upon at least the measured differential pressure of the column of the multi-phase fluid in the separator vessel.

  • Patent number: 9471940
    Abstract: Operational data and metrics from a Self-Service Terminal (SST) network are continuously acquired in a first format at a server. The first format is normalized and delivered to a configured mobile application on a mobile device. The mobile application selectively renders the operational awareness data/metrics for the SST network within one or more screens of a display on the mobile device. The operator of the mobile application can define views of the data/metrics, define alerts or notifications to propagate, and interact with the data/metrics to obtain more or less detail for that data/metrics.

  • Patent number: 8245076
    Abstract: A method and device are provided for initiating corrective actions for a terminal, such as an ATM. A method of initiating corrective actions for a terminal comprises, monitoring a fault status of a first component, detecting a fault status of the first component with a first trigger plug-in, activating a first action plug-in based upon the detected fault status of the first component, and recycling the first component.
