  • Patent number: 11787680
    Abstract: A fluid distribution system includes single use distributor manifolds each having a distributor manifold inlet and a plurality of distributor manifold outlets in fluid communication with the distributor manifold inlet. A set of single use filler manifolds can be sequentially connected to a respective one of the outlets of a single use distributor manifold immediately upstream of the connection point of the set of single use filler manifolds. In embodiments, an upstream distributor manifold can be used to feed fluid to a set of intermediary distributor manifolds where the set of intermediary distributor manifolds corresponds to the number of outlets of the upstream distributor manifold.

  • Publication number: 20230211263
    Abstract: A fluid filtration system includes a single use filter removably mounted to a cabinet of a workstation. The upstream end of the single use filter is in fluid communication with a pump via a fluid supply conduit that includes a test junction. An integrity test device is supported by the cabinet and is in fluid communication with the upstream end of the single use filter via a test conduit fluidly connected to the single use filter via the test junction of the fluid supply conduit. The integrity test device adapted to be connected to a source of pressurized gas and to selectively direct a flow of pressurized gas through the test conduit and the single use filter to perform a test operation on the single use filter.

  • Patent number: 7358878
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method of multichannel analog/digital (A/D) conversion, in which in a first and second channel respectively in a first or second channel provision area a first and second analog signal awaiting conversion is sampled by a respective first and second S/H (Sample & Hold) element and the respectively stored sample value thereof is applied as a channel sample to a first and second input of an analog multiplexer for selection, wherein the processing of the respective channel sample then takes place in a processing cycle of all channels by said channel sample being selected in the analog multiplexer by a digital selection control signal for the analog/digital conversion and provided as analog selection signal at an output of the analog multiplexer and after the respective channel provision area being converted in an analog/digital converter.

  • Publication number: 20070291738
    Abstract: To control a baseband processor within a wireless network, data transmission rules are implemented in respective hosts for first and second communicants, which guarantee data transmission there between according to the rules. Data packets are communicated over electromagnetic signal paths by high frequency transceiver of a WLAN card connected to the host by a WLAN card interface. A baseband processor, on the WLAN card, prepares data packets according to the rules. The first and/or second communicants are controlled by a protocol module in the host, using hardware driver in the host, avoiding WLAN card interface. WLAN card hardware operates solely according to conditions and restrictions of a data transmission rule agreed between protocol module and baseband processor, independent of conditions and restrictions of operating system and WLAN card interface and hence, a functional region is generated in the WLAN card with hardware and software interfaces, implemented according to the rule.

  • Publication number: 20060155978
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for initialising programmable systems, whereby the information necessary for initialising registers and internal and/or external components is held in an external memory and read out. The aim of the invention is a method whereby all registers and components may be initialised, a flexible initialisation of the external electronics is possible, the ASIC development is simplified and various types of EEPROM are supported.
