Abstract: A sanitary fitting with a fitting body with a hollow cylindrical mixing shaft chamber in which a mixing shaft is rotatably supported about an axis of rotation. A hot and cold water inlet and a mixed water outlet open into the hollow cylindrical mixing shaft chamber, and wherein the mixing shaft has a control contour on the outer circumference which delimits a mixing chamber, which as a function of the rotational position of the mixing shaft fluidically connects the hot water inlet and/or the cold water inlet to the mixed water outlet in order to adjust a mixed water temperature. The mixing chamber of the mixing shaft is fluidically decoupled from the hot water or cold water inlet port while forming a fluid-tight valve gap between a sealing surface of the control contour of the mixing shaft and the inner peripheral wall of the hollow cylindrical mixing shaft chamber.

Abstract: A method for testing and/or correcting a fuel pressure sensor provided for detecting a fuel pressure in a combustion controlled internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle is disclosed. In at least one test run, the fuel pressure is changed from a working pressure value to a test pressure value when the combustion control is active. After the change of the fuel pressure a desired fuel injection duration and an actual fuel injection duration are compared with one another. An internal combustion engine device for carrying out the method is also disclosed.

Abstract: The invention pertains to a scale for determining the mass flow rate of bulk materials in accordance with the differential principle. In order to decouple a receptacle (1) that is freely suspended on a weighing device (1b, 1c) and arranged upstream of a processing machine, in particular, an extruder (10), from the bulk material flowing from a filling funnel (2) arranged directly above the open-top receptacle (1), a bottom outlet (2b*) of the filling funnel (2) can be closed with a slide gate (5) that is supported in a pivoted fashion and provided with a downwardly directed stripping edge (5b) on its front end. During the pivoting of the slide gate, this stripping edge clears the material backing up directly underneath the slide gate and thusly ensures the aforementioned decoupling.

Abstract: The invention relates to a novel process for using the yeast ADH II promoter system for the production of heterologous proteins in high yields, for example for preparing hirudins, miniproinsulins, leptins or derivatives thereof.
