Abstract: A bracket for securing a device to an elongate structure, the bracket comprising a body configured to hold the device, and a securing element attached to the body. The securing element comprises a pair of bosses, each boss comprising a slot, a core and an end surface. The bosses are arranged on the securing element such that the end surfaces define a gap into which the elongate structure can be received when the securing element is in a first position relative to the elongate structure and the slots are configured to receive the elongate structure upon rotation of the securing element from the first position to a second position relative to the elongate structure. The bracket is secured to the elongate structure by a gripping inter-engagement of the elongate structure and the bosses of the securing element in said second position.

Abstract: There is provided a condensate pump assembly (100) for use in an air conditioning system. The condensate pump assembly (100) comprises a pump (102) arranged in a housing (104) to pump liquid from a liquid inlet (116) towards a liquid outlet (106). The condensate pump assembly (100) further comprises a liquid receptacle (108) arranged, in a first position in the housing (104), to receive condensate from a condensate inlet (110) and to be in fluid communication with the liquid inlet (116). The liquid receptacle (108) is movable to a second position removed from the housing (104), whereby to empty the liquid receptacle (108). The condensate pump assembly (100) further comprises selective release (112, 114) means operable by a hand of a user to release the liquid receptacle (108) for movement from the first position towards the second position.

Abstract: A pump comprising a housing; a motor mounted in the housing and configured to drive a rotor mounted on a shaft connected to the motor, and a first connector and a second connector each secured to the housing. The first and second connectors are in fluid communication by a tube arranged in the housing. The first connector is configured to connect to a first fluid line and the second connector is configured to connect to a second fluid line. In use, the rotor is configured to urge fluid within the tube from the first connector to the second connector when driven by the motor. The first and second connectors are releasably secured to the housing.

Abstract: A liquid level detector for use in a pump control system comprises a chamber 20 for liquid, a liquid inlet 6 to the chamber 20, a liquid outlet 7 from the chamber and connectable to a pump, and a capacitive sensor comprising mutually spaced capacitive sensor elements (21, 22; 22, 23) forming a capacitance which is sensitive to permittivity within a region of the chamber proximate the capacitive sensor. The chamber is defined at least partially by a barrier member 25 and the capacitive sensor elements are provided on the barrier member outside the chamber.
