Abstract: A liquid cooling system having cooling units individually assigned to electronic component groups housed in a rack or a switchgear cabinet, which are to be cooled, and having a monitoring and control arrangement for monitoring a cooling temperature. Effective cooling and temperature monitoring is obtained because the cooling units are liquid cooling units and are connected via branch points to a common central liquid line system integrated into the rack or the switchgear cabinet. The control and monitoring arrangement is for monitoring the cooling temperature in the central liquid line system and for emitting an error signal when a predetermined or a predeterminable threshold temperature in a liquid return branch is exceeded, or when a predetermined or predeterminable threshold temperature difference between a temperature in an inlet branch and a temperature in the return branch is exceeded, or when the liquid flow falls below a predetermined or predeterminable threshold value.

Abstract: A laundry appliance includes a housing having a stamped section recessed relative to a front of the housing and circumferentially surrounding a loading opening to a rotatably mounted drum of the appliance. A door is disposed on the front of the housing for closing the loading opening. An edge of the door and a surrounding edge of the stamped section form a gap area between them when the door is in a closed position. An illumination device is disposed in the stamped section so as to be concealed behind the door when the door is in the closed position. Light of the illumination device is reflected at an edge surface of the stamped section and a surface of the door edge so as to provide an illuminating ring visible at the front of the housing in the gap area.

Abstract: A method and a device for detecting leaks in components conducting liquids by a sensor reacting to leaks. The component to be monitored is inserted into a closable envelope containing the leaked liquid. Electrodes are embedded into the envelope. The resistance and/or the capacitance between the electrodes is changed if leaking liquid enters the closed envelope. With a sensor connected to the electrodes, which reacts to the resistance and/or capacitance changes, a display and/or alarm signal is triggered. It is possible to monitor the entire component for leaks.
