Abstract: A wireless device (10) sets up a first radio connection to a first access node (101-1, 101-2) of the wireless communication network. The first radio connection is based on a first radio technology. The wireless device (10) measures first signal strengths of reference signals from access nodes (101-1, 101-2) operating on the basis of the first radio technology. Further, the wireless device (10) measures second signal strengths of reference signals from one or more second access nodes (101-3, 101-4) which operate on the basis of a second radio technology. In response to the measured second signal strengths satisfying a first set of conditions, the wireless device (10) sends a first type of measurement report to the first access node. In response to expiry of a time interval without having sent the first type of measurement report, the wireless device (10) stops the measuring of the second signal strengths.

Abstract: A method for operating a separator for reducing cross-contaminations when processing products involves providing a separator insert on a frame or in a housing of the separator as a preassembled, exchangeable unit for insertion in stator units.

A starting product to be separated is introduced into the separator. A first and a second product flow separated from the product mixture are discharged out of the separator through the two separate product discharge lines during a separation operation of the separator. The separation operation is stopped and residual liquid remaining in the drum is drained.

Abstract: A method for dyeing a hook-and-loop fastener strap is disclosed. The hook-and-loop fastener strap continuously passes through a basic or neutral dyeing solution in a dyeing device. The dyeing solution attaches itself to the hook-and-loop fastener strap. The dyeing solution has a dye that binds to the hook-and-loop fastener strap only when the dyeing solution is in an acidic state. After passing through the dyeing device, the hook-and-loop fastener strap with the deposited dyeing solution is passed through a damper, causing the dyeing solution to become acidic. The dye adheres to the hook-and-loop fastener strap to dye the hook-and-loop fastener strap. A dyeing system for implementing the method is also disclosed.
