  • Patent number: 11858803
    Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for controlling a fuel delivery system to limit acidic corrosion. An exemplary control system includes a controller, at least one monitor, an output, and a remediation system. The monitor of the control system may collect and analyze data indicative of a corrosive environment in the fuel delivery system. The output of the control system may automatically warn an operator of the fueling station of the corrosive environment so that the operator can take preventative or corrective action. The remediation system of the control system may take at least one corrective action to remediate the corrosive environment in the fuel delivery system.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7783377
    Abstract: Substrate loading and unloading apparatus for automated loading and unloading of substrates (S) in a vacuum environment, for example the work region (A) of an electron beam lithography machine, comprises a substrate holder (13) with a substrate support table (17) and locating means (18 to 21) co-operable with the table to cause a supported substrate (S) to be pressed against and thereby located on the table (17). A vacuum vessel (10) defines a loading and unloading chamber (11) with a transfer port (12) which is communicable with the evacuated region (A) of the machine and permits transfer of the holder (13) between the chamber (11) and the region (A) entirely within the vacuum environment. Release means (22, 23; 28 to 33) are present to withhold the co-operation of the table and locating means and to provide a temporary substrate support clear of the table so that substrates can be transferred to and from the table.
