Abstract: Proposed is an apparatus for measuring capsaicin in chili peppers. More particularly, proposed are an apparatus and a method for measuring capsaicin in chili peppers, the apparatus and the method being capable of measuring the capsaicin content of chili peppers simply and precisely. The apparatus includes: a first electrochemical measuring cell and a second electrochemical measuring cell into each of which a capsaicin extract is injected; a multiplexer electrically connected to a selected one of the first and second electrochemical measuring cells; a potentiostat applying voltage to the first or second electrochemical measuring cell and measuring an oxidation current value; and a controller controlling the potentiostat and the multiplexer to sequentially electrically connect the potentiostat to each of the first and second electrochemical measuring cells and measuring a first capsaicin content and a second capsaicin content on the basis of the oxidation current value as a function of applied voltage.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system for transmitting and receiving safety information, which generates first safety information about a control target and second safety information representing the occurrence or not of an error in the control target by using one microcontroller. The system includes a first slave controller generating first safety information and second safety information by using sensing data obtained from a control target and a master controller receiving the first safety information and the second safety information from the first slave controller through a wireless channel. When an error occurs in the first slave controller, the first slave controller transmits the second safety information to a second slave controller, and the second slave controller transmits the second safety information, received from the first slave controller, to the master controller.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a sealing material for hydraulic fitting flanges, in more particular, a sealing material which is configured in a specific shape, departing from the shape of traditional O-rings, to prevent it from being separated from fitting flange, improve assembly work efficiency, eliminating the necessity of extra work step(s) for maintaining it at the intended position, and provide it with excellent sealing and retaining performance. To achieve the above mentioned objects, the sealing material, in compliance with the invention in a torus shape, placed in the sealing material groove of fitting is characterized by its inner diameter side or outer diameter side being formed in the shape to match with, or to be in contact with the corresponding face of the sealing material groove, and the lateral sides connecting the inner and outer diameter surfaces are formed with protruded areas.
