  • Publication number: 20260071688
    Abstract: Zone control devices that integrate a valve, filter, and pressure regulator within a single device are provided. Specifically, the zone control devices include a main body having a base portion with an inlet passage and an outlet passage attachable to a conduit and a body portion extending from the base portion having an interior for receiving a filter. The zone control devices further include a valve bonnet including a solenoid bowl for attaching a solenoid. In some embodiments, an adapter removably couples the valve bonnet to the main body of the zone control device and forms an interface between the valve bonnet and the main body to operate the valve. The zone control devices also may include a pressure regulator in the vent flow path positioned in a vent flow path of the valve bonnet downstream of the solenoid for regulating pressure at the valve. In embodiments, the vent flow path is positioned to vent fluid into the main body downstream of the filter.

  • Publication number: 20190081479
    Abstract: A power supply system to be operatively connected to a grid, a load, and at least one auxiliary power node. The power supply system comprising at least one power control system comprising a device controller, a power integration system operatively connected to the at least one auxiliary power node, a power management board, and a user interface device operatively connected to the device controller. The device controller is configured to run software that displays a user interface on the user interface device that allows entry of configuration data associated with at least one of the grid, the load, and the at least one auxiliary power node and access to status data associated with at least one of the grid, the load, and the at least on auxiliary power node. The device controller controls operation of the power integration system and power management board using the configuration data.
