  • Publication number: 20230194390
    Abstract: An automatic sampling apparatus for taking liquid samples for the qualitative or quantitative determination of at least one analyte contained in the sample liquid includes a sample line that can be fluidically connected to the sampling station, a pump device, at least one sample container that can be fluidically connected to the sample line, and an electronic control system. The electronic control system is configured to fluidically connect the sample line to the sample container such that a fluid flow path extending from the sampling station through the sample line into the sample container is formed. The electronic control system is further configured to transport, using the pump device, a definable volume of the sample liquid, in the form of a liquid sample, along the fluid flow path into the sample container. The sampling apparatus is configured for concentrating or extracting the analyte present in the liquid sample.

  • Patent number: 10571391
    Abstract: The present application relates to a method for adjusting a measuring device for measuring a measurand of a medium using at least one measuring sensor, including: laboratory calibration of the measuring device in a calibration solution, laboratory calibration of the measuring device in air, determination of a correction factor for correcting the laboratory calibration value of the measuring device in air to the laboratory calibration value of the measuring device in the calibration solution, on-site calibration of the measuring device in air, using the correction factor to correct the on-site calibration value of the measuring device in air, and on-site adjustment of the measuring device using the corrected on-site calibration value.

  • Patent number: 7428051
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device for the IR-spectrometric analysis of a solid, liquid or gaseous medium. The device includes a process probe, which has a reflection element. The device additionally includes a linear variable filter, at least one detector element, and a control/evaluation unit. At least one light source is also provided, the light of which is coupled into the reflection element via a collimating optics. At least one optical waveguide having a light input section and a light output section is provided. The light is guided via the light output section of the optical waveguide into a defined region of the linear variable filter. The detector element and the linear variable filter are arranged movably relative to one another over approximately the length of the linear variable filter. The control/evaluation unit determines the spectrum of the medium on the basis of the measured values delivered from the detector element.

  • Publication number: 20060254911
    Abstract: A gas sensor module includes: a primary sensor for the registering of a gas concentration; a digital data memory for storing sensor data or process data; and an interface for connecting to a superordinated unit for energy supply of the gas sensor module and for data exchange between the gas sensor module and the superordinated unit, with the interface being a contactless interface. A transmitter module operates at least one such gas sensor module and includes: a contactless interface for data exchange with the gas sensor module and for energy supply to the gas sensor module; and a communications circuit for output of at least one signal dependent on the measured data.

  • Publication number: 20030002240
    Abstract: An electrical device having components (1, 2, 3) that are arranged in a casing (4; 10) and are electromagnetically shielded in an outward manner. In the casing, spaces provided between the casing and the components as well as between the components themselves are completely filled with plastic parts (5, 6; 13) provided with ferrite particles (9). These plastic parts are preferably provided in the form of shaped plastic parts in which the components are held with form fit.
