  • Publication number: 20240097432
    Abstract: An industrial system includes a load control assembly, an integrated absence of voltage tester (AVT), and an absence of voltage indicator. The load control assembly has a supply input, a load output, a disconnecting device, and a load controller coupled to the load output, with the disconnecting device coupled between the supply input and the load controller. The AVT is integrated into one of the disconnecting device and the load controller, and the AVT configured to detect an absence of an operating voltage of the load control assembly. The absence of voltage indicator is coupled to the AVT and configured to indicate the absence of an operating voltage of the load control assembly detected by the AVT.

  • Publication number: 20190271692
    Abstract: The invention provides arrays of compound for use in profiling samples. The arrays include compounds bind to components of the samples at relatively low affinities. The avidity of compounds binding to components of the samples can be increased by forming arrays such that multivalent components of the samples (e.g., antibodies or cells) can bind to more than one molecule of a compound at the same time. When a sample is applied to an array under such conditions, the compounds of the array bind to component(s) of the sample with significantly different avidities generating a profile characteristic of the sample.

  • Publication number: 20140087963
    Abstract: Health is a complex state that represents the continuously changing outcome of nearly all human activities and interactions. The invention provides efficient methods and arrays for health monitoring, diagnosis, treatment, and preventive care. The invention monitors a broad range of identifying molecules from a subject, such as circulating antibodies, and the invention evaluates a pattern of binding of those molecules to a peptide array. The characterization of the pattern of binding of such molecules to a peptide array with the methods of the invention provide a robust measure of a state of health of a subject.
