Abstract: An apparatus, method and system provides for dispensing liquid products to two or more appliances. Liquid diluent is communicated through an anti-siphon valve (64) connected in fluid communication to an aspirator (14). A mixed solution from the aspirator (14) is communicated to a distribution valve (36) for directing flow of a liquid product to two or more appliances using a single aspirating dispenser (12).

Abstract: A fluid dispensing system may include a fluid outlet connected to a flexible fluid reservoir and a docking station configured to receive the fluid outlet and align the fluid outlet. In some examples, a fluid pump that defines a driveshaft aperture that is connected to the fluid outlet. In some additional examples, a drive motor is attached to the docking station that includes a driveshaft for driving the fluid pump. The docking station may align the fluid outlet so that the driveshaft aperture defined by the fluid pump is co-axially aligned with the driveshaft. This may allow an operator to efficiently take an empty reservoir out of service and replace it with a new reservoir full of fluid.

Abstract: The present invention is both a method and an apparatus for utilizing a container/connector 10. The container/connector 10 holds a second liquid 110 that is mixed with a first liquid 12a in container 12. Then after mixing to form a use solution, the use solution flows back through the container 10 and out for use by a suitable applicator.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and system provides for accurately measuring and calibrating liquid products dispensed from a dispenser. A liquid diluent enters an aspirator assembly (12). A liquid product is drawn from a product container through a flow meter (36) into the aspirator assembly (12), wherein liquid product and diluent are mixed to dispense at the outlet of the aspirator (14). The flow meter (36) monitors the amount of liquid product drawn into and dispensed from the aspirator (14).

Abstract: A method and apparatus dispenses first and second fragrances by utilizing a fog nozzle in a ductwork of a facility. The first fragrance is dispensed, at intervals, through the fog nozzle into the ductwork and the second fragrance is dispensed after the first fragrance is dispensed, wherein fragrance desensitivity is reduced.

Abstract: An apparatus for diluting a liquid concentrate with a liquid diluent to form a use solution is provided. The apparatus includes an aspirator having a first inlet port, second inlet port, and an outlet port. A liquid diluent conducting means is connected to the first inlet port and a liquid concentrate conducting means is connected to the second inlet port of the aspirator for supplying thereto the liquid diluent and liquid concentrate respectively. Movement of a shut off valve and actuator valve operator controls both the shut off valve which is in fluid communication with the outlet port and the actuator valve which is in fluid communication with the liquid diluent conducting means to control flow of the liquid diluent.

Abstract: The present invention provides an arrangement of equipment and an overall process for the measurement and control of active bleach concentration in a bleach environment of an industrial laundry or cleaning system. As a preferred embodiment the primary piece of equipment which renders the overall system especially useful in controlling, for example, hypochlorite ion in a bleach environment is a membrane-shielded amperometric probe. The probe is designed and membrane selected to be highly selective to fluctuations in hypochlorite ion concentration.
