  • Publication number: 20040151656
    Abstract: A system for generating a molecular halogen gas using gas generation modules can provide a flexible platform for scaling to meet increasing demands within a facility. During normal operation, the system may be designed to have one gas generation module in standby mode while the others are in active mode. Adding or removing gas generation cells is relatively straightforward and does not require redesigning the system. The system can be designed with a level of redundancy that best fits the user's needs to allow for continuous uninterruptible operations. The system can be safer to use compared to other systems due to any one or more of electrolytic cell-rectifier pairs, individually exhausted cabinets, organization fluid flow paths and pressures, and the like.

  • Publication number: 20030231326
    Abstract: Information storage associated within a memory device is improved using a combination of compressed and non-compressed data storage formats. Font data may be stored without compression, thereby reducing the overhead associated with decompression and the need to supply sufficient memory to accommodate the font after decompression. Executable code is compressed for storage.

  • Patent number: 6637475
    Abstract: A bulk chemical delivery system, comprising: a bulk chemical canister that is connected to at least one manifold box, wherein each manifold box has at least two output lines, wherein each output line connects to a secondary canister. In non-limiting representative example, the bulk chemical canister may have a capacity of 200 liters. Also disclosed are novel manifolds for use in delivering chemicals from canisters and a transportation/containment cart.

  • Patent number: 6600616
    Abstract: Embodiments of a data storage tape control system and methods are disclosed that may work to correct off-track errors, reduce the frequency of off-track errors, and/or reduce the negative effects of off-track errors in writing performance. The invented method slows tape speed in response to off-track errors, preferably by continuously decelerating while attempting writing multiple retries. The invented method helps prevent further off-track errors and the resulting frequent interruptions of writing, by helping improve head placement accuracy. Once a selected amount of data is written, for example, a standard data-set or other block of data, the tape speed optionally may be accelerated to the original target speed. While the average tape speed may be reduced during the invented writing procedure, the overall efficiency of writing may be increased compared to an operation in which off-track errors and writing failures occur repeatedly because of high tape speeds.

  • Patent number: 6520218
    Abstract: In a first respect this invention is a container, comprising: a cylindrical, hollow body capped on both ends by a base and a top; a conduit that bisects the top and extends into the interior of the container; and a perforated housing that encompasses the portion of the conduit that extends into the interior of the container. In another broad respect, this invention is a removable splash guard, comprising: a housing having a top and bottom that define an internal space; a lower tube that bisects the bottom, wherein the lower tube has a upper portion which is angled; an upper tube that bisects the top, wherein a portion of the second tube that extends into the internal space contains at least one hole; and a partition interposed between the upper and lower tubes that serves to block movement of a chemical from the lower tube to the opening at the inboard end of the upper tube.

  • Patent number: 6457494
    Abstract: A chemical delivery system which utilizes multiple techniques to achieve a suitable chemical purge of the chemical delivery system is provided. A purge sequence serves to purge the manifold and canister connection lines of the chemical delivery system prior to removal of an empty chemical supply canister or after a new canister is installed. More particularly, a purge technique which may utilizes a variety of combinations of a medium level vacuum source, a hard vacuum source, and/or a liquid flush system is disclosed. By utilizing a plurality of purge techniques, chemicals such as TaEth, TDEAT, BST, etc. which pose purging difficulties may be efficiently purged from the chemical delivery system. The chemical delivery system may also be provided with an efficient and conveniently located heater system for heating the chemical delivery system cabinet.
