  • Measurement of scale inhibitor in water systems
    Patent number: 9612204
    Abstract: A method for determining a concentration of a scale inhibitor in a water system that includes contacting a scale inhibitor with a dye in a capillary channel to form a complex effective to generate fluorescence; measuring a fluorescence signal generated by the complex; and, determining the concentration of the scale inhibitor based on the fluorescence signal.
    Type: Grant

  • Multilayer circuit board with electrically resistive heating element
    Patent number: 6114674
    Abstract: A multilayer circuit board and an associated heating apparatus is provided for heating electrical components. The multilayer circuit board includes a trace layer having at least one electrical trace terminating with a contact pad that is positioned to electrically contact a respective lead of an electrical component mounted upon the multilayer circuit board. The multilayer circuit board also includes a heating layer disposed in thermal contact with the electrical component mounted upon the multilayer circuit board. The heating layer includes a first electrically resistive heating element disposed upon an insulating substrate in general alignment with the electrical component mounted upon the multilayer circuit board. The electrically resistive heating element provides heat to maintain the operating temperature of the electrical component within a desired range.
