  • Publication number: 20230207174
    Abstract: An electromagnetic actuator including a soft-ferromagnetic yoke is described. The electromagnetic actuator includes, an at least substantially cylindrical circumferential wall covered at a first end with a base and at a second end with a top, the circumferential wall defining an axis in a direction from the base end to the top. An intermediate yoke section holds a permanent magnet fixed that leaves an inner space housing an axially movable core element being flexibly restrained with at least one resilient element. One of a base yoke section and/or a top yoke section houses an electromagnetic coil.

  • Publication number: 20230107001
    Abstract: A method for installing a machine monitoring device which includes at least one gateway, at least one machine operation data sensor unit, a transmission unit having a transmission antenna for radio-based transfer of the machine operation data from the sensor unit to the gateway, and at least one user terminal for communication with the gateway. The antenna position is variable relative to the sensor and/or transmission units. The method steps include installing the gateway; establishing a communication link between the transmission unit and the gateway, positioning the transmission unit and antenna at or near the machine, transferring data packets to determine at least one communication parameter influencing the communication transfer quality, generating a position change instruction for the transmission unit or antenna and/or an action recommendation on the basis of the communication parameter, and displaying the instruction and/or recommendation at a user terminal.

  • Patent number: 10690129
    Abstract: A displacement pump arrangement, method for operating the displacement pump arrangement and a control device for controlling the displacement pump arrangement provide rotational-speed-variable control of an expeller pump unit for feeding a fluid. The arrangement includes an expeller pump and a drive, the drive being composed of an electric drive motor and a frequency converter, and a control device. The control device controls a state value such as a final pressure of the expeller pump a setpoint value. The control device detects state values of a control variable are supplied by the drive, in particular relating to the position, rotational speed and torque of the drive motor, and adjusts the displacement pump output to reach the setpoint value without using sensors.

  • Publication number: 20180208878
    Abstract: A method for the care and cleaning of automatic dishwashers, which eliminates grease and limescale deposits in an automatic dishwasher and which together with an automatic dishwasher detergent is usable in a normal dishwashing cycle. In a normal cleaning cycle for cleaning washware, in particular dirty dishes, using an automatic dishwasher detergent, a care agent for automatic dishwashers that is formulated separately from the dishwasher detergent is added, wherein the care agent contains (a) at least one nonionic surfactant and (b) at least one acid or a buffer system composed of at least one acid and at least one base, and wherein a 10 wt % solution of the care agent in water at 20° C. has a pH of <6.5.

  • Patent number: 9523365
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for closed-loop-control of a fluid conveying system that include at least one pump, at least one consumer, at least one controller valve, and at least one armature as an actuator of the at least one control valve. Pressure and volume flow rate of the consumer are controlled independently of each other by a decoupling controller.

  • Publication number: 20160250113
    Abstract: It has emerged that blonding pastes of relatively high oil content that have been thickened by specific polymers are especially table when the persulfates employed satisfy certain criteria. Blonding tablets including, based on their weight, 10 to 70 wt % of peroxydisulfate(s), 0 to 30 wt % of oil(s) and 1 to 20 wt % of disintegrant(s) made from cellulosic material that before being admixed to components a) and b) and before tableting has been compacted and takes the form within the tablet of compacted granules with a density of 0.3 to 1.5 g/cm3 exhibit increased chemical and physical stability and can be mixed readily with oxidant preparations to produce blonding compositions with stable viscosity.

  • Patent number: 9157440
    Abstract: In a method or system for controlling a process fluid stream within an industrial process plant, a pump is provided in series with a control valve having an associated positioner to control the fluid stream. A required fluid passage quantity for the process fluid stream is set by positioning the control valve with the positioner into a respective valve position and capturing an actual position of the valve. A physically sensible actual property value related to passage of the process fluid through the control valve is determined. The actual property value as well as the actual valve position are evaluated by an evaluation routine with respect to a predetermined optimization parameter specific to the valve with its associated positioner. If a deviation occurs from the optimization parameter, a pump drive value for the pump and control valve position drive value for the valve positioner are tuned to each other in such a way that the optimization parameter is approached.
