| 20100013462 | INSTRUMENT FOR AUTOMATION WITH SINGLE-HANDED OPERATION - In a measuring device for automation technology with single-hand servicing, a housing closable with a lid is provided. Arranged at an edge of the lid is a movable ring element, which is mounted to be slightly shiftable parallel to the longitudinal axis of the lid and to be rotatable about the longitudinal axis of the lid. On the lid are sensors, which serve for registering rotary and linear movement of the ring element, via which a display unit is operated. | 01-21-2010 |
| 20090302856 | Plug-In Module for a Liquid or Gas Sensor - A plug-in module for a liquid- or gas-sensor comprised of a sensor module (SM) and a sensor module head (SMH), which can be releasably connected together, and which, when connected, enable data and energy transfer via a galvanically decoupled transfer section, wherein the sensor module head (SMH) includes an energy supply unit for operating the sensor module head (SMH) and the sensor module (SM), as well as a data memory (MEM), in order to store sensor data received from the sensor module (SM). | 12-10-2009 |
| 20090301874 | Electrochemical Sensor - A combination electrode, including: A first tube; a measuring membrane, which sealedly closes the first tube to form a measuring chamber; a second tube, which surrounds the first tube and is connected borderingly with the first tube to form an annular reference chamber; a buffer solution located in the measuring chamber; an electrolyte solution located in the reference chamber; a first tapping electrode in contact with the buffer solution; and a second tapping electrode in contact with the electrolyte; wherein, additionally, arranged in the reference chamber is an axially shiftable, annular, sealing element, which bounds the volume occupied by the electrolyte solution, the sealing element is biased by means of an electrically conductive, elastic, deformation element, which surrounds the first tube, and the second tapping electrode is electrically connected with the deformation element, in order to tap the potential of the second electrode via the deformation element. | 12-10-2009 |
| 20090216511 | Sensor Simulator - Sensor simulator for testing behavior of a process installation as a function of signals of a sensor, whose signals are simulated by the sensor simulator, wherein the process installation includes at least one measurement path having a sensor interface for connecting the sensor, to which the sensor simulator can be connected, wherein the simulator includes a measurement path interface, which can be connected to the sensor interface of the measurement path, and outputs signals to the measurement path and/or receives signals from the measurement path; and a control circuit for simulation of signals, which form the output signal of the measurement path interface, wherein the signals include curves of measurement signals as a function of time. | 08-27-2009 |
| 20090210692 | Method for encoding data in a network used in process automation systems - In a method for encrypting data in a network of process automation technology, the data are encrypted in a control unit, which is connected with the network, in a separate, exchangeable software module. | 08-20-2009 |
| 20080247906 | Luminescence Sensor for Determining and/or Monitoring an Analyte that is Contained in a Fluidic Process Medium - A device for determining and/or monitoring an analyte contained in a fluidic process medium. The device comprises a sensor, which contains a process membrane with a porous support structure, a luminescent substance, that comes into contact with the analyte or gaseous process medium, being embedded in said support structure, an emitter unit, whose radiation excites the luminescent substance, causing it to emit luminescent radiation, a receiver unit, which detects the luminescent radiation and a control/evaluation unit, which determines the concentration or the partial pressure or pressure of the analyte using the quenching of the luminescent radiation of the luminescent substance. According to the invention, the porous support structure comprises plastic, ceramic, metal or foamed plastic. | 10-09-2008 |
