20090165528 | Method and Apparatus for Gas Filter Testing - A method is described to determine the remaining sorption capacity of activated-carbon-sorbent gas filters by measuring the breakthrough time for a test gas challenge to a test filter with known and controlled test conditions that include flow rate and temperature and the use of a calibration curve that has been established by prior testing of the test filter sorbent medium in calibration tests where the filter is exposed to a known quantity of gas surrogate for the challenge gases that the filter may sorb in service and then testing the test filter medium by challenge with a sparged gas that can be selectively detected to determine the breakthrough as a function of test gas. The apparatus using such a method comprises a portable system that includes a sparging test gas generator, a carrier gas system, a test filter canister holder, and a selective detector that can quantitatively monitor the test gas exiting the test filter canister. The method and apparatus can be used to determine the remaining sorption capacity of activated carbons filters, e.g., ASZM-TEDA carbon filters such as those used for building defense against chemical toxant attack, industrial accidents, and for tactical collective protection and for industrial ventilation and compliance with environmental regulations. | 07-02-2009 |
20120164742 | In-Line Derivatization Of Polyaminosaccharide Polymer For Analytical Determination - An analytic method for the determination of the concentration of polysaccharide polymer in solution comprises the in-line derivatization of the polymer by reaction with sulfonate dye. The reaction results in an analyte-derivative, carried in a mobile phase, that can be detected and quantitatively determined by ultraviolet absorption or by fluorescence measurement. The method can provide sensitive and precise measurement in spite of limited solubility of the analyte. | 06-28-2012 |
20130251590 | Peracid/Peroxide Composition, Process for Accurately Making the Same, and Method for Use as an Evaporating Film Anti-Microbial Solution and as a Photosensitizer - A method is provided for the microbicidal treatment of a surface such as sanitization, disinfection, sterilization, and decontamination of a surface or object by use of an anti-microbial composition comprising an aqueous solution of peracetic acid and hydrogen peroxide with acetic acid, water soluble polymer containing lactam, and phosphate ester surfactant and little or no stabilizer, and according to the method enhanced microbicidal efficacy is obtained when the composition is applied onto a surface as a thin film wetting the surface so that a shorter contact time for a desired fractional reduction in microbial population is obtained Still further, the compositions comprise photosensitizer for light-activated anti-microbial efficacy. | 09-26-2013 |

20090127795 | NON-CONTACT LABYRINTH SEAL ASSEMBLY AND METHOD OF CONSTRUCTION THEREOF - A non-contact labyrinth seal assembly, bearing assembly therewith, and method of construction thereof, has an outer rigid carrier and an inner sleeve. The carrier has an outer cylindrical flange and a radially inwardly extending leg and the sleeve has a cylindrical wall and a radially outwardly extending flange. A body is attached to at least one of the leg and the flange, wherein the body provides, at least in part, a purely non-contact labyrinth passage extending between the carrier and the sleeve. | 05-21-2009 |
20140159318 | NON-CONTACT LABYRINTH SEAL ASSEMBLY AND METHOD OF CONSTRUCTION THEREOF - A non-contact labyrinth seal assembly, bearing assembly therewith, and method of construction thereof, has an outer rigid carrier and an inner sleeve. The carrier has an outer cylindrical flange and a radially inwardly extending leg and the sleeve has a cylindrical wall and a radially outwardly extending flange. A body is attached to at least one of the leg and the flange, wherein the body provides, at least in part, a purely non-contact labyrinth passage extending between the carrier and the sleeve. | 06-12-2014 |
20140161381 | STABILIZED BACKING RING AND STABILIZING RING THEREFOR - An axle has a journal to which an antifriction bearing is fitted on an enlarged or dust guard section located beyond the journal, with a fillet leading from the journal up to the enlarged section. A backing ring fits over and against the fillet of the journal and has a counterbore that receives the adjacent end of the enlarged section. A stabilizing ring fits into the counterbore of the backing ring and around the enlarged section of the journal to stabilize the backing ring and thereby reduce radial and circumferential movement between it and the fillet of the journal. The stabilizing ring includes a rigidifying element that fits over the enlarged section of the axle with an interference fit and a more flexible compression member that lies within the counterbore where it exists in a state of compression between the counterbore and the rigidifying element. The stabilizing ring allows some microaxial movement of the backing ring. | 06-12-2014 |

20150159761 | Non-Contact Labyrinth Seal Assembly and Method of Construction Thereof - A labyrinth seal assembly, bearing assembly therewith, and method of construction thereof, has an outer rigid carrier and an inner sleeve. The carrier has an outer cylindrical flange and a radially inwardly extending leg and the sleeve has a cylindrical wall and a radially outwardly extending flange. A seal body is attached to at least one of the leg and the flange, wherein a labyrinth passage extends between the seal body and the sleeve, from an air side of the assembly to an oil side of the assembly, during normal use of the assembly. | 06-11-2015 |
