Abstract:
Basic data storage units are defined as tags that each have a particular data value and represent a single piece of data storage representing a logged data value within a centralized data storage system. Each of the tags have associated properties representing metadata stored for each tag comprising a size of the data for that tag or a source of the data for that tag. Each entry into the centralized data storage system represents the particular data value of each of the tag at an instant in time. All data entries in the centralized data storage system comprise one each of the tags, the particular data value of the each tag, and a timestamp for the each tag.
Abstract:
A storage module for a hydraulic stored-energy spring mechanism for operating a high-voltage switch, for example a high-voltage circuit breaker, having a spring element which acts to store energy and having a fluid for transmitting the energy of the spring element, by a moving storage piston, to a piston rod for operating the high-voltage switch, wherein the storage piston projects into the housing which is filled with fluid and the housing forms a pressurized storage reservoir for the fluid. The pressurized storage reservoir is connected to a hydraulic system of the stored-energy spring mechanism by at least one channel element which projects into the pressurized storage reservoir and a pressurized channel which is connected to the channel element. The storage piston closes a subregion of the channel element starting from a specific piston stroke “s.”
Abstract:
A combined measuring and detection system is disclosed which includes an electronic evaluation unit for analyzing a broad frequency spectrum of measured quantities and one or more measuring devices for measurement of one or more of a magnetic field, an electric field, a current, and a voltage. The measuring devices are operatively connected to the electronic evaluation unit, which is provided with at least one frequency splitter dividing the measured quantities into a low frequency component and into a high frequency component. Low frequency components are used for measurement and protection analysis and high frequency components are used to detect partial discharges activity.

Abstract:
Linkage structure is connected between an operating mechanism and an actuating assembly of a circuit breaker for opening and closing an electrical contact of a pole assembly. The linkage assembly includes a lever to connect with the actuating assembly. A connection rod is coupled to one end of the lever and is associated with a close spring for closing the electrical contact. A spring structure is coupled to another end of the lever. The spring structure includes an open spring providing a spring force on the lever for opening the electrical contact. The open spring places the connection rod in tension. Retaining structure is associated with the lever and the spring structure to ensure that the spring force of the open spring, exerted on the lever, is directed to the retaining structure so that tension on the connection rod is removed, enabling the connection rod to be serviced.
Abstract:
A medium or high-voltage circuit breaker is provided. An arc-extinguishing fluid is stored in a pressure chamber, which is made up by an arcing chamber of the circuit breaker where an electrical arc is extinguished. No tubings or other conduction devices for pressurized fluids are necessary during current interruption. This speeds up contact separation and arc extinguishing. In a first, closed position of the circuit breaker, the pressure chamber is delimited by a sealing wall which is fixed to a movable first arcing contact. The sealing wall acts as a valve and as a piston at the same time, because it opens the outflow of pressurized arc extinguishing fluid and it concurrently actuates arcing contact separation. The arcing chamber enables the stored pressurized arc extinguishing fluid to perform fast contact separation within a few milliseconds and extinguishing a gaseous arc on the same timescale.

A method is disclosed of manufacturing a push rod for switching a vacuum interrupter by moulding the push rod with a plastic material. The push rod can include a core component configured for receiving a spring element. The push rod can also include a rod component which may include another second material, wherein a core component is embedded in the rod component to form the push rod.

A holding part is provided for connecting two pipes running parallel to each other, such as the two parallel measuring pipes of a Coriolis mass flowmeter, at a defined spacing. The holding part includes a first holding ring with a first holding opening for a first pipe, a second holding ring with a second holding opening for a second pipe, and a holding web firmly connecting the two holding rings and defining the spacing between the two holding rings. The holding part also includes a first slot running radially and having a first slot width in the first holding ring, a second slot running radially and having a second slot width in the second holding ring, and a slot width changing device, by actuation of which the first and the second slot width and therefore the diameter of the first and second holding opening can be changed simultaneously.
