Abstract:
An insulated hose for a high voltage paint application apparatus comprising an inner hose containing a fluid or paint charged at a high voltage. The inner hose 1 is arranged inside at least one second insulating layer 2. A system for applying paint or other fluid materials at a high voltage is also described.
Abstract:
A robot controller for an industrial robot is described. The robot controller is a portable controller of the TPU Teach Pendant Unit type and comprises control means for moving a robot in three or more degrees of freedom. The TPU comprises a visual display and selection means associated with programming or controlling a robot. In other aspects of the invention a system comprising a robot and a control unit and the TPU are described. A computer program of the TPU for carrying out the method is also provided.
Abstract:
Sensor failure in an oil and gas production system is monitored and detected by checking the consistency of the measurements of the sensor in question using a computer-based process model with the measurements of the other sensors in the system. The present invention also generates a back-up value for a failing sensor with the process model by identifying the value that is most consistent with the measurements of the other sensors in the system.
Abstract:
A painting system having a painting robot with a stationary base mounted to a wall of a paint booth in cantilever fashion. A stand is mounted to the stationary base and is rotatable around a first axis that is disposed substantially horizontal. A first arm is rotatably mounted to the stand around a second axis, and a second arm is rotatably mounted to the first arm around a third axis. The second arm is operable to rotate around the third axis 180 degrees relative to the first arm. An end effector is connected between the second arm and a painting tool. The end effector is operable to orient the painting tool.
Abstract:
A system for operating an electric machine and a method for protecting an operation control unit in such a system. The system includes an operation control unit, an alternating current cable connecting the machine with the operation control unit and an electric short-circuiting arrangement. This arrangement is connected to terminals of the operation control unit facing the cable and short circuits these terminals based on a detected overvoltage.
Abstract:
An insulation cover for a high voltage paint dosing apparatus, the apparatus comprising a docking head arranged to receive at least one dosing cylinder filled with paint for dosing to an applicator or gun. The docking head is arranged substantially-surrounded by the insulation cover and whereby the external surface of the insulation cover is partly covered by a conductive or non-insulating layer. A system comprising the paint dosing apparatus with the insulation cover is also described.
Abstract:
A method for detecting water breakthrough in a well production. A model, of which the accuracy is known, will receive three of the four following parameters: inlet pressure, inlet temperature, outlet pressure, outlet temperature. The model includes a three-phase flash model including heat of evaporation of water and partial pressure of water with or without dissolved components lowering the vapor pressure such as salt and/or alcohol. Based on the three parameters the model computes the fourth parameter, whereupon the actual fourth parameter is measured and compared to the computed fourth parameter. If the deviation between the measured and the computed parameter is considerably larger than that which can be explained from the level of confidence of the selected model and uncertainty of measurement, it can be concluded that a water breakthrough has actually occurred.
Abstract:
A power system for dynamic positioning of a vessel. The power system reduces fuel consumption, carbon buildup deposits and the risk of cylinder bore glazing while in combustion engine driven generators and provides an adequate protection against blackouts. The power system includes first and second combustion engine driven generators, a battery unit, and a converter unit arranged to provide power to the vessel from the battery unit. A first operational state of the power system in which the first combustion engine driven generator is arranged to deliver power to the vessel, and a second operational state, in which the first generator is subject to a fault, the second combustion engine driven generator arranged to deliver power to the vessel, and the converter unit is arranged to deliver power to the vessel during transition between the states.
