Abstract:
A system and method is disclosed for indicating satisfactory times for titrating a chemical solution, e.g., cleaning product, used by a utility device to clean and/or sanitize various types of articles. The utility device is described in an exemplary embodiment as being a warewashing machine that applies the chemical solution to articles provided to the machine on racks. The chemical solution is formed in a solution tank from a combination of at least one chemical product and at least one rinse agent. Whereas the chemical product is described as a detergent, the rinse agent is described as water. Over a time period including multiple wash cycles, the chemical product and the rinse agent are added to the solution tank, thereby changing conductivity of the chemical solution. The present invention senses various types of information associated with the formation of the chemical solution and applies one or more test conditions to the sensed information to determine satisfactory time periods for measuring concentration of the chemical product relative to the chemical solution. Indications of the occurrence of these satisfactory times are presented on a display module in a manner visible to field persons responsible for titrating the chemical solution.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention are directed to forming a seal around cables passing through an opening of a sealed enclosure in an efficient and cost-effective manner. In one embodiment, a cable sealing apparatus has a body including a plurality of grooves and a hinge. The body is foldable around the hinge to form a plurality of cable apertures from pairs of the grooves in a folded position. The body has a resilient material to form a seal around each cable disposed in a corresponding cable aperture upon being compressed by a force moving the body to the folded position. In another embodiment, a cable sealing apparatus has a body including a plurality of cable apertures each having a length. The body has a plurality of longitudinal slits each extending along the length of one of the cable apertures and disposed between the cable aperture and an external surface of the body. Each longitudinal slit is configured to be openable to receive a cable from the external surface of the body through the longitudinal slit into the cable aperture. The body has a resilient material to form a seal around each cable disposed in a corresponding cable aperture upon being compressed by a force transverse to a corresponding longitudinal slit.
Abstract:
A mounting method and a mounting apparatus to enable the level mounting of a first article to a second article. In accordance with one aspect of the present invention, an apparatus for mounting a first article to a second article to permit the level mounting of the first article comprises a bracket for fixed attachment to the second article, the bracket configured to receive the first article. The bracket has a level built into it, such that the bracket is installed such that the first article when mounted to said bracket is level.
Abstract:
A chemical dispensing system is provided having a micro-controller and at least one expansion module. The expansion module includes an expansion module interface. The expansion module is in communication with the micro-controller via the expansion module interface. The at least one expansion module expands capabilities of the chemical dispensing system beyond a base operation of the device.

Abstract:
An apparatus, for use with a fluid moving device that moves a fluid from a container. The apparatus includes a flowtube having a passage, the flowtube having a first end and a second end. A body is positioned in the passage of the flowtube, and a sensor array comprising at least two sensors is positioned along the length of the flowtube and between the first end and second end of the flowtube. The sensors in the sensor array sense (e.g., detect) the body as the body flows past the sensors. The sensors in the sensor array are adapted to generate signals, and a controller is operatively coupled to the sensor array. The controller is adapted to control the fluid moving device in response to the signals generated by the sensor array.
