Abstract: A fan arrangement has an electric motor (18) that serves to drive a fan wheel (26; 170) and that has an internal stator (44) and an external rotor (22), with which latter the fan wheel is drivingly connected. Arranged on a circuit board (17) are components (11) that are coolable, at least in part, by an air flow (13) generated during operation by that fan wheel (26; 170). Associated with the fan wheel is an air-directing element (100) that is mounted on the circuit board (17) separately from the electric motor (18) so that, in operation, a cooling air flow (13) is generated which emerges from the fan arrangement (16) between the circuit board (17) and air-directing element (100).

Abstract: A process and apparatus for the manufacture of high-strength, low-salt sodium hypochlorite. An aqueous solution that comprises certain weight percentages of sodium hypochlorite and sodium hydroxide and that is essentially free of sodium chloride (salt) crystals, an aqueous solution that comprises a certain weight percentage of sodium hydroxide, and chlorine in gas and/or liquid phase that may or may not include inerts are reacted in a tank. This creates a solution having a precipitation zone where salt crystals are precipitating out of solution and falling downward to form a slurry, some of which is withdrawn, then cooled, and then re-introduced into the precipitation zone. Above the precipitation zone is a crystal-free mother liquor zone consisting essentially of crystal-free mother liquor containing a weight percentage of sodium hypochlorite greater than that of than the lower strength aqueous sodium hypochlorite bleach being reacted.

Abstract: A method for producing a longitudinally welded hollow profile from a sheet metal blank having defined longitudinal edges, in which the sheet metal blank is initially preformed into an open seam profile with the aid of at least two tool parts allows for the economical production of accurately formed hollow profiles. This is achieved in that to produce the open seam profile, the sheet metal blank, by a change in the relative position of the tools parts, is placed freely around a mandrel positioned between the tool parts and extending in the longitudinal direction of the sheet metal blank, the outer shape of which mandrel determines the inner shape of the hollow profile to be produced, and in that the shaping of the open seam profile obtained is then completed in one or more stages in each case by a further change of the relative position of the tool parts.
