Abstract: The tap is actuated by an energy source and comprises sensors (13,31) to detect that the actuator operates the tap. A first sensor measures a magnitude representing the power consumed from the energy source. An electronic circuit (11,29) is connected to the first sensor and to a comparator (10,28) which, when the actuator operates the tap, compares the magnitude representing the power consumed from the energy source with a set value, and emits an instruction as a function of this comparison. In the case of a pneumatic energy source a pressurised fluid is used. The actuator has a pneumatic valve piston (5) and the first sensor (13) measures the fluid pressure on either side of the piston (5). In the case where an electrical current energy source is used. the actuator is an electro-mechanical transducer (23) and the first sensor (31) measures the electrical power consumed from the energy source at the time the tap is operated.

IPC: D21C9/10
Filed: 1998-03-10
Abstract: The invention relates to the use of ratios, products and non-linear functions of adsorption, emission or scattering of light as variables in standard regression and chemometric techniques to predict a characteristic or property of a solid or liquid. The use of one or more non-linear functions within a relationship between measured spectral properties and characteristic properties of solutions and solids provides an improved means to determine a property when the intensities represent or relate to components that are colinear or interelated due to restraints associated with composition, chemical processes, or molecular structure. The invention relates to the use of ratios of Raman peak intensities to predict the properties of a solution or a solid such as pulp that is processed with the solution. The intensity of the Raman shifted light is used to create Raman peak intensity ratios. These Raman intensities are related to the concentration of species dissolved in the liquid. The Raman spectra are baseline corrected and the scattering from a water reference is subtracted before extraction of intensities for Raman peak intensity ratios. The Raman scattering intensities provide a good measure of the concentration of small, oxygenated molecules. The potential of an oxidative reductive process is conveniently determined using Raman peak intensity ratios. Relevant small molecules and complex ions in the pulp and paper industry include SO4<2->, SO3<2->, H2O2, ClO2, HClO3, silicates, acetic acid, HClO3, Chlorate ClO3<->; Chlorous Acid HClO2, Chlorite ClO2<->, Hypochlorous Acid HClO. Hypochlorite ClO<->, phosphate, nitrate, nitrites. The method may also be used to determine a property related to the relative size, degree of polymerization, branching or network formation, of complexing or polymerized species. The method may also be used to measure large molecules such as hemicellulose, extractives and pectic substances.
