These wells can turn into a grave environmental concern, however, when they are found to be a breeding ground for unsafe bacteria and chemical contaminants.\nArsenic, one of the most dangerous, can have a serious negative impact on the health of individuals who drink the water. Resolution does not come easy—just getting the water tested is challenging, and then there is the daunting prospect of arsenic remediation.\nMaking this process easier is FREDsense Technologies Corp (FREDsense), a Calgary-based company that recently deployed new portable water instrumentation technology for testing water. This technology allows utility managers to make decisions surrounding water quality parameters directly on-site, with just an hour’s wait, as opposed to the traditional delay for costly results from an off-site analytical lab.\nIn a case study released recently, FREDsense shared that the FRED-Arsenic test kit measured in the low parts per billion range (μg/L) and has been used by utilities and consultants in California and Arizona. The study showed there are many groundwater wells and active arsenic remediation efforts with successful outcomes. FRED-Arsenic is used by utilities, mining companies, and other industries to detect arsenic quickly and accurately in groundwater on site. The FRED-Arsenic Kit is designed to measure the concentration of total arsenic and inorganic arsenic species within a water sample and assess arsenic levels in water in the field within an hour of sampling.\n“We are pleased to receive confirmation that the water quality test results from our FRED-Arsenic portable test kits were comparable to the samples taken in the same conditions and tested in a traditional lab. FREDsense is changing how the world approaches water quality monitoring and testing by creating test kits which are portable, can be used on site, and make it easier, faster, and more cost-effective to learn the contaminants in water and begin the remediation process,” said David Lloyd, co-founder and chief executive officer of FREDsense. “These test kits are just as accurate as the tests conducted in a lab.”\nA recent project goal was to trial the FRED-Arsenic system in an on-site environment over two days at four groundwater wells. Water samples with varying levels of arsenic were tested using the FRED-Arsenic sensor and the results were compared with results from the same samples by a third-party analytical lab. This validated the use case of the technology and proved the accuracy of the sensor in the field. The study partner uses an analytical lab for measuring the arsenic levels upstream and downstream of the remediation systems and they often wait 1-2 weeks to receive data from the lab. They are interested in adopting an on-site testing system so their operators can make decisions about the remediation process directly in the field.\nFRED-Arsenic results were compatible with the standard lab results, and the kit allows operators to get data in almost real-time. The test kit may be implemented across the entirety of their water quality testing infrastructure. FRED-Arsenic provided high-quality data comparable to that of the analytical lab (between ±1 – 2 μg/L). This revolutionizes how analytical chemistry is performed in-field, providing operators the opportunity to better understand their arsenic levels and to improve efficiency.\nFREDsense was the recipient of an arsenic field kit challenge award through the United States Bureau of Reclamation as well as other awards for its technology. They are in the process of securing series A funding for the FRED-Arsenic technology and other critically needed water quality testing products they have in development.\nAbout FREDsense Technologies Corp.\nFREDsense is a world leader in portable and rapid water instrumentation systems for the water industry. FREDsense analyzes water chemistry in real-time using next-generation biological sensor technology. With modular and customizable sensor solutions and results that are comparable to traditional analytical labs, FREDsense is moving analytical lab analysis into the field, saving time and money.

It covers testing and calibration performed using standard methods, non-standard methods, and laboratory-developed methods.\nThis standard, ISO/IEC 17025:2005, General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories, was first issued in 1999 by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). It was produced as the result of extensive experience in the implementation of ISO/IEC Guide 25 and EN 45001, both of which it replaced.\nISO 17025 contains all of the requirements that testing and calibration laboratories have to meet if they wish to demonstrate that they operate a management system, are technically competent, and are able to generate technically valid results. The standard requires laboratories to demonstrate continual improvement, perform regular internal audits to identify opportunities to make the test or calibration better and it drives the laboratory to keep abreast of scientific and technological advances in relevant areas.\nThe use of this standard applies to all organizations performing tests and/or calibrations. These include, first-, second- and third-party laboratories, and laboratories where testing and/or calibration forms part of inspection and product certification. ISO 17025 applies to all laboratories regardless of the number of personnel or the extent of the scope of testing and/or calibration activities. Laboratory customers, regulatory authorities and accreditation bodies may also use it in confirming or recognizing the competence of laboratories.\nLaboratories that use this standard will be able to:\n- Implement a quality system aimed at improving their ability to consistently produce valid results.\n- Seek accreditation from an Accreditation Body.\n- Demonstrate their customers and other interested parties that they are technically competent and able to produce precise and accurate test and/or calibration data.\n- Operate in many countries where most labs must hold accreditation in order to be deemed technically competent. In many cases suppliers and regulatory authorities will not accept test or calibration results from a lab that is not accredited.\nThis standard incorporates those ISO 9001 requirements that are relevant to the scope of testing and calibration services that are covered by the laboratory’s management system; therefore, all testing and calibration laboratories that comply with ISO 17025 will also operate in accordance with ISO 9001.\nThe following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of ISO 17025:\n- ISO/IEC 17000, Conformity assessment — Vocabulary and general principles\n- VIM, International vocabulary of basic and general terms in metrology, issued by BIPM, IEC, IFCC, ISO, IUPAC, IUPAP and OIML.", "domain": "instrument_science"} +{"url": "https://www.pavetechinc.com/skidabrader-skid-resistant-road-surfacing/", "date": "2022-10-04T17:30:58Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030337516.13/warc/CC-MAIN-20221004152839-20221004182839-00354.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9344276189804077, "token_count": 151, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2022-40", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2022-40__0__44492544", "lang": "en", "text": "The process is completely dry and dust-free, requiring no clean up and leaving behind a textured surface that is extremely receptive to vehicular tire adhesion.

For powder samples, approximately 5 g was used for each sample, in order to simulate an infinite layer thickness, placed directly onto Mylar film and exposed to X-rays for 300 s. The detection mode was universal, optimized for the mid-energy range of the 0-40 keV domain, experimental parameters being set at 40 kV tube voltage, ~11 μA current intensity, with no filtering of the incident beam, in air atmosphere. The instrument’s detection limit varies for each element as a function of the physics of the sample, down to ppm level.", "domain": "instrument_science"} +{"url": "https://www.respocare.co.za/post/understanding-oxygen-concentrators-the-science-behind-air-purification", "date": "2024-04-19T08:08:34Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817382.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20240419074959-20240419104959-00402.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9036588668823242, "token_count": 766, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2024-18", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2024-18__0__170058888", "lang": "en", "text": "Oxygen concentrators are ingenious devices that have revolutionized respiratory therapy, offering a continuous supply of oxygen to those in need. But how do these life-saving machines work? At the heart of their operation is a fascinating process that transforms ambient air into a more breathable, oxygen-rich form. Let's delve into the science behind oxygen concentrators and explore the principle of swing air absorption as an essential air purifying technique.\nAmbient Air: The Starting Point\nThe air we breathe isn't pure oxygen; it's a mixture of gases, primarily nitrogen (approximately 78%), oxygen (around 21%), and small amounts of other gases. An oxygen concentrator begins its work by pulling this ambient air into the system, which serves as the raw material for oxygen production.\nCompression and Filtration: Initial Steps\nOnce inside the machine, the ambient air is compressed to a high pressure. This step is critical as it prepares the air for the separation process by condensing the air and increasing the oxygen-to-nitrogen ratio. The compressed air is then passed through a series of filters to remove impurities, dust, and bacteria, ensuring the air entering the next stage is clean and ready for oxygen extraction.\nThe Heart of the Machine: Swing Air Absorption\nThe core technology behind oxygen concentrators is a process known as Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA). This technique leverages the unique properties of a material called zeolite, a microporous mineral with the remarkable ability to selectively adsorb nitrogen from the air.\nIn a typical PSA system, the concentrator contains two zeolite-filled towers. As compressed air flows into the first tower, the zeolite beads adsorb nitrogen, allowing oxygen, which is not absorbed, to pass through. This results in a stream of oxygen-enriched air available for the patient. Meanwhile, the second tower stands by in a regenerative phase, releasing the trapped nitrogen back into the atmosphere through a depressurization process.\nThis \"swing\" between adsorption and regeneration between the two towers allows the concentrator to produce a continuous flow of oxygen. The rapid cycling between the two states—pressure (adsorption) and release (desorption)—ensures an uninterrupted supply of purified oxygen.\nAdvancements and Efficiency\nModern oxygen concentrators are designed to be highly efficient, utilizing advancements in materials science and engineering to enhance the PSA process. They can adjust the flow rate and purity level according to the patient's needs, providing a tailored respiratory therapy experience.\nFurthermore, recent developments aim to reduce the size, noise, and power consumption of these devices, making oxygen therapy more accessible and comfortable for users worldwide.\nEnvironmental Impact and Energy Use\nAn additional benefit of oxygen concentrators is their environmental friendliness compared to traditional oxygen tanks. By utilizing ambient air, concentrators eliminate the need for tank refills or liquid oxygen deliveries, reducing the carbon footprint associated with transportation and production.\nHowever, as electrical devices, the energy efficiency of oxygen concentrators is a topic of ongoing improvement. Manufacturers and researchers continue to strive for models that offer the highest oxygen output with the lowest possible energy consumption.\nConclusion: A Breath of Fresh Air\nThe science behind oxygen concentrators showcases a brilliant application of physical principles and materials science to meet a critical healthcare need. The PSA technology, particularly the swing air absorption process, exemplifies how advanced engineering can transform everyday air into a life-sustaining resource. As technology advances, these devices will continue to improve, offering better, more efficient, and more accessible treatment options for those requiring oxygen therapy.\nIn essence, oxygen concentrators embody a significant scientific leap, turning the air around us into a vital source of health and well-being.", "domain": "instrument_science"} +{"url": "https://highyieldconservation.org/understand-the-motor-and-drive-design-process/", "date": "2022-09-29T18:25:45Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030335362.18/warc/CC-MAIN-20220929163117-20220929193117-00276.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9058018922805786, "token_count": 1421, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2022-40", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2022-40__0__271622087", "lang": "en", "text": "The purpose of the motor is to create torque and ultimately the rotational motion of other equipment. The torque depends on a flux wave in the air gap and the relative speed of the rotor to this flux wave. The strength of the flux wave depends on the voltage and frequency applied across the stator terminals, as shown in Equation 1:\nØ = V/f\nA load applied to a motor reduces the speed of the rotor (increased slip). The speed becomes constant when the motor torque matches the load torque but the rotor stalls if the load exceeds the maximum torque (breakdown torque).\nA VFD controls both voltage and frequency to produce a constant flux, thereby maintaining maximum torque at various speeds. The VFD rectifies the AC power in the inverter module, then converts it back to AC power by wave modulation.\nIn this process, harmonic waves and short duration insulation erosion voltage spikes are also generated in amplitudes depending on the carrier frequency of the VFD and its circuitry, as well as any included filtering, if necessary. The output voltage of a VFD is critical information for the motor manufacturer. The motor manufacturer should consider the effects of the VFD in terms of size, cost, and best motor-VFD performance. Here are the key points to consider when designing a custom motor to run on a VFD.\nThe flux and current density create a current concentration at the top of each rotor bar (skin effect). This effect is responsible for generating the starting torque (locked rotor torque) and keeping the starting current (locked rotor current) below a target value during acceleration of the mains-powered motor.\nWhen it comes to a VFD, the skin effect is no longer relevant to allowing a motor to accelerate and maintain low starting current. Nevertheless, it is necessary to limit the time harmonic generated by the VFD due to its ability to create heat losses. However, the breakdown torque is critical and must match the needs of the application for fast speed response, loading, and achieving the desired speed in the targeted constant power region.\nProper sizing of the rotor is essential. Increasing the number of bars of the rotor or its length, thus also changing the dimensions of the stator, are examples of design adjustments to increase torque. The VFD must supply enough current to generate the required torque during normal and overload operation, but a motor specially designed to match a VFD can limit the current to avoid applying a larger and more expensive VFD. This action results in a lower system acquisition cost.\nWhen mains power is supplied to a motor, slot magnetic leakage saturation, rotor static and dynamic eccentricities, and number of rotor and stator slots, among others, can generate harmonics at the fundamental frequency. The results are mechanical losses and stresses, which the harmonics introduced by the VFD increase in quantity. These harmonics create parasitic radial torque, leading to additional vibration and heat if not taken into account in the motor design.\nThe electricity consumption of industrial electric motors is increasingly becoming a critical criterion in motor design. Many countries have regulations for small AC induction motors (below 375kW) because they represent, by far, the largest amount of induction motors in operation and therefore have the most impact on electricity consumption.\nAlthough there are no regulations for large machines up to several megawatts, efficiency is relevant as they are responsible for 23% of electricity consumption.¹\nEfficiency is the ratio between the power delivered to the shaft and the input power at the motor terminals. The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 60034-2-1 and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 112 have helped industries develop test procedures to determine the efficiency of motors by testing or calculating losses. The efficiency test includes the determination of motor losses called:\n- I²R stator\n- friction and drift\n- core losses\n- parasitic load losses\nParasitic load losses, which occur on stator and rotor cores and other metal parts, eddy current loss in rotor bars and stator windings are difficult to predict and measure. Considering the harmonics generated by the VFD complicates this challenge.\nThe heat dissipation capacity is a determining factor in the size of the machine and the respect of its temperature rise class. The motor manufacturer should design an efficient internal airflow path and provide independent external air cooling for constant torque applications.\nStandard bipolar motors have a critical speed below their rated speed, which resonates amplifying vibration to the point of equipment damage if the drive operates the motor at or near critical speed. The motor manufacturer will need to know if the operating speed range will cross the critical speed to provide a solution which may be vibration damping, modification of the motor critical speed or programming the VFD to avoid the critical speed region .\nThe voltage waveform provided by the VFDs consists of pulses with rapidly rising peaks, behaving like surges in the connected motor winding. These differ from regular sine waves. The impedance mismatch between the power leads and the stator will increase the voltage by reflection. Over time, the stator insulation will deteriorate and fail if these fast growing spikes are not addressed.\nAn actual waveform representing total harmonic distortion is valuable information but not always provided, requiring the motor manufacturer to make assumptions. Overestimating or underestimating the harmonics leads to an additional cost for the user. In the absence of such data, a manufacturer may decide not to offer an engine due to the high level of risk.\nMotors and drives\nSourcing a motor and variable frequency drive (VFD) from the same manufacturer can offer advantages. Medium voltage motors over 375 kilowatts (kW), up to several megawatts, are made-to-order, custom-designed, and expensive. Combining a motor with a VFD system designed and produced by the same manufacturer can offer:\n- maximum system longevity\n- reliable and continuous operation\n- reduced electricity consumption\nIf the motor and the VFD are from separate sources, an efficient exchange of information between the equipment suppliers and the system integrator is necessary to match the specified system application results.\nThe decision factors above do not cover all aspects when designing an electric motor or integrating a VFD, but are provided to demonstrate the complexity of the custom motor design process, which can encourage the integrator or end user to purchase the equipment from the same manufacturer.\nInduction Machine Design Handbook – 2nd Edition Ion Boldea/Syed A.

With four times the resolution of standard HD, 4K cameras capture images with stunning precision and lifelike quality. This has opened up new creative possibilities for filmmakers, allowing them to capture even the most subtle details in their shots. But 4K technology is not just limited to the film industry; it has also found its way into other fields such as sports broadcasting, surveillance, and even gaming. As more and more devices adopt this technology, it’s clear that 4K is here to stay. In this blog post, we will explore the recent advancements in image sensors, processors, and HDR technology that have made pro 4K cameras even more powerful tools for capturing stunning visuals.\nAdvancements in Image Sensors and Processors\nThe advancements in image sensors and processors have played a significant role in enhancing the quality of 4K cameras. With the rise of 4K technology, manufacturers have been working tirelessly to improve the image sensors used in these cameras. The latest image sensors are designed to capture more light, resulting in brighter and clearer images.\nOne of the most significant advancements in image sensors is the introduction of back-illuminated (BSI) sensors. Unlike traditional front-illuminated sensors that have wiring and transistors blocking some light from reaching the sensor, BSI sensors move these components behind the photodiodes, allowing more light to reach the sensor. This results in better low-light performance, reduced noise levels, and improved color accuracy.\nAnother notable improvement is the use of larger sensor sizes. Larger sensors can capture more light, resulting in better dynamic range and less noise. While full-frame sensors were once reserved for high-end cameras, they are now becoming more common even in consumer-grade 4K cameras.\nIn addition to improvements in image sensors, processors also play a crucial role in enhancing image quality. The processor is responsible for processing the data captured by the sensor into a final image or video. With faster processors, cameras can capture higher frame rates and process larger amounts of data quickly.\nOne example of a powerful processor used in 4K cameras is the Bionz X processor from Sony. This processor is capable of processing large amounts of data quickly while delivering high-quality images with minimal noise levels.\nAnother feature that has become increasingly popular among camera manufacturers is dual processors. Dual processors allow for faster processing speeds and better overall performance when capturing high-resolution videos or images.\nHigh Dynamic Range (HDR) Technology\nHigh dynamic range (HDR) technology is a recent advancement in the field of digital imaging. HDR technology allows for a greater range of brightness and color to be captured, resulting in more realistic and visually stunning images. This technology has been incorporated into many 4K cameras, making them capable of producing high-quality images with exceptional detail and clarity.\nWhat is HDR?\nHDR technology works by capturing multiple exposures of the same image at different brightness levels. These images are then combined to create a single image that contains a wider range of brightness and color than would be possible with a single exposure. The result is an image that appears more true-to-life, with greater detail in both highlights and shadows.\nHDR technology has become increasingly popular in recent years as more devices have become capable of displaying HDR content. Many modern televisions, computer monitors, and mobile devices support HDR, allowing viewers to experience the full range of colors and brightness captured by HDR-enabled cameras.\nBenefits of HDR\nOne of the primary benefits of HDR technology is its ability to capture more detail in both bright and dark areas of an image. This means that images captured with HDR-enabled cameras appear more realistic and visually striking than those captured without this technology.\nHDR also allows for greater flexibility when it comes to post-processing images. Because HDR captures multiple exposures at different brightness levels, photographers can adjust the exposure settings after the fact to achieve the desired look without sacrificing detail or quality.\nAnother benefit of HDR is its ability to accurately reproduce colors. By capturing a wider range of colors than traditional imaging techniques, HDR ensures that colors appear vibrant and true-to-life in final images.\nPotential Applications of 4K Technology\nAs technology continues to advance, the potential applications of 4K technology are becoming more and more apparent. From film and television to photography, there are numerous ways in which 4K cameras can be used to enhance image quality and create stunning visuals.\nFilm and Television\nOne of the most obvious applications of 4K technology is in the film and television industry. With the rise of streaming services like Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, there is a growing demand for high-quality content that can be streamed on large screens. This means that filmmakers need to produce content that is not only visually stunning but also has a high resolution.\n4K cameras allow filmmakers to capture images with four times as many pixels as traditional HD cameras. This means that they can capture more detail, which results in sharper images with greater depth and clarity. In addition, 4K cameras have a wider color gamut than traditional HD cameras, which means they can capture more colors and shades.\nAnother advantage of using 4K cameras in filmmaking is that they allow for greater flexibility in post-production. Filmmakers can crop or zoom into footage without losing resolution or quality, which gives them more creative control over their final product.\nWhile 4K technology is often associated with video production, it also has numerous applications in photography. One area where it has been particularly useful is in sports photography.\nSports photographers often need to capture fast-moving subjects in low-light conditions. This can be challenging with traditional cameras because they struggle to capture enough light quickly enough. However, 4K cameras have larger image sensors than traditional cameras, which allows them to capture more light and produce clearer images even in low-light conditions.\nIn addition to sports photography, 4K cameras are also being used for landscape photography. With their ability to capture fine details and vivid colors, they allow photographers to create stunning images that are full of depth and texture.\nIn conclusion, the advancements in 4K technology have revolutionized the film and photography industry. With the introduction of high-quality image sensors and processors, along with HDR technology, professionals can now capture stunning visuals with unparalleled detail and clarity.

Improved precision of assembly equipment enable us to support the high precision of unit products.\nMeasurement, Evaluation, and Analysis\nHigh-quality products require precise and accurate measurements and measurement technologies. High image quality required for the latest smart phone cameras is made possible by surface profile precision with design errors of 0.3 um or less, and these requirements are becoming more stringent year after year.\nNeedless to say, peripheral components around lenses also need to have high precision. In particular, lens holders to house lenses usually have a complex three-dimensional shape, which requires measurement, analysis and evaluation technologies using a 3D measuring instrument.\nWe are also focusing on evaluation technologies for lens units that are composed of these components. In addition to failure analysis and reflectivity and transmittance measurements by measuring eccentricity and distance between lenses, we have become able to perform MTF measurements using wide angle lens units of 190 degrees or more and also using a sensor unit supporting near infrared, as well as characteristics evaluation under temperature ranges from -40 to +130 degrees C.\nNissei Technology is always working on improving measurement and evaluation technologies to support your various requirements.", "domain": "instrument_science"} +{"url": "https://www.owczarzy.net/abstr21.htm", "date": "2022-07-01T22:51:33Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-27/segments/1656103947269.55/warc/CC-MAIN-20220701220150-20220702010150-00696.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9342162609100342, "token_count": 280, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2022-27", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2022-27__0__272066147", "lang": "en", "text": "Rapid and accurate bacterial detection methods are needed for clinical diagnostic, water, and food testing applications.

The intense flashes of energy blaze for only a millisecond and then disappear. Although they can only be seen for a brief moment, the radio waves have travelled for billions of years through an ionized cosmic structure to be visible in the sky.\n“Currently, most FRB positions are so imprecise that astronomers don’t even know which galaxy they come from,” Bandura said. “The new telescope, Outrigger, will solve that problem, determining the particular galaxy, and will go further, localizing the source to a specific region within the galaxy.”\nThe new Outrigger telescope will work in conjunction with the existing Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment, or CHIME, telescope, which is located half a continent away in British Columbia, to triangulate the locations of FRBs.\n“The CHIME telescope will be making the detection, but the data will be saved from both telescopes, then we can use very long baseline interferometry techniques to really localize where it comes from,” Bandura said.\nThe CHIME telescope is comprised of four cylindrical reflectors, 256 dual-polarized antennas for data collection and an F-engine and X-engine for data processing. To search for FRBs, CHIME continuously scans 1024 separate points on the sky. The new Outrigger telescope will have only one cylinder but will monitor the same area of the sky as the original CHIME telescope.\n“From this, we will be able to understand a lot about what is happening between us and the FRB,” Bandura said. “So, if we can actually localize where it is and understand where it came from, we can use that information from the detection to understand what’s in between us and the source.”\nThe development of this program will open the door for additional outriggers to be built later, allowing even sharper localization of radio bursts, and will pave the way for future construction of larger low-cost, high-throughput telescopes for more advanced transient searches and intensity mapping efforts to probe deeper into the cosmos.\nCONTACT: Paige Nesbit\nStatler College of Engineering and Mineral Resources\nCall 1-855-WVU-NEWS for the latest West Virginia University news and information from WVUToday.\nFollow @WVUToday on Twitter.", "domain": "instrument_science"} +{"url": "https://2rdrilling.com/equipment/cme-continuous-sample-tube-stabilized-system/", "date": "2023-12-06T13:58:46Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-50/segments/1700679100599.20/warc/CC-MAIN-20231206130723-20231206160723-00712.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.94297856092453, "token_count": 432, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2023-50", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2023-50__0__59873175", "lang": "en", "text": "The patented CME Continuous Sample Tube System is a sampling device that was developed to provide continuous sampling when drilling with hollow-stem augers. The specimen enters the sampler barrel as the augers are advanced. Drilling fluids or air are not required.\nThe CME Continuous Sample Tube System consists of a 3″ x 5 ‘ sample tube with a cutting shoe that extends below the auger cutter head. The sample tube is operated on a hexagonal shank-and-socket drill stem column. The shank-and-socket drill stems are connected through a bearing assembly to the drill rig feed system and to a stabilizer plate to positively prevent rotation of the sample tube with rotation of the hollow stem augers. The first drill stem in the column has an adjustable length for varying the amount the sampler protrudes below the auger cutter head.\nThe stabilization of the sample tube, the tube extension adjustments and the clearance ratio of the cutting shoe with the sample tube are all important to sample recovery and sample quality. Tube stabilization has proven to be very important in providing the most consistent and highest quality sample.\nBoth clear plastic liners and steel liners can be used inside the sample tube to retain the sample. The use of the clear plastic liners allows you to visually examine the sample in the field and yet keep it contained for transport to a lab and later testing. The clear plastic liners can be reused several times.\nThe CME Continuous Sample Tube System has been used very successfully on many projects for various purposes in a variety of soil types. With this sample system, very efficient continuous sampling can be performed to provide a complete soil profile. Obtaining 95 to 100 percent recovery is more the rule than the exception. The variety of materials that can be sampled include silt, clay, some granular soils, glacial till, coal, shale, mine tailings and others.\nOne type of project where the continuous sample is used extensively is environmental projects where chemical or radiological contamination is suspected.

Unfortunately, the decision to buy a binocular can be very difficult when presented with the huge array of possible choices available. Our aim in answering these commonly asked questions is to give you the best possible advice, so you can choose binoculars that really do fit your needs.\nWhat do the numbers in a binocular name mean?\nThe numbers describe the configuration of a binocular. Let’s take 8×42 binoculars as an example. The first number (8) refers to the magnification, or, how many times closer an object will appear when looking through the binocular compared to looking through eyes only. The second number (42) indicates the diameter of the objective lens (the light-gathering lens) of the binocular and is measured in millimeters.\nNote: The diameter of the objective lens is directly related to the size of the binocular — the larger the objective lens, the larger (and often brighter) the binocular.\nHow much magnification do I need?\nYou will want a binocular with magnification appropriate to how you plan to use your binoculars. So, think about the demands of your hobby before you select a pair of binoculars. How much detail do you need to see? Will you use your binoculars to view things close up or far away? Will you be able to prop your arms on something for support while using your binoculars? Do I want a small binocular that I can take anywhere?\nThe most popular binoculars are those with lower magnifications (as with 8x binoculars). These binoculars have wider fields of view and are easier to hold steady than the binoculars with higher magnifications. A wider field of view is important when trying to follow fast-moving action like game on the move, warblers on the wing, or athletes at a fast-pace sporting event.\nHigher magnifications (as with 10x binoculars) will give you more detail, but are more difficult to hold steady than binoculars with lower magnification. Binoculars with higher magnification also have narrower fields of view. While many people choose to use 10x binoculars, they are deciding that image size and detail is of greater importance to them.\nNote: The diameter of the objective lens is directly related to the size of the binocular — the larger the objective lens, the larger (and relatively brighter) the binocular.\nWhat are Porro prism binoculars and roof prism binoculars?\nRoof prism, Porro prism (and reversed Porro prism) binoculars each use image-erecting prisms to provide correctly oriented images. You will recognize the Porro prism as a “traditional” binocular design with offset prisms while the roof prism binocular has parallel barrels and a more streamlined appearance. The size, design and quality of the prisms used in the binocular design affect what you see and how clearly an image appears across your viewing area. You may prefer one binocular over another because of the design.\nPorro Prism Binoculars\nPorro Prism models will deliver the best optics for the dollar, but lack the durability and compact styling of roof prism models.\nReversed Porro Prism Binoculars\nThis design allows for a compact binocular that easily fits in your hand.\nRoof Prism Binoculars\nRoof Prism models will deliver more durability but you will need to spend more money to get good optical quality in this design.\nWhat size binocular do I really need?\nBinoculars can be classified as either full-size or compact binoculars. The size of the objective lens affect how large or small a binocular is.\nFull-size binoculars (like an 8×42 binocular) offer the greatest light gathering ability and over-all optical performance.\nCompact binoculars (like an 8×25 binocular) are more portable than full-size models and work well during daylight hours, but not during twilight or in deep shadows.\nWhat is the field of view in a binocular?\nWhen you look through your binoculars, the widest dimension you can see is known as the field of view. Some binoculars will feature unique lenses to provide a “wide field” that is greater than normally seen through binoculars of the same magnification.\nA wide-field binocular is desirable for observing at close quarters in deep woods or picking up anything that is moving quickly across your viewing area.\nNote: The field of view decreases as magnification increases, so select a binocular with lower magnification if a wide field of view is important to you (or select a binocular with a wide field feature).\nHow much should I spend on a binocular?\nBuy the best quality binoculars you can afford. This will allow you to spend the greatest possible time with your binoculars pressed to your eyes. You’ve probably heard the old statement about fishing that says “to catch fish, you need to have your line in the water”. Well, you won’t see more detail unless that binocular is at your eyes. Poor quality binoculars usually spend a lot of time just dangling from the neck.\nNote: Poor quality binoculars also lead to eyestrain, headaches, and are not very fun to use for any length of time. In the long run, you’ll probably save money if you initially buy better quality binoculars and avoid trading up later. In the meantime, you’ll see so much more–so much better!\nHow does optical glass enhance binocular image quality?\nThe optical glass used in a binocular affects the image quality you see through your binocular. The objective lens of a binocular refracts or “bends” light, attempting to direct that light to a certain focal point at some distance behind the lens of the binocular. Each color or frequency within the visible light spectrum has its own characteristics. As the light passes through the lens, each color bends at a slightly different angle than any other color and, therefore, the various colors focus at different points. The result is a lack of image sharpness and poor color quality.\nCertain binoculars incorporate special cost- and labor-intensive glass in the objective lens to correct for chromatic aberration and color fringing. You’ll hear about ED (extra low dispersion) and HD (high definition) glass. When used in binoculars, these glasses provide highly resolved images with enhanced brilliance and exact “true-to-life” color. Even the finest structures will show up well in high contrast and clarity.\nNote: For the more serious observer, the enhanced image quality will be worth the extra cost.\nWhat about light transmission and optical coatings?\nLight transmission describes the percentage of available light that passes through your binoculars. The amount of light can be increased with the use of anti-reflective coatings on binocular lenses. When an anti-reflective coating is applied to the glass surface of a binocular it increases the amount of light that reaches your eye.\nThe more complete and complex the coating scheme is, the brighter and sharper the binocular image will be. Better coatings on a binocular allow more light to reach your eye, improving brightness and overall binocular performance.\nWhat if I wear eyeglasses while using my binoculars?\nMany models of binoculars will allow you to view in comfort while wearing eyeglasses or sunglasses. These binoculars have been designed to provide you with longer eye relief.\nEye relief refers to the distance images are projected from the ocular lens to their focal point and can vary from 5mm to 23mm. If you want to use your binoculars with eyeglasses or sunglasses, look for binoculars that offer at least 15mm of eye relief.\nNote: Without proper eye relief, the eyeglass wearer will not see the full field of view.\nWhen using your binoculars, be sure you understand the correct use of the eyecups. All binoculars will allow you to adjust the eyecups. There may be a rubber eyecup that can be folded down or a newer type that either twists or slides up and down on the eyepiece of the binocular.\nIf you’re an eyeglass wearer using binoculars, you always want to be sure you have the binocular eyecup rolled back (placed in the down position) while using your binoculars. This will allow you to see the widest possible field of view through your binoculars. Conversely, if you don’t wear glasses, you’ll enjoy your binoculars more if you leave these eyecups fully extended (placed in the up position). This will allow the binocular eyecups to just comfortably touch your face and help block out lateral light.\nDo my binoculars need to be waterproof?\nBinoculars are used outside in all kinds of weather. If you expect that you will be using your binoculars in rainy, wet weather (or if you use them around water), consider a pair of waterproof binoculars. You’ll pay a bit more for this feature, but you’ll also be able to use these binoculars without fear of repairing or replacing them just because they got wet.\nWaterproof binoculars are literally submersible and any water damage would be handled under the manufacturer’s warranty for the binocular.\nNote: If waterproofing isn’t necessary for your hobby, then you can find good quality binoculars at considerably lower prices.\nWhat makes a binocular appear brighter?\nBrightness in your binoculars can be affected by several things. Contrary to what many binocular users believe, big objective lenses are not the only factor to consider. The quality of glass used in binocular prism and lens construction along with the quality of the lens coatings on the binocular contribute more to brightness than do big objectives.\nLens coatings are thin layers of chemicals applied to the glass surfaces of the binoculars. These coatings improve light transmission through the binocular. Coating quality is affected by the number of coatings and whether all binocular lenses, inside and out, are coated with several layers of coatings.\nIdeally, you should purchase binoculars that are fully multi-coated, which means both sides of every binocular lens are coated with at least several layers of the anti-reflective chemical. High quality lens coatings will appear as fairly light, subtle shades of blue, green or violet.\nA word of caution, beware of a binocular using heavily colored lenses. These lenses will only cut down on light transmission through the binocular.\nNote: If all other things are equal in two binoculars, a binocular with a larger objective lens will yield a brighter image, but at the cost of greater size and weight. Higher quality binoculars with a smaller lens may very well be brighter than less expensive binoculars with larger objective lenses.\nHow do I clean my binoculars?\nUse common sense in the care and maintenance of your binoculars. Always attempt to blow off any visible dust or dirt from the binocular lenses before brushing or rubbing anything on the glass of your binocular. Next, use a lens cleaning tool like a Lens Pen or lens cleaning tissue to gently wipe off any remaining marks or spots from the lens of the binocular.\nRemove stubborn things like dried water spots from the lens of a binocular by lightly fogging the binocular lens with your breath. If your waterproof binoculars are badly soiled, you can even clean them by placing them under lightly running water (to minimize any possible damage).\nNote: Don’t use your shirt tail or pocket tissue to clean your binoculars. These fibers may contain material which will scratch the coatings on the binocular lenses.\nKeep binocular eyecups and focus mechanisms free of dirt and oil. An occasional wipe with a vinyl or rubber preservative like ArmorAll will extend the life of rubber eyecups on the binocular. Check your neckstrap and its attachments for wear or slippage, too. You don’t want your bino to come flying off and hit the ground!\nWhat about the light gathering ability of my binocular?\nYour eye is uniquely designed to gather more or less light as conditions change, but your binoculars are not. Since the light gathering ability of a binocular is fixed, it is important to select a model that best meets your eye’s need for light as viewing conditions grow darker.\nThe exit pupil is the magnified image in the eyepiece as it leaves the binocular to enter your eye. It is an indicator of how well you will see an image through your binoculars on a bright day, at twilight or at night. Almost all binoculars gather more light than is needed by your eye for viewing in bright conditions. For the best viewing at twilight, you’ll want a binocular with a minimum exit pupil of 4mm.\nDetermining the Exit Pupil\nTo determine the exit pupil of a binocular, simply divide the objective lens by the magnification of the binocular. If we use an 8×42 binocular as an example, the 42mm objective lens divided by the magnification of 8x gives us an exit pupil of 5.25mm. This tells us that an 8×42 binocular is a good configuration for low-light viewing.\nIn contrast, if we look at an 8×25 binocular, we find that 25mm divided by 8x leaves us an exit pupil of only 3.12mm. This means that an 8×25 binocular will give sufficient brightness for daytime viewing, but the image will not be as bright as you would like at dawn and dusk.\nHow do I properly set the diopter on my binocular?\n- All better quality binoculars will allow you to separately adjust the focus on one eye (usually the right eye) with a diopter adjuster. This is done to compensate for differences between your eyes so you see the clearest image possible through your binoculars.\nTo make the diopter adjustment, pick a distinctive object to focus on that is beyond the close focus distance of the binocular, but not too far out in the distance. Initially, come to a sharp focus on the object using the center focus of the binocular (with the diopter-corrected eyepiece side blocked off or that eye closed).\nOnce you’ve got the first eye focused as sharply as possible, close it and, then, open your other eye (the one on the diopter-corrected side). Carefully, without moving the center focus of the binocular, see if you can improve the image sharpness through this eye by slowly moving the diopter adjustment back and forth. Once you’ve found the setting which gives you the sharpest image, note it and leave it there — you’re done. From this point on, you simply use the center focus to adjust both eyes while viewing.\nNote: You should properly set the diopter adjuster when you first use your binocular (make note of your setting). Check the diopter setting on your binocular every so often to be sure your eyes haven’t changed. Always check it whenever you share your binocular with someone else.", "domain": "instrument_science"} +{"url": "https://k0003-02-05-tmp.penguin-cloud.at/en/expert-tools-2/signumat-sliding-caliper/", "date": "2023-12-03T07:39:27Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-50/segments/1700679100489.16/warc/CC-MAIN-20231203062445-20231203092445-00474.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.8604410886764526, "token_count": 238, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2023-50", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2023-50__0__316488690", "lang": "en", "text": "Signumat Sliding Caliper\nAccuracy is everything!\nHigh value timber is a valuable asset, where every centimetre counts.

There are four sub-awards in this project: 1) James Fujimoto, PhD, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (engineering site), 2) Douglas Koch, MD, Baylor School of Medicine Cullens Eye Institute, 3) Mark Terry, MD, Legacy Emmanuel Health Center, Devers Eye Institute and 4) Bibiana Jin Reiser, MD, Children's Hospital Los Angeles. This is the second 5 year award for this multiyear project which started in 2007 and ends in 2016. Below is an overview of the project.\nOptical coherence tomography (OCT) is a cross-sectional and 3-dimensional (3-D) imaging technology with very fine spatial resolution (5 microns). This project develops the methods and software needed for high-precision OCT measurements of the eye to guide implant, laser and transplant surgeries in the front part of the eye. This NIH grant aims to accurately calculate intraocular lens power and improve outcomes of cataract surgery in eyes with previous laser vision correction and to improve the precision, safety and effectiveness in laser correction of cloudy or irregular corneas and laser-assisted corneal transplantation.\nThe project aims to develop and utilize a new generation of very high speed OCT (about 10 times faster than previous models, taking an image in as little as 2/1000 of a second). The extended range will enable new types of measurements to be done accurately.\nThe Specific Aims of the grant are as follows:\n(1) To develop ultrahigh-speed OCT hardware and software for measuring optical surfaces of the anterior eye. Intrinsic eye movements effectively limit measurement of corneal shape by commercial OCT. This will be overcome by several approaches, including ultrahigh-speed OCT at 500 kHz, dual-beam OCT to simultaneously capture the shape of both the cornea and the lens, simultaneous capture of Placido-ring videokeratography and motion correction software. The goal is to provide reliable measurements on front and back surfaces of both the cornea and crystalline lens.\n(2) To develop an OCT-based intraocular lens power formula. Currently, surgeons lack an accurate way to calculate the precise intraocular lens (IOL) power for cataract patients who have previously had laser vision correction. These patients may be left near- or far-sighted after cataract surgery. An OCT-based IOL formula, using measurements of both anterior and posterior corneal powers, can give surgeons more precise information that will significantly improve visual outcomes. The OCT-based IOL formula will be tested in a clinical trial.\n(3) To develop OCT-guided excimer laser surface ablation. The excimer laser can remove cloudy layers from the front of the cornea and correct distorted shape due to keratoconus or transplant surgery. The group has developed 3-D OCT-based planning to optimally remove cloudiness due to corneal scars and stromal dystrophies. This method will be tested in a larger clinical trial. The method will be improved by adding 3-D OCT measurement of corneal shape (topography) to plan the correction of any shape distortion.\n(4) To develop OCT-guided laser-assisted anterior and posterior lamellar keratoplasty. Most corneal diseases involve only the inner or outer layer of the cornea. Thus a partial thickness transplant can treat these diseases while avoiding the complications of full-thickness transplantations (rejection, irregular wound shape, etc). However, manual dissection of corneal layers is technically difficult and vision after surgery is limited by the rough interfaces. Therefore, OCT methods have been developed to guide the shaping and smoothing of donor and host corneas with a combination of an excimer laser to create smooth interfaces and a femtosecond laser to create tongue-in-groove edge fits. Pilot clinical trials of these techniques are proposed. The end goal is to develop surgeries that reliably improve the vision in patients with keratoconus, corneal dystrophies and deep scars.\nOHSU investigators will work with collaborators at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Optovue, Inc. to develop the advanced OCT imaging technology. The clinical studies will be performed at Casey Eye Institute, Cullens Eye Institute, Devers Eye Institute, and Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. The ultimate goal is to improve the precision, visual outcome, and safety of anterior eye surgeries.", "domain": "instrument_science"} +{"url": "https://lmgbuilds.com/the-wave/", "date": "2020-09-25T19:21:31Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400228707.44/warc/CC-MAIN-20200925182046-20200925212046-00121.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9063044786453247, "token_count": 171, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2020-40", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2020-40__0__25778944", "lang": "en", "text": "LOCATION: Kansas City, Missouri\nOWNER: City of Kansas City, Missouri, Water Services Department\nCONTRACTOR: VSI Meter Services\nSCOPE: The City of Kansas City, Missouri Water Services Department installed “The WAVE” in residences and places of business beginning in the spring of 2007 through the spring of 2010, eliminating the need for meter readers to manually gather utility meter readings. “The WAVE” is an automated meter reading program that uses wireless radio transmitters to remotely read customer meters.

Over time, they may lead to severe structural damage, mold growth, and equipment malfunction. One of the most effective solutions to this problem is the use of water leak detection cables. This article aims to explore their applications, technical principles, advantages, and real-world success stories, providing insights into the installation process and best practices for optimizing performance. Visit the https://prosinogroup.com/ to learn more.\nApplications of Water Leak Detection Cables\nWater leak detection cables have a wide array of applications due to their versatility. In residential buildings, they are commonly installed near water heaters, dishwashers, washing machines, and in bathrooms, where they can quickly detect any unexpected water presence. For commercial spaces, especially those housing sensitive equipment like server rooms and data centers, these cables provide an invaluable line of defense against potential water damage. In industrial facilities, they find their use in areas such as process lines, storage tanks, and cooling systems, alerting the personnel of any leaks that could otherwise go unnoticed and cause significant damage.\nTechnical Principles Behind Water Leak Detection Cables\nThese detection systems are more than just cables. They are an amalgamation of advanced technology and materials science, designed to react promptly to the presence of water. The primary mechanism involves the use of conductive materials. When water comes into contact with the cable, it completes an electrical circuit that triggers an alarm. This reaction is almost instantaneous, allowing for prompt detection and action.\nDifferent types of cables may use various sensing mechanisms. Some use point detection, where water presence is signaled at specific intervals along the cable, while others offer zone detection, providing a general area where water has been detected. The latest models use distributed sensing technology, capable of accurately locating leaks anywhere along the cable's length.\nAdvantages in Different Scenarios\nWater leak detection cables provide numerous advantages, particularly in areas difficult to monitor manually. For example, underfloor leaks often go undetected until they've caused significant damage. These cables, when installed under floors, can promptly detect any moisture, allowing for immediate rectification.\nSimilarly, for ceiling leaks, the detection cables can be fitted above suspended ceilings to keep a check on any possible water seepage from pipes or HVAC units. Besides, they're invaluable in basements or underground facilities, where water ingress could be disastrous.\nReal-World Applications and Success Stories\nWater leak detection cables have saved countless properties from severe water damage. A notable example is a data center in California, where these cables detected a minor leak in the HVAC system. The immediate alert allowed the center to fix the issue promptly, preventing an estimated several hundred thousand dollars worth of potential damage to their servers.\nAnother success story involves a chemical plant in Texas. The facility had leak detection cables installed around its storage tanks. When a small leak occurred in one of the tanks, the system alerted the plant operators, preventing a potentially catastrophic chemical spill.\nInstallation Process and Best Practices\nInstalling water leak detection cables requires careful planning and execution. The cables should be strategically placed in areas prone to leaks. Regular inspections and maintenance are crucial to ensure the system's optimal performance.\nSpecial attention should be given to connector quality and cable routing. Poor-quality connectors or improper routing can lead to false alarms or missed detections. Using professional installation services is often recommended to ensure the system's accuracy and reliability.\nWater leak detection cables are a versatile, effective solution for preventing water damage across a range of environments. They provide fast, accurate leak detection, allowing for immediate action and potentially saving thousands, if not millions, in damage repair and replacement costs. They are not merely a purchase but an investment in the long-term safety and maintenance of a property. The value they offer in terms of damage prevention and peace of mind is truly immeasurable.", "domain": "instrument_science"} +{"url": "https://informau.com/2016/10/22/missing-mars-rover-potentially-found/", "date": "2019-08-20T08:22:59Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-35/segments/1566027315258.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20190820070415-20190820092415-00379.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.939874529838562, "token_count": 357, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2019-35", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2019-35__0__140002363", "lang": "en", "text": "On Wednesday, the European Space Agency (ESA) announced that the Schiaparelli spacecraft had been lost due to complications on landing.\nThe craft entered the atmosphere on October 19th, 14:42 GMT. A parachute release and 9 thrusters should have allowed for a controlled landing on the Red Planet; a first for the ESA and Roscosmos collaboration. Though the analysis of data from the descent isn’t complete, the agency suspects that the ejection of the parachute occurred earlier than planned causing the thrusters to cut out too soon; resulting in too high of a velocity for landing.\nRecently, NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter may have taken images of the site where the rover crashed. The black spot represents the site where the craft should have originally landed and it appears that the probe’s rocket fuel pod exploded on impact. The loss of the rover is a disappointing development for the mission as it was aimed to be the first of a line of probes sent to eventually search for life below the planet’s surface; ExoMars 2020.\nThe sister ship, Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO), is still safely orbiting Mars collecting data from the descended rover. David Parker, ESA’s Director of Human Spaceflight and Robotic Exploration said “From the engineering standpoint, it’s what we want from a test, and we have extremely valuable data to work with. We will have an enquiry board to dig deeper into the data and we cannot speculate further at this time.” The probe was designed to test a new module for the entry, descent and landing on Mars and though it didn’t go as planned, scientists are still enthusiastic about what the continual analysis of the data will unveil.", "domain": "instrument_science"} +{"url": "http://www.premierltg.com/led-optics-options/", "date": "2018-10-22T10:36:46Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-43/segments/1539583515029.82/warc/CC-MAIN-20181022092330-20181022113830-00341.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9529925584793091, "token_count": 617, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2018-43", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2018-43__0__184222575", "lang": "en", "text": "How do optics work with LEDs? Many think it is simply the plastic lens on the top of the bulb covering the diodes that disperses the light. However when you dig deeper into the components, there is more to it.\nIn taking a closer look at the LED diodes themselves, they have an outer casing. This is one part a protective measure but these also act as the primary optic. Even still, this primary optic is not focused enough and lacks strength over a distance. This is where the lenses, reflectors, and so on come into play as they take all the light within a given bulb or fixture and magnify the intensity based on how the optics are designed.\nAs LEDs were born, lenses and reflectors had to be entirely re-designed. They could not be re-used from previous light sources as LEDs emit light in a different manner. Older bulbs like incandescents have a 360° spread. The directional nature of LED results 180° illumination and with the substrate underneath the diode, it cannot be any wider than that.\nManufacturers continue to find new ways to manipulate LED optics to become smarter to suit more applications. Reflectors and TIR optics have become two of the most common ways. In terms of cost and ease of creating, reflectors are hard to beat. They come in varying sizes and how they collect and disperse the light will depend on their shape. With chip-on board LEDs, the light area is so large that a reflector is the only effective option. The downside to reflectors? The vast majority of light rays coming from the center emitter pass through the LED light source without even hitting the reflector. This means a good portion of the light will stray wide off it’s intended target and/or will create glare.\nThis is where Total Internal Reflection (TIR) Optics come in. Particularly with high lumen-density light sources, enveloping them with a TIR lens will ensure more control of where the light will be emitting. TIR lenses are mostly injection molded from polymers and utilize a refractive lens inside a reflector. They are far more efficient in controlling LED light spread. The lens directs light from the center of the source to the reflector, which then sends out a controlled beam in whichever direction is specified. On top of this, additional surface treatments (frosted, rippled, etc) can be applied to shape the light distribution.\nTIR optics work fantastically with LEDs as these optics fit perfectly surrounding the top of the LED. This allows for total control direct from the light source. TIR optics initially were used primarily with outdoor applications but have made progress with indoor lighting. They are still best used with tight, narrow beams and don’t work quite as well when the goal is wide, diffused light.\nAs with any decision when it comes to lighting, make sure you take into account what purpose the light fixture is supposed to provide and then choose the optics that best suits your need.", "domain": "instrument_science"} +{"url": "https://www.pfpnet.com/graco/", "date": "2024-04-25T13:46:21Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712297295329.99/warc/CC-MAIN-20240425130216-20240425160216-00575.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9173628091812134, "token_count": 599, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2024-18", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2024-18__0__92393970", "lang": "en", "text": "Graco is a world leader in fluid handling solutions.

Microbial contaminates are small, hard to track and easy to pick up – they’re everywhere!\nThe first and most important step here, unfortunately often overlooked, is collecting the sample in its original environment and in a sterile fashion. Here at PureVita Labs, our founders are PhD chemists and medical doctors, one of whom is a surgeon (who knows a thing or two about sterile environments). Our sample collection SOPs (standard operating procedures) are designed with similar aseptic techniques used in hospital operating rooms. The cannabis samples are collected using these sterile aseptic techniques and placed in a pre-sealed sterile container, only opened once on site, and them immediately sealed again on site before leaving.\nThe sample is then placed in a locked cooler. Then the cooler is placed in a locked container, which is, you guessed it, locked to the frame of our transportation vehicle (very secure!). And then transported directly back our laboratory. No stops are allowed on the way back of course, and this is all tracked in real-time by a state-of-the art cloud-based GPS system monitored by our lab (and the state!)\nOnce arrived back in the lab the sample is checked into our internal lab tracking software system, making use of bar codes and scan guns, while the sample remains in its sealed sterile container. One of our microbiology analysts is notified and moves the sample, still in its sealed sterile container, to our microbiology lab room.\nPureVita’s Microbiology Lab is state-of-the-art and hospital-grade, and in an individual room separated from all other testing equipment (as are all of our lab rooms). Anyone entering must enter through an airlock room, which is monitored 24/7 with a manometer, confirming that there is always positive pressure in the airlock. Our microbiology lab is a clean room with plaster ceilings and a fan-powered Hepa filer cleaning all the air that enters the room (but of course all the air that enters our building already passes through carbon air filters and Hepa filters – so the air entering our micro lab gets cleaned twice!).\nThen, finally, our microbiologist gets to open the sample … but only after the sample is brought over to our specialized bio-safety cabinet. This piece of equipment has a glass shield drawn over the front of it, leaving space for the analyst to place their arms under the glass to handle the sample. It is also equipped with an “air curtain” – there is a curtain of air that constantly flows on the inside of the glass to keep all contaminants in the bio-safety cabinet (this air is then sent through filters before being reintroduced into the cabinet) … and a curtain of air on the outside of the glass to keep any outside contaminants from getting into the bio-safety cabinet, where the sterile sample is being handled, to prevent the introduction of any outside contamination. There is only one sample open at a time in the bio-safety cabinet to prevent cross-contamination between samples. All the sample prep work is performed under the bio-safety cabinet, and the sample is sealed again, and never opened until the test is complete. Further, the cabinet, the surfaces, and all the equipment is sprayed and wiped down with alcohol in between sample analysis sessions.

Here's how the temperature control system typically works:\nThermostat or Controller: The heart of the temperature control system is a thermostat or digital controller. This device is responsible for continuously monitoring the temperature inside the refrigerator.\nTemperature Sensors: Within the refrigerator, there are temperature sensors (thermistors or thermocouples) strategically placed to provide real-time temperature readings. These sensors detect any temperature fluctuations.\nSetpoint Temperature: Users can set a specific target temperature using the thermostat or digital controller. The setpoint temperature is the desired temperature at which the refrigerator should operate.\nCompressor and Refrigeration System: The compressor is the main component that cools the air inside the refrigerator. When the temperature sensors detect that the actual temperature has risen above the setpoint, the thermostat sends a signal to the compressor to start. The compressor then circulates refrigerant through the evaporator coils.\nEvaporator Coils: The evaporator coils are located within the refrigerator's interior and are responsible for absorbing heat from the air inside, causing the air to cool down. This process maintains the desired temperature.\nDefrost Cycle: Some models may include a defrost cycle. During this cycle, the evaporator coils are heated to remove any accumulated frost or ice, which can affect the efficiency of the refrigeration system.\nFan: An evaporator fan is often used to circulate the cold air within the refrigerator, ensuring even temperature distribution.\nCondenser Coils: Hot refrigerant gas generated by the compressor is condensed into a liquid form in the condenser coils, releasing heat outside the refrigerator.\nCondenser Fan and Heat Dissipation: In some units, a condenser fan helps dissipate heat, making the cooling process more efficient. The condenser fan expels warm air generated by the refrigeration system.\nCycle Duration: The compressor runs in cycles. It turns on when the actual temperature exceeds the setpoint and turns off when the setpoint is reached. The duration of these cycles depends on factors such as the quality of insulation, door openings, and the external environment's temperature.\nTemperature Alarm: Many RG Series refrigerators are equipped with temperature alarms. If the temperature inside the refrigerator goes beyond acceptable limits (due to a malfunction or power outage), the alarm system alerts users, helping to prevent product spoilage.\nThe temperature control system continuously monitors and adjusts the refrigeration cycle to maintain the setpoint temperature. It plays a critical role in ensuring that products remain at their ideal storage temperature, whether they require freezing, chilling, or simply refrigeration, to maintain quality, safety, and freshness. Businesses must regularly check and calibrate this system to ensure accurate and consistent temperature control.", "domain": "instrument_science"} +{"url": "http://www.nomadhandheldxray.co.uk/dental/", "date": "2018-12-17T00:09:17Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-51/segments/1544376828018.77/warc/CC-MAIN-20181216234902-20181217020902-00373.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.888401985168457, "token_count": 700, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2018-51", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2018-51__0__236001597", "lang": "en", "text": "NOMAD Dental x-ray systems are the most advanced intraoral dental x-ray machines on the market for dental professionals.\nThe dental x-ray handheld design improves dental radiography speed, convenience, and quality.\nThe NOMAD Pro uses rechargeable Lithium Polymer handsets, weighs 5.5 pounds, and features an enhanced user interface.\nAdvantages of Handheld Radiography for Dental Professionals\n- Stay with patient during x-ray procedures\n- Take radiographs twice as fast as with conventional x-ray systems\n- Reduce number of retakes by up to 50 percent\n- Move handheld x-ray devices from room to room, eliminating need for multiple units\n- Carry anywhere – ideal for hospital, home-health, humanitarian, and out-of-office use\nNOMAD Pro – Handheld Portability\nThe NOMAD® Pro joins the family of award-winning Aribex NOMAD handheld dental x-ray systems, the most advanced systems on the market today.

Singhvi, Neela. Bhatia Two simple, accurate, economical and reproducible UV spectrophotometric and one HPLC method for simultaneous estimation of two-component drug mixture of pseudoephedrine hydrochloride and loratadine in combined tablet dosage form have been developed. The first developed method employs multiwavelength spectroscopy using seven mixed standards and 257.0 nm and 283.0 nm as two wavelengths for estimation. The second method involves first derivative spectroscopy using 308.6 nm and 263.0 nm as zero crossing points for pseudoephedrine hydrochloride and loratadine respectively. For both spectrophotometric methods, 0.2 M hydrochloric acid was used as solvent. Linearity was observed in concentration range of 0-40 mg/ml of loratadine and 0-800 mg/ml of pseudoephedrine hydrochloride. Developed HPLC method is reverse-phase chromatographic method using Inertsil C[sub] 18 column and methanol:ammonium acetate buffer in ratio of 80:20 pH 7.5 as mobile phase. Nimesulide was used as internal standard for HPLC method. For HPLC method, linearity was observed in concentration range of 0-200 mg/ml of loratadine and 100-2000 mg/ml of pseudoephedrine hydrochloride. Results of analysis were validated statistically and by recovery studies.\nPseudoephedrine hydrochloride, chemically 2-methylamino-1-phenyl-1-propanol hydrochloride, has sympathomimetic activity and is official in the United States Pharmacopoeia, British Pharmacopoeia and Indian Pharmacopoeia. All the three pharmacopoeia describe HPLC method for estimation of pseudoephedrine hydrochloride from tablet formulation. Several chromatographic methods are reported for estimation of pseudoephedrine hydrochloride,,,, from pharmaceutical formulation. Loratadine, chemically 4-(8-chloro-5,6-dihydro-11-H-benzo-[5,6]cyclohept-al[1,2-b]pyridin-11-ylidene)-1-piperidine carboxylic acid ethyl ester, is an antihistaminic agent and is yet not official in any of the pharmacopoeia. Several methods are reported for estimation of loratadine,,,,,,, from pharmaceutical formulations; however, none of the method is reported for simultaneous estimation of two drugs.\nDeveloped spectrophotometric and HPLC methods are simultaneous methods of analysis of pseudoephedrine hydrochloride and loratadine from combined tablet dosage form. The developed methods were found to be simple, rapid, accurate, reproducible and economical. These methods can be used successfully for quality control testing of the drugs from combined tablet dosage form.\nMATERIALS AND METHODS Standard bulk drug sample of pseudoephedrine hydrochloride, loratadine and nimesulide were provided by Ranbaxy Laboratories Ltd., Dewas. Tablets of combined dosage form were procured from the local market. All other reagents used were of analytical grade for spectrophotometric methods and of HPLC grade for HPLC method.\nShimadzu UV/V is spectrophotometer (model-160 A) with 1 cm matched quartz cells was used for spectrophotometric methods. Spectra’s were recorded using specific program of apparatus, having specifications as follows: spectral bandwidth 3 nm, wavelength accuracy [+ or -]0.5 nm, wavelength readability 0.1 nm increments. For HPLC method, Shimadzu delivery module LC-10AD with UV SPD-10A detector and Chromatopac C-R7A integrator were used.\nMethod I-Multiwavelength spectroscopy: Using the overlain spectra of pseudoephedrine hydrochloride and loratadine in 0.2 M HCl, the wavelength maxima of both drugs, i.e., 257.0 and 283.0 nm, were selected as two sampling wavelengths for this method. Seven mixed standards of two drugs in 0.2 M HCl were prepared so as to contain 0-600 mg/ml of pseudoephedrine hydrochloride and 0-25 mg/ml of loratadine. All mixed standard solutions were scanned over the range of 400 nm to 220 nm in multicomponent mode of spectrophotometer using 257.0 nm and 283.0 nm as two sampling wavelengths. The spectral data from these scan were used to determine the concentration of two drugs in the sample solution. go to site loratadine side effects\nAnalysis of commercial formulation: Twenty tablets were accurately weighed and average weight per tablet determined. Tablets were grounded to fine powder, and weighed tablet powder equivalent to 120 mg pseudoephedrine hydrochloride was transferred to 100 ml volumetric flask. The powder was extracted four times with 20 ml portions of methanol. The extract was collected in 100 ml volumetric flask after filtration through Whatman filter paper no. 41. The filter paper was washed with 20 ml methanol, and the washing was added to the filtrate. The methanol was evaporated on water bath and the residue was dissolved in 75 ml of 0.2 M HCl and again filtered through Whatman filter paper No. 41. The filter paper was washed with 20 ml of 0.2 M HCl and the washing was added to the filtrate. The volume of filtrate was made to 100 ml mark with 0.2 M HCl. In 10 ml volumetric flask, 2.5 ml of filtrate was taken and diluted to the mark with 0.2 M HCl.\nThe sample solution was scanned over the range of 400 nm to 220 nm in multicomponent mode and concentration of each component was estimated by analysis of spectral data of sample solution with respect to that of mixed standards by the instrument. Results of analysis are reported in [Table 1].\nMethod II-First derivative spectroscopy: From first derivative spectra of pseudoephedrine hydrochloride and loratadine in 0.2 M HCl zero crossing points, 308.6 nm and 263.0 nm were selected for simultaneous estimation of two drugs. Accurately weighed pure drug sample of pseudoephedrine hydrochloride and loratadine were dissolved in 0.2 M HCl and were diluted with same so as to give several dilutions in the range of 0-800 mg/ml of pseudoephedrine hydrochloride and 0-30 mg/ml of loratadine. The absorbance of these dilutions were recorded in first derivative mode at 308.6 nm for estimation of loratadine, and 263.0 nm for estimation of pseudoephedrine hydrochloride. Respective calibration curves were prepared. Validity of proposed method was checked by preparing five mixed standards containing different concentrations of pure drug sample of pseudoephedrine hydrochloride and loratadine. Absorbance was measured at respective selected zero crossing points, and concentration of two drugs, using respective calibration curve, was determined. Validation studies gave satisfactory results.\nAnalysis of commercial formulation: Tablet sample was prepared in similar manner as for Method I. Absorbance of final dilution of sample was recorded at 308.6 nm and 263.0 nm from first derivative spectra of sample and amount of two drugs calculated using respective calibration curve. Results of analysis are reported in [Table 1].\nMethod III-High-performance liquid chromato- graphic method: HPLC method was developed using Inertsil C[sub] 18 ODS 3V(5m) 250 x 4.6 mm column. Mobile phase selected for this method contained 20 parts of ammonium acetate buffer (3.85 g/l) and 80 parts of methanol adjusted to pH 7.5 with sodium hydroxide that was filtered through 0.2 micron membrane filter. Flow rate employed was 1.0 ml/min. Detection of eluent was carried out at 250 nm and AUFS was set at 0.032. Method was developed using nimesulide as internal standard.\nStandard stock solution: Standard stock solutions of pure drugs were made separately in mobile phase containing 2000 mg/ml of pseudoephedrine hydrochloride, 200 mg/ml of loratadine and 100 mg/ml of nimesulide and filtered through a 0.2 micron membrane filter.\nPreparation of calibration curve: For preparation of the drug solutions for the calibration curves, in a series of 10 ml volumetric flasks, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 ml of the pure drug standard stock solutions of pseudoephedrine hydrochloride and 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 and 2.5 ml of the pure drug standard stock solutions of loratadine were transferred. In each flask, 2.0 ml of stock pure drug solution of nimesulide was added and the volume was made up to the mark with the mobile phase. Each solution was injected and a chromatogram was recorded. Mean retention time for pseudoephedrine hydrochloride was found to be 3.158 min, for loratadine 13.464 min, and for nimesulide 4.440 min.\nThe peak area ratios of pseudoephedrine hydrochloride to nimesulide and loratadine to nimesulide were calculated and respective calibration curves were plotted against concentration of drug and peak area ratio of drug to internal standard.\nProcedure for analysis of formulations:\nTwenty tablets of the formulation were weighed and the average weight per tablet was calculated. Twenty tablets were crushed and ground to a fine powder. Powder equivalent to 240 mg of pseudoephedrine hydrochloride was weighed and transferred to a 100 ml volumetric flask containing about 75 ml mobile phase. To this volumetric flask, accurately weighed 10 mg of pure standard nimesulide was added. The powder mixture was dissolved in the mobile phase with the aid of ultrasonication. The solution was filtered through Whatman filter paper no. 41 into another 100 ml volumetric flask. The filter paper was washed with mobile phase and washings were added to the filtrate. Volume of filtrate was made up to the mark with the mobile phase. To another 10 ml volumetric flask, 2.0 ml of this solution was transferred and the volume was made up to the mark with the mobile phase. This solution was filtered through a 0.2 m membrane filter.\nAfter setting the chromatographic conditions and stabilizing the instrument to obtain a steady baseline, the tablet sample solution was loaded in the 20 ml fixed – sample loop of the injection port. The solution was injected and a chromatogram was recorded. The injections were repeated five times and the peak areas were recorded. A representative chromatogram has been given in [Figure 1] . The peak area ratios of each of the drugs to the internal standard were calculated and the amount of each drug present per tablet was estimated from the respective calibration curves. The results of analysis are presented in [Table 1].\nRecovery studies: To study the accuracy, reproducibility and precision of the above methods, recovery studies were carried out by addition of standard drug solution to pre-analyzed sample at three different levels. Results of recovery studies were found to be satisfactory and are reported in [Table 2].\nRESULTS AND DISCUSSION The proposed methods for simultaneous estimation of pseudoephedrine hydrochloride and loratadine in combined tablet dosage form were found to be simple, accurate, rapid and economical. The values of coefficient of variance were satisfactorily low and recovery was close to 100%, indicating reproducibility of the methods. this web site loratadine side effects\nFirst method involving multiwavelength spectroscopy is specific to instrument having software for provision of such determination. Selection of proper sampling wavelengths and concentration of components in mixed standard is critical. Since calculations are done by the instrument itself, chances of manual error are nil; furthermore, the method is quite rapid.\nSecond method involving first derivative ultraviolet spectroscopy requires recording spectrophotometer with data processing mode. Proper selection of zero crossing point in derivative spectra completely eliminates the interference of unwanted component, and thus, concentration of two components can be easily calculated without prior separation of components from combined dosage form.\nThird developed method for simultaneous estimation of two drugs from combined dosage form is reverse phase chromatographic method utilising C[sub] 18 column and methanol ammonium acetate as mobile phase. Detection of eluent was carried out using UV detector. The method was developed using nimesulide as internal standard. The run time per sample is just 15 min. The excipients in the formulation did not interfere in the accurate estimation of pseudoephedrine hydrochloride and loratadine.\nSince none of the methods is reported for simultaneous estimation of pseudoephedrine hydrochloride and loratadine from combined dosage form, these developed methods can be used for routine analysis of two components without prior separation.\nACKNOWLEDGMENTS The authors would like to acknowledge Ranbaxy Laboratories Ltd., Dewas, India, for providing pure drug samples of pseudoephedrine hydrochloride, loratadine and nimesulide.

In this way, the solar panel can track the sun at the azimuth angle and the altitude angle of the sun at the same time. So as to achieve the solar panels remain perpendicular to the sun's rays. The dual-axis tracking photovoltaic array moves along two rotation axes, which can simultaneously track the changes in the azimuth and altitude of the sun. In theory, it can completely track the sun's trajectory to achieve zero incidence angle.\nThe dual-axis automatic tracking system is generally divided into two parts: electric control and mechanical.\nElectric control system\nThe dual-axis tracking photovoltaic array moves along two rotation axes, which can simultaneously track the changes in the azimuth and altitude of the sun. In theory, it can completely track the sun's trajectory to achieve zero incidence angle. Generally, tracking control can adopt two basic methods: continuous tracking and step tracking. The continuous tracking mode requires the tracking angle to be adjusted at any time according to the changing law to follow the sun's trajectory. The step tracking method is to adjust the tracking angle at regular intervals so that the photovoltaic array is aligned with the current position of the sun, while the photovoltaic array remains stationary during the rest of the time. Obviously, the step tracking mode simplifies system control. However, the step-tracking photovoltaic array cannot track the sun's trajectory in real time, which will inevitably reduce the utilization rate of solar radiation. Considering all aspects, the step tracking method is adopted to make the tracking angle error less than ±0.5 degrees.\nhe structure of the dual-axis tracking system is divided into a supporting part, a connecting part and a transmission part. The supporting part of the dual-axis tracking system is composed of main pillars, rotating supports and steel structure brackets, the connecting part is composed of aluminum profiles and bolts, and the transmission part is composed of worm gears, connecting rods, and reducers. The tracking direction of the dual-axis tracking system includes two directions of horizontal rotation and vertical pitch, realizing dual-degree-of-freedom tracking. The power input of the motor is decelerated by the reducer, and the worm gear is input to convert the rotation of the vertical plane into the rotation of the horizontal plane. At the same time, the position sensor collects the angle of the system rotation in real time, and inputs real-time data for the electronic control to realize the horizontal rotation direction.

A boyhood visit to the Plymouth Lab of the Marine Biological Association in the late ’50s led him to study Zoology at Oxford and then to do a PhD at Cambridge on the contraction of Vorticella, a microscopic pond organism. In this organism, he discovered and named an abundant calcium-binding protein which is now known as centrin and has been found in all cells. In 1981 he moved informally to the LMB , where he found that John White had set up a prototype confocal microscope. With John, Mick Fordham and Richard Durbin, he developed the confocal microscope which was taken up by Bio-Rad and was soon in use in labs throughout the world. Brad was seconded to Bio-Rad by the MRC for the next 17 years, and designed both the Radiance series of confocal microscopes and the production line jigs for manufacturing it. When the UK factory was acquired and closed by Zeiss he continued to design optical equipment for use in the LMB and to organise a course on advanced optical microscopy in Plymouth which is now in its eleventh year. Since retirement in 2010 he has been working part-time in the University of Strathclyde on new types of microscope, using his ‘Mesolens’ and collaborating in published work on nonlinear optics and novel lasers. He has retained his interest in marine and freshwater biology and has also written papers on gem faceting and invented a method for the measurement of refractive indices in gemstones (including diamond) where the index is too high for a conventional refractometer.\nThe Mesolens is a giant microscope objective designed for computer data acquisition rather than the human eye. It arose from a realization in the early days of confocal microscopy that confocal images could not be obtained of large specimens, because the available low-magnification objectives had too poor a resolution in depth. With the help of a professional lens designer, a lens has been created with an unprecedented numerical aperture of nearly 0.5 at a magnification of 4x and with a field size of 5mm. The detail captured by this lens was shown at a public exhibition to commemorate the 350th anniversary of the Royal Society in 2010. With Professor Gail McConnell and Dr John Dempster (Strathclyde) Brad has succeeded in recording simultaneously cytology and whole-animal anatomy confocally from large specimens such as 10-day mouse embryos. It is hoped that a test centre for Mesoscopy can be set up in Strathclyde during 2013 and commercial production of microscopes based on this technology will begin in the same year. Applications are expected in the screening of human genes in transgenic mice, studies of large numbers of neurones in the brain and many other areas. Mesoscopy closes a gap in the repertoire of the optical microscope: provided the resolution (0.5um in length and 3um depth) is adequate the Mesolens is capable of gathering approximately a hundred times the amount of information in a focal series that can be gathered by a standard N.A. 1.4 60x microscope lens, with proportionally enlarged file sizes.\nThe Plymouth Microscopy Course\nIn 2002, Brad founded an annual course on Advanced Optical Microscopy in the Laboratory of the Marine Biological Association in Plymouth UK. This course is now widely known and attracts students and lecturers from all over Europe and beyond. Many LMB students and post-docs have attended this course.

It's not just for spotting any more, or antenna testing, or site selection for WRTC 2014. Instead, its unique capabilities are being applied to the study of space weather.\nThe work has been undertaken by a far-flung team of ionospheric scientists from Virginia Tech, the Applied Physics Laboratory of Johns Hopkins University,and SRI, supported by the RBN team, as well as Alex Shovkoplyas, VE3NEA, author of the Skimmer series of CW and RTTY software.

A QS1R receiver and DX Engineering active vertical antenna have been installed at Virginia Tech's Blackstone radar, to assess what measures may be required to isolate the receiver from the SuperDARN radar's HF transmissions.

Positive input. +4.0V to +12V for gate on. Gate In is usually used along with CV In to play the x0xb0x from an external device. When a patch cable is plugged in both the internal sequencer and the external input can turn on the gate. -15V to 15V input will not damage the unit but extreme voltages should be avoided.\nCV In. The CV input allows external control of the pitch of the notes being played. The x0xb0x uses 1V/Oct where +1V is equal to note C1 - corresponding to 65.4Hz. This is a switched jack that is normally-closed. When a patch cable is inserted into the jack the internal CV is bypassed. There is CV protection against negative voltage and over-voltage.\nAcc In. Positive input. +2.5V to +12V for Accent on. Negative voltage up to -15V will not damage the x0xb0x but will not trigger an accent and should be avoided. Accents will be triggered by both the internal sequencer and the external input. Typically this input would be controlled by a CV from other analog gear or from the velocity output from a MIDI to CV converter.\nSld In. Positive input. +2.5V to +12V for Slide on. With the x0xb0x/TB-303 Slide function the gate is also open when a slide is held. Anything over +4V will initiate a slide and hold the gate open for normal 303 operation. Input between +2.5V and +4v will only trigger a slide and not open the gate. Negative voltage up to -15V will not damage the x0xb0x but will not trigger a slide and should be avoided. Slides will be triggered by both the internal sequencer and the external input. Typically this input would be controlled by a CV from other analog gear or from an aux output from a MIDI to CV converter.\nFilter CV In. This is the filter modulation input. It is 1V/Oct. Input between 0V and +6V is more than enough range to cover several octaves. Because of the biasing initiated by components Q9, R64, & R65 the resting voltage of filter cutoff is +3.25V. Any CV input lower than this will decrease cutoff frequency. Anything higher than this will increase cutoff frequency. For example, a CV input of 4.25V will increase the filter cutoff about one octave. The input will take anything from 0 to +10V. Anything above +10V or below 0V should be avoided. The filter modulation source can be any CV or audio input, perhaps an envelope generator or low frequency oscillator from other analog gear or an audio input from the x0xb0x or external gear.\nSwp Out. This jack gives a direct copy of the accent sweep signal normalized to 0V. This is the short burst (wow) envelope that affects filter cutoff on accents.\nAcc Out. The Accent Out feature is optional. When wired up there is +5V on the tip of the headphone jack. It can be used to trigger accents on a second x0xb0x/TB-303 or to trigger velocity or other gate functions on other hardware. For example, it could be used to control the gate in on another piece of gear so that notes only play on accents.\nAudio Inputs & Outputs\nVCO Out. This is the output of the VCO. This is a switched jack that is normally-closed. When a patch cable is inserted into this jack the circuit is opened between the VCO output and the VCF input. The signal level of this output is in the range of 1 to 3 Vrms. It can be used for several purposes. One use would be to process the x0xb0x waveform with external hardware such as an effects processor, delay, modular gear, etc… before possibly returning it the VCF or VCA input.\nVCF In. This is a direct audio input to the VCF. It is ac-coupled and is suitable for most line level signals – preferably in the range of 500mV to 2V. This is where you would input external audio signals to be processed by the x0xb0x filter (and VCA, output mixer & overdrive if desired), or where you could return the x0b0x waveform that was taken from the VCO Out jack.\nVCF Out. This is the output of the VCF. The signal level varies depending on VCO level and cutoff & resonance settings but is typically 500 mVrms. This is a switched jack that is normally-closed. When a patch cable is inserted the circuit is opened between the VCF output and VCA input. This is done so that you don’t get the original VCF signal mixed into the VCA if you are taking the VCF Out signal and returning it to the VCA already. If you’re using the VCF Out signal and also want to send it to the VCA simply route it back in to the VCA Input jack.\nVCA Input. This jack is a direct audio input to the VCA. It is ac-coupled and is suitable for most line level signals – preferably in the range of 500mV to 2V. If you’re using the VCA input and don’t want to hear the output from the VCF simply plug a patch cable into the VCF Out jack. The external signal also passes through the Overdrive as well since it is post-VCA.\nOn/Off. When in the off position the overdrive circuit is bypassed. When in the on position the x0xb0x output is sent to the overdrive circuit. This is post-volume control so the volume control is used to drive the input of the overdrive.\nType. This switch selects between overdrive and distortion. When in the up position overdrive is selected. When in the down position distortion is selected.\nAmount. Controls the amount of overdrive or distortion.\nTone. Controls the mid & high frequency tone of the overdrive or distortion.\nLow Freq. This switch selects between three different low frequency contours. The up position is the moderate setting. The down position gives more low frequency. The middle position gives the least low frequency. In the case of the Distortion circuit it affects the color of the mid and low-mid frequencies more-so than the lower frequencies.\nBass Response. The low frequency response is increased approximately one octave to 35 Hz.\nVCF Range. Both the low range and high range of the filter cutoff frequency is increased. The lowest cutoff frequency is lowered from 400 Hz to 80 Hz. The highest cutoff frequency is increased from 1.2 kHz to 3.5 kHz. In addition, activating the Filter Hi Range switch increases it further to 14 kHz (especially useful when using the VCF input with a full-range signal).\nEnv Mod Range. The range of Env Mod is changed to give no modulation when the Env Mod control is at the minimum setting.\nVCO FM. This is a frequency modulation (FM) input to the VCO. It is ac-coupled and is used for audio rate frequency modulation. It is expecting a line level signal in the range of 100mV to 1V.\nFilter Hi Range. When this button is on the maximum cutoff frequency is increased to 14 kHz.\nENV2 to VCO2 Switch. This is only used with the full x0xi0 mod. See the full manual for details. With the I/O-only mod this SPDT slide switch is free to be used for any additional mod.\nDetails & Circuit Description\nControl Inputs & Outputs\nGate In. The signal from the tip of the Gate In jack goes to the base of Q37 through R326. The turn-on threshold is +4.0V. Both the internal sequencer and the external input can turn on the gate. -15V to 15V input will not damage the unit but extreme voltages should be avoided.\nCV In. The CV input allows external control of the pitch of the notes being played. The x0xb0x uses 1V/Oct where 1V is equal to note C1 - corresponding to 65.4Hz. This is a switched jack that is normally-closed. When a patch cable is inserted into the jack the internal CV is bypassed. More specifically, the internal CV input coming from the node of R88/R89/R90 goes to the switched jack so as when there’s no patch cable inserted the signal continues to the tip of the jack. The tip of the jack then goes to pin 5 of IC11, the slide buffer. In the case of the full x0xi0 mod the tip of the CV In jack goes to the slide time circuit, which then goes to pin 5 of IC11. In either case the trace on the x0xb0x mainboard between R88/R89/R90 and IC11 Pin 5 is cut. CV In is protected from negative voltage by D307 – which shunts any negative voltage to ground. D308 and R328 protect it from over-voltage. D308 is a 6.2V zener diode. If the CV In exceeds the zener voltage the diode will conduct and limit the input voltage. R328 current limits from constant or extreme over-voltage so the zener diode doesn’t burn out.\nAcc In. The threshold to trigger an accent is +2.5V. The signal from the tip of the Acc In jack goes to R329 and then Q302. The emitter of Q302 goes to the base of Q35 so that both the external input and internal sequencer can trigger accents. The signal at Pin 12 of IC13 and the emitter of Q302 is 0V on accents and 5V when no accent. Q35 and related circuitry inverts the polarity of the accent input so that there will be ~10V at the collector of Q35 on accents. This 10V goes to a control input on the 4066 analog switch (IC12) which effectively allows the filter envelope signal to pass through. This copy of the filter envelope then goes to the accent pot. The accent pot controls the depth of the filter envelope which is the sent to the VCA and to the accent sweep circuit.\nSlide In. The threshold to trigger a slide is +2.5V. The signal from the tip of the Slide In jack goes through R331 to the base of Q29. Both the internal sequencer and external input can trigger a slide. The external slide input also goes to R330 to the base of Q37 to open the gate during slides for standard TB-303 operation. The value of R330 is set to open the gate with an input voltage over 4V. So anything between +2.5V and +4V will trigger the Slide In circuit only and not open the gate. Anything over +4V will trigger the slide circuit and open the gate.\nFilter CV In. The tip of this jack goes through R332 to the filter CV input. The input is 1V/Oct. The usable range is typically 0V to +8V. This is a switched jack that is normally-closed. When no patch cable is inserted the tip is connected to the ac ground of the filter control input to eliminate the possibility of noise coming in through the floating tip of the unused connection. The final filter cutoff frequency is determined by several factors. First is the position of the cutoff pot. Second is the settings of all the other sources for filter modulation, including Env Mod, the accent sweep, and the Filter CV In. Additional sources for filter modulation with the full x0xi0 kit include VCO to FM, Filter Tracking, and ENV2 to Filter Mod. One important thing to be aware of is that the Filter CV input has a resting voltage of +3.25V because of the bias voltage created by Q9, R64 & R65. Keeping this in mind you will find that filter frequency will decrease with an external CV input that is less then 3.25V and increase with anything greater than 3.25V (assuming all other sources of filter mod are inactive). Biasing the filter modulation input was implemented in the TB-303 to increase the effectiveness of envelope modulation (ENV MOD). Since the TB-303 is primarily a bass machine, Roland decided it would be more useful for the filter envelope to be able to decrease the cutoff frequency as the depth of the filter envelope is increased, rather than just increase it to higher frequencies with less interesting higher harmonics. If you were to scope the filter envelope at the emitter of Q40 you would see that it shoots up to an amplitude of about 9V and decays to a minimum of about 0.7V. This signal then goes to the Env Mod pot before going to the filter mod summing node. At lower settings of the Env Mod pot (VR5) this bias voltage has a greater influence on the filter envelope signal, as the ratio of the resistance between pin 2 and pin 3 of the pot versus pin 1 and pin 2 becomes greater. This effectively offsets it more towards 3.25V rather than 0.7V. As the Env Mod pot is increased the less influence the bias voltage has on the filter envelope.\nSwp Out. Accent Sweep was a term coined by Robin Whittle to name the filter sweep that is derived from the filter envelope during accents. This is the circuit based around D24, R46, C13, and the second gang of the resonance pot (VR4). When there’s an accent the control lines of the 4066 analog switch (pins 5 & 13) go high and the filter envelope goes to the accent pot. The accent pot determines the depth of the filter envelope that is sent to the VCA and the accent sweep circuit. It is sent to the VCA through R119, C36, and R22. The signal is attenuated and smoothed by R119, R120 & C36 and sent to the VCA control input. This is what makes accented notes louder. It is sent to the sweep circuit consisting of C13, R47, D24, and VR4. From looking at these components on the schematic you can see that at lower settings of resonance the sweep signal at pin 2 of the resonance pot is pretty much a direct copy of the filter envelope since all the signal goes from the accent pot to D24/R46 and straight to R72 to the summing node of the filter CV input. As resonance is increased C13 will be charged and discharged by the arrangement of D24, R46 and the voltage divider formed by the resonance pot between signal going straight to filter cutoff and that going to C13. The charging and discharging of C13 gives the rounding off of the attack and decay of the filter envelope signal and becomes the sweep signal. The signal at the Swp Out jack is a direct copy of this accent sweep normalized to 0V. The arrangement around IC304b simply creates a DC offset for the accent sweep signal. The resting voltage for this output is ~10mV (when calibrated with TM301). This was done to make it more compatible with external hardware. Normally the resting voltage of the filter sweep signal is ~3.4V. Since the sweep signal normally varies between 3.4V and 6V, taking a direct copy of it would eliminate most of the useful range when used as a control voltage. Below shows the normal accent sweep signal and the offset version that is available on the Swp Out jack :\nThe amplitude of the sweep signal is typically between 0v and 3v depending on the position of the accent and resonance controls. This output can be used just like any other CV to control filter modulation, frequency modulation, velocity, etc…\nAcc Out. The accent signal from the collector of Q35 goes to the junction of R346 & R347. The other side of R347 goes to the new +12V supply. When there is no accent the collector of Q35 is 0V so the node between R346, R347, and D309 is also 0V. When the collector of Q35 is ~10V the voltage at this node goes to ~6V based on the values chosen for R346 and R347.\nAudio Inputs & Outputs\nVCO Out. This is the output the VCO (or VCO1 & VCO2 if you installed the full x0xi0 mod). This is a switched jack that is normally-closed. When a patch cable is inserted into this jack the circuit is opened between the VCO Output and the VCF Input. The signal level of the VCO output is generally in the range of 1 to 3 Vrms. The output impedance is 22k. C17 is an ac-coupling cap. The value of R342 is set to maintain the same signal level to the filter as the stock x0xb0x when no patch cable is plugged into the jack.\nVCF In. This is an external audio input to the VCF. Connections Q and R are placeholders for the full x0xi0 mod as there is a level control for the VCF Input on the top panel. This input uses a switched jack that is normally-closed. When no patch is inserted the Noise signal from the main mod (when installed) is sent through connection Q to the level control. When a patch cable is inserted the white noise signal is disabled and the external input is sent to the VCF. When installing the x0xi0 I/O mod only there is jumper placed between connections Q and R since there is no level control. The input is ac-coupled by C323. The input impedance is 22k and is compatible with signals in the range of 500mV to 2V.\nVCF Out. This is a switched jack that is normally-closed. When no patch cable is plugged in the VCF Out signal is sent to the VCA for normal operation. The value of R334 is chosen to give the correct signal level to the VCA when no patch cable is inserted. When a patch cable is inserted the VCF output is available on the tip of the jack and the circuit is open between the VCF and VCA. The output impedance is 47k. The VCF output is typically around 500mV.\nVCA In. This is a switched jack that is normally-closed. The VCA input is very sensitive since the VCA is high gain, so when there is no patch cable inserted the VCA input is grounded. C327 is an ac-coupling cap. R345 is chosen so that the input to the VCA is compatible with signal levels in the range of 100mV to 1V.\nThe goal of the overdrive was to provide a lot of adjustability to achieve a broad range of sounds without the need to reach for other overdrive or distortion boxes. It would not have made much sense to integrate a simple overdrive without the additional controls as you would most likely still find the need to use external gear. In addition to controls for Amount, Tone, and Low Frequency contour, the overdrive also integrates two completely independent circuits selectable with the Type switch. It has an overdrive and a distortion. Double pole switches and dual gang pots were used for the Amount, Tone, and Low Freq controls so they work double duty for both circuits. In this way there is a big range of sonic character. The overdrive and distortion circuits are completely independent so there is no overlap in the resulting sound. The overdrive circuit will be described first.\nSW301 selects whether the signal is sent to the overdrive or bypassed. When in the off position the overdrive circuit is completely bypassed and the signal from the x0xb0x mixer stage is sent directly to the mixout jack. When the on/off switch is turned on the signal is sent to SW302, which selects between the overdrive and distortion circuits. IC303 is a rail splitter that takes the output from the new 12V supply and creates a bias voltage of 6V. C330 is a bypass cap for the bias voltage to reduce any noise in the bias voltage. The circuit based around IC301a is the clipping stage. It is a non-inverting op amp with a gain control and clipping elements in the feedback loop. The overdrive Amount control (VR301) varies the gain between 1 and 200. D301, D302 & D303 are the clipping elements. The input signal is clipped as it is amplified and exceeds the forward voltage of the diodes. The diodes are placed in both directions so they clip on both positive and negative halves of the waveform. This circuit is generally referred to as an overdrive since the diodes are in the feedback path of the gain stage. Placing the diodes in the feedback loop results in what is generally referred to as soft-clipping since the non-inverting op amp always has at least unity-gain regardless of how much the diodes conduct, since the output of the non-inverting amp adds the input signal to the clipped signal. The overdrive circuit is placed post-VCA so the volume control is used to drive the overdrive – just like if you were using an external stomp box. The output of the x0xb0x can be anywhere from a few mV to 3V peak to peak or more. This is important to note since the behavior of the overdrive will vary depending on the signal level at the input to the overdrive. With normal setting and the volume control at the 3 o’clock position the output of the x0xb0x is usually around 2V peak to peak. Since the turn-on threshold of the diodes is around 0.5V to 1V it is easy to imagine that the subtlety of the soft-clipping will transition to more of a harder clipping as the overdrive amount is turned up, especially as the op amp itself starts to hit the supply rails. R302, C304, C305 & C306 create a high-pass filter in the gain stage. SW303 allows for selection between three different low frequency contours. The frequency response measurement for each position of the switch is shown below:\nAfter the clipping stage there is a tone control stage to manage the mid to high frequency response. R304 and C308 create a first-order low pass filter at 1 kHz. IC301b, VR302 and related circuitry is an active tone control. The values for the tone control (VR302) and surrounding components have been chosen to give a wide range of tone. The frequency response for min, mid, & max settings is shown below:\nThe output of IC301b goes to an ac coupling cap C321 and then to the SW302. The second pole of SW302 then goes to SW301. The second pole of SW301 goes to the output of the x0xb0x.\nThe distortion circuit is selected when SW302 is in the down position. Q301 and related circuitry is a discrete gain stage. IC302b is another gain stage with a gain determined by the setting of the Amount control (VR301). C313 rolls off some high frequencies. Since it is placed in the feedback loop the cutoff frequency decreases with increased gain (as the ratio of resistance on each side of the amount pot is varied as gain is adjusted). After the gain stage are the clipping diodes D305 and D306. Contrary to overdrive designs, distortion circuits generally place the clipping diodes after the gain stage connected to ground, as opposed to the feedback loop. Placing diodes to ground after the gain stage results in what is generally referred to as hard-clipping since the entire signal is clipping after the gain stage. VR301, R319 and C314 create a first order high-pass filter. The cutoff frequency is dependant on the position of the VR301.The higher the setting of VR301 the higher the cutoff frequency, although the cutoff frequency is set low enough in this circuit that the low frequency response doesn’t change much for different settings of the Amount control. The low frequency characteristic is determined mostly by the C310 and C312. With higher settings of the Amount control the op amp can run out of headroom and will clip at the supply rails, this is part o the design. After the gain stage R320 and C316 create a first order low-pass filter. This takes some more of the edge off the higher harmonics of the overdriven signal. VR302 and the surrounding components create a passive tone control. R323 & C320 form a low-pass filter and C317, C318, C319, R321, R322 form a high-pass filter. The high-pass and low-pass sections are weighted by the setting of Tone control. Below is the frequency response with the Tone control set at the min, mid, and max settings:\nThe Low Freq switch changes the contour of the mid and low-mid frequencies by changing the characteristic of the high-pass filter section of the tone control. The up position retains a slightly scooped response by adding component C318 in parallel with C317. The middle position increases the scooped response and raises the center frequency by raising the cutoff frequency of the high-pass filter by de-selecting C318 & C319. The down position gives more of a flat frequency response by changing the high-pass filter by adding component C319 in parallel with C317. Below is the frequency response for the three settings of the Low Freq switch:\nAn effort was made to keep noise down as much as possible. Overdrive and distortion circuits can get quite noisy because of the high amount of gain, as the dynamic range of the signal is compressed and the noise is amplified during the gain stages. I’ve made a point of using low noise components and managing the gain structure to work well with the x0xb0x. However, I have still allowed for extreme amounts of gain for those who want to get a really filthy sound and there will still be audible noise at the max settings (this is especially true for the distortion circuit). Varying the settings for the volume, tone, and amount controls will greatly change the character of the distorted signal.\nOne important detail I have noticed after testing several x0xb0x’s is that there can be a lot of clicking if the VCA happens to have a lot of DC offset. BA662A’s generally good, BA662B’s are always bad, and BA6110’s vary from good to bad. This clicking is amplified during the overdrive or distortion stages and can get quite annoying in some cases. If you hear a lot of popping or clicking it is most likely the VCA.\nThere are a few additional things to note about the distortion circuit. When the x0xb0x level control is near max there will always be some distortion even if the Amount control is set to minimum. This is because the discrete gain stage is still clipping since it is before the op amp variable gain stage. Try adjusting the x0xb0x level control to something less than the maximum setting if you want a less harsh distortion. Also, it may go without saying, but instead of always maxing out the controls try adjusting the settings of the Amount control, the Tone control and the x0xb0x level control to greatly change the character of the distortion. One last thing to note is that the output level of the distortion circuit is less than the overdrive. I’ve purposely adjusted the levels so they are somewhat close but the output of the distortion will always be lower because there is no gain stage after the clipping diodes – only a passive tone control, so the once the signal is compressed by the behavior of the clipping diodes the signal level is lowered.\nBass Response. The low frequency response has been extended by one octave from 70Hz to 35Hz. If less bass is needed you can cut low frequency on the mixing board or within your digital audio workstation or wave editor. Leaving the bass response stock and trying to recover more low frequency later by using equalization would not be the ideal way to increase the low frequency response. The high-pass filter is before the VCA and there are distortions that occur in the VCA, output mixer, and overdrive, so it’s not equivalent to boost the low frequency at the final output of the x0xb0x. Below is the frequency response of a stock x0xb0x versus the new extended response:\nVCF Range. The high range of the filter is increased from about 1.2 kHz to 3.5 kHz by simply setting TM3 to its lowest setting (full clockwise). The low range of the filter is also extended by replacing R47 with a lower resistance. This changes the minimum cutoff frequency from about 400 Hz to 80 Hz. Below is the frequency response for min and max cutoff for both the new settings and the stock settings:\nEnv Mod Range. R61 is replaced with a 0 Ohm resistor to give no envelope modulation when VR5 is set to minimum.\nVCO FM. An audio signal can be input on the ring of the MIXIN jack to frequency modulate the VCO. C325 is a coupling cap. IC304a and R338, R339 and R340 form an inverting amplifier to amplify the input signal so that it can modulate the VCO to a greater amount. The signal is biased to the 6V supply to allow it to work on single supply. The output of the op amp goes to the frequency modulation input of the VCO through R341 and another coupling cap C326.\nFilter Hi Range. This is a DPDT switch. One pole simply inserts R348 in parallel with R73 to increase the maximum cutoff frequency of the filter. The second pole is used to turn on an LED on the top panel when the switch is engaged. It is not used with the I/O only mod. When installing the full mod connection G goes to the top panel mod. When the switch is on the maximum filter cutoff frequency is increased to 14 KHz. The filter can start to become unstable with higher settings of resonance. The frequency response for both positions of the switch is shown below:\nENV2 to VCO2 Switch. This switch determines whether the ENV2 to VCO amount control on the full x0xi0 mod is sent to VCO2. By default it is hard-wired to VCO1 only. This switch is not used on the x0xi0 I/O only kit and can be used for any other mod.", "domain": "instrument_science"} +{"url": "https://teevalet.com/best-range-finders-for-men/", "date": "2024-04-12T12:30:22Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296815919.75/warc/CC-MAIN-20240412101354-20240412131354-00142.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9124171137809753, "token_count": 2534, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2024-18", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2024-18__0__180693720", "lang": "en", "text": "Range finders have revolutionized the way men engage in various activities that require accurate distance measurements.

In this section, we will discuss the basics of range finding, offer tips for accurate measurements, and provide specific techniques for various activities such as golfing, hunting, archery, shooting, and outdoor adventure sports.\nBy mastering the art of using range finders, you can maximize their potential and elevate your performance in your chosen activities.\nUnderstanding the Basics of Range Finding\nBefore diving into the specific techniques, it is crucial to grasp the fundamentals of range finding. Range finders work by emitting a laser beam towards the target and measuring the time it takes for the beam to bounce back.\nBy calculating the time it takes for the beam to travel to the target and return, the range finder determines the distance between the user and the target accurately. Most range finders display the distance measurement on a digital screen or through the viewfinder.\nRange finders often come with different modes to cater to various situations. Some common modes include standard mode, scan mode, and pin-seeking mode.\nIn standard mode, you aim at a single target and press the button to get a distance reading. Scan mode is useful when you need continuous distance readings while panning across multiple targets. Pin-seeking mode is specifically designed for golfers, helping them lock onto the flagstick amidst background clutter.\nTips for Accurate Measurements\nTo ensure accurate measurements with your range finder, consider the following tips:\n- Stability and Positioning: When using a range finder, stabilize your hands and maintain a steady grip to minimize any shaking or movement. This will help prevent inaccurate readings caused by unnecessary motion. Additionally, position yourself in a stable and comfortable stance, allowing for better target acquisition and distance measurement.\n- Adjusting for Slope or Angle: In some activities, such as golfing or shooting on hilly terrain, it is crucial to account for slope or angle. Many range finders have a built-in feature that allows you to adjust for slope, providing you with the true horizontal distance. This compensates for the angle and ensures more accurate distance measurements.\n- Reflective Targets: Keep in mind that range finders work best when targeting objects with reflective surfaces. Smooth, reflective surfaces provide a more distinct and accurate return signal, resulting in more precise distance readings. In contrast, non-reflective or transparent objects may be more challenging for the range finder to measure accurately.\nRange Finding Techniques for Specific Activities\nFor golfers, range finders are invaluable tools for accurately measuring distances to various points on the course.

This includes measuring blood sugar, blood pressure and EKGs. The former as a non-invasive solution that will make life easier for many people.\nHuawei Wants to Monitor Blood Sugar, Blood Pressure and ECG With a Smartwatch\nSmartwatches are no longer just watches that can display notifications and measure the pulse, they are almost becoming medical products. Apple drove the trend, now Huawei seems to be moving into the fast lane. At the “China Medical Development Conference” in Beijing, Xu Wenwei, Huawei’s Research & Development Director, explained the next steps for smartwatches – reports Notebookcheck. Accordingly, Huawei wants to create the non-invasive way of continuously measuring blood sugar in the future. So far it has been the case that you needed some blood to measure your blood sugar. This would make life so much easier for people who have to test their blood sugar regularly.\nApple has also been working on a way to measure blood sugar using Apple Watch for several years but has so far failed because of the major obstacles that a non-invasive solution brings with it. The technology could not be built into an Apple Watch until 2022 at the earliest, and Huawei could anticipate this. In addition to measuring blood sugar, Huawei also wants to have blood pressure and ECG measured continuously with a smartwatch. That would also be a big step compared to current models, where you have to measure blood pressure or an EKG manually. The Chinese company could monitor the body permanently without people having to pull themselves up to measure blood pressure or take an EKG.\nHow Does Huawei Intend to do That?\nAnyone who owns a smartwatch with blood pressure measurement or EKG function knows that manual use is not that easy. You have to sit down quietly and take a measurement for several seconds. In addition, the results often vary greatly. If Huawei wants to achieve a measurement with correct results, the technology must really work properly . If approval as a medical product is sought, the requirements for this are also very high. It will be exciting to see if that works.

For decades, scientists have gone through a tedious two step process of first separating proteins, followed by protein blotting of the results of the first step. Gels used in the first step can fall apart or be damaged when they are removed from an electrophoresis machine, resulting in destruction of the sample. When the sample is destroyed, scientists must return to the time consuming preparation of new protein samples, which can be problematic when, for example, the original protein sample is very small and was isolated from a large volume of starting material or rare starting material that may be difficult to obtain. Dr. Woodham combined the two steps with an ingenious use of conductive polymers to permit the lateral transfer of the sample to the blotting material after the electrophoretic separation step has been completed, thereby eliminating the dangerous step of removing the gel in order to create the protein blot.

These cables are made of incredibly thin strands of glass or plastic, and they use the principle of total internal reflection to transmit data using light signals. This makes fiber optics capable of carrying information over long distances with minimal loss of signal strength.\nThe Advantages of Fiber Optic Cables\nFiber optic cable offers several significant advantages over traditional copper cables, making them the preferred choice for high-speed data transmission. One of the key advantages is their ability to transmit data at lightning-fast speeds.\nLightning-Fast Speeds for Internet Connectivity\nOne of the primary reasons why fiber optics are gaining popularity is their unmatched speed. Fiber optics can transmit data at the speed of light, which is significantly faster than the speeds achievable with copper cables. This results in lightning-fast internet connectivity, allowing for quick and seamless online experiences.\nWith fiber optics, you can enjoy faster download and upload speeds, smoother video streaming, lag-free online gaming, and quicker data transfers. This is especially crucial in today’s digital world, where fast and reliable internet connectivity is essential for various activities, such as remote work, online education, streaming content, and more.\nEnhanced Reliability and Signal Quality\nFiber optics are also known for their enhanced reliability and signal quality. Unlike copper cables, which are susceptible to interference from various sources, such as electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio-frequency interference (RFI), fiber optics are immune to these types of interference. This results in a more stable and consistent internet connection, with minimal disruptions and signal degradation.\nFiber optics are also less prone to attenuation, which is the loss of signal strength over long distances. This means that data can be transmitted over longer distances without the need for repeaters or signal boosters, making fiber optics ideal for long-haul data transmission.\nFurthermore, fiber optics are resistant to environmental factors, such as moisture, temperature fluctuations, and corrosion, which can degrade signal quality in copper cables. This makes fiber optics more reliable and durable, ensuring consistent performance even in challenging conditions.\nFuture-Proofing Your Connectivity\nAnother significant advantage of fiber optics is that they are future-proof, meaning they are capable of handling increasing data demands in the future. As technology continues to advance and data requirements continue to grow, fiber optics can provide the necessary bandwidth and speeds to meet these demands.\nFiber optics have a much higher bandwidth capacity compared to copper cables, allowing for the transmission of large amounts of data simultaneously. This makes them well-suited for applications that require high bandwidth, such as cloud computing, virtual reality, and the Internet of Things (IoT).\nInvesting in fiber optics for your internet connectivity is a future-proof solution that can ensure your network can handle the ever-increasing data demands of the modern world without the need for costly upgrades or replacements in the near future.\nWide Range of Applications\nFiber optics are widely used in various industries, including telecommunications, internet service providers (ISPs), data centers, and more. They are increasingly becoming the preferred choice for high-speed internet connectivity due to their numerous advantages over traditional copper cables.\nLong-Term Economic Benefits\nIn addition to their technical advantages, fiber optics also offer economic benefits. While the initial installation costs of fiber optics may be higher than traditional copper cables, the long-term benefits and cost savings outweigh the initial investment. Fiber optics require less maintenance, have longer lifespans, and can result in lower energy consumption, making them a cost-effective solution in the long run.\nGetting Started With Fiber Optics Wifi\nFiber optics WiFi, also known as fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) or fiber-to-the-premises (FTTP) internet service, requires professional installation due to the complexity and specialized equipment involved. Contact the internet service providers in your area to check if they offer FTTH or FTTP service and if it is available at your location. ISPs typically have online tools or customer service representatives who can provide information about service availability.\nIn conclusion, fiber optics are revolutionizing the way we transmit data, voice, and video signals, providing lightning-fast speeds for internet connectivity.

Empowering scientists to make their own coils makes sense. The demand for specialized coils has outpaced the rate at which Elumalai can design them. Additionally, sometimes the coils break, causing an experiment to come to a halt.\nAt the workshop from June 20 to 24, participants learned the physics behind RF coils and underwent training in specialized software for designing and modeling how the coils will behave under different magnetic fields and with different samples. Participants also had the chance to build their own coil and test it in the MagLab’s 4.7 tesla imaging magnet.\nHow do RF coils in MRI machines work? First, the coil transmits an RF signal, which produces a magnetic field perpendicular to the one already being produced by the magnet. Then, the same RF coil (or a separate one) receives signals indicating how the nuclear spins inside the subject are relaxing. This information is then processed as an image.

Funded in part by the Energy Department (DOE) through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, the new facilities will help accelerate the development and deployment of next-generation technologies for both offshore and land-based wind energy systems.\nFormer military base now home to advanced wind facility\nLocated on the site of a former Navy base with easy access to both rail and deepwater transport, the Clemson facility in North Charleston is ideal for testing the large, commercial scale turbines being developed by manufacturers for offshore wind farms. This facility, which opened last week, is equipped with 7.5-megawatt (MW) and 15-MW dynamometers that will enable the wind industry and testing agencies to verify the performance and reliability of drivetrain prototypes and commercial machines by simulating operating field conditions in a laboratory environment. Verifying a wind system’s performance before it is commercially deployed reduces risk for both the manufacturer and system operator, and facilities like Clemson’s can simulate as much as 20 years’ worth of wear and tear on drivetrains in a few months.\nIn addition to testing the performance of the drivetrains, Clemson is using the facility’s electrical infrastructure to build a 15-MW hardware-in-the-loop grid simulator. The grid simulator will mimic real-world circumstances, such as wide-area power disruptions, frequency fluctuations, voltage drops, cascading accidents, and cyber or physical attacks, to determine the effects of wind turbines on utility grids and grids on wind turbines.\nGaining insight through expertise\nDOE’s second new test facility at NREL’s National Wind Technology Center near Boulder, which also opened last week, offers industry the capability to perform accelerated tests on wind turbine drivetrains with capacity ratings of up to 5-MW. In addition, industry partners that use the facility gain access to on-site engineers with more than three decades of engineering experience.\nNWTC now has two dynamometers that can be connected either directly to the grid or to a controllable grid interface (CGI).

Generally speaking, overpressure burners have a very high combustion efficiency but a short flame. With our technical solution, we managed to stretch the flame to an even greater length than the previous model. As a result, the temperatures of the radiation tubes are evenly distributed and there is no overheating in the first two meters behind the burner box.\nThe gas radiant tube is delivered right from the Lersen production plant in individual segments 2m in length, already completely assembled. Therefore, the assembly itself is very simple: you just need to assemble them together and connect with six screws.\nMOM – DAD Dilatation\nCOMPACT2 uses a unique dilatation system developed at Lersen. It is a system we familiarly call “MOM <-> DAD”. The radiation tubes are equipped with very precisely turned flanges, which are welded to the radiation tube. The “MOM” flange is firmly attached to the segment face and the “DAD” flange is loose. When the radiating tubes start to expand due to the heat, the “DAD” flange slides into the “MOM” flange. The dilatation therefore takes place inside the radiation tubes and does not affect the design of the device. Infrared heaters are therefore not deformed by heat and always remain dimensionally stable.\nThe electronics in the new COMPACT2 gas radiant tube keep the burner fan running at minimum speed after the heating has been switched off, thus preventing the direction of the draft from rotating. The hot air, heated by the accumulated heat from the radiation tubes, therefore still flows from the burner to the flue and the energy is gradually sent into the hall without uselessly escaping by suction to the exterior. The whole system is controlled by a temperature sensor in the flue gas, so the time for HEATENDING can vary and is determined by the speed at which the residual heat is sent to the hall.\nLersen’s ANTI-CONDENSATION system can effectively prevent condensation in the radiant tubes by not allowing the burner to switch off until the device warms up to operating temperature, helping to extract any condensate, but it has little effect on eliminating condensate in long uninsulated or coaxial flues.", "domain": "instrument_science"}
