Integrated Field Monitoring And Communications System
US Patent:
6611208, Aug 26, 2003
Filed:
May 29, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/865600
Inventors:
Albert E. Ketler - Murrysville PA
Assignee:
Rel-Tek - Monroeville PA
International Classification:
G08B 2100
US Classification:
340632, 340534, 340538, 73 232
Abstract:
A field monitoring and communication system for arranging circuits and components for environmental and other types of monitoring systems includes: (a) microprocessor-based modules for communications and a variety of input/output types and combinations: (b) remote and optionally, proximal calibration and regulator modules: (c) a variety of sensor inputs optionally comprising intrinsically safe barriers.
Optical Obscruation Smoke Monitor Having A Shunt Flow Path Located Between Two Access Ports
US Patent:
5420440, May 30, 1995
Filed:
Feb 28, 1994
Appl. No.:
8/202565
Inventors:
Albert E. Ketler - Murrysville PA
Christopher Kolesar - North Huntingdon PA
Christopher Kolesar - North Huntingdon PA
Assignee:
Rel-Tek Corporation - Monroeville PA
International Classification:
G01N 1506
US Classification:
250573
Abstract:
An obscuration type optical smoke monitor is provided for use particularly in dusty and dirty environments. The smoke monitor comprises a housing enclosing a smoke monitoring chamber; two access ports located opposite each other on the housing; a shunt air flow path located between said two access ports; means to conduct air from said access ports through an optical chamber; a light emitting diode at the first end of said optical chamber, which light emitting diode produces a light beam axially through the center of said optical chamber; a photo transistor at the second end of said optical chamber to receive the light bean and issue an electrical signal proportional to the received light intensity; and an electronic module which provides variable electronic output, generating an analog output essentially proportional of the optical obscuration caused by the smoke. Baffle means are provided to minimize extraneous light scattering from dust and dirt in the air,.
Automatic Gas Sensor Calibration System
US Patent:
2004005, Mar 25, 2004
Filed:
Aug 14, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/640384

Assignee:
REL-TEK - Monroeville PA
International Classification:
G01N033/00, G01N037/00
US Classification:
073/001070, 702/100000
Abstract:
An automatic system for calibrating gas sensors comprising a source of SPAN gas and a source of ZERO gas, and a means to control the flow of these gases to sensors. The system schedules and makes all required sensor value corrections and adjustments without human intervention. High resolution monitoring enables life extensions for the sensors, as well as higher accuracy monitoring than would be reasonably expected from low cost sensors.
