Gauge Pressure Sensor For Hazardous Applications

View page
US Patent:
6715360, Apr 6, 2004
Filed:
Feb 19, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/368697
Inventors:
Donald Paul Pepperling - Marshalltown IA
Dennis Gene Sickels - Marshalltown IA
Richard J. Vanderah - Marshalltown IA
Assignee:
Fisher Controls International, LLC - St. Louis MO
International Classification:
G01L 700
US Classification:
73756, 73706, 73700
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for sensing a gauge pressure use a pressure gauge pressure sensor that includes a housing and a gauge pressure sensing element having a first pressure inlet and a second pressure inlet. The first pressure inlet is associated with a pressure to be measured and the second pressure inlet is associated with an atmospheric pressure. A flame arrestor disposed within the sensor housing fluidly couples the second pressure inlet to an internal portion of an explosion proof device.

Solar Panel And Antenna Mounted On An Explosion-Proof Enclosure

View page
US Patent:
6894659, May 17, 2005
Filed:
Jan 28, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/058476
Inventors:
Donald P. Pepperling - Marshalltown IA, US
Richard J. Vanderah - Marshalltown IA, US
Dennis G. Sickels - Marshalltown IA, US
David C. Sanderson - Marshalltown IA, US
Assignee:
Daniel Industries, Inc. - Houston TX
International Classification:
H01Q001/12
US Classification:
343878
Abstract:
The specification discloses a system for mounting a communications antenna and a solar panel on an explosion-proof housing that does not require the use of conduit ports of the explosion-proof housing. More particularly, a mast couples to the housing by way of a prescribed number of threads, the mast having a circular cross-section and an internal cavity extending along its axis. Wires extending from inside the explosion-proof housing through the mast couple to the radio antenna and the solar panel. The void within the internal diameter of the mast not occupied by the wires for the radio and solar panel is filled with a sealing compound rated for explosive environments.

Gauge Pressure Sensor For Hazardous Applications

US Patent:
7230833, Jun 12, 2007
Filed:
Apr 4, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/278567
Inventors:
Dennis Gene Sickels - Marshalltown IA, US
Assignee:
Daniel Industries, Inc. - Houston TX
International Classification:
H05K 7/10
H05K 7/12
US Classification:
361747, 361740, 361759, 361802, 361788, 361796, 439 761
Abstract:
An electronics module comprises an electronics assembly having a first connector and a second connector. The first and second connectors are disposed on opposite ends of the electronics assembly. A case encloses the electronics assembly. The first connector is accessible through a first side of the case and the second connector is accessible through a second side of the case. A locking tab is disposed on the case and is biased to an extended position. A sliding member is slidably coupled to the case and is operable to move the locking tab to a retracted position.

Control Regulator Having A Rolling Diaphragm

View page
US Patent:
46244425, Nov 25, 1986
Filed:
Jan 23, 1985
Appl. No.:
6/694176
Inventors:
John W. Duffy - Tama IA
William J. Bonzer - Marshalltown IA
Gary L. Scott - Marshalltown IA
Dennis G. Sickels - Marshalltown IA
Ralph W. Zeigler - Marshalltown IA
International Classification:
F16K 31126
US Classification:
251 611
Abstract:
A rolling diaphragm regulator valve is affixed in a globe type valve body and includes a non-stretchable fabric reinforced liner for covering and uncovering, by rolling action in response to changes in pressure in a control chamber, a plurality of slots in a baffle positioned between the valve body inlet and outlet. An axially movable spring-biased nose cone, mounted behind the diaphragm, provides a surface over which the diaphragm is draped for controlling substantially all movement of the diaphragm. A travel indicator is operable by movement of the nose cone to provide a visual indication of the position of the valve.

Velocity Boost Body With Wrap-Around Pitot Tube

View page
US Patent:
47547782, Jul 5, 1988
Filed:
May 26, 1987
Appl. No.:
7/054371
Inventors:
John W. Duffy - Tama IA
Dennis G. Sickels - Marshalltown IA
Assignee:
Fisher Controls International, Inc.
International Classification:
G05D 1602
US Classification:
1374848
Abstract:
A pressure relief diaphragm type regulator valve includes a velocity boost body having an annular-shaped wrap-around pitot tube communicating with the vena contracta of a flowpath. The pressure at the vena contracta is communicated to the diaphragm by a small registration orifice in the boost body. The boost body defines a large relief orifice open to the annular pitot tube, but normally closed off from the diaphragm by a flapper. Under a rapid excess pressure condition, the flapper uncovers the relief orifice and large volume flow is permitted to the diaphragm.

Process Controller With Interchangeable Individual I/O Units

View page
US Patent:
59013230, May 4, 1999
Filed:
Jan 3, 1994
Appl. No.:
8/176330
Inventors:
Jon B. Milliken - Marshalltown IA
Richard J. Vanderah - Marshalltown IA
Dennis G. Sickels - Marshalltown IA
Assignee:
Fisher Controls International, Inc. - Austin TX
International Classification:
G06F 1300
US Classification:
39580001
Abstract:
A controller of the type used in process control includes a plurality of modular I/O units. The I/O units includes I/O circuits which may be of four basic types: digital input circuits, digital output circuit, analog input circuits and analog output circuits. Each of the I/O circuits has a code generator that generates a binary code indicating the type of I/O circuit. The controller is microprocessor-controlled and periodically communicates with the I/O circuits and determines the type of each I/O unit based upon the binary code. The I/O units may be temperature-compensated based upon the temperature within the housing of the controller, and other integrity checks may be performed on the I/O units. The controller also has a change module routine which allows the I/O units to be installed or removed during operation of the controller.
