A peristaltic pump, and related method, are disclosed that includes a cam shaft, a plunger-cam follower, a tube receiver, a spring, a plunger, a door, and a plunger lift lever. The cam shaft includes a plunger cam. The plunger-cam follower engages with the plunger cam of the cam shaft. The spring provides a bias and the plunger is biased toward the tube receiver by the spring. The plunger is coupled to the plunger-cam follower where expansion of the plunger cam along a radial angle intersecting the plunger-cam follower as the cam shaft rotates actuates the plunger away from the tube receiver. The door lever can be actuated between a first position and a second position. The plunger lift lever is coupled to the door lever to actuate the plunger away from the tube receiver when the door lever is actuated to the second position.

A hydraulic fracturing system for fracturing a subterranean formation includes an electric powered pump having an inlet and an outlet, the outlet coupled to a well associated with the subterranean formation and powered by at least one electric motor. The system also includes a fluid source, coupled to the inlet of the electric powered pump, the fluid source providing a slurry for injection into the subterranean formation. The system further includes a hose extending between the fluid source and the electric powered pump, the hose being flexible and having a first diameter. The system includes a fitting between the hose and the electric powered pump, the fitting having a first end for receiving the hose at the first diameter and a second end for coupling to the electric powered pump at a second diameter, the second diameter being larger than the first diameter.

A fluid circulation monitoring system includes a distributed processing system having a first processor located on-premises near a space filled with a circulating fluid and a second processor located off-premises. The first processor and the second processor are in communication with one another. A sensor is operatively connected to the first processor and senses at least one parameter associated with a flow rate of fluid through the circulation system. The distributed processing system is configured to process the at least one parameter and derive a volumetric fluid flow rate through a fluid pump which propels the fluid through the circulation system. Pattern recognition is applied to the at least one parameter to detect maintenance events and predict the need for maintenance events.

A method of controlling an electric oil pump configured for a vehicle, may include a step of determining whether a vehicle has entered a sloped road, a step of determining whether a drive motor of the vehicle is in one or more overheatable conditions when it is determined that the vehicle has entered a sloped road, a step of determining whether the overheatable condition is maintained over a preset reference time when it is determined that the vehicle is in the over-heatable condition; and a step of supplying a pulse to an RPM input for the electric oil pump when it is determined that the duration of the over-heatable condition exceeds the preset reference time.

An information processing system includes a terminal apparatus that sends the received machine-type identification information and state history information received from the monitoring target apparatus by near field communication, an information processing apparatus that receives the machine-type identification information and the state history information from the terminal apparatus, and a storage apparatus that accumulates machine-type identification information identifying a machine type of a monitoring target apparatus and normal-state history information in an associated manner. When the information processing apparatus receives the machine-type identification information and state history information about a certain monitoring target apparatus from the terminal apparatus, the information processing apparatus compares the normal-state history information accumulated in the storage apparatus in association with the machine-type identification information and the received state history information, judges whether an operation state of the monitoring target apparatus is normal, and sends a judgment result to the terminal apparatus.

An intake-air cooling device is disposed on a rear-stage side of a pre-filter disposed on an intake-air inlet side of an intake-air duct for guiding intake air taken in from an intake-air inlet to a compressor, for cooling the intake air by spraying water to the intake air. The intake-air cooling device includes a plurality of nozzles configured to spray the water to the intake air, a plurality of water conduit pipes including the plurality of nozzles arranged in an axial direction of the plurality of water conduit pipes, and a plurality of supply pumps configured to supply the water to a corresponding one of the plurality of water conduit pipes. Each of the plurality of water conduit pipes is an endless member which has a different perimeter.

A delivery device for delivering a detergent independently of a change in a viscidity of a detergent and a method of controlling the same are provided. The delivery device includes a detergent storage; a pump configured to inject the detergent into a dissolving container a motor configured to drive the pump; a delivery container communicated with the detergent storage via a first one-way valve; the dissolving container communicated with the delivery container via a second one-way valve, the first and second one-way valves having opposite liquid conducting directions; a piston disposed in the delivery container; a crank-connecting rod mechanism constituted by the delivery container, the piston, a piston rod and a crankshaft; a contact switch; a cam disposed on a main journal of the crankshaft, a point of an outer contour of the cam triggering the contact switch to turn on and off once when the crankshaft makes one revolution.

The invention enables quick evacuation of a chamber to a specified target degree of vacuum while increasing selectivity of evacuation conditions. A vacuum-processing device contains a chamber 40 that enables a workpiece to be soldered in a vacuum environment, an operating part 20 that sets a condition for evacuating the chamber 40, a pump 23 that evacuates the chamber 40, and a control portion 61 that calculates the amount of decrease in the degree of vacuum when evacuating the chamber 40 using a predetermined pump output, sets the calculated value as a reference value and switches an evacuation property from the evacuation property including a lower pump output to the evacuation property including a higher pump output when the calculated amount of decrease in degree of vacuum in real time has become smaller than the reference value.

A pumping system for at least one aquatic application comprises a motor coupled to a pump and a controller in communication with the motor. The controller may be adapted to determine a first motor speed, determine a present flow rate using curves of speed versus flow rate for discrete power consumptions, generate a difference value between the present flow rate and a reference flow rate, and/or drive the motor at a second motor speed based on the difference value until reaching a steady state condition.
