A measuring device for metering a fluid. The measuring device includes a container with the fluid, a fluid inlet which is fluidically connected to the container, a fluid outlet which is fluidically connectable with a metering point, a metering line which connects the fluid inlet with the fluid outlet, a delivery pump arranged in the metering line, a density sensor arranged in the metering line, a flow meter arranged in the metering line, and a recirculation line which is arranged to branch off from the metering line downstream of the flow meter and to open into the container. The flow meter is arranged in a measuring unit housing which is arranged at a distance from a pump unit housing in which at least the delivery pump is arranged. The pump unit housing is detachably connected to the measuring unit housing via a connection portion of the metering line.

The invention provides an apparatus and method for measuring fluid flow rates. The apparatus comprises a meter body comprising a throughbore with a fluid flow path and a flow displacement member. The apparatus also provides a sleeve slidably mounted within the fluid flow path. The sleeve is configured to be movable between at least two axial positions within the fluid flow path to select a predetermined flow rate measurement range for the flow measurement apparatus.

A thermostatic control device for a thermostatic mixer tap has a temperature sensor that measures the temperature of a mixed fluid, a flow rate sensor that measures the flow rate of the stream of the mixed fluid when the control device is in a flowing state, and an incorporated electronic circuit having a programmable electronic computer, a communication interface provided with a radio antenna, and an electric energy reserve, capable of powering the electronic computer and the communication interface. The electronic circuit collects information measured by the sensors and transmits this information to the outside via the communication interface.

Systems, methods and tools for tracking the amounts of merchandise being displayed or available for sale in a retail environment using measurements of air displacement caused by the movement of customers, employees and shopping carts throughout a retail environment. The disclosed embodiments may position air displacement sensors throughout a store and near the products being offered for sale. As the merchandise is removed by customers, a greater amount of air may be measured. Embodiments of each sensor device may be calibrated with a maximum threshold measurement of air displacement corresponding to the amount of merchandise surrounding the sensor. After enough of the products have been removed from the surrounding proximity of the sensor, the maximum threshold of air displacement may be reached, wherein upon exceeding the maximum threshold of air displacement a signal may be sent alerting employees to restock the specified merchandise proximate to the sensor's location.

A radial fan has a housing with a motor-drivable fan wheel. The fan wheel generates an air volume flow during operation. The housing has a blow-out portion (4) with an impeller (5). The impeller (5) has a plurality of impeller blades (7) spaced apart in the circumferential direction. The impeller (5) is driven by the air volume flow generated by the fan wheel.
