An on-load tap changer head includes: a first region for an insulating fluid of the on-load tap changer to flow; a second region separated from the first region by a wall; and a detector for detecting an increased flow speed of the insulating fluid. The detector includes: a flow flap in the first region configured to tilt from a defined flow speed of the insulating fluid from a first position to a second position; a first magnet secured to the flap such that in the second position of the flow flap, the first magnet is in an immediate vicinity of the wall; a second magnet in the second region in the immediate vicinity of the wall; and a switch in the second region that is operationally coupled to the second magnet such that tilting over of the flow flap from the first position to the second position actuates the switch.

Disclosed is a flow heater for new forms of vehicles. The flow heater comprises a passageway for liquid, a heating source, a swing mechanism arranged in the passageway, and a sensor for detecting a position of the swing mechanism.

A pressure sensitive sensor is composed of a cylindrical shape body including therein an inner peripheral surface and a hollow portion along a longitudinal direction of that cylindrical shape body, and being made of an elastic electrical insulating member, and a plurality of electrode wires arranged in a helical shape along the inner peripheral surface of the cylindrical shape body, and arranged in such a manner as to have no contact with each other. In the pressure sensitive sensor, in a cross-sectional view perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the cylindrical shape body, at least some part of the inner peripheral surface of the cylindrical shape body lying between adjacent ones of the plurality of the electrode wires on the inner peripheral surface of the cylindrical shape body is formed in an inner side in radial directions of a circle passing through centers of the plurality of the electrode wires.

A pressure switch system provides a safety mechanism for equipment at a well site environment to prevent the opening or release of certain components when an unsafe condition exists. A pressure switch assembly of the system includes a diaphragm that transitions to an extended position as pressure of a pressurized fluid is flowed through a fluid pathway of the assembly. The diaphragm couples to a pin that transitions along with a dart based on the pressure at the diaphragm. When pressure reaches or exceeds a threshold, the dart is transitioned to a location proximate to a sensor. The sensor triggers actuation of a switch to prevent release or opening of a remote connector of a hydraulics unit until the pressure is at or falls below the threshold. The threshold is set to a pressure based on the unsafe condition.

A flow sensor module employs a fitting which defines an offset sensor bypass which is disposed at an acute angle to a linear flow path through the fitting. A dynamic pressure or flow sensor is disposed in the sensor bypass. A bonnet assembly is removably mounted to the fitting and mounts the sensor and fluidly seals the sensor in the fitting. A solid state controller has a panel which indicates a number of operational conditions including whether there is fluid flow through the flow system. The panel may have a chemical feed pump default indicator, a control valve indicator and an air trap device indicator and, in one embodiment, a manual override switch to turn on a feed pump, a control valve, an air trap device or an electrically operated device.

A flow or level switch comprises a sensor/switch assembly which is adapted for mounting in connection with either a fitting having an offset defining a channel to detect fluid flow through an orifice into the channel or a tank having a ball float to detect the level of the ball float in the tank. A switch module comprises a control rod which reciprocates and activates a switch unit having a bi-positionable contact member. A follower, which may be in the form of an axle with an angularly fixed projection, engages the control rod to cause the contact member to move.

Systems, methods, and apparatuses for regulating the delivery of negative-pressure therapy are described. The system includes a negative-pressure source, an energy source, and a switch. The switch can include a first conductor electrically coupled to the negative-pressure source, a second conductor electrically coupled to the energy source, and a diaphragm having a first position electrically coupling the first conductor to the second conductor and a second position separated from the first conductor and the second conductor. The diaphragm is configured to move between the first position and the second position in response to a differential between a control pressure and a therapy pressure.
