Processing raw data stored in an historian device for determining an amount of products passed through a process element in a process control environment is described. A count value is incremented by a counter at a rate at which products pass through the process element. The count value rolls over to zero when the count value reaches a rollover value R. An historian device periodically receives count value data points from the counter. A deadband value D is set in the historian device for distinguishing between rollovers, resets, and reversals. A client device queries the historian device for an amount of products passed through the process element for a timeframe. The historian device selects a set of count value data points from within the queried timeframe. The historian device determines, based on the selected data points and their quality, an amount of products passed through the process element.

A device for dosing or counting objects includes: a plate with a plurality of recesses, each suitable for receiving a single object and arranged in at least two series of at least two rows in parallel along a longitudinal axis, such that the recesses in a first row of one series are offset longitudinally relative to the recesses in the second row of the same series by a non-zero pitch; and a pull element arranged to slide relative to the plate along the longitudinal axis and comprising at least two adjacent tongues, each designed to cover or reveal a corresponding series of rows and arranged to slide relative to one another over a distance equal to the pitch and coupled by a drive mechanism such that the sliding of the pull element along the longitudinal axis over a distance greater than the pitch causes the simultaneous movement of two tongues.

A personal hygiene counting device comprising a body portion adapted to be one or both of connected to or disposed on a support structure having one or more of support members for supporting and/or clasping a personal hygiene item and one or more counting elements for counting the usage of a personal hygiene item.
