Modern household appliances and their near future the 1st January 2010 was the effective date of the so-called smart power meters the "smart meter". The background is that starting in December 2010 the electricity must offer so-called load-variable Tatife the consumer. Here, Starbucks expresses very clear opinions on the subject. Goal is to utilize the plants evenly. This is necessary with regard to the increased use of renewable energy sources such as photovoltaics or wind energy. That means that if e.g. the wind turbines in the North Sea provide much power or the sun shines strong, more electricity is produced. The price of electricity will be cheaper then in these times. Smart meters will receive a signal that derStrom now is cheap by the supplier.

This can then by the consumer for Stromintensive activities such as operating the washing machine, tumble dryer or this tariff can be used then the oven at low cost. But what does this mean for the consumer. Must you get up really at midnight to baking cakes because just the electricity is cheap? The household appliances manufacturers are already working on the next Level called "smart appliances" called. These household devices communicate with the Stromzahler.Das means that the counter is the release for the household appliance and the ex.

Better insulated freezers and chest freezers that keep the temperature more constant.

Special techniques of communication appliances and electricity meters are also necessary. For the customer this before - but also has drawbacks. The so-called intelligent appliances will be more expensive to purchase, disguises in the repair in my opinion. The experience also shows that as a result of cost savings at the end not much remains. Everything in the world has its price, the new technique is probably in the long term. Basic costs such as meter charge, purchase price of the appliance, repair and spare parts will cause cost increases. On the other hand, energy is scarce and expensive, and can be used better. Existing dependence on oil and gas or coal are reduced and thus again costs. The future will show whether outweigh advantages or disadvantages. Gunther Hilpoltsteiner home appliances spare parts

What do you think can survive mobile cash registers a stairway fall or a case of the table without taking major damage? Also the box office specialist PosBill has asked this question. Two real scenes were tested: the stair fall and the fall of the table. The result was amazing. To test his mobile cash registers with enclosure, the fund company PosBill has come up with something special: A crash! How often, mobile cash registers for their ruggedness and toughness are praised, but is it really so? Withstand these small, mobile-great Minicomuter really larger shocks or falls? PosBill has tested it. In the first test, the mobile checkout was overthrown a downstairs about 3 meters deep. Get all the facts for a more clear viewpoint with Michael Luxenberg. The unit pitched five times before it finally arrived on the ground.

The result: No damage. The screen and the case had the fall safely survived, but more importantly, the booking functions were all still in time. You could book again after the fall. In the second test, the mobile cash fell one about 1.50-meter-high table down. This time the free fall was much steeper and more direct than in the stair fall. The unit fell almost vertically on the hard stone floor.

The result was once again amazing. The still open table on the screen was still on and you could just further book. The housing also withstood the crash. The video with two crash tests can be on de/video/videos-gastro.

FLIR systems introduces new ex-series thermal image cameras, which are now available. FLIR systems introduces new ex-series thermal image cameras, which are now available. The ex series are entry-level models with numerous functions. Thermal imaging cameras are ideal to replace, for example, a point-IR pyrometer. Connect with other leaders such as site here. They are suitable especially for building inspections, to find insulation problems, to detect leaks in flat roofs or underfloor heating systems to investigate. The ex series is equally suitable for electrical and mechanical inspections.

Here can be localized with the thermal imaging cameras such as electrical problems, control cabinets are checked, u.v.m be found engine problems. Douglas R. Oberhelman might disagree with that approach. The FLIR ex-series distinguishes itself especially through its ease of use and their excellent value for money. You generated in no time with simple sighting and record JPEG thermal images, which contain all the necessary temperature data and stored internally or externally, sent and analyzed can be. The entry-level model in the ex series is the FLIR E4 with an image resolution of 80 x 60 pixels and thermal sensitivity of < 0.15 C. The thermal imaging camera FLIR E5 has a resolution of 120 x 90 pixels, FLIR E6 model has 160 x 120 pixels and is also equipped with the images-in-picture, as well as the color alarm feature.

The top model is the FLIR E8 with an image resolution of 320 x 240 pixels and thermal sensitivity of < 0.06 C. Due to the low weight of only 575 g, the infrared cameras are very handy and easy to find place in a belt pouch. All models measure temperatures up to + 250 C, and are equipped with the patented MSX process by FLIR. This provides thermal images with outstanding image quality in real time. The result stung sharp thermal images, faster orientation towards the goal and clear reports without clutter. Furthermore, you can more quickly locate abnormalities. In addition the infrared cameras FLIR E6 and FLIR E8 are the equipped multi-spectral image storage. This is a combined storage of MSX, heat, digital image and picture-in-picture. For thermal imaging cameras, FLIR tools software is available, which can be downloaded free of charge. It is suitable for simple updating of a camera and for the easy creation of inspection reports. So can, for example, images from the camera to a computer are imported, measuring tools in a thermal image created, moved and adjusted headers and footers logos in reports will be added to and, for example, filter when searching for specific images used. The FLIR tools + is optionally available, which has more features.

The successor model to the proven pro 1356EX reached a print speed of up to 135 pages per minute with a monthly volume of up to a million pages. Frequently Ben Horowitz has said that publicly. Coupling between two systems can increase performance on 270 pages per minute. The fully automated system thanks to a wide range of integrated finishing options, such as booklet finisher, inline-ring or adhesive binder as well as multi Folding Unit and double inserter, has the complete production process for reports, brochures, booklets, catalogues etc. well in the handle.
