Abstract: A stacked energy storage device (ESD) has at least two cell segments arranged in a stack. Each cell segment may have a first electrode unit having a first active material electrode, a second electrode unit having a second active material electrode, and an electrolyte layer between the active material electrodes. The ESD includes at least two sub-stacks, where the elements of each respective sub-stack are electrically coupled in series with other elements of the sub-stack. The sub-stacks may be placed in a single stack, and the sub-stacks may be electrically coupled in parallel, in series, or both, with other sub-stacks to create an ESD with a particular voltage and current capacity. The entire stack may be contained by a single pair of end caps.

Abstract: Concentrations of a target analyte in a gas mixture containing one or more background analytes having potentially interfering spectral absorption features can be calculated by compensating for background analyte absorption at a target wavelength used to quantify the target analyte. Absorption can be measured at a reference wavelength chosen to quantify the concentration of the background analyte. Using a background gas adjustment factor or function, the absorption measured at the reference wavelength can be used to calculate absorption due to the background analyte at the target wavelength and thereby compensate for this background absorption to more accurately calculate the target analyte concentration in real or near real time. Additional background analytes can optionally be compensated for by using one or more additional reference wavelengths.

Abstract: A system and method for monitoring the remaining useable life, or “wellness,” of a contactor or motor starter, and for predicting impending faults of such a device, is disclosed. By monitoring actuating coil current, actuating coil voltage, line current, and/or line voltage, the present invention can calculate wellness metrics which, when compared to threshold values, may be used as indicators of remaining life and/or imminent failures. The invention also provides non-mechanical positive indications of proper closures and openings of contacts for safety interlocking.

Abstract: A circuit breaker includes a first lug and second and third acoustic lugs electrically connected to a power circuit. Separable contacts are electrically connected in series between the first lug and the second acoustic lug. An operating mechanism opens and closes the separable contacts. A first acoustic sensor is coupled to the second acoustic lug and senses a first acoustic signal from the second acoustic lug. A second acoustic sensor is coupled to the third acoustic lug and senses a second acoustic signal from the third acoustic lug. The first and second acoustic signals are operatively associated with a power circuit fault. A current sensor senses a current flowing between the first and second lugs. A circuit inputs the sensed acoustic signals and the sensed current and detects and distinguishes a parallel arc fault or a series arc fault from the sensed acoustic signals and the sensed current.

Abstract: Low concentrations of methane in a gas mixture containing a substantial concentration of carbon dioxide can be detected and quantified using absorption spectroscopy in the infrared spectral region. Absorption spectra can recorded using tunable diode lasers as the light source. Modulation of the laser signal and demodulation of the resultant detector response yields dependable measurements that may be conducted with very little maintenance in demanding environments.
