摘要： A starting circuit for an electric discharge lamp providing an electric current to a lamp having a first and a second filament. The circuit measures a lamp current and a filament temperature and then compares these against a reference voltage. When the lamp current is below a set threshold value, a relay contact disposed between the first and second filament is closed to direct the electric current through the first and second filaments to initiate pre-heating of the lamp. Once the filament temperature exceeds a set threshold, the relay contact is opened and the electric current passes through heated gas inside the lamp.

摘要： A tank gauging system includes an improved level sensor float providing positional information to a level encoder unit having two slotted disks coupled to a gaugehead which alternately admit and interrupt light to optical sensors to provide relative incremental positional change and direction information as well as an error detection capability. The light optical sensors provide two signals, which are directly compared to provide a clock signal for an up/down counter. One of the two signals is delayed and this delayed signal is directly compared against the other signal to provide a direction signal for an up/down counter. A microprocessor converts this information to absolute data and provides it to a transmitter unit. The transmitter may also be provided with data from other gauging sensors, such as an error-compensated temperature measurement of the tank contents. The transmitter may be connected to a remote data acquisition device through isolated inputs and outputs for protection against lightning strikes.
