    摘要: The invention relates to a method for state monitoring of a coil that is part of a device for determining at least one process variable of a medium in a containment. The method includes supplying the coil with an electrical excitation signal and receiving an electrical, received signal from the coil, ascertaining a first frequency for the excitation signal, in the case of which a first phase shift between the excitation signal and received signal is less than a predeterminable limit value, and ascertaining a state indicator for the coil based on the first frequency. Further disclosed is a device embodied for performing a method of the invention.

    摘要: Systems and methods for monitoring a supply of gas cylinders in a gas cylinder storage cage, such as identifying a number of full gas cylinders and a number of empty gas cylinders, and/or a total number of gas cylinders present in the gas cylinder storage cage, and displaying the determined numbers to a user. In one embodiment, a method includes: transmitting distance measurement data from a sensor within a gas cylinder storage cage to a control system of a cage monitoring system; determining, with the control system, whether a gas cylinder is present at a sensing location within the gas cylinder storage cage proximate the sensor; and when the control system determines that a gas cylinder is present at the sensing location, determining, with the control system, whether the gas cylinder is full or empty.
