An improvement in a vapor recovery line in the form of a vortex shedding flow meter installable within such vapor recovery line to monitor the flow rate of vapor being returned through the vapor recovery line, such flow meter including a housing having an inlet flange with an associated inlet connectable to the upstream portion of the vapor recovery line, an outlet flange with an outlet connectable to the downstream portion of the vapor recovery line, a housing for a passageway extending between the inlet and outlet, with a vortex strut extending into the passageway nearer the outlet to generate shed flow vortices and a transmitter-receiver transducer pair positioned nearer the outlet to subject the shed vortices to a sonic beam to effect modulation thereof, and an electronics package within an electronic housing portion for determining from such modulation the flow rate of the vapor passing through the vapor recovery line.

Vapor recovery line flow meter

A system and method for enhancing the functionality of a dual opposing ISA/PCI bus alarm card of an industrial computer where the alarm card includes a microserver for communicating with web-enabled information on the host computer.

Method and system for extending the functionality of an environmental monitor for an industrial personal computer

A system and method for monitoring and managing an industrial computer which generates a web page, the system comprising an internal web page cache which stores numerous recent versions of said web page and makes them available via an independent management appliance CPU and an out-of-band connection to the internet.

System and method for caching web pages on a management appliance for personal computers

A system and method for extending a separation distance between a PC and its accompanying keyboard, video display, mouse and serial port, which includes an internal expansion card disposed in a PC where the expansion card combines/multiplexes conventional keyboard, video display, mouse and serial signals, to/from a combined signal on a single elongated link cable extending to a remote module disposed near the remote keyboard, video display, mouse and ports.

Method and system for extending a distance between a personal computer and a keyboard, video display, a mouse, and serial port

A system and method for providing non-volatile memory to a PC which includes a compact flash expansion slot coupled to a horizontal backplane in an industrial PC and in the alternative, having an externally accessible slot for receiving a compact flash expansion card therein.

Method and system for providing flash memory in an industrial personal computer

A system and method for blind-mateably electrically connecting a 1U industrial personal computer with an industrial PC receiving bay in a rack, where the 1U industrial personal computer has a protuberant printed circuit trace member extending therefrom for cooperation with a blind-mateable connector assembly having a plurality of conductive trace grasping contacts therein.

Method and system for quickly connecting a 1U personal computer

A system and method for blind-mateably electrically connecting a 1 U industrial personal computer with an industrial PC receiving bay in a rack, where the 1 U industrial personal computer has a first dedicated blind-mateable connector for standard equipment disposed on a bracket at the back end of an industrial PC and a second dedicated blind mateable connector for use with a later added expansion card, where the connectors are coupled to circuitry in the 1U industrial personal computer via jumper cables.

Upgradeable system and method for connecting a 1U personal computer

A computer having a backplane and a motherboard disposed on the backplane along with expansion slots for receiving expansion cards. The backplane further having circuitry coupled thereto for performing an alarm function where the alarm circuitry is not coupled to a card occupying one of the expansion slots, instead the alarm circuitry is coupled to the backplane in a manner so that it is not directly under the supervision of the system processor on the motherboard. The alarm circuitry including processors which use the LON bus protocols for receiving and transmitting information relating to environmental conditions in the PC.

Computer having multiple alarm function communication paths

A cooling system for use with compact PCI circuit cards in a computer, where the system includes an array of removable individual airflow-restricting panels disposed beneath the circuit cards. The panels having airflow characteristics which are matched to the circuit cards disposed immediately above, so as to control the volume of airflow across a particular circuit card, depending upon its individual cooling needs.
