A system and method are disclosed for predictive determination of a process variable (P) in a technical installation. Measured values for the process variable (P) are recorded at predeterminable points in time. Temporally successive recorded measured values are combined to form a weighted measured value. A discrete measured value is assigned to each weighted measured value. Each weighted measured value that lies in a predeterminable tolerance band is assigned a same discrete measured value. A future temporal progression of the process variable (P) is estimated using a linear regression of the discrete measured values, and a point in time in which the process variable (P) reaches a predeterminable limit value is calculated.

A system for a machine, in particular an automated production machine, has a large number of proximity sensors. Each proximity sensor has at least one secondary winding that is suitable for drawing power from a medium-frequency magnetic field. At least one primary winding, which is fed from a medium-frequency oscillator, is provided for supplying the proximity sensors with electrical power without using wires. Each proximity sensor is equipped with a transmitting device that emits radio signals, which contain sensor information of interest, to a central receiving device that is connected to a process computer for the machine. A proximity sensor and a primary winding for this purpose are also proposed.

A power distribution system is described for supplying power to electronic assemblies, in particular for use in the field of deep ocean oil production. The electrical power is supplied from a voltage source via a supply cable to theprimary winding of a distribution transformer. A number of secondary windings, preferably four, are disposed in addition to the primary winding on the core of the distribution transformer. The windings on the common core are subdivided into a number n of winding packs corresponding to the number n of secondary windings, and with each winding pack containing an n-th part of the primary winding and one of the secondary windings. Electronic assemblies are each connected via a connecting cable to one of the secondary windings.

A configuration for supplying a large number of actuators with electrical power without using wires includes at least one primary winding that is fed from a medium-frequency oscillator. Each actuator has at least one secondary winding that is suitable for drawing power from a medium-frequency magnetic field.

A turn-off relief network for a direct voltage converter includes a transformer having a primary winding. At least one clocked power transistor is connected in series with the primary winding. A first series circuit connected parallel to the primary winding includes a diode and a capacitor. A second series circuit connected parallel to the capacitor includes a reversing inductor, a reversing diode for a capacitor voltage and another transistor.
