A powered air-purifying respirator (PAPR) carriage and assembly includes: a blower assembly configured to draw in and purify ambient air; a power source operably connected to the blower assembly; and a carriage, which is configured to be worn by a user and to receive and carry the blower assembly and the power source. The carriage includes a main body that is configured to be worn on the shoulders of the user and includes a first cavity for receiving the power source and a second cavity for receiving the blower assembly. The first cavity and the second cavity are defined by portions of the main body positioned on opposing anterior and posterior sides of the user when worn. When the PAPR carriage and assembly is in use, the carriage thus causes the weight of the blower assembly and the power source to be distributed across the upper body of the user in a counterbalanced manner.

A system for controlling thermal comfort in a space is provided with variable mode of operation. This system may include a conditioner for conditioning air in the space, and a sensor for measuring a temperature in the space. A controller is provided for controlling the conditioner based on the temperature sensed by the sensor, and a fan for circulating air within the space is regulated based on the temperature sensed by the sensor. A related system for controlling a fan based on height is also provided, as is a system and method for easily and efficiently determining the height of a fan using a simple camera, such as one on a 'smart' phone. A further aspect pertains to a controller, such as for example a portable handheld device, having a user interface adapted for suggesting an increase in a set point temperature of a thermostat based on the selected speed of the fan.

Integrated thermal comfort control system with variable mode of operation

An apparatus for controlling a device in connection with a sensed temperature in a space includes an actuator for regulating the operation of the device, a temperature sensor for providing the sensed temperature, and a thermal antenna connected to the temperature sensor. The thermal antenna may form part of the exposed face of the apparatus. A housing may include partitions, such as a plurality of circuit boards, for communicating with the actuator to provide control for the device. The partitions or circuit boards are spaced apart to form ventilation channels for ventilating heat from the housing, including byway of an encouraging convective flow.

Control with enhanced sensing capabilities

An apparatus is provided for controlling environmental conditions using a fan and a light in connection with a building having a space including a partition, such as a wall. The apparatus may include a control adapted for being mounted to the partition and for coordinating the control of the fan and the light based on a sensed condition, such as temperature or occupancy. Groups of like devices for controlling environmental conditions may be similarly controlled, such as using control. Control may also provide an indication of an operational state of the device(s) controlled by it, or provide for control based on a preference of one or more people upon detecting their presence. Related methods are also described.

A lighting system comprises a plurality of lights, a sensor for measuring a light level associated with each light, and at least one controller for generating a light output from at least one light of the plurality of lights. The controller is adapted for adjusting the light output from the at least one light by an incremental amount to bring the measured light level closer to a target light level, which may correspond to an overall brightness for the space including the lights. Related methods are also disclosed.

A method for use with an imaging apparatus that mounts a printhead having a plurality of ink jetting actuators formed on a substrate that correspond to a plurality of ink jetting nozzles includes determining a resistance associated with the printhead; accessing a memory having stored therein a plurality of individually selectable fire pulse energy values; selecting a first fire pulse energy value of the plurality of individually selectable fire pulse energy values based on the resistance that was determined; and using the first fire pulse energy value for actuating at least one of the plurality of ink jetting actuators during a printing operation.
