The present invention provides a flow apparatus () having a flow control valve () having a housing (), an aperture (), an aperture obturator () and an actuator () for moving said obturator () between a first closed position and multiple open positions (B-L), characterised by a valve position monitor () for monitoring the position of the valve () and comprising a plurality of discrete sensors (to) associated with a plurality of open positions (B-L) of said valve for monitoring the presence or absence of one or more members () movable with said valve (). The arrangement may be used to monitor the valve position and such monitoring may be of use in the prediction of the amount of fluid remaining within a cylinder () to which it has been attached.

Flow apparatus and monitoring system relating thereto

A photodynamic therapy lamp includes two lamp modules comprising an array of LEDs. Each of the lamp modules is movable between a first position in which an angle between the lamp modules is from 157 degrees to 180 degrees, and a second position in which the angle between the lamp modules is from 50 degrees to 70 degrees.

Light treatment apparatus

An electronic device, particularly a postage meter machine, has a central processing unit, at least one memory connected to the central processing unit in which at least one program unit is stored which the processing unit accesses for the configuration or the operation of the processing unit or of a function unit connected to the processing unit, and a position determination unit connected to the processing unit. A number of location-specific program units are stored in the memory and the processing unit is fashioned such that it accesses the location-specific program unit in the memory corresponding to the location of the device determined by the position determination unit.

Electronic device with automatic capability for location-specific software configuration

An electrically operated consumable module to be inserted into a holder of an electronic appliance, in particular an ink cartridge for the printing device of a franking machine, has a consumable device, electrical connecting elements which are connected thereto and which have contact elements to connect the consumable module to a consumable-module controller of the electronic appliance. The consumable module also has a projection to interact with the holder to prevent an insertion into other types of holders. The connecting elements are configured and/or assigned to the projection in such a way that they are at least partly destroyed in the event of an unauthorized removal of the projection.
