Sensor Cap Life Sample Clauses

Sensor Cap Life. All optical dissolved oxygen sensors work on the same principle, and all must have the sensor cap containing the luminophore replaced periodically due to a phenomenon known as photo bleaching. When a sensor cap is new, the luminophore will return a large number of red photons when excited. As time goes on, a bleaching effect takes place and the number of red photons returned reduces to a point where they are no longer detectable. The amount of photo bleaching that the luminophore suffers is in direct proportion to the amount of time it is excited by the sensor’s blue light source. It therefore follows that the faster a reading can be taken, the less time the luminophore needs to be excited and the longer it will last. The high-speed circuitry within the Micro 800 Probe requires just eleven milliseconds to take a reading. This incredibly fast reading time increases the useful life of the luminophore considerably. Another technique used to prolong the life of the luminophore in the Micro 800 is variable excitation brightness. When the luminophore is new, the brightness of the excitation is reduced to a minimum in order to prevent unnecessary photo bleaching. As the output from the luminophore gradually reduces, the brightness of the excitation is increased in order to squeeze the maximum possible life from the sensor cap. The combination of low duty cycle and variable excitation brightness can stretch the useful life of a sensor cap as far as several years.

  • Unbundled Channelization (Multiplexing) 5.7.1 To the extent NewPhone is purchasing DS1 or DS3 or STS-1 Dedicated Transport pursuant to this Agreement, Unbundled Channelization (UC) provides the optional multiplexing capability that will allow a DS1 (1.544 Mbps) or DS3 (44.736 Mbps) or STS-1 (51.84 Mbps) Network Elements to be multiplexed or channelized at a BellSouth central office. Channelization can be accomplished through the use of a multiplexer or a digital cross-connect system at the discretion of BellSouth. Once UC has been installed, NewPhone may request channel activation on a channelized facility and BellSouth shall connect the requested facilities via COCIs. The COCI must be compatible with the lower capacity facility and ordered with the lower capacity facility. This service is available as defined in NECA 4.

  • Rubric The rubrics are a scoring tool used for the Educator’s self-assessment, the formative assessment, the formative evaluation and the summative evaluation. The districts may use either the rubrics provided by ESE or comparably rigorous and comprehensive rubrics developed or adopted by the district and reviewed by ESE.

  • Local Circuit Switching Capability, including Tandem Switching Capability 4.2.1 Local circuit switching capability is defined as: (A) line-side facilities, which include, but are not limited to, the connection between a loop termination at a main distribution frame and a switch line card; (B) trunk-side facilities, which include, but are not limited to, the connection between trunk termination at a trunk-side cross-connect panel and a switch trunk card; (C) switching provided by remote switching modules; and (D) all features, functions, and capabilities of the switch, which include, but are not limited to: (1) the basic switching function of connecting lines to lines, line to trunks, trunks to lines, and trunks to trunks, as well as the same basic capabilities made available to BellSouth’s customers, such as a telephone number, white page listings, and dial tone; and (2) all other features that the switch is capable of providing, including but not limited to customer calling, customer local area signaling service features, and Centrex, as well as any technically feasible customized routing functions provided by the switch. Any features that are not currently available but are technically feasible through the switch can be requested through the BFR/NBR process.

  • Unbundled Copper Loops (UCL) 2.4.1 BellSouth shall make available Unbundled Copper Loops (UCLs). The UCL is a copper twisted pair Loop that is unencumbered by any intervening equipment (e.g., filters, load coils, range extenders, digital loop carrier, or repeaters) and is not intended to support any particular telecommunications service. The UCL will be offered in two types – Designed and Non-Designed.
