20120256618 | SURGE CURRENT DETECTION DEVICE - A surge current detection device | 10-11-2012 |
20120286772 | Metallic Pipeline Current Reader and Third Party Strike Damage Detector - This invention relates to the pipeline corrosion prevention and third party strike pipeline damage. The detector comprises of dual axis Anisotropic Magnetoresistive (AMR) magnetic sensor, analog signal conditional circuitry, digital circuitry, and a display. A pipe current magnitude and direction is measured via magnetic field surrounding the pipe. Magnetic field is sensed by the Anisotropic Magnetoresistive (AMR) magnetic sensor. The sensor converts magnetic field values into an electrical potential difference. This potential difference is converted into digital data and displayed on either computer screen or an LCD display. The current reader will be installed on a pipe and take continuous magnetic field reads (amplitude and direction). | 11-15-2012 |
