US Classification:

4498, 700275

Abstract:

A control system is configured for selectively facilitating operation of a mechanized pool cover system. The control system includes a security device and/or a sensor. A controller is in communication with the security device and/or sensor and is configured to selectively generate an actuation signal. A switch circuit is configured to facilitate provision of power from a power source to a pool cover actuator in response to receipt by the switch circuit of the actuation signal. The pool cover actuator is attached to a carriage, and the carriage is attached to a pool cover. The pool cover actuator is configured to selectively drive the carriage to facilitate movement of the pool cover with respect to a pool between a covering position and a non-covering position.

International Classification:

C01B 33/04

US Classification:

423324

Abstract:

The present invention is directed to a condensed phase batch process for synthesis of trisilylamine (TSA). An improved synthesis process that incorporates a solvent to help promote a condensed-phase reaction between ammonia gas (or liquid) and liquified monochlorosilane (MCS) in good yields is described. This process facilitates the removal of the byproduct waste with little to no reactor down time, substantial reduction of down-stream solids contamination and high-purity product from first-pass distillation.
