[] [Three new liquid and gas pumps](
[Three new liquid and gas pumps](
KNF Neuberger, Inc.
KNF introduces two new low pulsation diaphragm liquid pumps: [FP 400]( and [FK 1100]( with flow rates to 5 and 12 L/min, respectively. Both offer self-priming, run-dry ability and long lifetimes, coupled with pulsation levels comparable to gear pumps. Also introducing economical [NPK 012]( swing-piston gas pump: 30% shorter and half the weight of others in its class. It reaches 25.8 inHg with a flow rate to 13.5 L/min, delivering 36 psi continuously and 72 psi intermittently.

[Dottown deaths](
Each resident of the fantastical city of Dottown carries a red or blue dot on his (or her) forehead, but if he determines the color, he dies that night. One day a stranger arrives, proclaiming there is at least one resident with a red dot. Mathematically, what happens to Dottown after that day?

TECH ARTICLE
[]
[How do thin position sensors work?](
"Thin linear potentiometers, or position sensors, are a unique component used to correlate the specific position of an actuator, physical contact, or touch to the sensor's output. When physical contact is applied to the conductive area, the electrical output of the sensor varies with respect to the position of the actuator." [Read this article in its entirety](.
