A system may include a hose assembly and a controller. The hose assembly may comprise a plurality of sensor devices configured to generate sensor data regarding the hose assembly. The sensor data may include at least one of first sensor data regarding a bend radius of a first portion of the hose assembly, or second sensor data regarding an amount of torque at a second portion of the hose assembly. The controller may be configured to receive the sensor data from the plurality of sensor devices; determine a remaining life of the hose assembly based on the sensor data; and perform an action based on the remaining life of the hose assembly.

A method is proposed for establishing termination criteria for a partial stroke test on a safety valve, including: a) A partial stroke test is carried out when the safety valve is operational. b) Position of the valve member and pressure in the drive fluid are recorded. c) A first relation is derived, which relates position of the valve member, time, pressure of the drive fluid, and/or control deviation to one another. d) This relation is defined as a safety valve reference curve. e) A second relation is defined, which has a predetermined distance from the reference curve. f) Termination criterion include: If the partial stroke test is repeated on the same valve, the same data are recorded and a third relation is derived for the reference curve, the partial stroke test is not passed if the third relation has a greater distance to the reference curve than the second relation.

A system may include a hose assembly; a sensor device; and a controller. The hose assembly may be configured to be connected to a hydraulic circuit of a machine. A first layer, of a hose of the hose assembly, may be configured to transport a hydraulic fluid. A second layer, of the hose, may comprise a tracer material that is configured to be released into the hydraulic fluid when the first layer is experiencing a failure. The sensor device may be configured to detect the tracer material in the hydraulic fluid, and generate sensor data indicating that the tracer material has been detected. The controller may be configured to determine that the hose assembly is experiencing the failure based on the sensor data and cause an action to be performed based on determining that the hose assembly is experiencing the failure.

A valve (V, V1, V2) includes a housing (VG) and a piston (VK) displaceably guided therein. A first end (VK1) of the piston (VK) can be acted upon by a force, with the aid of which the piston (VK) is displaceable against a spring (F) acting upon a second end (VK2) of the piston (VK). The valve (V, V1, V2) has four switching conditions, in which four ports (A, B, P, T) in the housing (VG) are selectively connectable to one another or blocked with respect to one another. In a first switching condition, none of the ports (A, B, P, T) are connected to one another. The spring (F) is configured in such that, in the absence of an application of force onto the first end (VK1), the piston (VK) is held in a position, which corresponds to the first switching condition of the valve (V, V1, V2).

An inadvertent actuation block valve includes inlet and outlet orifices being in selective fluid communication via a chamber. A disc is disposed within the chamber and a bellows is configured to contract at a predetermined pressure differential between reactor fluid entering a reference pressure orifice and control fluid entering the inlet orifice. When the bellows contracts, the disc engages the outlet orifice and isolates fluid communication between the inlet and outlet orifices. The inadvertent actuation block valve prevents inadvertent opening of an emergency core cooling valve when a reactor is at operating pressure that is above the predetermined set pressure range. The inadvertent actuation block valve permits the emergency cooling valves to open and to remain open when reactor pressure is below the predetermined set pressure range. The inadvertent actuation block valve does not impede long term emergency cooling that occurs when the reactor is at low pressure.

A pneumatic control device of auto door includes a first directional control valve configured to control a direction of a compressed air supplied to a door cylinder for opening and closing a door, a door detection sensor configured to detect an open/close state of the door, first and second exhaust lines respectively connected to first and second outlet ports of the first directional control valve, and second directional control valves installed in the first and second exhaust lines respectively to operably exhaust the compressed air exhausted from the first and second outlet ports according to an emergency stop signal, and capable of changing positions to reduce an exhaust speed of the compressed air in case that the door is not completely open or closed when an operation signal is generated after the emergency stop signal.

A fluid container for a hydraulic unit comprises a container housing which has at least one connection part, which can be shut off by means of a shut-off device arranged in the fluid container. The container housing has at least one internal chamber and a channel for connecting the internal chamber to the hydraulic unit. The connection part and the shut-off device are combined in a separate module, which is connected to the container housing.
