An industrial process transmitter includes a main housing, a sensor body, and a flange member. The main housing contains transmitter circuitry and includes a first threaded portion. The sensor body includes a process sensor and a second threaded portion in threaded engagement with the first threaded portion. One of the first and second threaded portions includes a threaded cylindrical projection, and the other includes a threaded cylindrical bore. The flange member is received within a groove of the projection. Movement of the sensor body relative to the housing along an axis of the bore is restricted to an axial distance through engagement between the flange and the first or second threaded portion that includes the threaded cylindrical bore, and engagement between the main housing and the sensor body. Rotation of the sensor body relative to the housing about the axis is limited by the axial distance.

A pressure measurement device in a tube (30) of a hydraulic circuit is disclosed, comprising a metal collar (2) provided with n (≧3) contact stops (22, 24, 26) made of an electrically insulating material, designed to come into contact with the wall of said tube, preventing the metal of the collar coming into contact with this wall, one of the contact stops (22) comprising a passage (22′) that will connect the atmosphere inside said tube with pressure measurement means.

A method for manufacturing a measuring tube, which serves for conveying a measured substance, which measuring tube comprises a pipeline having a lumen, into which lumen an immersion body protrudes. The immersion body is connected with a formed piece, and the formed piece is connected with the pipeline in such a manner that a vacancy in the wall of the pipeline is essentially measured substance tightly, for example, gas tightly and/or liquid tightly, sealed by the formed piece.

The invention relates to a fuel dispensing unit comprising a fuel conduit comprising an external annular bead, and a locking member comprising inwardly extending resilient tongues and the being arranged to retain the fuel conduit in a locked position and receive the fuel conduit in an open position, wherein the external annular bead of the fuel conduit is arranged to put the locking member in the open position when receiving.

A fluid connection apparatus, in which a carrier body and washer configuration are overmolded together, is configured for use in a fluid transfer assembly. The carrier body may be generally U-shaped, having two substantially parallel portions connected by a bridging portion. Each substantially parallel portion of the fluid connection apparatus includes a washer configuration including one or more washers. The fluid connection apparatus may be used to connect a fluid line fitting to an apparatus intended to provide or receive fluid through the fluid line, using a connector having a fluid passage formed therein. The fluid line fitting is placed between the two substantially parallel portions, and a connector having a fluid passage formed therein is inserted through one side of the fluid connection apparatus, through the fluid line fitting, and through the other side of the fluid connection apparatus. The fluid connection apparatus may include stabilizing features, such as ribs in the bridging portion or enlarged radii, to protect against distortion and breakage.

A single piece structural connector is provided that includes a single machined aluminum piece having first and second circular ends including a plurality of bolt holes and a center hole. The connector also includes an alignment dowel positioned on the center hole. The alignment dowel is configured to tightly fit into a center hole of a pipe plate.

Provided is an apparatus for removing thermal stratification generated by turbulent penetration by using a rotation ring. The apparatus removes thermal stratification formed in a branch pipe branching from a main pipe through which a high-temperature fluid flows, the apparatus including: a hollow body portion coupled to the branch pipe; a plurality of first electromagnets provided to be spaced apart from each other in a circumferential direction of the body portion; a controller configured to sequentially change polarities of the plurality of first electromagnets; and a rotation ring including a plurality of second electromagnets having either an N polarity or an S polarity, the rotation ring being rotatably coupled to the body portion, wherein, when the polarities of the plurality of first electromagnets are sequentially changed, the rotation ring rotates according to a magnetic force of the plurality of first electromagnets and the plurality of second electromagnets.

A sensor housing (1) including a longitudinal axis (2), a clamping area (3) surrounding the longitudinal axis (2) and a recess (4) in the clamping area (3) is described, the recess (4) running in circumferential direction. In such a sensor housing a recess in the clamping area (3) should be provided with low production costs. To this end the recess (4) is formed between a part 6 of the housing (1) and a locking element (5) fixed to the housing (1).

A guided wave radar level gauge adapted for mounting on a nozzle of a tank, including an attachment collar with an opening configured to be aligned with the nozzle and to be secured by means of an annular clamping device, and a transmission line probe attached to an exterior end of a probe connector. The GWR level gauge further comprises an annular sealing gasket fitted in the collar opening, the annular sealing gasket having a central opening through which the central probe connector extends, and a distancing sleeve arranged around the exterior end of the probe connector and having a radially protruding collar portion, wherein processing circuitry is configured to detect an impedance change caused by tank content or condensate which has passed through the central opening of the sealing gasket and collected in an annular space immediately surrounding the radially protruding collar portion.

Apparatuses, systems, and methods are provided for generating power. A pipe having an input flow is coupleable to an input section configured to receive at least a portion of the input flow. A generation section is coupleable to the input section and includes a pipe section to carry the at least a portion of the input flow, a turbine coupleable to the pipe section and configured to capture energy from the at least a portion of input flow carried by the pipe section, and a generator coupleable to the turbine and configured to generate power from the energy captured by the turbine. An output section may be open ended and configured to provide a discharge for the generation section away from the pipe.
