Joint seal system and method
A joint seal system and method may include a seal and a band. The seal may be positioned between abutting flanges of two adjacent duct sections. A band may be positioned over the two flanges and the flange interface. The joint seal system and method may be configured to mitigate and/or eliminate leakage of pressure, flue gases, condensate, and/or any other fluid, gas, and/or vapor between abutting flanges of duct sections at a flange interface.

SANITARY CLAMP FOR DIAPHRAGM PUMP COVERS
A clamp for sanitary pumps includes a tensioning assembly mounted on a ring. The tensioning assembly includes an adjustment assembly that interfaces with first and second brackets disposed at first and second ends of the ring. The adjustment assembly includes a nut that interfaces with a rod at a threaded interface. A head is disposed at an end of the rod opposite the nut and interfaces with the second bracket. The nut and rod are coaxial and an orientation of a common adjustment axis can be changed by pivoting the adjustment assembly relative to the first bracket, to maintain concentricity between the nut and rod.

Aseptic connectors with integrated wireless connectivity
The present disclosure relates to aseptic connectors with integrated wireless connectivity. For example, an example system may include a removable clamp configured to secure a first portion of an aseptic connector to a second portion of the aseptic connector. The removable clamp may include a housing, a controller disposed within the housing, a rechargeable battery disposed within the housing, a wireless radio disposed within the housing, and a sensor plug receptacle configured to receive a sensor plug coupled to a sensor of the aseptic connector. The controller may be configured to determine a sensor output of the sensor and to transmit the output using the wireless radio.
UNIVERSAL VACUUM FITTING CLAMP WITH TORQUE CONTROL
A sealing system for establishing real time sealing between two flange members is provided. The sealing system includes a seal assembly disposed between the flange members. The seal assembly includes an o-ring seal component held between an outer seal component and an inner seal component. A clamp body including a first clamp arm and a second clamp arm receive the flange members and the seal assembly positioned between the flange members. A coupling device of the sealing system is used to apply torque to clamp arms to draw them each other resulting biasing the flange member toward each other to establish sealing. Each of the clamp arms includes at least one window opening to expose a portion of outer seal component that includes an indicator configured for displaying an identification feature of the o-ring seal component of the sealing assembly.

Radio-frequency identification fluid connection
A radio-frequency identification (RFID) fluid connection, including a tube or hose, the tube or hose including a radially outward facing surface, a RFID assembly or label connected the radially outward facing surface, including a RFID tag, and at least one contact electrically connected to the RFID tag.

Clamp and gasket system
A clamp and gasket system secures adjoining ends of sanitary tubing together. The clamp and gasket system may include a holding member. The holding member holds the gasket to the clamp to prevent or reduce loss of or damage to the gasket. The gasket may be formed from stainless steel and seal against concave surfaces in the ends of the adjoining sanitary tubes.
