A welding torch having a nozzle assembly with multiple attachment methods is disclosed. The nozzle assembly includes a nozzle shell, an electrically insulating sleeve, and a nozzle insert. The nozzle insert is configured for attachment to gas diffuser assemblies with different attachment mechanisms (e.g. a slip-on mechanism relying on frictional force, and/or screw-on mechanism relying on torque).

The invention provides an exhaust purification device capable of suppressing the temporal decrease in NOx catalyst removal efficiency due to soot accumulation. The invention provides an exhaust purification device using an air injection nozzle to inject pressurized air into a casing of a catalyst reactor containing an NOx catalyst as a catalyst and removing soot adhering to the NOx catalyst, wherein it is determined and externally notified that there is abnormal deterioration in the NOx catalyst when the pressure difference P in exhaust between the upstream and downstream sides of the NOx catalyst has increased by at least a first reference pressure difference increase Pt1, which is the allowable amount of pressure difference increase, above the pressure difference Pi in exhaust between the upstream and downstream sides of the catalyst in the initial state at the same exhaust flow rate Ve.

A heating torch (10) for burning a mixture of fuel and air. The heating torch (10) includes a fuel inlet port (12) for supplying fuel from a fuel source to an air entrainment chamber (14). The air entrainment chamber (14) includes at least one air inlet (22) for supplying air from the atmosphere to the air entrainment chamber (14). The air entrainment chamber 14 includes an outlet (26) for discharging from the air entrainment chamber (14) a mixture of fuel and air in a flow path extending from the outlet (26). The heating torch (10) also includes a combustion chamber (28) provided in the flow path A and spaced from the outlet (26). The combustion chamber (28) has an open end (30) facing in a generally downstream direction away from the outlet (26). The combustion chamber (28) includes at least one side opening (36) extending along a side of the combustion chamber (28).

A flame holder system includes a modified torch body and a ceramic flame holder. Catch pin(s) are coupled to and extend radially out from the torch body. The ceramic flame holder has groove(s) formed in its inner wall that correspond in number and positioning to the catch pin(s). Each groove starts at one end of the flame holder and is can be shaped to define at least two 90 elbows. Each groove is sized to receive one catch pin therein when the flame holder is fitted over the end of the torch body. The flame holder is then manipulated until the catch pin(s) butt up against the end of the groove(s).
