A multi-seal sealing assembly with sensors includes a housing, a first sensor and a second sensor. The housing can receive multiple seals and can mount to a surface of a tool. The multiple seals are configured to seal against fluid flow between the surface of the tool and the housing. Multiple sensors corresponding to the multiple seals are mounted to the housing adjacent respective seals and between the housing and the surface of the tool. The sensors sense a flow parameter at different levels responsive to an absence or a presence of fluid flow past the seals.

A sealing device is provided for use with a fitting. The fitting has circular port and a flow path with a longitudinal axis. A circular port encircles a portion of the flow path opposite the port with the sealing device inserted into the port. The sealing device has a circular top with two opposing surfaces depending therefrom but inclined so the surfaces are closer at the top. A continuous sidewall joins the periphery of the two surfaces. The opposing surfaces are inclined and spaced apart further at the top than at an end opposite the top. A cylindrical hole through the opposing surfaces encircles the flow path during use.

It is an object of the present invention to enhance reliability of an allowable limit conductance used for setting a threshold value for evaluating sealability of a test object, and further, enhance reliability of the sealability evaluation. By leak testing a test object 9A with a sealing defect 9g, a leakage characteristic that shows a relationship between an internal-external pressure difference and a leak flow rate is obtained. A conductance of a test object with a similar artificial leak 9B having a similar artificial leak device 29 disposed therein, conducting the leak-detected substance is measured. The similar artificial leak device 29 has a leakage characteristic similar to the obtained leakage characteristic. An allowable limit conductance is obtained based on results of the measurement. Sealability of a test object 9 is evaluated based on a threshold value set with a standard artificial leak device 9S having the allowable limit conductance.

A method and system for detecting small leaks in a plumbing system is disclosed. A temperature sensor coupled to the water in the plumbing system is used to determine if there is a leak. During times of inactivity for fixtures in the plumbing systems, a flow sensor might measure usage of water that would indicate a leak. For very small leaks, the flow is below a minimum measurable flow of the flow sensor. Embodiments of the invention measure temperature of water within a pipe coupled to the plumbing system. Temperature will generally decay in a particular predicable way when there is flow as the temperature of water upon entry to the building is lower than the air temperature within the building. Signal processing, machine learning and/or statistical approaches are used to analyze the temperature and optionally flow and/or pressure over time to determine when a leak is likely.

A system for detecting a connector failure associated with an agricultural apparatus is disclosed. The system comprises a first supply source that is configured to supply a quantity of air at a first pressure into the hydraulic fluid line arranged on the agricultural apparatus. A second supply source is configured to supply a quantity hydraulic fluid to the hydraulic fluid line at a second pressure that is less than the first pressure. A protection device is coupled to the hydraulic fluid line and is configured to inhibit flow of the hydraulic fluid supplied by the second supply source when a pressure differential across an inlet of the protection device exceeds a predetermined threshold.

The invention concerns the field of container closure integrity (CCI) and the testing of CCI and relates to a device and a method for providing a displacement of a rubber stopper for leakage testing of a connection between the rubber stopper and a corresponding drug container which can be used for storing drugs under sterile conditions and which is closed by said rubber stopper.

The present disclosure relates to a sensor system for monitoring the sealing of the connection between a sensor holder and a sensor that is mounted on the sensor holder. The sensor system includes a sensor holder, a sensor that is mounted on the sensor holder, and a leakage detector with a channel, which is arranged in the sensor holder and consists of one or more straight sections that are mounted perpendicular or parallel to the longitudinal axis of the sensor.

A system for detecting leaks comprises at least one pipeline element, a leak detection device, and a pre-formed, heat-shrinkable sleeve comprising at least one inlet aperture. A method of manufacturing the sleeve comprises the steps of applying a cross-linkable material around a standard-sized sleeve mold, cross-linking the material, removing the cross-linked material from the mold, heating and stretching the cross-linked material around a stretching sleeve mold, allowing the material to cool, and removing the cooled sleeve from the mold. A method of monitoring a leak comprises the steps of receiving the pipeline element in the sleeve and applying heat to the sleeve, whereby the sleeve shrinks and conforms substantially around the profile of the pipeline element and at least a portion of the leak detection device.

A high pressure tank device includes a high pressure tank configured to supply/discharge a fluid through a supply/discharge channel, a first storage part, a leakage detection sensor provided in the first storage part for detecting leakage of the fluid, and a second storage part. The high pressure tank includes a resin liner, a reinforcement layer which covers an outer surface of the liner, and a cap having a supply/discharge hole. The first storage part can store a first fluid. The first fluid is at least one of the fluid that leaked from the supply/discharge channel and the fluid that leaked through the inside of the supply/discharge hole. The second storage part is provided independently from the first storage part, and can store a second fluid. The second fluid is the fluid that leaked from the outside of the supply/discharge hole.

An arrangement for fluid-tight connecting of lines including a first and second connection element. The connection elements are aligned with each other and connected by a fastening mechanism. The arrangement includes an intermediate element between the connection elements and a holding element and a second sealing element. A first sealing element is arranged in the holding element between the sealing surfaces of the connection elements. The holding element has a hollow wall with a first and second edge. The second sealing element is connected to the holding element on the second edge. The intermediate element includes an indentation extending from a first end to a second end formed near the first sealing element. The first end has a conical shape, wherein oppositely arranged side walls of the indentation rest on one another on the outer side of the sealing element.
