A sealed system and a method of assembling the sealed system include installing an expansion device such as an electronic expansion valve (EEV) between an indoor heat exchanger and an outdoor heat exchanger. Before or after the expansion device is installed, a predetermined stop position of an adjustable valve is determined, e.g., based on the sealed system capacity. A removable motor assembly moves the adjustable valve to the predetermined stop position and the adjustable valve is permanently fixed within the expansion device, e.g., by removing the motor assembly and/or melting a locking member positioned within the expansion device.

A method for maintenance of a printing system includes maintaining an inert gas environment in a printing system enclosure housing the printing system, and placing an auxiliary enclosure in flow communication with the printing system enclosure through a sealable opening. While the auxiliary enclosure and the printing system enclosure are in flow communication, the method further includes moving a part between the printing system enclosure and the auxiliary enclosure using a handler positioned proximate the sealable opening, the part being related to maintenance of the printing system. During the moving, the auxiliary enclosure is maintained to have an inert gas environment.

The present teachings disclose various embodiments of a gas enclosure system can have a gas enclosure that can include a printing system enclosure and an auxiliary enclosure. In various embodiments of a gas enclosure system of the present teachings, a printing system enclosure can be isolated from an auxiliary enclosure. Various systems and methods of the present teachings can provide for the ongoing management of a printing system by utilizing various embodiments of isolatable enclosures. For example, various measurement and maintenance process steps for the management of a printhead assembly can be performed in an auxiliary enclosure, which can be isolated from a printing system enclosure of a gas enclosure system, thereby preventing or minimizing interruption of a printing process.

A rotor lock assembly for locking a rotor of a wind turbine. The rotor lock assembly has at least one relocatable rotor lock. The relocatable rotor lock has a housing, a bushing element, a pin shaft position within the bushing element, and a locking mechanism. The housing includes a mounting portion adapted for mounting to a bearing housing adjacent to a rotor lock plate of the rotor.

An exhaust-side journal bearing for supporting a gas turbine rotor is disposed inside a bearing box. The bearing box is supported by a strut which extends inward from an exhaust casing, and a seal ring having an annular inner peripheral end is disposed on the bearing box. Executed during a maintenance work are: a bearing adjustment step of displacing a bearing surface of the journal bearing relative to the bearing box in a perpendicular direction perpendicular to the axial direction; and a seal ring adjustment step of displacing the inner peripheral end of the seal ring relative to the bearing box in accordance with the direction of displacement and the amount of displacement of the bearing surface.

A method releases rotor poles of a large electrical machine from the rotor hub, which in the fitted state is located within the stator. In one method step, at least one device is introduced into the air gap between the sector and a rotor pole to be released. The device has a carrier plate and at least one cushion that can be filled with gas and is attached to the carrier plate. In a following method step, the cushions belonging to the device are filled with gas under pressure, the pressure being successively increased until the pole to be released has come away, and in that, in a following method step, the at least one device is removed from the air gap. In a further step, the released pole is pulled out of the rotor hub.

A gas flow can be provided together with a liquid jet guided laser beam to remove accumulated liquid on the processing surface. The gas flow can be configured to have minimum interference with the liquid jet guided laser beam, while functions to blow away liquid generated by the liquid jet. Keeping the surface free from accumulated liquid can improve the efficiency of the liquid jet guided laser processing.

A one-piece board level shielding element with a top cover peel panel is secured to a circuit board to shield and provide access to a shielded component. The shielding element is formed with a top having a peel line to facilitate removal of the peel panel with a peel tool. Once the repair is completed, a new cover is put on to the remaining side-walls to reestablish the shielding. The shield top cover is formed with a peel tool insertion slot and an adjacent peel start slot. The peel panel is removed by a peel tool having a peel hook mounted to a cylindrical peel key that is inserted into the insertion slot and hooks the cover at the peel start slot. Upon rotating the peel key away from the peel start slot, the peel panel is easily removed. A fixture plate may be used to support the peel tool and assist in removal of the peel panel.
