A hose assembly includes a first conduit, a second conduit, a nozzle assembly, and a valve assembly. The first conduit defines a first fluid path through the hose assembly. The second conduit is received within and extends partially through the first conduit. The second conduit defines a second fluid path through the hose assembly. The nozzle assembly is coupled to a first end of the first conduit. The valve assembly is fluidly coupled to the first conduit and the second conduit. The valve assembly is fluid coupled to a second end of the first conduit opposite the first end. The valve assembly is adjustable between a first position and a second position. In the first position, the valve assembly provides water into the first conduit. In the second position, the valve assembly provides pressurized air into the second conduit.

A method cleans surfaces in an internal volume of an aircraft component through which a medium flows. The method includes: connecting the internal volume to be cleaned to a steam generator; generating a cleaning steam having a predetermined vapour pressure and temperature by the steam generator; applying the cleaning steam to the surfaces to be cleaned in the internal volume; maintaining the vapour pressure and the temperature within the internal volume for the duration of a predetermined condensation time; generating a pressure drop in the internal volume of the aircraft component, in order to vaporise the portion of the cleaning steam that condensed during the condensation time; and removing the cleaning steam from the internal volume via a discharge device.

A drain cleaner apparatus for dispensing a cleaning composition into a condensate drain line of an air handler of an air conditioning system. The drain cleaner apparatus includes an apparatus reservoir configured to hold the cleaning composition, a connector interface configured to couple with the condensate drain line to cause an apparatus outlet of the drain cleaner apparatus to be in fluid communication with an opening of the condensate drain line, a dispenser device that is configured to be actuated to selectively dispense an amount of the cleaning composition from the apparatus reservoir and through the apparatus outlet, and a controller configured to actuate the dispenser device to cause the amount of the cleaning composition to be dispensed through the apparatus outlet without manual intervention.

An on-line measurement system for aerosol precursors emitted from industrial sources has three parts: online measurement part, pipeline cleaning part and automatic control part. The system includes: a particulate filter, high temperature intake pipe, two detergent tanks, an air pump, a cooling water pump, two detergent pumps, a condenser, an impinger, a cooling water meter, a salinity meter, a liquid flow meter, a gas flow meter, nitrogen cylinders, connecting pipes, control valves, computer control program etc. The aerosol precursor concentration Cg emitted from industrial sources is measured in the online measurement section. After every measurement, the pipeline is cleaned by the pipeline cleaning part to remove organic and inorganic residual. The automatic control part is controlled by the computer through a controlling program to control the working process of the system. The system has small area occupation, low investment cost, simple maintenance, convenient transformation and high applicability.

A fluid regulator includes a poppet valve within a flow path that selectively allows a flow of fluid to move from an inlet to an outlet. A threaded regulating interface adjusts a spring tension exerted toward the poppet valve and defines a regulated flow of the fluid through the flow path. A fluid purge mechanism is positioned within the threaded regulating interface. The fluid purge mechanism operates along a rotational axis of the threaded regulating interface and adjusts a boundary of the flow path and manipulates the poppet valve to a maximum operating position to define a purging flow of the fluid. A programmable logic controller cooperates with the powered actuator and a pressure sensor to define a closed-loop interface that adjusts the regulated flow of the fluid through the flow path.

A semiconductor processing system includes a chamber arrangement, an exhaust arrangement connected to the chamber arrangement, an accretion sensor supported within the exhaust arrangement, and a processor. The processor is disposed in communication with the accretion sensor and is responsive to instructions recorded on a non-transitory machine-readable medium to receive an accretion signal from the accretion sensor, the accretion signal indicative of an accretion amount disposed within the exhaust arrangement, receive a predetermined accretion amount value, and compare the accretion amount to the predetermined accretion amount value. The instructions further cause the processor to execute an accretion countermeasure when the received accretion amount is greater than the predetermined accretion amount value. Methods of controlling accretion within exhaust arrangements for semiconductor processing systems and foreline assemblies for semiconductor processing systems are also described.

An example automatic cooking range cleaning system may include a nozzle coupled to a conduit and arranged to spray a first zone of a cooking range exhaust system, a pump configured to provide a cleaning solution to a supply line, and a control box connected to the pump via a supply line. The control box may include a controller and an electronically-controlled valve configured to selectively couple the supply line to the conduit. The controller may be configured to, in response to receipt of a start signal to initiate a cleaning operation, cause the cleaning solution comprising a mixture of detergent and water having a ratio based on a target mixing ratio to be provided to the supply line, and cause the electronically-controlled valve to open to facilitate provision of the cleaning solution to the nozzle via the conduit for a predetermined period of time.

A cleaning method of a heat sterilization system includes: a step of causing a fluid formed of a cleaning liquid or a rinse liquid to flow through the heat sterilization system; a step of supplying hot water to a second-stage heating unit to heat the second-stage heating unit; and a step of measuring fluid temperatures of the fluid at the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet of the second-stage heating unit, and medium temperatures of the hot water at a medium inlet of the second-stage heating unit and a medium outlet of the second-stage heating unit. An overall heat transfer coefficient (U value) of a heating pipe of the second-stage heating unit is calculated based on the fluid temperatures at the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet of the second-stage heating unit and the medium temperatures at the medium inlet and the medium outlet of the second-stage heating unit.

A cleaning system and process for cleaning a medical system comprising at least one air source at least one cleaning solution source at least one rinsing solution source and at least one switch for switching between the at least one air source, the at least one cleaning solution source, and said at least one rinsing solution source. The process is configured to selectively provide the cleaning solution from the cleaning solution source, selectively provide the rinsing solution source, and selectively providing the air pressure to purge the lines of a medical/dental system.

A water pipe cleaning system using high-pressure nitrogen and a water pipe cleaning method using the same are provided. The water pipe cleaning system using high-pressure nitrogen includes: nitrogen pressure vessels containing high-pressure nitrogen therein; a main control unit gathering the high-pressure nitrogen from the nitrogen pressure vessels and controlling pressure of the high-pressure nitrogen; a feed piping device connected to an outlet of the main control unit and connected to an inlet of a pipe to be washed; and a discharge piping device connected to an outlet of the pipe and connected to a nitrogen discharging portion to discharge nitrogen discharged from the pipe to the outside.
