Disclosed embodiments include a suction pile vent plug having a cylindrically-shaped body having a sealing element, a plurality of coupling features, and a handle connected to the cylindrically-shaped body. The sealing element is configured to form a watertight seal with walls of a suction pile vent into which the vent plug is installed. The plurality of coupling features are configured to engage with corresponding coupling features of the suction pile vent. The movable handle is configured to be moved into one or more locked configurations. Disclosed embodiments further include a suction pile vent having a hollow cylindrically-shaped body having coupling features. The coupling features are configured to engage with corresponding coupling features of a suction pile vent plug to thereby mechanically couple the suction pile vent plug to the suction pile vent. Disclosed embodiments further include a fluidic port that fluidically couples a suction pile to a removable fluidic coupling.

A plug having a longitudinal axis includes a plug body having a generally flat sealing surface on an axial end thereof, and a protuberance extending from the axial end generally concentric with the longitudinal axis. The protuberance has a first section contiguous with the plug body, and a second section having a hub portion contiguous with the first section and a plurality of generally evenly spaced arms extending outward from the hub portion. An underside surface of each arm faces the sealing surface of the plug body and has a generally flat portion and a ramped nub thereon projecting toward the sealing surface. The plug may be inserted into a compatible socket having tabs and rotated about the longitudinal axis for sealable engagement with the socket.

A heat exchange plug that plugs the aperture of a tubesheet with a leaking tube while also securing the tube against movement that could damage other tubes of the tubesheet. A cylindrical housing member with two different diameter body section can be inserted so that the wider diameter section is positioned in the aperture of the tubesheet and the smaller diameter section is located in the tube. An eccentric ring at the end of the housing member can engage the tube and prevent rotation as an insert member is advanced into the rear of the housing member via a threaded shank of the insert member that engages a threaded inner bore of the housing member. A ramped surface of the housing member deforms the wall of the larger diameter section of the housing member outwardly to plug the aperture while the smaller diameter section secures the tube in place.

A cap (20) for a header box of a heat exchanger (1), in particular for a motor vehicle, in particular a radiator, is disclosed. This cap includes a head (21), a shank (22) comprising at least one mounting thread (23), this shank being between the head and a free end of the cap, a retaining lug (30), in particular elastically deformable, arranged to retain the cap in an opening (10) of the header box in an intermediate position of the cap, in which position the cap leaves a clear passage while being retained in the opening, this retaining lug being formed on the shank.

A plug having a longitudinal axis includes a plug body having a generally flat sealing surface on an axial end thereof, and a protuberance extending from the axial end generally concentric with the longitudinal axis. The protuberance has a first section contiguous with the plug body, and a second section having a hub portion contiguous with the first section and a plurality of generally evenly spaced arms extending outward from the hub portion. An underside surface of each arm faces the sealing surface of the plug body and has a generally flat portion and a ramped nub thereon projecting toward the sealing surface. The plug may be inserted into a compatible socket having tabs and rotated about the longitudinal axis for sealable engagement with the socket.

A closure apparatus is provided for closing a pipe. The closure apparatus includes a support element, at least one sealing contact face and a closure apparatus centre axis. At least one operating apparatus with at least one adjusting element, which can be moved from a first position to a second position relative to the support element, is also provided. The closure apparatus is in a sealing position in the second position of the adjusting element.

A pressure tight plug for sealing a coupler of a dry disconnect valve includes a housing, a main flow valve, and at least one urging member being rotatable with respect to the housing of the coupler. The pressure tight plug includes a body, a locking ring, a pressure relief lock valve, and a pressure relief channel. The body includes an internal region for sealing adjacent the main flow valve of the coupler member, and a flanged perimeter for securing the plug to the coupler. The locking ring is receivable on, and rotatable with respect to, the body for engaging with the at least one urging member of the coupler. The pressure relief lock valve is fixed with respect to the body. The pressure relief channel extends from the internal region of the body to atmosphere, via said pressure relief lock valve. The pressure relief lock valve is arranged such that in a valve closed position the pressure relief lock valve is engaged with the locking ring, therein restricting movement of the locking ring and therein fixing the plug to the coupler.
