In this invention it is disclosed a remote-controlled vehicle for operations in the extreme conditions (10) which comprises a base vehicle (100), a gripper (200), a manipulator arm (300), a mission module wherein base vehicle comprises front (110) and rear part (120), wherein on the front part of the base vehicle gripper is mounted and on the rear part of the base vehicle the manipulator arm is mounted and when in operation, the gripper and the manipulator arm are remotely operated. Also, it is disclosed whole system for remote operations comprising said remote-controlled vehicle and a control centre comprising a set of graphical user interfaces (GUI) and video displays (VD) arranged so that two way communication between the vehicle and control centre is established and wherein from GUI person can control and operate with the vehicle.

A automated multiple air sampler comprising a pump connected to a manifold, the manifold branching off to a plurality of conduits, each of the conduits connected to a corresponding cassette via a corresponding valve element, each cassette comprising an inlet exposed to the ambient air, an outlet fluidly connected to the conduit, and a filter element between the inlet and the outlet and a controller configured to open and close the valve elements independently from one another. The air sampler permitting sampling ambient air by receiving a indication that the ambient air is to be sampled, the controller operating one of the valve elements, including opening the valve element and closing the valve element, receiving another indication that the ambient air is to be sampled, the controller repeating the step of operating for another one of the valve elements, and tracking the operation of the valve elements.

A biological sample reaction vessel comprising a reagent storage portion and a push rod movable relative to the reagent storage portion is provided. The reagent storage portion comprises at least one reagent containing cavity, and the reagent containing cavity is sealed by a sealing element; and the push rod is connected to the sealing element, and the push rod is used for cooperation with an external device to separate the sealing element from the reagent storage portion. In reaction, the biological sample reaction vessel cooperates with a test cassette. By inserting the biological sample reaction vessel into the external device, the reagent in the reagent storage portion can be released rapidly.

A servo-electric actuated sampler can draw samples of fuel liquid from an operating main line. The sampler can run in a fast-loop process whereby liquid is drawn into the sampling system and past an actuated sampler and then out of the system back into main. The system main run a short loop whereby the main fast-flow is restricted, and the actuator and sampler are isolated from the main line flow. When isolated, the sampler discharges liquid into sampling cans. The servo-electric actuator requires a monitored amount of power to draw and discharge fluids. Monitoring of the power requirements of the servo-electric sampler can reveal the status and reliability of the system.

A gas collection device is installed in a toilet including a toilet seat and a toilet bowl. The gas collection device includes a flow path connected to a predetermined tank, and an introduction portion that introduces a sample gas into the flow path. The introduction portion is located between the toilet seat and the toilet bowl, or located inside or above the toilet seat. The introduction portion does not protrude toward an inside of the toilet bowl from a rim portion of the toilet bowl when located between the toilet seat and the rim portion. The introduction portion does not protrude toward the inside of the toilet bowl from the toilet seat when located inside or above the toilet seat.
