Abstract:
A clamping apparatus for coupling an ultrasonic transducer to a conduit is disclosed. The clamping apparatus comprises a base portion fastened to the conduit and including a bracket for receiving an adapter. The adapter is attached to a housing and allows the housing to be rotated when the adapter is positioned in an upper portion of the bracket, and prevents the housing from being rotated when the adapter is positioned in a lower portion of the bracket. The housing is configured to enclose the ultrasonic transducer except for a housing opening along the bottom of the housing. The ultrasonic transducer extends through the housing opening and is spring biased against the conduit.
Abstract:
The present application provides a rotary testing apparatus for use with a work piece. The rotary testing apparatus may include a rotor, a probe, and a lifting unit for maneuvering the probe about the work piece. The lifting unit may include a hydraulic lifting mechanism and a counterweight mechanism.
Abstract:
A cable bushing assembly and a method of sealing a cable penetration through a housing are provided. The bushing assembly includes an interior shell, a central cavity and at least one aperture between a first face and a second face. At least one cable passes through the bushing assembly. The bushing assembly also includes an exterior shell at least partially circumscribing the interior shell. A clasp is located between the interior shell and the exterior shell to prevent separation of the exterior shell from the interior shell. Packing material seals the at least one cable within the interior shell. A method of sealing a cable penetration includes providing a housing with an opening, inserting a bushing assembly into the opening, and securing the cable bushing.
