Abstract: A system for detecting a leak in a duct is disclosed, including a sheath covering a duct section, a fluid concentrating device and a sensor. The sheath is attached to a boundary portion of the duct section and forms an inner space between an outer surface of the duct section and the sheath. The fluid concentrating device has an opening through the sheath connecting the inner space to an external space outside the sheath. The inner space is sealed except for the opening through the sheath. The sensor is stationed outside the opening of the fluid concentrating device and is configured to detect fluid flow from the inner space through the opening at a level corresponding to a duct leak in a pre-burst condition.

Abstract: A duct manifold including a first duct, a second duct, and a coupling. The first duct includes a first duct body, a duct extension, and a first duct flange. The duct extension extends from the first duct body. The first duct flange is coupled to the duct extension, and the duct extension extends beyond the first duct flange such that a flange support is defined on an end of the duct extension. The second duct including a second duct body and a second duct flange coupled to the second duct body. The coupling is configured to couple the first duct to the second duct, wherein the second duct flange rests on the flange support when the coupling couples the first duct to the second duct.
