A multiple layer composite material having fluid breach detection features provides indication of a failure in a fluid barrier. The indication of breach of fluid is provided before failure of a final layer of the composite material. The multiple layer composite material includes more than one fluid impermeable layer with an intermediate layer sealed between the fluid impermeable layers. Failure of one of the fluid impermeable layers is detected by fluid contact in the intermediate layer. The intermediate layer includes a reagent and/or detection device to indicate that the fluid has reached the intermediate layer.

A vacuum pipe connecting member for detecting in real time a gas leak from a pipe connection between vacuum pipes is provided. In one aspect, the vacuum pipe connecting member is provided to include: a clamp for connecting a vacuum pipe to another vacuum pipe or to a semiconductor manufacturing apparatus; and a reactant that is provided in the clamp and is chemically reactive to a gas leaking from the pipe connection.
摘要:
A hydrocarbon leak detection sensor having a hydrocarbon indicator paint applied to a surface exposed to a flow in which the presence of a hydrocarbon is detected. The sensor is located at a low point in a static drain line that is connected to a main fuel line of a liquid propellant rocket engine between a main fuel valve and a fuel injector of a combustion chamber. The sensor includes a housing with a flow inlet port and a flow outlet port with an optical device opposed to a removable plug that secures a target disk with a hydrocarbon indicator paint applied to an exposed surface. A light source is used to illuminate the hydrocarbon indicator that changes color from white to red in the presence of a hydrocarbon.
摘要:
A water leak detection and prevention device comprised of a leak detection apparatus positioned near a water-dependent appliance to monitor for moisture due to a leak, and a leak prevention system connected to the leak detection apparatus in fluid communication with a water pipe attached to the water-dependent appliance and positioned in-line with the water pipe is disclosed.
摘要:
Disclosed is an expansion tank having an internal cavity separated by a flexible diaphragm to form an upper pressurized gas portion and a lower pressurized fluid portion, and an indicator positioned at an upper part of the expansion tank in communication with the contents of the upper pressurized gas portion. The indicator is configured so as to display a first color if the operating conditions are normal in the pressurized gas portion, and a second color if the amount of moisture detected in the pressurized gas portion greater than or equal to a predetermined amount. Further disclosed is a method for detecting whether there is an excessive amount of moisture in a pressurized gas portion of an expansion tank by allowing pressurized gas from the pressurized gas portion to come into contact with the indicator, and viewing the color displayed by the indicator. As such, the tank can be simply visually inspected to determine whether there is a potential failure in the tank.
摘要:
The invention relates to the use of an indicator for testing the tightness of water conducting components in a housing which is either mixed into the water or released upon contacting water drops or generated from a generative material upon contact with water. According to the invention, the presence of the indicator in gaseous or vaporous form is detected by a sensor.
摘要:
Methods provide an alert to the release of mercury. A sealed container containing an odor-producing agent is provided proximate to a sealed breakable enclosure containing mercury, the container and/or the breakable enclosure physically separating the agent from the mercury. In response to a breaking of the breakable enclosure, the agent produces an odor as a function of the breaking, the odor providing an alert to a release of the mercury. Service methods are also provided, for example wherein a service provider provides the sealed breakable enclosure containing mercury and deploys the odor-producing agent. Articles of manufacture, systems, articles and programmable devices are also provided.
摘要:
An improved device for the detection of leakage is achieved when the device includes at least two components, of which at least one is capable of migrating with the liquid within the carrier, and forming a distinct color or other detectable signal with the first component. Such device is not sensitive to normal, ambient humidity and the color signal formed is resistant to being diluted or rinsed away in cases of abundant or repeated leakage.
摘要:
A leak detection device is provided with an elongated handle having a head member disposed at one end. The device has a low profile for easy insertion beneath an appliance. The head member is configured to be easily oriented around wheels or other supports while positioning a testing arm below the water line connection. The device is adaptable for use with appliances having different configurations of wheels and can easily be reused. The function of the device lends itself to simple and inexpensive manufacture.
