    摘要: Assemblies for protecting valve actuators from water intrusion and methods of making and using the same are described. The assembly comprises a valve, a valve actuator, and a cover. The valve comprises a body and a stem. The stem is movable between a first valve position permitting passage of fluid through a flow passage in the body and a second valve position occluding passage of fluid through the flow passage. The valve actuator comprises an adapter coupled to the stem movable between a first actuator position placing the stem in the first valve position and a second actuator position placing the stem in the second valve position. The cover is disposed over the valve actuator and comprises an upper surface and a sidewall defining an inner cavity. The cover has an open bottom so as to permit air to circulate into the inner cavity and around the valve actuator.

    摘要: A system and method for managing pipeline operations, information, and equipment is provided. The system generally comprises a processor, pipeline equipment operably connected to the processor, power supply, and non-transitory computer-readable medium coupled to the processor and having instructions stored thereon. The system may also comprise a computing device having a user interface that may allow a user to view/alter data of the system. The system may advise users whether they are qualified to work on a piece of pipeline equipment and generate scores that rate the chance that pipeline equipment may pass inspection.

    摘要: A method of inspecting switching time with fluid control valve used for inspecting operating time to turn-on or turn-off a valve door of a fluid control valve is disclosed. The method comprises following steps: firstly provide an inspector with a counting unit, a timer, a first limited switch and a second limited switch. The counting unit electrically connects to the timer and a pneumatic module of fluid control valve, the first limited switch and second limited switch connect to the timer, and the first limited switch contacts the rod of the fluid control valve rod. Then, input basic data of corresponding fluid control valve, which comprises operating conditions of the fluid control valve. Next, activate the pneumatic module and start to time, and the axial shift generated by the rod of the fluid control valve triggers the second limited switch to stop timing. Lastly, record and display operating time.

    摘要: A positioner includes: a displacement amount detector that outputs a pair of detection signals; a multi-layered board that propagates a pair of detection signals; a circuit board on which an electronic circuit generating a control signal for controlling a valve opening of the regulating valve, on the basis of the pair of detection signals is formed; and a housing that accommodates at least the multi-layered board and the circuit board. The multi-layered board includes a first interconnection layer having a first interconnection pattern formed therein, and a second interconnection layer that has a pair of signal interconnections formed therein and is disposed on the first interconnection layer through an interlayer insulation film. The first interconnection pattern is electrically connected to the housing and is formed so as to overlap the pair of signal interconnections formed in the second interconnection layer.

    摘要: An indicator dilution system includes a catheter configured to deliver an indicator to a patient, an injection device configured to deliver the indicator to the catheter, and a connector coupling the injection device to the catheter. The system also includes one or more sensors configured to acquire measurements from components of the system, which may be used to determine the start and end time of the injection of the indicator to the patient. For example, the one or more sensors may be configured to acquire signals relating to a state of the connector, which may be used to determine whether the connector is in an open state to enable flow of the indicator or in a closed state to reduce flow of the indicator.
