Abstract: A flow analyzer includes a flow body having a single-piece construction. The flow body includes a flow path extending through the flow body along a flow direction between opposing inlet and outlet ports and an enclosed wiring conduit extending substantially transverse to the flow direction between a first side of the flow body and a second side of the flow body. The enclosed wiring conduit is isolated from the flow path. An illumination unit is disposed on the first side of the flow body and configured to illuminate fluid within the flow path. An observation unit is disposed on the second side of the flow body and configured to visually observe the fluid within the flow path.

Abstract: A shellfish cracking utensil has a handle portion and a head portion, with the head portion comprising (a) a base region having a lower part and an upper part, with the lower part being connected to one end of the handle portion, and (b) first and second tines connected to, and extending outwardly from, the upper part of the base region. The tines are preferably of substantially equal length, extending in substantially parallel relationship and defining a gap between them for inserting a shell portion of a shellfish. The two tines are substantially prong-shaped with the second tine wider than the first tine. The second tine has a bump portion on an edge thereof facing the first tine, preferably near the end of the second tine.

Abstract: An illumination module comprises a ring-shaped mounting member having an axially extending viewing passage and an L-shaped radiation guide including a radiation entry end for communication with an external radiation source and a radiation exit end provided with a fused glass window for insertion within a process vessel or pipeline. The radiation guide extends through a radial guide hole in the mounting member and bends to run axially along the passage of the mounting member in close proximity to the wall of the passage so as to minimize blockage of available viewing area through the passage. The illumination module can be clamped between a sight glass or camera viewing unit and the flange of a nozzle port, or between segments of a pipeline near a viewing window of the pipeline, to form an illumination and viewing assembly.
