Abstract: An apparatus includes a carriage, camera, spray tool, and controller. The carriage is movably coupled to a track. The camera and spray tool are coupled to the carriage. The controller moves the carriage along the track away from a starting position based on a first signal from the camera, and as the carriage moves away from the starting position, discharges, through the spray tool, a solution for a first time. The controller moves the carriage towards the starting position after the solution has been discharged for the first time, and based on a second signal from the camera as the carriage moves towards the starting position and before the carriage reaches the starting position, moves the carriage away from the starting position. As the carriage moves away from the starting position, the controller discharges, through the spray tool, the solution for a second time.

Abstract: A heat exchanger assembly is provided for a marine propulsion system having a closed loop cooling system. The heat exchanger body encloses a series of tubes carrying sea water which removes heat from the engine coolant. The heat exchanger includes an integrally connected top tank. A single venting orifice is provided into the top tank from the heat exchanger body. A heat exchanger coolant outlet is in direct fluid communication with both a system bypass and the coolant in the top tank. An auxiliary inlet for coolant from the top tank is located in the heat exchanger coolant outlet downstream of the bypass inlet, thereby promoting the ability of the system to draw coolant through the top tank rather than the bypass. The invention minimizes cavitation and reduces the creation of negative pressure at the circulating pump.
