  • Patent number: 9429490
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides improved process measurement assemblies and methods for replacing/installing devices/instruments (e.g., gauges, digital gauges, transducers, switches, etc.) associated with process measurement assemblies. More particularly, the present disclosure provides improved process measurement assemblies (e.g., diaphragm seal assemblies or isolation ring assemblies) having couplings (e.g., dry-break couplings) that allow a user to replace and/or install process measurement instruments/devices to and/or from the process measurement assemblies, and related methods of use. In general, the present disclosure provides for improved systems/methods for installing or replacing a process measurement instrument to and/or from process measurement assemblies (e.g., diaphragm seal assemblies or isolation ring assemblies).
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7437936
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides for systems and methods for fabricating measuring devices, e.g., a pressure gauge, thermometer or the like. More particularly, the present disclosure provides for systems and methods for fabricating a window for use with a measuring device assembly. In one embodiment, the present disclosure provides for improved systems and methods for fabricating measuring device assemblies having a window where the window does not substantially move or shift during or after assembly, thereby reducing or eliminating the risk that the window may leak or crack during or after assembly.
