Abstract: Embodiments generally relate to modular access covers. Example embodiments relate to an access cover assembly comprising: a first set of modular access covers and a second set of modular access covers, wherein in each set, adjacent covers are coupled; and a support frame comprising end frame pieces, side frame pieces, wall boxes, and a support beam. The end frame pieces and side frame pieces define a support plane to support the first and second sets of modular access covers. The wall boxes define a support surface to support the support beam and the end frame pieces, and the support surface is offset from the support plane and the wall boxes are connected to the end frame pieces and receive respective ends of the support beam.

Abstract: An improved ball valve (1), in particular for gas systems, comprises a tampering indicating seal (25) made by injection molding a synthetic or metal material into cavities (19; 21; 22) formed in the screw-clamping nut assembly (11, 13) and including a cap outer portion (29) which substantially covers the surface of the outer face of the nut (13) and/or extending (29A) on the side surface or said nut (13).
