Abstract: A vessel such as a dairy pasteuriser having a path B for product and a separate path A for coolant in intimate relationship is tested for leaks by circulating a donor fluid under pressure in path A whilst a recipient fluid such as clean tap water is circulated in path B. If the donor fluid is an electrolyte, a probe 12 is placed in path B to measure the conductivity of the recipient fluid. A rise in conductivity over a period indicates leakage between the two paths, the rate of change indicating the size of the leak. Alternatively, the donor fluid can be a gas, and leakage detected using an untrasound probe.

Abstract: A vessel such as a dairy pasteuriser having a path B for product and a separate path A for coolant in intimate relationship is tested for leaks by circulating a donor fluid under pressure in path A whilst a recipient fluid such as clean tap water is circulated in path B. The donor fluid is a gas, and leakage is detected using an ultrasound probe.

Abstract: A die construction includes a body having first and second, opposite end caps and an extension member therebetween. The extension member has a first number of discrete facets and no more than the first number. Each of the discrete facets is identically shaped and have equal surface areas. The first end cap has a second number of discrete facets and no more than the second number. The second number is one-half of the first number. Each of the first end cap discrete facets is identically shaped and has an equal surface area to one another. The second end cap has the second number of discrete facets, that is, the same number as the first end cap, and has no more than the second number. Each of the second end cap discrete facets is identically shaped as the first end cap discrete facets. Each of the second end cap discrete facets has a surface area equal to a surface area of each of the first end cap discrete facets.

Abstract: A vessel such as a dairy pasteuriser having a path B for product and a separate path A for coolant in intimate relationship is tested for leaks by circulating a donor fluid under pressure in path A whilst a recipient fluid such as clean tap water is circulated in path B. If the donor fluid is an electrolyte, a probe (12) is placed in path B to measure the conductivity of the recipient fluid. A rise in conductivity over a period indicates leakage between the two paths, the rate of change indicating the size of the leak. Alternatively, the donor fluid can be a gas, and leakage detected using an untrasound probe.

Abstract: A pet animal toy has a body covered by a removable coat of long fur which can be cut and "groomed" to give a stylized appearance, then removed and replaced with another fur coat for cutting to give a different appearance. The coat covers substantially all the trunk of the body and the legs and appears to be fur grown on the animal. It may be secured by a concealed attachment under the body.
