Abstract: The disclosure describes embodiments of an airborne molecular contamination (AMC) monitoring apparatus. The AMC apparatus includes a manifold having a plurality of inlets and one or more outlets. A sampling tube bus fluidly is coupled to the manifold, the sampling tube bus comprising a plurality of individual sampling tubes, each individual sampling tube being fluidly coupled to one of the plurality of inlets. One or more analyzers are each fluidly coupled to one of the one or more outlets of the manifold to analyze fluid drawn into the manifold through one or more of the plurality of individual sampling tubes. A control and communication system coupled to the one or more analyzers. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: An underwater crane is provided with a float ball including arc member on a bottom, and a ring attached to the arc member; and a plurality of weights each including a rope having a hook member at an open end, the hook member being secured to the arc member. In a salvaging operation, a diver may temporarily secure the ring to a structure sunk to, for example the sea floor, the diver may disengage the hook members from the arc member, and finally, the weights are rested on the sea floor and the float ball and the structure together move upward until the float ball reaches the surface of the sea due to buoyancy of the float ball.
