Abstract: A modular sensor mote, comprising an electronic board having two connector portions with associated connectors, a wireless communication management portion, a power management portion and a sensor receiving portion adapted for receiving a sensor element.

Abstract: A filter cassette and a method for allowing a leak to be detected are disclosed, in which the filter cassette comprises a main body defining a first chamber. The main body includes an inlet and an outlet, a filter separating the first chamber into first and second sub-chambers, the inlet being in fluid communication with the first sub-chamber and the second sub-chamber being in fluid communication with the outlet. The main body also includes a second chamber is defined by the main body and the filter, wherein in absence of a leak the second chamber is substantially not in fluid communication with the first chamber. The main body further includes a port in fluid communication with the second chamber, whereby measuring a fluid characteristic in the second chamber by means of the port allows a detection of a leak, i.e. an external leak or a bypass leakage.

Abstract: An aerosol and vapor generation device comprises a container, a generation input for a contaminated product to be diluted in the device, a generation output, and a clean gas input. The device also includes a dilution tube in the container, with the generation input and with the clean gas input being in fluid communication with the dilution tube. The container defines a chamber, and a number of sampling ports are provided in the container such as to fluidly connect the chamber with outside units. The contaminated product and the clean gas are conveyed to the container such as to be mixed in the dilution tube and to displace therein in a first direction. The mixture then exits the dilution tube into the chamber and hits a wall of the container so as to be redirected in the chamber in a substantially counterflow direction with respect to the first direction. A sample of the mixture in the chamber can be drawn therefrom via the sampling ports.
