Abstract: A system and associated method for removing accumulated debris from a surface of a vessel. The system includes an impulse cleaning device defining a combustion chamber in which combustible fuel and air are mixed and ignited to produce combustion that is directed at the surface to be cleaned within the vessel, and an eductor assembly surrounding a downstream end of the chamber for inducting surrounding atmosphere into the combustion to widen the area being cleaned.

Abstract: An apparatus for cleaning a continuous emissions monitor system that is in fluid communication with a flue stack conducting exhaust gas from a combustion source. The apparatus comprises a housing and a probe mounted in the housing. The probe is tubular and in fluid communication with the flue stack to acquire a sample of gas from the flue stack. The probe tends to have deposits from the exhaust gas accumulate on the inner walls of the probe. A device imparts cleaning energy to the probe for dislodging accumulated deposits from the inner walls of the probe.

Abstract: Methods and systems for detecting filter rupture are provided. The system includes a light emitter positioned on a first lateral side of a fluid flow and configured to emit light at a predetermined intensity into the fluid flow downstream from a fluid filter, a light receiver positioned on a second lateral side of the fluid flow and configured to receive at least a portion of the emitted light, and a controller configured to receive a signal from said light receiver corresponding to the intensity of the emitted light or the pulsations in the light received, also known as scintillation, said controller configured to generate a corresponding output signal.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for storing, retrieving, and managing registry settings for a computer system having handheld platform operating software is describe. A storage device and/or a network connection to another storage device or computer system are used to “mirror” the applicable parts of the registry to the storage device or network computer system in order that the computer system-specific configuration settings can be retrieved each time the computer system is booted.
