Appl. No.:

17/702622

Inventors:

- Atlanta GA, US
Timothy J. Mitchell - Hixson TN, US

International Classification:

G01L 19/14
G01L 19/00

Abstract:

The outer housing for a pressure monitoring system includes a sidewall shell comprising an annular inner sidewall projection extending from a top end thereof; a cap mounted to the sidewall shell, the cap defining an inner cap surface, an outer cap surface, a cap bottom end, and an annular cap recess extending into the cap bottom end between the outer cap surface and the inner cap surface, wherein the annular inner sidewall projection is configured to engage the annular cap recess; and an antenna assembly directly mounted to the inner cap surface, the antenna assembly comprising an antenna.

International Classification:

G01L 19/14
G01L 19/00

Abstract:

Example aspects of an outer housing for a pressure monitoring system and a pressure monitoring system for a wet barrel hydrant are disclosed. The outer housing for a pressure monitoring system can comprise a sidewall shell defining an axis extending centrally therethrough and comprising an annular inner sidewall projection extending from a top end thereof; and a cap mounted to the sidewall shell, the cap defining an annular cap recess, wherein the annular inner sidewall projection is configured to engage the annular cap recess.

International Classification:

G05D 7/06
F16K 31/40

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and computer-readable storage media for controlling and monitoring an electro-mechanical flushing mechanism in a pressurized water distribution system. A first pressure reading of water in a supply channel is taken, the supply channel being in fluid communication with a distribution line of the water distribution system and terminated by a flushing valve. The flushing valve is then actuated causing the valve to change state. A second pressure reading is taken of the water in the supply channel and a difference between the first and second pressure readings is computed. The computed difference is compared to a minimum pressure differential value, and, upon determining that the difference is not greater than the minimum pressure differential value, a central control system of the water distribution system is alerted that a valve failure has occurred.

International Classification:

F16L 37/18
F16L 21/00
F16L 21/02
F16L 37/10

Abstract:

A wide range coupling includes a body, the body defining a first body end and a second body end, a body bore defined extending through the body from the first body end to the second body end, the body bore defining an axis; a gasket positioned within the body bore; a sleeve positioned at least partially within the body bore proximate to the first body end; and a sleeve actuator attached to the body, the sleeve actuator mechanically engaging the sleeve, the sleeve actuator configured to axially translate the sleeve relative to the axis of the body bore about and between a disengaged position and an engaged position.
