Abstract: A person-carried hydrogen sulfide instrument is adapted for use with a conventional SCADA system or other type of fault monitoring system normally intended for monitoring well-related conditions at a well site. In response to detecting an abnormally high concentration of hydrogen sulfide gas, the instrument triggers the fault monitoring system to record an H2S fault and convey that information to a remote computer. In some embodiments, the instrument includes a signal relay unit that listens to a conventional H2S monitor. The signal relay unit has a learning mode that teaches the unit to recognize an audible alarm from the H2S monitor. In response to hearing the H2S alarm, the signal relay unit emits a trigger signal to the fault monitoring system.

Abstract: A fluid pressure cylinder assembly (10) is provided with a sensor (36) for sensing the extension of a piston rod (16) from a tubular cylinder (12). The tubular cylinder (12) has a base block (14) that seals the end of the tubular cylinder (12) with an inner wall (41). The inner wall (41) has a threaded bore (43) for receiving a sensor housing (40), which has an elongated rod (38) passing into an axial bore (46) in the piston rod (16). The piston rod (16) carries a sensor element (47) that moves relative to the elongated sensor rod (38). The inner wall (41) is at an inner end of an access bore (58) in the base block (14). The sensor housing (40) is threaded into a bore (43) in the wall using a socket (70) that has a slot (72) to permit a sensor lead (34) to extend to the exterior of the socket (70) and out of the access bore (58) so the lead (34) rotates with the socket (70) in the access bore (58) while the sensor housing (40) is tightened in place.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un véhicule (20) doté d'un moteur diesel (22) et une ou plusieurs sources (30, 36) fournissant des données (CAN_TSC_OCM, CAN_TSC_OCM_SA11) pertinentes aux opérations du véhicule qui sont extérieures au moteur (22) mais qui influencent potentiellement le ravitaillement en carburant du moteur (22). Un système de commande de moteur (24) traite les données selon une stratégie de gestion toutes vitesses (52) destinée à réguler le ravitaillement (66) du moteur afin d'élaborer des données de ravitaillement à régulateur toutes vitesses (MFGOV) qui fixent le ravitaillement (66) du moteur lorsque l'entrée des données dans le système de commande du moteur (24) à partir d'une ou de plusieurs sources révèle qu'il n'y a pas lieu d'influencer ledit ravitaillement (66). Lorsque l'entrée des données de ces sources révèle une nécessité d'influencer le ravitaillement (66) du moteur, l'entrée des données en question impose la nécessité d'établir le ravitaillement (66) suivant une stratégie (54) autre que celle relative à la gestion toutes vitesses (52), notamment une stratégie (54) de commande couple-vitesse.
