Insert sleeve prevents tube soldering contamination

Teflon sleeve insert prevents contamination of internal tube surfaces by solder compound during soldering operations that connect and seal the tube ends. The sleeve insert is pressed into the mating tube ends with a slight interference fit.

Irradiated gases transferred without contamination or dilution

Vacuum chamber apparatus opens sealed canisters of irradiated gases and transfers the contents without contaminating the surrounding area, and without diluting or polluting the contained gases. The apparatus consists of the chamber, a valved piping manifold, and a special drill and sealed drilling access.

Quartz crystals detect gas contaminants during vacuum chamber evacuation

Piezoelectric quartz crystals detect condensable gas contaminants backstreaming into a vacuum chamber when a pump is evacuating the chamber. One crystal acts as a thermometer, the other detects mass change. They are energized by electronic equipment which records frequency changes.

Analytical technique characterizes all trace contaminants in water

Properly programmed combination of advanced chemical and physical analytical techniques characterize critically all trace contaminants in both the potable and waste water from the Apollo Command Module. This methodology can also be applied to the investigation of the source of water pollution.

Tool samples subsurface soil free of surface contaminants

Sampling device obtains pure subsurface soil that is free of any foreign substance that may exist on the surface. It is introduced through a contaminated surface area in a closed condition, opened, and a subsurface sample collected, sealed while in the subsurface position, and then withdrawn.
