A shade canopy configured for use on all model Personal Watercrafts (PWC) is described. A Bimini Top provides shade from the sun to occupants of the PWC. The bimini top provides the ability to board and unboard from the sides of the PWC. This apparatus also folds and stores on the rear of the PWC and is contained in a zippered boot with straps. The bimini top supports a permanent or non-permanent mounting system to the hull to avoid hull modification. Two variants, a folding or telescoping support structure are available which facilitate accessories such as racks and coolers that attach to the rear of the PWC. Straps positioned around the PWC tension to the apparatus, ensuring the Bimini Top remains taut, and that the Bimini Top does not angle fore, aft, left or right. The straps are affixed to the PWC using existing mooring points on the PWC or via an add-on kit.

An outage protection system for a SCR (selective catalytic reduction) reactor utilizes a pair of dampers to isolate the catalyst bed and the ammonia injection grid of the SCR reactor and to provide a blower driven closed loop flow of externally heated air from the injector grid across the catalyst bed to an external heater and back to the injection grid.

A coupling assembly for connecting two members that includes an annular locking ring. The assembly further includes a first member and a second member. The first member has an exterior surface having a groove for receiving the locking means. The second member has an inner surface having a cavity for receiving the locking means. The first and second members are secured together when the locking ring is engaged in the groove and the cavity.

A pressure sensor probe has a first port connectable to a relatively low pressure source in a compressor crankcase and a second port connectable to a relatively high pressure source at the output of an oil pump. A shuttle is slidably disposed in a bore and has a first end which closes the first port when the difference in pressure between the two ports indicative of normal operation exceeds a selected value determined by the relative areas of the shuttle exposed to the respective pressures and by a coil spring which biases the shuttle away from the first port. A passage is formed between the shuttle and the bore leading from the second port to a force receiving surface on the high pressure side of the shuttle. The length and cross sectional area of the passage is selected to provide a desired dampening or time delay between the high pressure source and the force receiving surface. Indicator means responsive to the position of the shuttle is used to indicate the status of the oil differential between the two ports and, if desired, to control the actuation of the compressor motor.
