A system transports a device into a piece of industrial equipment for the purpose of collecting data inside of the industrial equipment. In an embodiment, the industrial equipment is a furnace and the device is an IR camera. The system opens a door covering an opening on the furnace, moves the IR camera inside of the furnace for a short time, the IR camera captures images, and the system removes the camera from the furnace and closes the door.

A fluid-powered auxiliary starting system for electric motors is disclosed which includes an accumulator means for supplying an amount of fluid at high pressure to a fluid-operated motor and a clutch of similar device for connecting the output shaft of the fluid-operated motor to transfer rotational torque to the shaft of the prime mover motor to be started. The system may be either hydraulic or pneumatic and may be used to bring one or more electric motors substantially up to spaced before electric power is applied to the motors themselves. The same motor or a hydraulic or pneumatic pump may be used to recharge the accumulator between uses for electric motor starting.

An improved low-cost solar air heater is disclosed which utilizes an array of holes or jets in an intermediate solar window to produce impingement of the air on the upper or solar energy absorbing surface of the absorber plate to enhance heat transfer efficiency and reduce convection losses from the system.
