The system disclosed herein is directed to a plunger adapted for use with a protective sleeve for shielding contaminants from the plunger. In one example, a plunger has a handle having a first end and a second end. A flexible cup is coupled to the first end of the handle. The flexible cup has an interior surface and an exterior surface. An inlet is disposed on the exterior surface of the flexible cup. A through-hole is located in the flexible cup offset from the inlet. A connector is coupled to the inlet between the flexible cup and the handle. The connector is configured to join the first end of the handle to the flexible cup.

Sanitary plunger

The system disclosed herein is directed to a plunger having a protective sleeve for shielding contaminants from the plunger. The plunger includes a handle, and a flexible cup. The body further includes a tab, a shoulder region, a central portion, a first tail, and a second tail. An inlet is disposed on the external surface of the flexible cup. The inlet is coupled to a connector. A through-hole is disposed in the flexible cup or the handle. The through-hole is configured to receive the body of the protective sleeve by passing a portion of the body through an opening of the flexible cup.

A filter module configured for exhaust application, and a method and apparatus for testing the same are provided. In one embodiment, the filter module includes a downstream sampling port configured to allow a technician to sample flow, downstream of the filter module, from the cleanroom side of a filter module. In another embodiment, a shroud adapted to sealing engage a filter module under test is provided and includes a tube, disposed in the shroud, that couples a port to a downstream sampling port of the filter module.

Exhaust filter module, and a method and apparatus for efficiency testing the same

Embodiments of the invention generally provide a containment system having integrated bubble tight-dampers. In another embodiment, the containment system includes an integral auto-scan mechanism disposed in the housing of the containment system so that a filter element, disposed in the housing, may be leak tested without accessing the interior of the housing. In yet another embodiment, a method for testing a filter disposed in a containment system includes challenging an upstream side of a filter element disposed in a housing of the containment system with a test aerosol, and automatically moving a probe disposed within the housing to obtain samples for leak testing.

Integrated containment system

Embodiments of the invention generally provide an apparatus and method for certifying a filter in a containment system without decontaminating the containment system prior to certification. The apparatus generally comprises a valve assembly selectable between at least three operational states. A first state prevents flow from prevents flow through a port of a housing. A second state fluidly couples the port to test equipment necessary to test a filter disposed within the housing. A third state seals the port but fluidly couples the test equipment to a decontamination system.

Method and apparatus for in-situ testing of filtration systems

Embodiments of the invention generally related to a method and apparatus for scanning a v-bank filter. In one embodiment, an apparatus for scanning a v-bank filter includes a hollow body having first and second ends. An outlet, formed at the second end of the body, is adapted for coupling a testing device to an interior volume of the body. A plurality of holes are formed through the body and are fluidly coupled to the interior volume. In another embodiment, a method for scanning a v-bank filter includes inserting a probe having a plurality of sample ports into a filter adjacent a filter pack, and traversing the probe along the filter pack. In yet another embodiment, a method for scanning a v-bank filter includes scanning a slot of a v-bank filter with a probe, and collecting samples of gas passing through the filter an into the probe.

Method and apparatus for v-bank filter bed scanning

A filter system having in-situ scan capabilities is provided. In one embodiment of the invention, the system includes a downstream probe which may be rotated to scan the field of a filter installed in the system. The probe may be utilized for leak detection, velocity measurements, efficiency testing and the like. In one embodiment, one or more probes are rotated downstream of the filter to scan the downstream face of the filter.

Axial flow scan testable filter system

Embodiments of the invention generally related to a method and apparatus for scanning a v-bank filter. In one embodiment, a method for testing a v-bank filter includes providing an aerosol challenge to an upstream side of a v-bank filter, scanning a downstream side of the v-bank filter with a probe having one or more rectangular sample ports, and providing samples taken through the probe during scanning to a test instrument. In yet another embodiment, a probe for scanning a v-bank filter is provided that includes a body having a plurality of rectangular sample ports. Each sample port is tapered to a port configured to connect to a sample tube. The long sides of the rectangular sample ports are arranged in a stacked parallel orientation.
