Underwater video cameras are electronic devices used underwater to capture and record the marine environment. They function similar to standard video cameras and camcorders; only, they are designed with several special features that allow operation underwater such as depth focus, audible moisture alarm, optics and rear plate, and amphibious microphone.

Underwater video cameras are useful equipment for underwater exploration, checking out of diving sites, search and rescue operations, fish finding, boat hull inspection, and underwater security purposes. Moreover, this type of video camera can be part of your drain cleaning equipment when inspecting drainage pipe and tanks.

Types of Underwater Video Cameras

Handheld underwater video cameras—These are designed to be operated using the hands of the user. They generally feature a sleek and lightweight design that resembles a camcorder. Most models feature an advanced grip control system that allows fingertip access to various controls for easy recording, focusing, and lighting. Other features include two speed zoom, ND filter, shutter speed, white balance, and audio level. Most models make use of waterproof lens that allow zoom up to 10 times closer. Advanced models come with LED indicator, optics and rear plate, audible moisture alarm, and amphibious microphone.

Towable underwater video cameras – These are small cameras designed to be towed by a vessel while recording underwater events. They may use of colored or black and white tiny CCD camera chips, transmitting video image using a thin coaxial cable to a screen. Most models feature a surface console and a battery that allows operation without power supply. They are best used to check out diving spots, inspect other colleagues working in the water, and simply explore the water without actually going down there. Other more serious applications include observations of marine fauna and flora for scientific purpose, ship hull investigations, and rescue operations. They are generally small and lightweight, requiring very little maintenance.

Remote operated vehicles (ROV) – These are underwater video cameras powered by motors to allow operation from any vessel even under strong currents. They are generally light and reliable. They are usually designed with halogen spotlights that provide excellent illumination during image recording even at night or dark depths.               Most models feature a high resolution color that offer excellent video quality. Some models are constructed to allow perfect maneuverability, providing close-up shots of the marine environment.

Underwater video cameras are an essential part of drain cleaning equipment.

Who does not love to have money? It would be a pleasure to wake up in the morning and not think of how to get your hands on enough money for the future. Here are some simple solutions on how you can save up and spend wisely as suggested by a financial planner Houston company.

1.       The first step is to change how you look at money.  Do not think of it as an inanimate object.  Your money generates.  Each dollar generates money even if it merely sits in the bank. It has been suggested that each dollar is actually an employee who works for you and the goal is that each employee will recruit more employees to work for you. Your goal is to buy enough assets which can generate money without you doling out labor.

2.       Do not look down upon small amounts and investments. Even if you start small, but save up consistently, you will be surprised at the amount you have by the end of the 2 years or so.

3.       The way to save up money is to cut down on frills and excesses. Do not think of short term pleasures but long term gains. For example, if you are still paying for a car or are planning to buy your own place, create a system where you do not have to spend much. If you have to meet your friends, suggest dessert or coffee, instead of a full course meal. This way, you do not have to spend as much.

4.       Buying stock is a good investment. Also invest in things which appreciate in value such as land and jewelry. Research on businesses which will generate more funds. The food business is lucrative, if you know which food people prefer. Do not jump in, because somebody merely suggested that there can be no losses in certain businesses. Always be armed with facts and statistics. Once you have invested, give your money time to mature to gauge the success of such investment.

5.       Do not be conned into getting credit cards. They are not status symbols but are a circuitous way of divesting you of money. As much as possible, pay for the things you want to purchase in cash to avoid having debts.

A lifestyle change can help you save money for the future.

Ticks are mites that are brown in color. They are also members of the arachnid family, whose other members are the scorpions and the spiders. Ticks attach themselves to the skin of their prey to be able to suck blood. There are various species of ticks and they can be located everywhere in the world. The most talked about kinds though are the deer ticks and the dog ticks.

Various Types of Ticks

According to Houston pest control, there are various types of ticks. The deer ticks measure as small as the head of a pin and is common in many areas in the United States. These ticks can unfortunately carry diseases like that of the Lyme disease. The dog ticks are very common, and can measure up to half an inch in length. Like the deer ticks, the dog ticks can also carry diseases, in particular the Rocky Mountain Spotted fever.

Dealing with a Tick Bite

What would a tick bite look like? A tick bite would usually be unperceived; you would most likely feel nothing when bitten. What you will notice though is the little redness around the site of the bite. If you’re bitten by a tick make sure to tell someone you think will know something about it, because ticks can carry diseases that they can pass on to human beings.

After playing or hiking in the woods, have someone check you for ticks, focus particularly in your scalp, neck, armpits, back and groin area. If a tick is discovered on you have it removed immediately. In removing ticks you can use tweezers. In taking out the tick, however, be sure to remove it one motion. Don’t cover it with petroleum jelly, nail polish, or rubbing alcohol it will not make it come out. If in pulling it out some parts of it are left behind, remove them by using sterile needle or pin. Once removed, put it in a container and bring it with you to the doctor.

How to avoid tick bites? You have to remember that ticks are very fond fo the shrubbery, because they want to be close to the ground to be able to jump on people or animals as they pass, hence you might want to avoid these places. Should it be impossible for you to do so, be sure to wear long sleeves and long pants and have the ends of your pants tucked safely in your socks. It would also be advisable to apply insect repellent containing ten to 30 percent DEET on your skin.

Kitchen remodeling is a good opportunity to re-evaluate the furnishings and appliances you have and should have in your kitchen. While you most likely already have the common kitchen appliances,such as the refrigerator, oven, stove, and dish washer, there are unusual appliances which are just as essential during kitchen activities.

When you are remodeling your kitchen, you may want to consider adding these appliances to your kitchen essentials.

Deep Fryer

Deep fryers, also known as deep fat fryers and flash fryers, are kitchen appliances designed to completely and deeply fry food under heated or boiling cooking oils. Food cooked using these devices are also called deep fat fried food. They are designed both for home and commercial use, where home models are usually more compact and feature smaller oil chambers than commercial units.

Convection Oven

Convection ovens are kitchen appliances that make use of heated air in processing a wide variety of food products for baking, drying, preserving, curing, and other types of cooking. They offer consistent and even distribution of heat throughout the device. Other advantages brought by convection ovens include providing mass and heat transfer, offering accurate temperature control, uniform heating for products of any size and shape, and contactless heating.

Espresso Machine

Espresso machines are kitchen appliances designed to produce espresso, a traditional Italian coffee beverage. They are designed to brew coffee by removing the oils and blending them in the ground coffee, creating a creamy and syrupy espresso. Typically, it takes 20 seconds to one minute in preparing and producing a perfect shot of espresso.

Dehumidifier

Dehumidifiers are devices designed to lower the moisture content of air, thus reducing the humidity in a certain place. They work by cooling the air until it cannot hold any moisture anymore to generate air than is not as humid and as dry as it was before the dehumidification process.

These are just some of the uncommon but useful appliances you may want to include in your kitchen.

Crest Media Internet Marketing Inc. steals content!

This content is stolen by Crest Media Inc. for Quest Tec Solutions.

Water column instruments are devices designed to provide accurate pressure readings and help water level indicating operations run smoothly. The three primary components of water level indication systems include a water column, control unit, and remote display.

Choosing Probes for Your Water Column

Probe is an essential part of the water column. Here are some helpful tips that you should keep in mind when choosing probes for your water column.

1.       Electrical probe safety systems operate a larger number of functions than mechanical float safety. Probes may be positioned to actuate audible and/or visual alarms, fuel cut-out controls, pump controls, or other equipment. Thus, choose probes over mechanical floats.

2.       Exceptional probe sensitivity increases system reliability. Choose probes that feature high sensitivity and perform at the forefront of probe technology. In particular, make sure that ach probe model will respond to pure water of ultra-low conductivity (less than 1 micro mho) to complete circuits. In addition, choose probes with service life that is extended by using available renewing kits.

3.       Choose probes with an alarm system that provides an on/off actuation of high and low water alarms. Other features which you can look for include fuel cut-out trip, pump control, and PCB control unit.

Choosing Float Systems for Your Water Column

1.       Choose a reliable float that warns of high/low water levels in cast iron columns serving 0 to 250 PSI or forges steel columns serving pressures up to 900 PSI.

2.       Choose a mechanical float type alarm system that employs lightweight floats and responds to as little as one-quarter inch level variations. Alarm components sit high in the column, removed from corrosive agents and scale. Quality materials and design simplicity combine to minimize requirements for periodic adjustment and maintenance.

To know more information about water column, probes, and float systems, consult with the experts at Quest Tec Solutions, manufacturers of high-quality liquid level indicators and gauges.

Common Failures of Magnetic Sight Glasses

Crest Media Internet Marketing Inc. steals content!

This content is stolen by Crest Media Inc. for Quest Tec Solutions.

Improper installation of magnetic sight glass can lead to device failure. This includes over tightening and uneven torqueing which can produce bending loads on the glass which can potentially result to cracking. Another cause of failure is trapped debris that causes a bending moment, such as from gaskets that become baked onto the flanges and portions are left behind when removed.

Some low-quality devices may not have flat and parallel surfaces which is often a product of poor or low tolerance manufacturing. This also may result in a bending load on the glass.

It is not uncommon for a sight glass to be used as a handy place to rest a wrench or other tool. This may scratch the glass, creating a source for breaks to originate, also known as stress concentrations. Even though a bending load is required to open these cracks, they significantly reduce the pressure capabilities of the glass.

Thermal shock is a sudden, drastic change in temperature that causes one side of the glass to expand or contract differently from the other side. This can occur when a cold sight glass experiences a sudden increase in temperature at process startup, or when a hot sight glass is suddenly cooled during an external wash down of equipment.

Of course, over-pressurization can cause a sight flow indicator to fail. A properly specified unit should have an ample safety margin.

Lastly, degradation of the glass over time can lead to failure. Chemicals, and even water, will corrode glass. There are several chemical resistance charts that illustrate the loss of weight of glass when exposed to various chemicals. Another source of degradation is the continuous friction from an abrasive product against the glass.

A magnetic sight glass is an important device that provides a clear view during liquid level indicating. However, when not used properly and maintained well, it can lead to minor and major failures.
