    Abstract: A sensor for detecting the presence of a liquid. The sensor includes a housi ng having a concave upper surface, a concave lower surface, and a peripheral wall connecting the upper surface and the lower surface, the wall extending above the upper surface an d below the lower surface. A plurality of apertures are formed in the wall. A plurality of electrically conductive members extend above the upper surface and below the lower surface and are separated from one another by a gap in which a liquid can accumulate. The electrically conducti ve members are configured to generate an output signal when a conductive liquid comes into contact with the electrically conductive members and bridges the gap. An output connector is coupled to the plurality of electrically conductive members and is configured to carry the output signal.

    Abstract: A tank with an angled indicator assembly is disclosed. A flexible membrane may be connected to an inner wall of a shell of the tank and separates a tank cavity into a first chamber sealed to contain a pressurized gas and a second chamber sealed to contain a pressurized fluid. The tank may include an indicator assembly that includes a coupling connected to an exterior of the shell. A sight cap with a transparent viewing window can operably connect to coupling. The coupling and the sight cap define an internal viewing pocket in fluid communication with the first chamber of the tank cavity. The coupling may connect to the shell at an angle defined by the angle of a longitudinal axis of the coupling relative to a longitudinal axis of the tank.

    Abstract: Provided is a portable cylinder including a tank having a mounting collar coupled to an upper portion of the tank, and a handle assembly attached to the mounting collar. The mounting collar has an upwardly extending portion and a plurality of circumferentially spaced tabs extending radially outwardly from the upwardly extending portion, wherein a respective gap is formed between adjacent ones of the plurality of circumferentially spaced tabs. The handle assembly includes a handle having a shroud portion and a handle portion extending from the shroud portion, and an attachment member configured to be coupled to the shroud portion to prevent rotational movement of the handle relative to the collar, the attachment member having a body, a first projection projecting from a front wall of the body for engaging the shroud portion, and a second projection projecting from a back wall of the body for engaging the shroud portion.

    Abstract: A commercial hybrid tank includes a metal liner with an upper wall and a lower wall. The upper wall and the lower wall define a cavity therebetween. A weld joint joins the upper and lower walls together. A fiber winding layer is wrapped around an outer surface of the metal liner. A method for manufacturing a commercial hybrid tank includes overlapping surfaces of an upper wall and a lower wall to form a metal liner defining a cavity. The method includes joining the surface of the upper wall and the surface of the lower wall together by welding to form a weld joint between the upper wall and the lower wall. The method includes wrapping the metal liner with a fiber winding layer around an outer surface of the metal liner to form a hybrid tank.
