When dealing with hazardous media, it may cause relatively large losses, and the risk coefficient for leakage in the above - mentioned working conditions is relatively large.

Technologies, methods, and devices known to those of ordinary skill in the relevant art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, the said technologies, methods, and devices should be regarded as part of the authorization specification. In all the examples shown and discussed herein, any specific value should be construed as merely exemplary and not as a limitation.
