2. Pressure switch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_switch

   Industrial pressure switches may have a calibrated scale and pointer to show the set point of the switch. A pressure switch will have a hysteresis, that is, a differential range around its setpoint, known as the switch's deadband, inside which small changes of pressure do not influence the state of the contacts. Some types allow adjustment of ...

3. Aircraft engine controls - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_engine_controls

   Fuel pressure gauge - Indicates the supply pressure of fuel to the carburetor (or in the case of a fuel-injected engine, to the fuel controller.) Fuel boost pump switch - Controls the operation of the auxiliary electric fuel pump to provide fuel to the engine before it starts or in case of failure of the engine-powered fuel pump.

4. Pressure regulator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_regulator

   Air compressors are used in industrial, commercial, and home workshop environments to perform an assortment of jobs including blowing things clean; running air powered tools; and inflating things like tires, balls, etc. Regulators are often used to adjust the pressure coming out of an air receiver (tank) to match what is needed for the task.

5. Testing, adjusting, balancing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Testing,_adjusting,_balancing

   Adjusting is the final setting of balancing devices such as dampers and valves, adjusting fan speeds and pump impeller sizes, in addition to automatic control devices such as thermostats and pressure controllers to achieve maximum specified system performance and efficiency during normal operation.

6. Valve actuator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_actuator

   Air (or other gas) pressure is the power source for pneumatic valve actuators. [1] They are used on linear or quarter-turn valves. Air pressure acts on a piston or bellows diaphragm creating linear force on a valve stem. Alternatively, a quarter-turn vane-type actuator produces torque to provide rotary motion to operate a quarter-turn valve.

7. Pitot–static system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitot–static_system

   (As long as the drain hole is also blocked, as the air pressure would otherwise leak out to the atmosphere.) This is caused by the pressure in the pitot system remaining constant when the atmospheric pressure (and static pressure) are decreasing. Conversely, the airspeed indicator will show a decrease in airspeed when the aircraft descends.
