  2. Sentricon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sentricon

    Sentricon bait stations are installed in the soil, creating a protective perimeter around a property. These stations are baited with a cellulose material impregnated with noviflumuron, [6] a chitin synthesis inhibitor. When foraging, worker termites find the stations, eat the bait material, and then regurgitate it for colony nest mates to consume.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_bleeding_valve

    Brass-bodied float valve. An automatic bleeding valve or air release valve (ARV) is a plumbing valve used to automatically release trapped air from a heating system. Air, or other gas, may collect within plumbing. For water delivery systems to taps and basins, particularly with good main supply pressure, this air is usually flushed through with ...

  5. Flow control valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_control_valve

    Pneumatically-actuated globe valves and diaphragm valves are widely used for control purposes in many industries, although quarter-turn types such as (modified) ball and butterfly valves are also used. Control valves can also work with hydraulic actuators (also known as hydraulic pilots). These types of valves are also known as automatic ...

  6. Isolation valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isolation_valve

    An isolation valve is a valve in a fluid handling system that stops the flow of process media to a given location, usually for maintenance or safety purposes. [1] They can also be used to provide flow logic (selecting one flow path versus another), and to connect external equipment to a system. [ 2 ]

    POL valve on a 45 kg LPG cylinder Male fitting to match POL valve A POL valve (originally for Prest-O-Lite) is a gas connection fitting used on liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) cylinders. The oldest standard for such connections, it was developed by the Prest-O-Lite company, hence the name. [ 1 ]

  8. Stopcock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stopcock

    Example of symbol for a stop valve. A stopcock is a form of valve used to control the flow of a liquid or gas. The term is not precise and is applied to many different types of valve. The only consistent attribute is that the valve is designed to completely stop the flow when closed fully.

  9. Boiler blowdown - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_blowdown

    A pipe near the bottom of the blowoff tank maintains a water level below the blowdown entry point and allows cooler water remaining from earlier blowdown events to drain from the tank first. Two bottom blowdown valves are often used in series to minimize erosion. One valve serves as the sealing valve, and the other as the blowdown valve.
