  2. Flashback arrestor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flashback_arrestor

    Flashback arrestors with different size and flow rate, and different connections. A flashback arrestor or flash arrestor is a gas safety device most commonly used in oxy-fuel welding and cutting to stop the flame or reverse flow of gas back up into the equipment or supply line. It protects the user and equipment from damage or explosions.

    A relief valve DN25 on cooling water pipe from heat exchanger Schematic diagram of a conventional spring-loaded pressure relief valve. A relief valve or pressure relief valve (PRV) is a type of safety valve used to control or limit the pressure in a system; excessive pressure might otherwise build up and create a process upset, instrument or equipment failure, explosion, or fire.

  4. Rupture disc - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rupture_disc

    A rupture disc (burst) Pressure-effect acting at a rupture disc A rupture disc, also known as a pressure safety disc, burst disc, bursting disc, or burst diaphragm, is a non-reclosing pressure relief safety device that, in most uses, protects a pressure vessel, equipment or system from overpressurization or potentially damaging vacuum conditions.

    An oxygen safety relief valve DN250-safety valves. A safety valve is a valve that acts as a fail-safe.An example of safety valve is a pressure relief valve (PRV), which automatically releases a substance from a boiler, pressure vessel, or other system, when the pressure or temperature exceeds preset limits.

    An outline of key instrumentation is shown on Process Flow Diagrams (PFD) which indicate the principal equipment and the flow of fluids in the plant. Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams (P&ID) provide details of all the equipment (vessels, pumps, etc), piping and instrumentation on the plant in a symbolic and diagrammatic form.

  7. Thorpe tube flowmeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thorpe_Tube_Flowmeter

    The non-compensated type is more accurate for low flow rates, such as are used in neonatal units, laboratory experiments, or anaesthetic machines. Compensated flowmeters work with a variable orifice and fixed pressure. They read back pressure, and take into account resistance changes downstream from the needle valve.

  8. Backflow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backflow

    Backflow is a term in plumbing for an unwanted flow of water in the reverse direction. [1] It can be a serious health risk for the contamination of potable water supplies with foul water . In the most obvious case, a toilet flush cistern and its water supply must be isolated from the toilet bowl.

  9. Tesla valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesla_valve

    The flow resistance is defined, analogously to Ohm's law for electrical resistance, [2] as the ratio of applied pressure drop and resulting flow rate: R = Δ p Q {\displaystyle R={\frac {\Delta p}{Q}}} where Δ p {\displaystyle \Delta p} is the applied pressure difference between two ends of the conduit, and Q {\displaystyle Q} the flow rate.
