  2. Cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylinder

    If the elements of the cylinder are perpendicular to the planes containing the bases, the cylinder is a right cylinder, otherwise it is called an oblique cylinder. If the bases are disks (regions whose boundary is a circle) the cylinder is called a circular cylinder. In some elementary treatments, a cylinder always means a circular cylinder. [2]

  3. Right circular cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_circular_cylinder

    A right circular cylinder is a cylinder whose generatrices are perpendicular to the bases. Thus, in a right circular cylinder, the generatrix and the height have the same measurements. [ 1 ] It is also less often called a cylinder of revolution, because it can be obtained by rotating a rectangle of sides r {\displaystyle r} and g {\displaystyle ...

  4. Gas cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_cylinder

    A gas cylinder quad, also known as a gas cylinder bundle, is a group of high pressure cylinders mounted on a transport and storage frame. There are commonly 16 cylinders, each of about 50 litres capacity mounted upright in four rows of four, on a square base with a square plan frame with lifting points on top and may have fork-lift slots in the ...

  5. Bottled gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bottled_gas

    Normal high pressure gas cylinders will hold gas at pressures from 200 to 400 bars (3,000 to 6,000 psi). An ideal gas pressurised to 200 bar in a cylinder would contain 200 times as much as the volume of the cylinder at atmospheric pressure, but real gases will contain less than that by a few percent. At higher pressures, the shortfall is greater.

  6. Cascade filling system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cascade_filling_system

    A breathing set cylinder may be filled to its working pressure by decanting from larger (often 50 liters) cylinders. (To make this easy the neck of the cylinder of the Siebe Gorman Salvus rebreather had the same thread as an oxygen storage cylinder, but the opposite gender, for direct decanting.) The storage cylinders are available in a variety ...

  7. Pneumatic cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pneumatic_cylinder

    Pneumatic cylinder, also known as air cylinder, is a mechanical device which uses the power of compressed gas to produce a force in a reciprocating linear motion. [ 1 ] : 85 Like in a hydraulic cylinder , something forces a piston to move in the desired direction.

  8. Travel Sentry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Travel_Sentry

    Travel Sentry developed a lock system that is "accepted and recognized" by the TSA, Canadian Air Transport Security Authority (CATSA) and other security agencies, and allows them, using special tools and codes, to open and re-lock locks. The tools provided by Travel Sentry are at every luggage screening checkpoint at all 450 airports controlled ...

    TSA's seal when first established under the Department of Transportation Historical TSA design used on TSO uniform patch, coin, and Year of Service pins. The TSA was created largely in response to the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, which revealed weaknesses in existing airport security procedures. [6]
