  2. Booster pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Booster_pump

    Small compressed air powered breathing gas booster pump Haskell booster set up for charging rebreather cylinders from premix banks with low pressure compressor. A booster pump is a machine which increases the pressure of a fluid. It may be used with liquids or gases, and the construction details vary depending on the fluid.

    In the process industry, a standard set of symbols is used to prepare drawings of processes. The instrument symbols used in these drawings are generally based on International Society of Automation (ISA) Standard S5.1; The primary schematic drawing used for laying out a process control installation. They usually contain the following information:

  4. Deaerating feed tank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deaerating_feed_tank

    A deaerating feed tank (DFT), often found in steam plants that propel ships, is located after the main condensate pump and before the main feed booster pump. It has these three purposes: Remove dissolved oxygen (“air”) from the condensate; Pre-heat the feedwater; Provide a storage/surge volume

  5. Automobile accessory power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automobile_accessory_power

    The most ubiquitous vacuum-powered accessory is the booster for the power brake system. The vacuum is only an assist and the brakes can still function, requiring greater force, if the booster vacuum is used up. Many older vehicles used vacuum-powered windshield wipers. Loss of manifold vacuum when the engine was working hard, or at wide open ...

    An exploded-view drawing is a diagram, picture, schematic or technical drawing of an object, that shows the relationship or order of assembly of various parts. [ 1 ] It shows the components of an object slightly separated by distance, or suspended in surrounding space in the case of a three- dimensional exploded diagram.

  8. Boiler feedwater pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_feedwater_pump

    Feedwater pumps range in size up to many kilowatts and the electric motor is usually separated from the pump body by some form of mechanical coupling. Large industrial condensate pumps may also serve as the feedwater pump. In either case, to force the water into the boiler, the pump must generate sufficient pressure to overcome the steam ...

  9. Cascade filling system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cascade_filling_system

    Ideally, each storage cylinder has an independent connection to the filling panel with a contents pressure gauge and supply valve dedicated to that cylinder, and a filling gauge connected to the filling whip, so the operator can see at a glance the next higher storage cylinder pressure compared to the receiving cylinder pressure.
