    An o-ring boss seal is a technique for joining two fluid-carrying pipes, hoses, or tubing. In an o-ring boss (abbreviated ORB) system, a male-threaded part is inserted into a female-threaded part, providing a mechanical seal. This system differs from others in that a nut is tightened over an o-ring in a chamfered area, creating a fluid-tight ...

  7. Sodium-vapor lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium-vapor_lamp

    The light from the lamp consists of atomic emission lines of mercury and sodium, but is dominated by the sodium D-line emission. This line is extremely pressure (resonance) broadened and is also self-reversed because of absorption in the cooler outer layers of the arc, giving the lamp its improved color rendering characteristics.

  8. Airlift pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airlift_pump

    this pumping system is suitable only if the head is relatively low. If one wants to obtain a high head, one has to choose a conventional pumping system. because of the principle, air (oxygen) dissolves in the liquid. In certain cases, this can be problematic, as, for example, in a waste water treatment plant, before an anaerobic basin.
