  2. Flow control valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_control_valve

    These valves achieve this using pressure-compensated mechanisms, which automatically adjust the valve opening to ensure a steady flow rate. Some designs incorporate a dual-chamber configuration that enhances regulation at lower pressures, improving stability in applications such as irrigation, industrial water systems, and municipal water ...

  3. Fast fuel system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fast_fuel_system

    These refueling Fast Fill Systems utilize an automatic shut off fuel nozzle, receiver and level control device. Refueling Fast Fill Systems operate by connection of a fill nozzle to the vehicle's fuel tank and with a source mounted pump that delivers fuel into the tank at rates up to 150 US gallons (570 L) per minute.

  4. Automatic lubrication system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_lubrication_system

    An automatic lubrication system consists of a reservoir with a pump, feed lines, metering valves, and injectors. The automatic lubrication system is connected to a control system via switchs. The control system may involve human input or may be computerised (computer numerical control or CNC). [2] [3]

  5. Control valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_valve

    An automatic control valve consists of three main parts in which each part exist in several types and designs: Valve actuator – which moves the valve's modulating element, such as ball or butterfly. Valve positioner – which ensures the valve has reached the desired degree of opening. This overcomes the problems of friction and wear.

  6. Valve actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_actuator

    The blue valve body is visible in-line with the pipe. The valve actuator opens or closes the butterfly disc of the valve based on electrical signals sent to the actuator. Another valve actuator is visible in the background, with windows to indicate the valve position. A valve actuator is the mechanism for opening and closing a valve. Manually ...

  7. Mass flow controller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_flow_controller

    All mass flow controllers have an inlet port, an outlet port, a mass flow sensor and a proportional control valve. The MFC is fitted with a closed loop control system which is given an input signal by the operator (or an external circuit/computer) that it compares to the value from the mass flow sensor and adjusts the proportional valve ...

  8. Automatic balancing valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_balancing_valve

    A diaphragm within the valve keeps the outlet pressure constant, and this delivers a constant flow to the terminal. The added advantage of pressure independent control valves is that, when fitted with an actuator, they replace the manual balancing valve and motorized control valve with a single valve, thus reducing installation cost. [citation ...

  9. Transmission solenoid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_solenoid

    A transmission solenoid or cylinoid is an electro-hydraulic valve that controls fluid flow into and throughout an automatic transmission. Solenoids can be normally open or normally closed. They operate via a voltage or current supplied by the transmission computer or controller.
