2. Water rocket - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_rocket

   A standard bicycle/car tire pump, capable of reaching at least 75 psi (520 kPa). Water pressure forcing all the air in an empty water hose into the rocket. Pressure is the same as the water main. An air compressor, like those used in workshops to power pneumatic equipment and tools. Modifying a high pressure (greater than 15 bar / 1500 kPa ...

3. Air line - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_line

   An air line is a tube, or hose, that contains and carries a compressed air supply. In industrial usage, this may be used to inflate car or bicycle tyres or power tools worked by compressed air, for breathing apparatus in hazardous environments and to operate many other pneumatic systems.

4. Air-line fitting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air-line_fitting

   One side is connected to a flexible supply hose; the other may be attached to a manifold, valve, tool, or another hose. A female coupler is used on the supply side, and a male nipple is used on the receiving side. Fitting profiles have identifiable geometry on the male end, but care must be taken to use a compatible coupler.

5. Self-contained breathing apparatus - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-contained_breathing...

   Some types are also referred to as a compressed air breathing apparatus (CABA) or simply breathing apparatus (BA). Unofficial names include air pack, air tank, oxygen cylinder or simply pack, terms used mostly in firefighting. If designed for use under water, it is also known as a scuba set (self-contained underwater breathing apparatus).

6. Diving air compressor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diving_air_compressor

   Breathing air compressors must be carefully designed and placed so that the compressor's intake is located in fresh air well away and upstream from any engine exhaust. [5] [6] Lubricating-oil vapour – Oil, which must be used to lubricate the compressor's internal parts, can be harmful if it contaminates the breathing gas and is inhaled as a mist.

7. Air compressor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_compressor

   Air compressor supplies air into a nail gun.. An air compressor is a machine that takes ambient air from the surroundings and discharges it at a higher pressure. It is an application of a gas compressor and a pneumatic device that converts mechanical power (from an electric motor, diesel or gasoline engine, etc.) into potential energy stored in compressed air, which has many uses.
