  2. Penetrometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penetrometer

    Penetrometers are used for objective evaluation of food products. Penetrometers, equipped with a plunger and a needle or cone, penetrate food samples through gravitational force for a selected period of time. The distance the test device penetrates into the sample is measured to determine the relative tenderness of the samples such as baked ...

  3. Quick connect fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quick_connect_fitting

    For hoses and piping, a quick connect fitting, also called a push fitting, is a coupling used to provide a fast, make-or-break connection of gas or liquid transfer lines. Operated by hand, quick connect fittings replace threaded or flanged connections, which require wrenches. When equipped with self-sealing valves, quick connect fittings will ...

  4. Autogas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autogas

    Gas lines and fittings. Containment hose, liquid hose, copper pipe with flared end plus brass elbows and T fitting. The hose between the filler and tank(s) is called the fill hose or fill line. The hose or pipe between the tank(s) and the converter is called the service line. These both carry liquid under pressure.

  5. Air-line fitting - Wikipedia

    These fittings or special-service variants may also be found in hydraulic applications and alternative compressed gas applications (Oxy-acetylene welding and cutting, fuel gases, NSF C-2 food-contact, etc.).

  6. Cone penetration test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cone_penetration_test

    The cone penetration or cone penetrometer test (CPT) is a method used to determine the geotechnical engineering properties of soils and delineating soil stratigraphy. It was initially developed in the 1950s at the Dutch Laboratory for Soil Mechanics in Delft to investigate soft soils. Based on this history it has also been called the "Dutch ...

  7. Fall cone test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fall_cone_test

    The Fall cone test, also called the cone penetrometer test or the Vasiljev cone test, is an alternative method to the Casagrande method for measuring the Liquid Limit of a soil sample proposed in 1942 by the Russian researcher Piotr Vasiljev (Russian: Пё́тр Васи́льев) and first mentioned in the Russian standard GOST 5184 from 1949.

  8. Tracer-gas leak testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tracer-gas_leak_testing

    A tracer-gas leak testing method is a nondestructive testing method that detects gas leaks.A variety of methods with different sensitivities exist. Tracer-gas leak testing is used in the petrochemical industry, the automotive industry, the construction industry [1] and in the manufacture of semiconductors, among other uses.

  9. Schlenk line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schlenk_line

    A Schlenk line with four ports. The cold trap is on the right. Close-up view, showing the double-oblique stopcock, which allows vacuum (rear line) or inert gas (front line) to be selected. The Schlenk line (also vacuum gas manifold) is a commonly used chemistry apparatus developed by Wilhelm Schlenk. [1] It consists of a dual manifold with ...
