2. Pressure regulator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_regulator

   Two-gauge pressure regulator connected to gas cylinder used for breathing gas supply. Pressure regulators are used with diving cylinders for Scuba diving. The tank may contain pressures in excess of 3,000 pounds per square inch (210 bar), which could cause a fatal barotrauma injury to a person breathing it directly. A demand controlled ...

3. Gas cylinder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_cylinder

   For gases that are liquid under storage, e.g., propane, the outlet pressure is dependent on the vapor pressure of the gas, and does not fall until the cylinder is nearly exhausted, although it will vary according to the temperature of the cylinder contents. The regulator is adjusted to control the downstream pressure, which will limit the ...

4. Gas meter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_meter

   Temperature, pressure, and heating value compensation must be made to measure actual amount and value of gas moving through a meter. Several different designs of gas meters are in common use, depending on the volumetric flow rate of gas to be measured, the range of flows anticipated, the type of gas being measured, and other factors.

5. Instrumentation in petrochemical industries - Wikipedia

   Pressure in blanketed tanks is maintained by self actuating pressure control valves (PCVs). As liquid is withdrawn from the tank the pressure in the gas space falls. The blanket gas supply valve opens to maintain the pressure. As the tank fills with liquid the pressure rises and a vent gas valve open to vent gas to atmosphere or a vent system. [11]

6. Autogas - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autogas

   Autogas or LPG is liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) used as a fuel in internal combustion engines in vehicles as well as in stationary applications such as generators. It is a mixture of propane and butane. [1] Autogas is widely used as a "green" fuel, as its use reduces CO 2 exhaust emissions by around 15% compared to petrol. [2]

7. Gas blending - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_blending

   Partial pressure gas blending equipment for scuba diving. A breathing gas is a mixture of gaseous chemical elements and compounds used for respiration. The essential component for any breathing gas is a partial pressure of oxygen of between roughly 0.16 and 1.60 bar at the ambient pressure. The oxygen is usually the only metabolically active ...
