The 2002 edition of the NFPA #13 standard, section 3.6.1 defines quick response sprinklers as having a response time index (RTI) of 50 (meter-seconds) 1/2 or less. RTI is a measure of how thermally responsive the heat-responsive element of the sprinkler is, measured as the time needed to raise the temperature of the sprinkler bulb to 63% of the ...

For example, in an office building classified as light hazard, a typical design area would be 1,500 square feet (140 m 2) and the design density would be 0.1 US gallons per minute (0.38 L/min) per 1 square foot (0.093 m 2) or a minimum of 150 US gallons per minute (570 L/min) applied over the 1,500-square-foot (140 m 2) design area.
A common type of this style fitting is a "hex bushing" with a hex head for installation with a pipe wrench. A double-tapped bushing is more compact than a reducer but not as flexible. While a double-tapped bushing has a more minor female thread concentric to a larger male thread (and thus couples a smaller male end to a larger female), a ...
The 350 cu in (5,735 cc) B engine was, along with the 361, the first production B engine, first available in 1958. It had a bore of 4 + 1 ⁄ 16 in (103 mm; 4.06 in). The 350 is classified as a big-block engine. All parts except for the pistons are fully compatible with the 361. Vehicles using the B 350: 1958 DeSoto Firesweep; 1958 Dodge Coronet
In general well heads are five nominal ratings of wellheads: 2, 3, 5, 10 and 15 (×1000) psi working pressure. They have an operating temperature range of −50 to +250 degrees Fahrenheit. They are used in conjunction with ring type seal gaskets.
A mechanical fusible link is a device consisting of two strips of metal soldered together with a fusible alloy that is designed to melt at a specific temperature, thus allowing the two pieces to separate.
The larger boilers were 15 feet 9 inches (4.80 m) in diameter and 20 feet (6.1 m) long, the smaller were 11 feet 9 inches (3.58 m) in length. All ends had three corrugated Morrison furnaces of 3 feet 9 inches (1.14 m) diameter, 159 furnaces in total, and a working pressure of 215 pounds per square inch (1,480 kPa).
