  2. Zone valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zone_valve

    Lower total cost of ownership when zone valve failure and repair costs are taken into account. More robust and reliable system. Simple mechanical and control design ("SPST thermostats") Redundancy: If one zone pump fails, the others can remain working; Far superior method of linking multiple heat sources. Such as gas and solid fuel in one system.

  3. Smoke damper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smoke_damper

    The code also states that the damper shall be actuated and cycled. The inspections must be document indicating the location of the damper, date of inspection, name of inspector, and deficiencies discovered. [2] As with fire damper inspections, smoke damper inspections are required by Authorities Having Jurisdiction (AHJ's). The International ...

  4. Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heating,_ventilation,_and...

    Some systems include an "economizer mode", which is sometimes called a "free-cooling mode". When economizing, the control system will open (fully or partially) the outside air damper and close (fully or partially) the return air damper. This will cause fresh, outside air to be supplied to the system.

  5. Thermostat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermostat

    Pneumatic thermostats typically provide output/ branch/ post-restrictor (for single-pipe operation) pressures of 3-15 psi which is piped to the end device (valve/ damper actuator/ pneumatic-electric switch, etc.). [11] The pneumatic thermostat was invented by Warren Johnson in 1895 [12] soon after he invented the electric thermostat.

  6. Damper (flow) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damper_(flow)

    A damper may be used to cut off central air conditioning (heating or cooling) to an unused room, or to regulate it for room-by-room temperature and climate control - for example, in the case of Volume Control Dampers. [1] Its operation can be manual or automatic. Manual dampers are turned by a handle on the outside of a duct.

  7. Lycoming ALF 502 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lycoming_ALF_502

    The Lycoming ALF 502/LF 507 (later Honeywell ALF 502/LF 507) is a geared turbofan engine produced by Lycoming Engines, AlliedSignal, and Honeywell Aerospace. The U.S. military designation for the ALF 502 is YF102 .

  8. Dashpot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dashpot

    A less common type of dashpot is an eddy current damper, which uses a large magnet inside a tube constructed of a non-magnetic but conducting material (such as aluminium or copper). Like a common viscous damper, the eddy current damper produces a resistive force proportional to velocity. A common use of the eddy current damper is in balance scales.

    They required a two-seat aircraft with a second crewman who operated a telegraph key to spell out messages in Morse code. During World War I, AM voice two way radio sets were made possible in 1917 (see TM (triode) ) by the development of the triode vacuum tube , which were simple enough that the pilot in a single seat aircraft could use it ...
