  2. Oil pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_pressure

    Murphy oil pressure gauges with switches that activate on low pressure. Oil pressure is an important factor in the longevity of most internal combustion engines. [1] With a forced lubrication system (invented by Frederick Lanchester), oil is picked up by a positive displacement oil pump and forced through oil galleries (passageways) into bearings, such as the main bearings, big end bearings ...

  3. Suzuki K engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suzuki_K_engine

    The Suzuki K engine family is a series of automobile engines from Suzuki, introduced in 1994. Displacements range from 0.7 L to 1.5 L. All engines have aluminium cylinder blocks with three or four cylinders in-line.

  4. New South Wales Z12 class locomotive - Wikipedia

    As part of the 1924 reclassification scheme, the remaining 48 members of the class were reclassified as the Z12 class and renumbered 1201 to 1248. With the conversion of 77 C30 class suburban tank engines (made redundant by electrification) into C30T class 4-6-0s, withdrawals begin with 23 taken out of service between 1928 and 1933. Many of the ...

    Each is rated to protect against personal access to hazardous parts, and additional type-dependent designated environmental conditions. A typical NEMA enclosure might be rated to provide protection against environmental hazards such as water, dust, oil or coolant or atmospheres containing corrosive agents such as acetylene or gasoline. A full ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stock_Tank_Oil

    Stack Tank Oil (STO) density (or API) may also be used by regulatory bodies to classify oil and oil products. Other properties such as Molecular Weight , saturated aromatic resin and asphaltene (SARA), refractive index , wax appearance temperature, asphaltene precipitation, and acid number , are also specified at Stock Tank conditions.

  8. Gas cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_cylinder

    The manifold may be arranged to allow simultaneous flow from all the cylinders, or, for a cascade filling system, where gas is tapped off cylinders according to the lowest positive pressure difference between storage and destination cylinder, being a more efficient use of pressurised gas. [39]

  9. High-integrity pressure protection system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-integrity_pressure...

    A high-integrity pressure protection system (HIPPS) is a type of safety instrumented system (SIS) designed to prevent over-pressurization of a plant, such as a chemical plant or oil refinery. The HIPPS will shut off the source of the high pressure before the design pressure of the system is exceeded, thus preventing loss of containment through ...
