Mann and Weil wrote and recorded "We Gotta Get Out of This Place" as a demo, with Mann singing and playing piano. It was intended for the Righteous Brothers , for whom they had written the number one hit " You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin' " [ 5 ] but then Mann gained a recording contract for himself, and his label Red Bird Records wanted him to ...
The pressure at which the control pilot relieves is the functional set pressure of the PORV. When the pilot valve reaches set pressure it opens and releases the pressure from the dome. The piston is then free to open and the main valve exhausts the system fluid. The control pilot opens either to the main valve exhaust pipe or to atmosphere ...
Pilot valves are useful because they allow a small and easily operated feed to control a much higher pressure or higher flow feed, which would otherwise require a much larger force to operate; indeed, this is even useful when a solenoid is used to operate the valve. Pilot valves are often used in critical applications (e.g., emergency and SIS ...
In the November 4, 1989, issue of Billboard, the album was the first album to reach that magazine's pop albums chart without being available as a vinyl record. The band also released the first two albums on one CD called Shooting Star/Hang on for Your Life ; it omitted two songs from the albums ("Stranger" and "Sweet Elatia").

They achieved considerable mainstream success during 1974–1975, primarily with the release of " Magic " which reached number one in Canada, [ 3 ] five on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 , six in Ireland and eleven in the United Kingdom.
An air-operated valve, also known as a pneumatic valve, is a type of power-operated pipe valve that uses air pressure to perform a function similar to a solenoid. As air pressure is increased, the compressed air starts to push against the piston or diaphragm walls which causes the valve to actuate.
In natural gas furnaces, water heaters, and room heating systems, a safety cut-off switch is normally included so that the gas supply to the pilot and heating system is shut off by an electrically operated valve if the pilot light goes out. This cut-off switch usually detects the pilot light in one of several ways: A flame rectification device. [2]
