  2. Pneumatic cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pneumatic_cylinder

    Air cylinders are available in a variety of sizes and can typically range from a small 2.5 mm (1 ⁄ 10 in) air cylinder, which might be used for picking up a small transistor or other electronic component, to 400 mm (16 in) diameter air cylinders which would impart enough force to lift a car. Some pneumatic cylinders reach 1,000 mm (39 in) in ...

  3. IEC 60228 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEC_60228

    Comparison of SWG (red), AWG (blue) and IEC 60228 (black) wire gauge sizes from 0.03 to 200 mm² to scale on a 1 mm grid – in the SVG file, hover over a size to highlight it. In engineering applications, it is often most convenient to describe a wire in terms of its cross-section area, rather than its diameter, because the cross section is directly proportional to its strength and weight ...

  4. Reciprocating compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reciprocating_compressor

    A reciprocating compressor or piston compressor is a positive-displacement compressor that uses pistons driven by a crankshaft to deliver gases at high pressure. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Pressures of up to 5,000 psig are commonly produced by multistage reciprocating compressors.

  5. Compression seal fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compression_seal_fitting

    In mechanical engineering, a compression seal fitting, also known as a sealing gland, is intended to seal some type of element (probe, wire, conductor, pipe, tube, fiber-optic cable, etc.) when the element must pass through a pressure or environmental boundary. [1] A compression seal fitting may serve several purposes:

  6. American wire gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_wire_gauge

    AWG is colloquially referred to as gauge and the zeros in thick wire sizes are referred to as aught / ˈ ɔː t /. Wire sized 1 AWG is referred to as "one gauge" or "No. 1" wire; similarly, thinner sizes are pronounced "x gauge" or "No. x" wire, where x is the positive-integer AWG number. Consecutive AWG wire sizes thicker than No. 1 wire are ...

  7. Load cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_cell

    The load cell is completely filled with oil. When the load is applied on the piston, the movement of the piston and the diaphragm results in an increase of oil pressure. This pressure is then transmitted to a hydraulic pressure gauge via a high pressure hose. [4] The gauge's Bourdon tube senses the

  8. Birmingham gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birmingham_gauge

    The Birmingham gauge is also known as the Stubs Iron Wire Gauge or Birmingham Wire Gauge and is distinct from the Stubs Steel Wire Gauge and the British Standard Wire Gauge. It is commonly referred to simply as gauge (abbreviated as G ), [ 3 ] but this should not be confused with the French gauge , a separate system used for measuring the outer ...

  9. Compression ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compression_ratio

    For example, if the static compression ratio is 10:1, and the dynamic compression ratio is 7.5:1, a useful value for cylinder pressure would be 7.5 1.3 × atmospheric pressure, or 13.7 bar (relative to atmospheric pressure). The two corrections for dynamic compression ratio affect cylinder pressure in opposite directions, but not in equal strength.
