2. Pressure regulator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_regulator

   Diagram symbols for pressure reduction and back pressure regulators. The conceptual difference is mainly in which side the feedback is taken from. A pressure regulator is a valve that controls the pressure of a fluid to a desired value, using negative feedback from the controlled pressure. Regulators are used for gases and liquids, and can be ...

3. Air line - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_line

   The compressed air lines will be piped from the compressor to one or multiple point of use outlets. At the outlet of a fixed air line you will typically find a Pressure regulator installed upstream of the termination/outlet point, this allows the user to regulate the pressure and flow of air to suit the desired use. The regulator allows each ...

4. Flow control valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_control_valve

   These types of valves are also known as automatic control valves. The hydraulic actuators respond to changes of pressure or flow and will open/close the valve. Automatic control valves do not require an external power source, meaning that the fluid pressure is enough to open and close them.

5. Compressor characteristic - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor_characteristic

   A compressor increases the pressure of a fluid passing through it, so that the exit pressure is higher than the inlet pressure. Due to this property, compressors are used in a wide range of machines, such as refrigerators , cars, jet engines and industrial processes.

6. Air compressor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_compressor

   Air compressor supplies air into a nail gun.. An air compressor is a machine that takes ambient air from the surroundings and discharges it at a higher pressure. It is an application of a gas compressor and a pneumatic device that converts mechanical power (from an electric motor, diesel or gasoline engine, etc.) into potential energy stored in compressed air, which has many uses.

7. Self-contained breathing apparatus - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-contained_breathing...

   Demand: 2000 psi to the regulator from the main valve, plus a bypass valve in case of failure, with a two-stage regulator reducing pressure to 50-100 psi. Pressure-Demand: Similar to demand, but with a spring in the diaphragm, which holds the admission valve open, for continuous air flow to the facepiece.
