A later innovation, the floatless fill valve, designed for low-profile, low-flow toilet tanks, uses a pressure-sensing diaphragm mechanism instead of a float to control the inlet valve. [4] Delay valves, which delay the filling until the level has dropped to a low level, avert short-cycling of the water supply.
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.
A hydraulic tappet, also known as a hydraulic valve lifter or hydraulic lash adjuster, is a device for maintaining zero valve clearance in an internal combustion engine. Conventional solid valve lifters require regular adjusting to maintain a small clearance between the valve and its rocker or cam follower .

World leaders have offered their condolences following the death of former US President Jimmy Carter, who passed away Sunday at the age of 100.
The 4-1000A is a relatively large glass tube with an overall height of 9.25 inches and a diameter of 5 inches. It is designed to operate with its plate (anode) at an orange-red color due to the "getter" being a zirconium compound on the anode structure which requires a great deal of heat to be effective.
President-elect Donald Trump's "border czar" Tom Homan vowed to build "family facilities" to detain and deport the massive number of migrants who have entered the country illegally in recent years ...
All modern pressure cookers will have a pressure regulator valve and a pressure relief valve as a safety mechanism to prevent explosion in the event that the pressure regulator valve fails to adequately release pressure. Some older models lack a safety release valve [citation needed]. Most home cooking models are built to maintain a low and ...
