The spray valves open or close as the fuel flow changes, holding a constant fuel delivery pressure. An accelerator pump is either remotely mounted or mounted on the carburetor body. The accelerator pump is either mechanically connected to the throttle, or it is operated by sensing the manifold pressure change when the throttle is opened.
Bendix Corporation is an American manufacturing and engineering company which, during various times in its existence, made automotive brake shoes and systems, vacuum tubes, aircraft brakes, aeronautical hydraulics and electric power systems, avionics, aircraft and automobile fuel control systems, radios, televisions and computers.
A cross-section of a proportioning safety valve. A proportioning valve is a valve that relies on the laws of fluid pressure to distribute input forces to one or more output lines. Proportioning valves are frequently used in cars and other road vehicles to reduce the brake fluid pressure to the rear brakes. Due to weight distribution during ...
The ADI (anti-detonant injection) system, an adjunct to the pressure carburetor found on large military piston engines, consists of a supply tank for the ADI liquid (a mixture of 50% methanol, 49% water and 1% oil), a pressure pump, a pressure regulator, a spray nozzle, and a control diaphragm that moves the carburetor enrichment valve closed ...
180 hp (134 kW) at 2700 rpm, Minimum fuel grade 100 or 100LL avgas, compression ratio 9.00:1. Similar to the A1A except that it has a crankcase with an integral accessory section, front-mounted fuel pump, external mounted oil pump, automatic valve tappets and rocker arms and also a dual magneto.

Unlike air brakes, where a valve is opened and air flows into the lines and brake chambers until the pressure rises sufficiently, hydraulic systems rely on a single stroke of a piston to force fluid through the system. If any vapor is introduced into the system it will compress, and the pressure may not rise sufficiently to actuate the brakes.
Without relay valves, it would take too long for sufficient air to travel from the brake pedal valve to the rear of the truck or trailer in order to apply the rear service brakes concurrently with the front service brakes, resulting in a condition known as brake lag. To correct this condition on a long-wheel-base vehicle, a relay valve is ...
The driver's brake valve is a complicated valve system for controlling the compressed air brake of a railway vehicle. [1] Depending on its setting, it controls whether the brake pipes of a compressed air brake are evacuated and thus whether braking is applied or maintained; or if the brake pipes are connected to a compressed air reservoir, it ...
