  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. Pneumatics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pneumatics

    A centrally located and electrically-powered compressor powers cylinders, air motors, pneumatic actuators, and other pneumatic devices. A pneumatic system controlled through manual or automatic solenoid valves is selected when it provides a lower cost, more flexible, or safer alternative to electric motors , and hydraulic actuators .

  6. Pin Index Safety System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pin_Index_Safety_System

    The pin index safety system uses a face seal between the cylinder valve and the associated yoke clamp. There are two holes in specific positions on the cylinder valve body below the outlet port , in positions associated with the gas mixture, which prevent connection of the cylinder to a yoke or pressure regulator with a mis-matched set of pins.

  7. Schrader valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schrader_valve

    Schrader valves are used in a wide variety of compressed gas and pressurized liquid applications such as small torch and grill cylinders, and air shocks. Schrader valves are also viewed as more complex (requiring two seals over one). They weigh 4 to 5 grams (0.14 to 0.18 oz) more than Presta valves. [10]

  8. Hydraulic seal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_seal

    A static hydraulic seal is located in a groove and sees no movement - only sealing within its confined space, acting like a gasket. To achieve this the gasket should be under pressure. The pressure is applied by tightening of the bolts. Examples of static seals include O-rings, flange seals, and cover seals. Dynamic

  9. End-face mechanical seal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End-face_mechanical_seal

    In mechanical engineering, an end-face mechanical seal (often shortened to mechanical seal) is a type of seal used in rotating equipment, such as pumps, mixers, blowers, and compressors. When a pump operates, the liquid could leak out of the pump between the rotating shaft and the stationary pump casing. Since the shaft rotates, preventing this ...
