The automated single car test(ASCT) is routinely used by railway maintenance personnel for inspecting, testing, and diagnosing car air brake system issues. In addition to testing for pronounced leakage(system, brake pipe, retainer leakage, reservoir), the ASCT will test such things as minimum application, service valve stability, service release, emergency vent valve operation, emergency accelerated release, and the operation of the empty/load device.  2, record 1, English, - automated%20single%20car%20test

While setting off the cars at Maxville, the conductor closed the angle cocks on the adjoining ends of the cars to be separated and did not vent the air, leaving the air brake line charged on the 74 cars left unattended on the main line. This practice is known in the industry as "bottling the air. "During a train service brake application, the head-end air brake pipe pressure is reduced below the tail-end air brake pipe pressure, creating a pressure differential. When the angle cock on a car is closed before the air pressure equalizes in the brake pipe, a pressure wave is created. This wave can initiate a brake release on the car, which will then cause the brakes to release on subsequent cars.  1, record 2, English, - bottling%20the%20air

Active soil depressurization has been found to be the most effective and reliableradon reduction technique in existing homes... This method involves installing a vent pipe through the basement floor slab... or connecting it to the foundation drain tiles through the sump. A fan that runs continuously is connected to the vent pipe. This reverses the air pressure difference between the house and soil, reducing concentrations of soil gas, including radon, next to the foundation.  3, record 3, English, - active%20soil%20depressurization

Dans les maisons déjà construites, la dépressurisation active du sol s’est révélée être la meilleure technique de réduction du radon par son efficacité et sa fiabilité. [...] Il faut installer un tuyau d’évacuation qui traverse la dalle de plancher [...] ou le relier au tuyau de drainage périmétrique en passant par le puisard. On adjoint au tuyau d’évacuation un ventilateur qui fonctionne en permanence. En inversant la différence entre la pression à l’intérieur de la maison et celle du sol, cette technique permet de réduire les concentrations de gaz souterrains, dont le radon, autour des fondations.  1, record 3, French, - d%C3%A9pressurisation%20active%20du%20sol

Back vent. A pipe or system of pipes connected to the drainage pipes of a plumbing system for the purpose of supplying or removing air to relieve pressures above or below atmospheric. A back vent is that part of a vent line which connects directly with an individual trap beneath or behind a fixture and extends to a branch or main soil or waste pipe at any point higher than the fixture or fixture trap it serves.  6, record 5, English, - back%20vent

Anti-siphonage pipe. An air pipe in a plumbing system which admits air downstream of a water seal in a w.c., sink or washbasin, thus preventing the creation of a vacuum in the wake of water flushed down the drain and avoiding the breakage of the seal which such a vacuum could cause. The top of an anti-siphonage pipe may be connected to a ventilation pipe.  2, record 5, English, - back%20vent

With conventional gas furnaces, little can be done to prevent losses of heated house air up the chimney when the furnace is firing. What can be prevented, though, is the loss that occurs when the furnace is not firing. A positive vent damper consists of a tight-fitting hinged damper door mounted in a steel collar and fitted into the flue pipe just before the pipe enters the chimney base. A fail-safe interlock switch prevents the furnace from firing unless the damper is completely open. This device may also be used with propane furnace.  1, record 10, English, - positive%20vent%20damper
