Subject field(s)
  • Pumps
DEF

A pump barrel available for either tubing pumps or rod(insert) pumps.

CONT

A full cylinder liner barrel consists of a steel jacket inside of which is a full-length tube of cast iron or special alloy. The inner surface of the barrel is polished to a mirrorlike finish to permit a fluid-tight seal between it and the plunger. A sectional liner barrel differs from the full liner barrel in that the tube placed inside the steel jacket consists of a series of sections placed end to end and held firmly in place by means of threaded collars on the ends of the steel jacket.

Record 8 1994-05-19

English

Subject field(s)
  • Pumps
CONT

The deep well reciprocating pump... is sometimes referred to as a "working head" because it acts merely as a power unit to operate the pumping barrel or cylinder in the well, force the water where desired and supply air when needed.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Pompes
CONT

On appelle parfois la pompe alternative pour puits profond [...] «tête de pompage» étant donné qu'elle ne sert qu'à assurer le déplacement du piston dans le corps de pompe installé dans le puits, à refouler l'eau à l'endroit voulu et à fournir l'air, au besoin.

Record 9 1994-04-28

English

Subject field(s)
  • Pumps
CONT

It should be noted that both single and double acting working barrels are available. In many instances the double acting barrel is selected because it will pump 65% more water than the same size single acting barrel and uses only 15% more horsepower to do the work.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Pompes
CONT

Il est à noter qu'on trouve des pistons à simple et à double effet. Le choix porte généralement sur le piston à double effet qui donne un rendement de 65% supérieur à celui du piston à simple effet de même taille, bien qu'il ne requière qu'une puissance additionnelle de 15 pour cent.

OBS

(...) arme dont le mécanisme de chargement comporte une phase automatique: déverrouillage et ouverture de la culasse, le tireur ou l'artificier n'intervenant que pour la fermeture et le verrouillage. C'est à tort que l'on a qualifié de semi-automatique les armes capables d'effectuer des tirs "coup par coup" et par "rafales". Ces notions ont souvent été prises en mauvaise part (...)
