A pulley elbow is a device that contains a ball bearing sheave(pulley) which guides stainless steel cable 90 degrees around the sheave. It is defined as a device used to change direction for stainless steel wire cable, which is housed in conduit and is used to connect to a cable operated manual pull station, a mechanical gas valve, and/or the fusible link detection, from the Ansul AUTOMAN Regulated Release Mechanism. It is used because bending conduit results in too much friction loss in the movement of the cable in the conduit. There are two types of pulley elbows. Part No. 415670 has socket ends with set screws for ½ in. conduit, and Part No. 423250 has compression ring ends also for ½ in. conduit.

Un palier lubrifié au gaz est un type de palier qui a ses surfaces de contact complètement séparées grâce à une couche de gaz. Même si une force est appliquée au palier, les surfaces restent hors de contact grâce à un coussin de gaz. [...] Les paliers à gaz ont certainement des avantages particuliers par rapport aux autres types de suspension : tout d'abord, ils permettent un fonctionnement avec un minimum de frottement; ensuite, ils protègent le moteur d'un environnement polluant; enfin, ils peuvent opérer dans une gamme de températures assez étendue. 3, record 12, French, - palier%20%C3%A0%20gaz%20cylindrique

The concept of productivity recognizes the interplay between various factors in the workplace. The output or results achieved may be related to different inputs or resources in the form of various productivity ratios, for example, output per labour hour, output per unit of material(as in kilometres driven per litre of gas) or output per unit of capital. Each of these productivity ratios may be influenced by a combination of factors, such as quality and availability of materials, scale of operations, rate of capacity utilization, availability and throughput capacity of capital equipment, attitude and skill level of the work force, motivation and effectiveness of the management. The manner in which these factors interrelate will have a bearing on the resulting productivity ratio. 1, record 13, English, - productivity%20ratio

Latex bearing plants of the Euphorbiaceae family usually contain, in addition to rubber, important levels of highly reduced constituents. However the molecular weight of these products is too high to allow for a direct use as fuels and/or feedstocks. We examined the pyrolysis of the latex and of the heptanic extract of Euphorbia tirucalli, a species commonly growing in East Africa. Pyrolyses were carried out under an inert gas flow, in the absence or in the presence of various zeolites.... The zeolitic catalysts-improve the yield of volatile products from the extract-influence the relative abundance of the volatile constituents of the pyrolysates-strongly increase the hydrocarbon level, especially from latex, in the low and medium volatility fraction. 1, record 14, English, - zeolitic%20catalyst
