in-line inductor: This type of proportioner educts or drafts foam concentrate from a container or tank by venturi action, utilizing the operating pressure of the hose water stream on which it is installed, injecting concentrate into that flow of water. 4, record 1, English, - in%2Dline%20foam%20concentrate%20inducer

There are three different types of foam proportioners commonly used in the fire service :line eductors, balanced pressure proportioners, and around-the-pump proportioners. The line eductor is the simplest and least expensive proportioning device. It has no moving parts in the water way, which makes it durable and dependable. The line eductor may be attached to the hoseline or may be part of the nozzle. There are two different types of line eductors : the in-line eductor and the self-educting nozzle. Both types of eductors use the venturi principle to draft foam concentrate into the water stream. As water at high pressure passes over a reduced opening, it creates a low-pressure area near the outlet side of the eductor. This low-pressure area creates a suction effect. The eductor pickup tube is connected to the eductor at this low-pressure point. The pickup tube submerged in the foam concentrate draws concentrate into the water stream, creating a foam water solution. 6, record 1, English, - in%2Dline%20foam%20concentrate%20inducer

Foam Concentrate Proportioners. In order that a predetermined volume of liquid foam concentrate may be taken from its source and placed into a water stream to form a foam solution of fixed concentration, the following two general method classifications are made: 1. Methods which utilize the pressure energy of the water stream by venturi action and orifices to induct concentrate. ... 2. Methods which utilize external pumps or pressure heads to inject concentrate into the water stream at a fixed ratio to flow. 2, record 6, English, - line%20eductor

Vacuum breakers are basically anti-syphonage preventers and should never be used where there is any possibility of back pressure. They fall into 2 categories : a. Atmospheric Type... b. Pressure Type... The atmospheric type vacuum breaker is designed for intermittent service only. It should never be installed with a shut-off valve on the outlet side. It should only be used where it will be under pressure for short periods(maximum : 12 hours in a 24-hour period), not under pressure most of the time. Typical applications are : a. Washing Machines; b. Lawn Sprinkler Systems; c. Photographic Developing Tanks; and d. Vending Machines. This type of vacuum breaker is mounted directly in the line, and has a limited flow capacity due to the fact that line flow passes through the vacuum breaker. 1, record 10, English, - atmospheric%20type%20vacuum%20breaker

Les brise-vide sont essentiellement des dispositifs anti-siphonnage et ne devraient jamais être utilisés là où il y a risque de contre-pression. Ils se divisent en deux catégories: a) brise-vide de type atmosphérique (...) b) brise-vide de type à pression (...) Le brise-vide de type atmosphérique est conçu uniquement pour un service intermittent. Il ne devrait jamais être monté avec un robinet d'arrêt placé en aval. On ne devrait l'utiliser qu'aux endroits où il n'est sous pression que pendant de courtes périodes (soit 12 heures maximum au cours d'une période de 24 heures). En voici quelques utilisations types: a) machines à laver; b) systèmes d'arrosage de pelouses; c) cuves de développement photographique, et d) machines distributrices.
