Le système d’alimentation en mazout consiste en un réservoir fermé en acier muni d’un bouchon de remplissage, d’une jauge à mazout et d’une sortie aménagée au bas. Afin d’obtenir une alimentation par gravité, le réservoir doit être placé plus haut que le carburateur de l'appareil. Dans le cas contraire, l'ajout d’une pompe avec réserve sera nécessaire. 2, record 1, French, - alimentation%20par%20gravit%C3%A9

Comptage de l'eau. Système de jauge. Un robinet de jauge, du type à boisseau, comporte un diaphragme en verre ou en acier calibré, qui ne laisse passer en écoulement continu qu'une quantité fixe d’eau. Il est placé entre deux robinets d’arrêt, également à boisseau, l'un à son entrée, l'autre à sa sortie. Une tige de plombage protège le tout contre un changement délictueux du diaphragme. Le système de jauge nécessite un réservoir emmagasineur avec toutes ses sujétions(eau soumise aux températures extérieures et susceptible d’être polluée, terrasson de sécurité, distribution en parapluie de faible pression, etc.) Il est en voie d’abandon, mais on le trouve encore dans certaines régions où le débit journalier d’alimentation de la commune est assez faible pour n’ autoriser aucun gaspillage. 1, record 2, French, - robinet%20de%20jauge
