Only @ couple got busted they @re pretty solid being Scotch sl@tes.
Just minor incidents nowt to mo@n @bout. :):)
Yup I do njoy Glencoe its one of my f@v pl@ces to go.

P@st s@villes old cott@ge its @ll spr@y p@inted wiv busted windows tis @n eye sore
they should knock it down.

UOTE="Stanleysteamer, post: 5492721, member: 107273"]I love that you gave me a "mench". I was in pneumatics/fluidics back in 1975/6 and yep I always called them NRVs or checks.
Valves really are fun, and the company i worked for did valves for anything including steam, which really eats the wrong sort of valve!
The impulse generator was the best thing we did as our competitors had no simple way of doing it.
Long time ago now and I am sure things have moved a long way on!;)[/QUOTE]

Hang about, you weren't Crouzet were you? It ain't that hard, all you need is 3/2 pilot / spring NO valve an a unidirectional flow control valve on the downstream side teed to the pilot, but is a neat idea. Saves loads of crap with logic cascades. Like pressure decay sensors and the like.
I was with Pneumax for 18 years. Norgren, Joucomatic, Camozzi an all that.
Bore the second concluded :)

Glad to hear it re the slates!!:):):)
Glencoe is so atmospheric, if there was a competition for "atmosphericness" in the UK I think Glencoe would be up there with it.
Flippin Savile's cottage ought to be razed to the ground and I don't understand why any local council would not do this. Completely obliterated then grass and bushes or trees grown over it so no one would ever know it had been there. :(

I has been in valves (industrial and pneumatic, now hydronic) fer nearly 40 year. NRV or check valve in my experience, few peeps say one way valve though it's the best name descriptively, with lots of sub divisions depending on duty. Swing, lift, piston, axial, double door, weighted, ball (spring, floating or sinking - steady Stan) cone, etc. Most notably 'duck billed'. :)
There endeth the (bore) lesson, you can close your notebooks now :D

While we're at it. Next time you're behind a tarmac truck with a pneumatic lift, take a look at the rams. If they're cylindrical with a premade rear male clevis..






I designed em :D

I was with KS PipelineSsupplies, long gone, part of the John James group. Specialist Enots rep. So my main competitiors were Schrader and Martonair. I have no idea if they are still around. I packed it in to go to uni in 1976. I agree it wasn't hard but the IG was soooo simple to pipe up and you'll know as I did that the average production line mech didn't really get to grips with pneumatics. so what was easy for them was always a bonus!
Bore over again!:):)

Norgren Martonair Enots are all the same now. There's only so much you can do with air so the logic hasn't changed much. Gives you a good sense of electrics I think, though normally open / closed are totally opposite.
