Difference of Wet cell and dry cell batteries

The difference between wet cell and dry cell batteries is the makeup of the Electrolyte. The electrolyte is the material that conducts electricity in the battery. Wet cells have liquid electrolytes, while dry cells have solid electrolytes, usually in the form of a paste or powder. Wet cells were invented before dry cells, and they’re still used in some applications today. Car batteries are a type of wet cell battery. Dry cell batteries are more common. The batteries that run your TV remote control, for example, are dry cell batteries.Copied from- https://www.brainpop.com/
A wet-cell battery is the original type of rechargeable battery. It is commonly found in aviation, electric utilities, energy storage and cellphone towers. The battery contains a liquid electrolyte such as sulfuric acid, a dangerous corrosive liquid that damages what it comes into contact with. A dry-cell battery does not contain liquid. Smaller dry-cell batteries, such as alkaline or lithium ion, are typically used in portable electronics, such as toys, phones and laptops. - See more at: http://www.call2recycle.org/faqs/what-is-a-wet-cell-battery-and-how-does-it-differ-from-a-dry-cell-battery/#sthash.AtK8aZ4d.dpuf

terminology used in Food industries

There are some common terminology used in Modern food, Beverage, Pharmaceuticals  industries.  They are , CIP- Cleaning in Place, Wash off Line (WOL), SIP- Sterilizing in Place. The Cleaning-In-Place (CIP) is a system designed for automatic cleaning without major dis-assembly and assembly in work.  Sterilization-In-Place (SIP) are system designed for automatic disinfecting without major disassembly and assembly work. A well designed CIP system can favor you to clean one part of the plant while other areas continue to produce product. Wash off Line (WOL) is used in Tablet manufacturing process.

difference between spanner and Wrench

Spanner/Wrench
Maintenance common hand tools :
Many people confused with the Hand tools spanner and Wrench. The common tools used in the Industrial maintenance job as well as in the Automobile sector. These tools are used to  provide grip and mechanical advantage in applying torque to turn objects—usually rotary fasteners, such as nuts and bolts—or keep them from turning.Spanner is basically a British Term and Wrench is American Term. Another term used in AUS/NZ that is shifting spanner/ wrench.

bellows sealed valve

Bellows Sealed Valve Vs. Conventional Valve
Conventionally in the  globe valve used  in steam line uses gland packing. Instead of Gland packing The Bellows Sealed valve is consisting of  a bellows cartridge welded to the valve bonnet and stem. There is only a Gasket joint in the valve body and globe site only. So there is Little possibility to leak steam. What is bellows- A device with concertinaed sides to allow it to expand and contract.  As the valve stem strokes, the bellows expands or compresses with the stroke movement. Advantages of using Bellows sealed valve- Thought the initial cost of the bellows sealed valve is high with compare to conventional globe valve but with compare to maintenance and overhead costing is less. For a maintenance Engineer to select a bellows sealed valve instead of conventional valve is a good decision and he/she will be trouble free for a long time. Many factories where steam consumption in the floor is high, there multiple number of valves is needed and in conventional valves (Gland packed seal valve/piston ring valves) maximum times after a short time interval the gland packing leaked. As  a result it looks odd, time consuming to replace valves, Production hampered , risky.

circlips

Circlip : Industrial common fasteners
Circlip : Circlip is a common fastener used in Industries. It is also called  as a C-Clip,Seeger ring, snap ring or Jesus clip. The function of Circlip is to prevent lateral movement but permit to rotation. It is placed into a machined grooved. 
This fastener is consisting of a semi-flexible metal ring with open ends and it can be snapped into place. There are two types of Circlip : one is insider and another is outsider. Two remove Circlip technician used circlip pliers which are also have insider and outsider types. Circlip is used as a  permanent shoulder to hold components together such as a drive shaft. They are also used as spacers between gears such as in an automotive/truck transmission.
