STILL. A tin-lined copper still and worm of twogallons capacity will yield about six gallonsof distilled water per day. Water is fed tothe inverted siphon at D, and is sealedagainst the low steam pressure by the dropof the bend at B. Still should not be overhalf full for best effect. HYDRAULIC TOWER AND APPLIANCES. 131 312. WATER-PRESSURE REGULATOR. Used in high-pressure service pipes. The diaphragm x and plunger s operate the valve c through the lever r,and the relative pressures areregulated by the movable ful-crum e. a, high-pressure pipe;b, low-pressure pipe; v, pas-sage to diaphragm from ^--^-^^^ «f==^. W^ lJ 313. VENTURI TUBE AND MEASURINGMETER. The differential velocity of the water in themain pipe and in the throat of the double conical tubeproduces a differential pressure in the small tubes withtheir mouths turned in opposite directions, which is usedfor registering the amount of water flow in the main _ pipe by the flow through the . small pipes. The measurementis made by a meter.
