What gas is used to power the AGRO-JET® and why?
MIT Canada FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)Carbon Dioxide (CO2) powers the AGRO-JET®. CO2 is a non-flammable liquid gas that can be safely stored at high pressure and is readily available in a variety of cylinder sizes. The cylinder supplied with the unit will power the AGRO-JET® through several hundred injections. No, only the medication passes through the skin; the CO2 simply powers the internal mechanism of the AGRO-JET®.
Can the AGRO-JET® be used on humans?
MIT Canada FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)The AGRO-JET®'s human counterpart is called the "MED-JET®" and is approved by Health Canada for use on humans. Indeed, the MED-JET® is used in Quebec each year to give the "Flu shot".
Where is the AGRO-JET® made?
MIT Canada FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)The AGRO-JET® was invented in Canada by MIT (Medical International Technologies (MIT Canada) Inc.), based in Montreal, Quebec. The delivery system is a patented design held by MIT and the only system in the world that delivers low-pressure injections at adjustable levels utilizing readily available sources of vaccine and propellant. The AGRO-JET® continues to be manufactured in Canada by MIT and is marketed throughout the world.
How much does the AGRO-JET® weigh?
MIT Canada FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)The AGRO-JET® (MIT-III) weighs about 2.2 lbs and is ergonomically designed for comfort and ease of operation.
Is the AGRO-JET® difficult to use?
MIT Canada FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)To the contrary, it is simplicity itself. Operators become fully familiar and comfortable with the AGRO-JET® within the first hour or two of use.
Why doesn't everybody buy one of these AGRO-JET's®?
MIT Canada FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)The AGRO-JET® is a state of the art, technological breakthrough that is poised to revolutionize mass-immunization and animal treatment programs. Many veterinarians and farm operators are not yet aware of its existence. That is about to change!
Does the AGRO-JET® orifice ever plug and if so, how do I unplug it?
MIT Canada FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)Flushing the unit with de-mineralized water after each session will minimize or eliminate any risk of plugging. If an orifice ever becomes plugged, the operator can usually remove the blockage within just a few minutes. Relieve any pressure by turning off the CO2 supply and holding down the trigger for 5 seconds to release the gas. Remove the skin stretcher and orifice from the barrel (retainer nut is hand-tight - no tools are required) and inspect closely.
What are some of the advantages of using the AGRO-JET® over conventional, hypodermic needles?
MIT Canada FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)The AGRO-JET® is safe, quick and extremely accurate. Virtually painless, animals will no longer suffer from needle-stick trauma, cysts or abscesses. Concerns regarding cross-contamination are eliminated as are any risks associated with broken needles and needle fragment contamination of carcasses. Needle-stick injuries to operators and handlers during and after injection are a thing of the past.
Conventional needle immunology can cause abscesses and cysts. How does the AGRO-JET® compare?
MIT Canada FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)Cysts and abscesses are caused by tissue damage inflicted by the needle at point of entry. The AGRO-JET® eliminates the occurrence of abscesses and cysts with little or no trauma to tissue. Its patented process delivers any vaccine or medication in a fine jet at low-pressure thus providing safe and painless entry with little or no trauma to the tissue at point of entry.
Is compressed air the only gas used to power a jet mill?
Jet Milling Equipment FAQs by The Jet Pulverizer Co.No. Commercially, compressed air is by far the most commonly used gas but super heated steam (no moisture is present in the super heat state) is used in very large installations grinding primarily titanium dioxide pigment. Nitrogen is commonly used when a material must be ground in an inert atmosphere to protect from oxidation and possible fire or even explosion of the product. Argon has also been used for this purpose if the less expensive nitrogen was unsuitable.
How will JET Performance Power Tuning affect my gas mileage?
JET Performance Products, Import & Domestic Performance, Per...JET Performance Power Tuning does not alter your vehicles calibrations in any way that would hurt fuel economy. Fuel economy will remain virtually the same or may even improve (depending upon specific driving patterns) unless the vehicle is driven in a spirited manner (lead foot). For trucks that tow, JET Performance's Power Tuning is generally closer to the better fuel economy than the stock tuning.
How often do I need to fill up the jet skis with gas?
Boat, Jet Ski & ATV Rental Toys Frequently Asked QuestionsWhen the tank is full, our jet skis will generally run between 6-8 hours depending on your speed and the duration of your ride.
Currently, why is electric cooling used more than gas cooling?
Frequently Asked Questions About Gas CoolingIn the United States, most cooling needs in the 1930s and 1940s were provided by gas. By the 1960s, electric chillers began making inroads into the cooling market due to lower cost equipment, low electric rates, and higher efficiency machines. In the 1970s, the use of gas was restricted and electric cooling use continued to increase. By 1990, only 5% of all air conditioning in the United States was provided by gas.
WHAT IS THE GAS USED IN THE SYSTEM?
Cooler Iran - Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) (English)Until 1993, mostly R12 was used in the older automobile A/C systems. In the mid-1993, based on research and studies, CFC gases were found to be harmful to the Ozone Layer. Therefore the use of R134a was recommended. the two gases are chemically different, they should not be combined or used at the same time in a system. If so, it will cause a failure to the performance of the A/C.
What is an arc jet facility used for?
FAQsTesting heat shield materials in an environment that simulates the high temperatures experienced during atmospheric entry at high speeds (spacecraft speeds from 15,000 miles per hour to over 100,000 mph).
What happens if the power/gas goes off?
Bay of Plenty ElectricityAll you have to do is call our Faults Service on 0800 500 710. This number is monitored seven days a week, 24 hours a day.
How is biomass used to produce electric power?
Bioenergy and Biomass Frequently Asked QuestionsWhen biomass is burned, it produces heat (as in any simple fireplace or furnace). In most power plants (steam-cycle or steam-turbine systems), this heat is captured by boiling water to generate steam, which turns turbines and drives generators that convert the energy into electricity. New technologies now being evaluated include several types of biomass gasifiers in which biomass is heated to convert it into a gas.
What biomass fuels are being used for electric power generation?
Bioenergy and Biomass Frequently Asked QuestionsToday, wood and wood-processing residues and by-products are the most widely used biomass fuels in the USA (where more than 500 electric power plants operate on biomass). These conventional steam-cycle power systems have the longest operating experience, and are well understood.
How high off the ground should the Power Bar be used?
Frequently Asked Questions and Customer Comments - The F.O.D...For the M & MW Series units the recommended operating height from the ground is the lowest possible height up to a maximum of five inches (12.7 cm). This is typically 3" to 5" (7.5 to 12.7 cm). Measure the highest known obstruction that will be driven over in the operations area, and use that as a starting point. Raise or lower until optimum performance height is reached.
