Definitions

n.名词 noun
  1. 1
    • : a person or thing that injects.
    • : Machinery. a device for injecting feedwater into a boiler against high pressure by means of a jet of steam.Also called fuel injector. a mechanism consisting of a pump, valves, and nozzles for spraying fuel into the cylinders of an internal-combustion engine.

Examples

  • A jet injector — that’s what they’re called — subjects a vaccine to different conditions than a sterile needle and syringe.

  • Set the injector as low as possible, as it works best with smallest possible lift.

  • Care should be taken that the injector is not so near the boiler as to become heated, else it will not work.

  • Starting an injector always requires some skill, and injectors differ.

  • Of course you must be sure that all joints are air-tight, else the injector will not work under any conditions.

  • Never use an injector where a pump can be used, as the injector is much more wasteful of steam.
