air gapIn the drainage system, the unobstructed vertical opening between the lowest opening of a waste line and the flood level of the device into which it empties. Its purpose is to prevent backflow contamination.
|

air gap1) The negative pressure that can result when a hand-held shower faucet or sink sprayer is dropped into a sink or tub. If negative pressure exists, wastewater can be siphoned out into the supply system. Newer products have backflow protection or a vacuum breaker (vertical spray bidet) to prevent the problem. 2) The distance between the flood level [..]

air gapThe space between the fork cap and top of the oil inside a fork. Used as a tuning variable to help with bottoming and harshness.
|
13 |
air gapThe space between magnetic poles or between rotating and stationary assemblies in a motor or generator.

air gapserif"> - The free space that the magnetic flux must cross when a magnetic circuit contains a break. Cracks produce small air gaps on the surface of a part.
|
16 |
air gapIn an electrical machine, the space between the rotor and stator across which magnetic lines of flux must travel through air.
|
17 |
air gapIn a speaker's motor section, the space between the top plate and the pole piece. This is where the magnetic flux field is concentrated and where the voice coil interacts with it.

24 |
air gapAn unobstructed vertical air space that separates the end of a supply line and the flood level rim of a sink, tank, floor drain, etc. Maintaining air gaps is the best method for preventing backflow because it is simple, economical, and fail safe.
