In a car, 'press' refers to the oil pressure indicated on the dashboard. Below is an introduction to oil pressure: 1. Introduction: Oil pressure refers to the residual pressure of crude oil flowing from the bottom of the well to the wellhead. 2. Categories: It is divided into static pressure and flowing pressure. The oil pressure when the well is closed is called static pressure, while the oil pressure during production is called flowing pressure. Due to friction and resistance losses, flowing pressure is lower than static pressure. Static pressure can intuitively indicate the decline in formation pressure, while flowing pressure is related to production output—when production increases, flowing pressure decreases. 3. Conditions: The oil pressure when the ignition is turned on is generally 280 kPa, the idle oil pressure is 250 kPa, the maximum oil pressure is around 750 kPa, the regulated oil pressure is about 300 kPa, and the residual oil pressure is approximately 150 kPa.

How to Treat Exhaust Gas from Small Paint Booths?

Activated carbon adsorption utilizes porous activated carbon, diatomaceous earth, anthracite, etc., to adsorb organic gas molecules onto their surfaces, thereby achieving purification. The exhaust gas enters the spray tower through the duct, where dust particles are removed. After de-misting, it proceeds to the UV photolysis purification layer and activated carbon adsorption layer for further purification treatment.

How to Remove Tree Sap and Similar Substances from a Car?

Use a soapy water solution to wipe it off; ordinary soapy water is sufficient to remove tree sap. Soak and wipe with an alcohol solvent, such as high-proof liquor or directly applying alcohol, both of which are highly effective in dissolving and removing tree sap.

What Causes Brake Pedal Vibration?

Vibration in the brake pedal and steering wheel when braking may be caused by the following reasons: 1. For manual transmission vehicles, slight vibration in both the brake pedal and clutch pedal is normal when the vehicle is operating at low gear with high torque. 2. For automatic transmission vehicles, pedal vibration is also normal when stopping at a red light with the gear in D. Shifting to N or P gear will significantly reduce this sensation. 3. Warped brake discs can also cause vibration, especially during sudden braking. In such cases, it is generally recommended to replace the brake discs.

Do I Need to Brake in School Zones?

School zones require light braking, and the speed should not exceed 30km/h when passing through. Definition of a School Zone: A "school zone" refers to the distance between the sign that says "School Ahead, Slow Down" and the sign that says "School Zone, Exam Simulation." The evaluation criterion is that the speed within this zone should not exceed 30km/h. Braking is not specifically evaluated, but the driving speed must match the gear. Driving Test Evaluation Criteria: Failing to slow down as required or not applying the brakes within 30m before passing a bus stop will result in disqualification.
