In the figure there are three positive and four negative plates which together form the element, then with theirseparators are placed in a solution of sulphuric acid electrolyte.
The separators are thin pieces of wood and perforated rubber plates that keep the positive and negative plates from touching each other and keep in place the disintegration produced by the electro-chemical action of the cell.
Separators should be set in a bright, dry, airy place free from dust and dirt.
Modern separators consist of a pan which holds the milk, and which lets it flow in a stream into the portion of the machine which is being whirled rapidly by the turning of the wheel at the side.

An element consists of a complete set of plates bound together on strap, with wood and rubber separators for a single cell.
Rubber separators are better than the commonly used wood or paper separators because they prevent local action.
The elements are placed on their sides with the plates slightly spread apart at the bottom, the separators withdrawn, and the positive and negative groups pulled apart.
The separators used between the plates are hard rubber, ribbed on one side so as to prevent the positive plate from buckling.
If it be thought worth while to keep them, they must be immersed in water or weak electrolyte, and in re-assembling, the electrolyte must be put into the cells immediately, as wet wood separators must not stand exposed to the air.
In 1891, at Doncaster, special prizes were given for combined portable threshing and finishing machines, and cream separators (hand and power).
To prevent the active material from being shaken out of the grids, corrugated and perforated ebonite separators are placed between the plates.
Farmers who possess separators at home may deliver cream which, after being inspected and tested, is accepted and credited at its actual butter value, just as other raw material is sold to mills and factories.
In factories and private establishments together as many as 1884 separators were thus accounted for.
The most efficient separators remove nearly the whole of the butter-fat, the quantity of fat left in the separated milk falling in some cases to as low as 0.
Separators were likewise mistrusted by some who felt that they skimmed the cream inadequately.
Mechanical separators streamlined this task by allowing the milk to be separated while still warm, using centrifugal action to bring the heavier cream particles to the bottom of the machine.
In the days before mechanical separators the milk had to stand several hours for the cream to rise, and it was then skimmed by hand or the milk drawn off from the bottom of a can with a spigot.
Cut the side sticks H 18 inches long, and fasten between them the separators I, which should be just long enough to allow clearance for the spool pulley J.
Separators C, D, and E are of the sizes marked in Fig.
Before fastening the separatorsin position, =The Thrust Bearings= for the propellers, and the end plates for connecting the wire stays, must be prepared.
Frequent attention should be given the separators and traps to insure their proper operation.
Separators which have been in service are liable to be damaged by handling.
Broken separators should be replaced without loss of time, and the cells cleaned if the sediment in the jars is high.
Increasing the amount of acid will result in the plates and separators being attacked and injured by the acid.
The separators can be pulled out easily when the plates are laid on their sides.
Separator left out, cracked separator used, hole worn through separator by buckled plate or swollen negatives, or separators in some cells and new ones in others.
Separators which are more than a year old should be replaced by new ones, whether plates are defective or not.
Separators Worn Thin and Cut Through on Edges by Buckled Plates.
If separators stick to the plates, loosen them by inserting a putty knife blade between them and the plates.
The best thing to do is to hold the separators in one hand and insert them with the other, and not lay them on any bench at all.
There is another case where the groups must be separated and new separatorsinserted before they will take charge, and that is where the battery has suffered from lack of water and has sulphated clear through the separators, Fig.
I learned something of the superstition of the Siberian peasant when cream separators were first introduced.
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "separators" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
