Definition of Air Lock from the PharmacyDictionary.in

Air Lock

“Air Lock” is a term that is also known as “air binding”. It refers to a situation where a vapor cavity, often filled with air or gas, interrupts a process such as pumping. This can occur when air or gas is entrained in the pump’s liquid, creating a blockage that disrupts the pump’s operation. It’s a common issue in various industries where pumps are used, and resolving it often involves addressing the source of the air or gas entrainment.
