WGS 84 coordinate reference system is the latest revision of the World Geodetic System, which is used in mapping and navigation, including GPS satellite navigation system (the Global Positioning System).

Geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) define a position on the Earth’s surface. Coordinates are angular units. The canonical form of latitude and longitude representation uses degrees (°), minutes (′), and seconds (″). GPS systems widely use coordinates in degrees and decimal minutes, or in decimal degrees.

Latitude varies from −90° to 90°. The latitude of the Equator is 0°; the latitude of the South Pole is −90°; the latitude of the North Pole is 90°. Positive latitude values correspond to the geographic locations north of the Equator (abbrev. N). Negative latitude values correspond to the geographic locations south of the Equator (abbrev. S).

Longitude is counted from the prime meridian ( IERS Reference Meridian for WGS 84) and varies from −180° to 180°. Positive longitude values correspond to the geographic locations east of the prime meridian (abbrev. E). Negative longitude values correspond to the geographic locations west of the prime meridian (abbrev. W).

UTM or Universal Transverse Mercator coordinate system divides the Earth’s surface into 60 longitudinal zones. The coordinates of a location within each zone are defined as a planar coordinate pair related to the intersection of the equator and the zone’s central meridian, and measured in meters.

Elevation above sea level is a measure of a geographic location’s height. We are using the global digital elevation model GTOPO30 .

Elektrostal , Moscow Oblast, Russia

Right from day one, Safari took the decision to develop a snorkel system that exceeded the air flow requirements of the gutsy RD28-T turbo diesel engine.

This of course applies to components that are not visible.

For example in order to achieve the optimum air flow and the maximum user convenience (for other under-hood accessories), a special smooth bore tough wall connection hose was engineered to closely couple the snorkel body to the standard air intake assembly. This specialized hose is specifically constructed for positive sealing at each end and is exceptionally tough to eliminate any possibility of hose collapse under suction - and super tough to withstand high under-hood temperatures. In addition, this special hose delivers a shot of cool fresh air directly into the air cleaner assembly. The result is maximum engine performance and bullet-proof durability.

In other words, maximum engin e performance and the best possible fuel economy, but also the best structural integrity for a lifetime of hassle-free motoring over and through the world's toughest terrain. A bonus is that the use of this special hose delivers the maximum convenience for those who wish to install additional under-hood accessories.

Huge air flow is but one aspect of the ultimate in snorkel design. The Safari air ra m is designed to perform two very important roles. The most obvious is to funnel cool clean air into the snorkel body - but just as importantly, the Safari air ram acts as a highly efficient water separator to remove rain water from the incoming air stream - thus ensuring safe engine operation through even the most torrential tropical storms.

In addition, the detachable Safari air ram can be rotated to any position. This means great peace of mind for those who plan to travel in cold or high altitude conditions where heavy snow falls are anticipated. By rotating the air ram to face away from the prevailing wind/direction of motion, the air ram delivers additional protection from the choking effects of snow build-up inside the air intake.

The Safari Snorkel body and air ram are manufactured to the highest standards in durable, UV stable, cross linked polyethylene material. In addition, the substantial material wall thickness delivers huge physical strength to ensure that the snorkel breezes through the toughest off-road conditions on the planet.

The Safari Snorkel system is supplied as a complete and comprehensive system that includes every nut, bolt and bracket required for installation - right from robust zero-corrosion stainless steel studs, self-locking nyloc nuts and large diameter anodized body washers through to the tough plastic A-pillar inserts.

Title : Active carbons as nanoporous materials for solving of environmental problems

However, up to now, the main carriers of catalytic additives have been mineral sorbents: silica gels, alumogels. This is obviously due to the fact that they consist of pure homogeneous components SiO2 and Al2O3, respectively. It is generally known that impurities, especially the ash elements, are catalytic poisons that reduce the effectiveness of the catalyst. Therefore, carbon sorbents with 5-15% by weight of ash elements in their composition are not used in the above mentioned technologies. However, in such an important field as a gas-mask technique, carbon sorbents (active carbons) are carriers of catalytic additives, providing effective protection of a person against any types of potent poisonous substances (PPS). In ESPE “JSC "Neorganika" there has been developed the technology of unique ashless spherical carbon carrier-catalysts by the method of liquid forming of furfural copolymers with subsequent gas-vapor activation, brand PAC. Active carbons PAC have 100% qualitative characteristics of the three main properties of carbon sorbents: strength - 100%, the proportion of sorbing pores in the pore space – 100%, purity - 100% (ash content is close to zero). A particularly outstanding feature of active PAC carbons is their uniquely high mechanical compressive strength of 740 ± 40 MPa, which is 3-7 times larger than that of  such materials as granite, quartzite, electric coal, and is comparable to the value for cast iron - 400-1000 MPa. This allows the PAC to operate under severe conditions in moving and fluidized beds.  Obviously, it is time to actively develop catalysts based on PAC sorbents for oil refining, petrochemicals, gas processing and various technologies of organic synthesis.

Mukhin was directed to work to the scientific-industrial organization "Neorganika" (Elektrostal, Moscow region) where he is working during 47 years, at present as the head of the laboratory of carbon sorbents.     Victor M. Mukhin defended a Ph. D. thesis and a doctoral thesis at the Mendeleev University of Chemical Technology of Russia (in 1979 and 1997 accordingly).

Snorkel - Nissan or safari v-spec

• Add to quote

I have been after a snorkel for a while. I’m not interested in stainless so it’s standard or safari for me. A Nissan snorkel has came up very cheap and I’m wonder should I hold out and get the safari? I have read about leaking issues with the Nissan snorkel and safari advertise improved airflow over the Nissan snorkel. Is there any real difference between the two and are the airflow differences noticeable or important and are the leaking water / air issues a big issue or deciding factor? Cheers legends!  

Same same. Not much of a performance difference between the two. I prefer the look of the Genuine Nissan one as the Safari upright heads don’t follow the A-pillar contour as nice as the genuine one. M2cw, either is OK, but if you buy second hand, make sure you get the entire kit, not just the bit on the outside of the fender.  

I think it looks nicer too, yea it comes with the parts and pillar mount. Thanks  

You wilk be fine as long as it is in good condition, check the connections.  

Thanks. Will do  

I recently pulled a factory snorkel off. Didn't appear to be sealed at all. The replacement was between stainless (black) or safari. I decided to go with the stainless. Looks pretty good to me and I'm certain its sealed.  

My only problem with stainless is they are much noisier and I hear lots of people talking about rain going in them. Yes I do plan on light water crossing as my main reason for purchase, the other being clean airflow. I do have to remember to do the diff breathers, hopefully I can do them soon when I replace the diff oils. if the Nissan one isn’t going to seal great, even for a steal I’m not sure I’ll beI do like that there is the option for pre filter for the safari if you want it.

@Gold Seeking Patrol , I have a Safari Ram Head on my 4" SS snorkel and have never seen water in the airbox. Same as when I had the GUIV 08 CRD Safari snorkel fitted with Ram Hd. So what airbox do you intend to use and method of connecting/sealing of the snorkel air duct to the airbox to avoid water ingress?

I can post pics but what airbox do u intend to use (stock or aftermarket)?  

Just of the snorkel and air ram. I’m using stock but if I went stainless I’d want to do a fatz fabrication or dats cool style one  

The Fatz ones look nice. I went with radius fab. Mostly because I wanted a flat air filter so I could store spares easier. It was a toss up between that and the Mamba one.  

Bidja said: OK this is the 4"SS with Ram Hd connected to an airbox similar to that u refer. Click to expand...

Dazz09 said: I went with radius fab. Click to expand...

Bidja said: This is the airbox I use, panel filter would be great but have room constraint Click to expand...

I just went with one from ocam 4x4 cost me like $119 looks identical to safari stock airbox too and still made good numbers with a tune!!  

One thing you will definitely need with any bought Nissan or Safari Snorkel is a Template for the guard. It needs to be supplied with any second hand one. If your Patrol is around GU3 I have a Nissan one for use when I bought mine, which I had installed to my 2003 STL ZD30. I also put some white sealer on the ring between the guard and the box (standard) to ensure watertight connection. You really don't want water ingress going through a river crossing. Gonna make a good day bad.  

Search results for query: Safari snorkel template

I think Garry at Nizzbits was able to supply templates for the Nissan snorkels.  

Thanx for that.  

Nizzbits sell templates for $25, get a few oil filters while your there. I’ll get to the other replies soon  

Were there any templates in the links I posted above, I know someone posted templates?  

I’ll have a look in a few hours when the kiddies go to bed, always keen to get it for free, if not I’ll buy it and take it to office works to scan and I’ll put it on here  

I think I might still have a pdf of the genuine template somewhere but from memory it’s bigger than even A3, so you’d still have to go to Officeworks to print it. If Garry still has them it might not be such a bad idea to get one from him.  

Sorry for the late reply, Ok 👌 so while I’d like to do it once my ambition is bigger than my wallet. I went and checked out the Nissan snorkel and for $50 AUD I say it was a steal and had to take it. No visible damage and included all the parts. I’m thinking of upgrading the clamps to t bolt type and the silicone joiner as @Bidja Said but I will have to find out which one I need. @AndrieK I still haven’t checked the post gu2 put up, I will though just been busy with house stuff. If you have it I’d love a copy. Happy to print any size and if not sweet $25 from Nizzbits is a pretty sweet deal.  

Gold Seeking Patrol said: I’m thinking of upgrading the clamps to t bolt type Click to expand...

T bolts are WOFTAM as far as I'm concerned. I have st/st worm drivd that have a sliding undershield with rounded edges to protect the hose from indentation, have used up to 30psi with no issues.  

Do some work and ensure snorkel entry into what ever airbox used is sealed well.  

I will do my best.  

I’ll do my best. I’ll workout the best silicone joiner to replace the factory piece and I’ll seal each section.
