Full Title

Full titles differ between systems:

IPC:

Jet pumps, i.e. devices in which fluid flow is induced by pressure drop caused by velocity of another fluid flow > the inducing fluid being liquid > displacing elastic fluids

CPC:

Jet pumps, i.e. devices in which flow is induced by pressure drop caused by velocity of another fluid flow (diffusion pumps F04F9/00; combination of jet pumps with pumps of other than jet type F04B; use of jet pumps for priming or boosting non-positive-displacement pumps F04D) > the inducing fluid being liquid > displacing elastic fluids

IPC and CPC are identically structured here. All 2 subcodes exist in both systems.

1 shared codes have differing titles between IPC and CPC.
