A gas sensor is a device that is designed to detect the presence or concentration of gases in the surrounding environment. These sensors are widely used in various applications, including industrial processes, environmental monitoring, safety systems, and consumer electronics. Gas sensors work by responding to the physical or chemical changes that occur when a specific gas comes into contact with the sensor material.

The convergence box in the photovoltaic power generation system is to ensure that the photovoltaic module orderly connection and convergence function of the wiring device. This device can guarantee that the PV system is easy to cut off the circuit during maintenance and inspection, and reduce the scope of power outage when the PV system fails.

The working principle of a Roots blower is based on the rotation of the Roots rotors and the variation in the internal chambers. As the rotors rotate, the small gap between them allows gas to be drawn in and compressed. As the rotors continue to rotate, the compressed gas is pushed to the outlet of the casing, further compressed, and discharged. In this process, intake and exhaust valves control the flow of gas, ensuring that the gas can only move in one direction.

The Diaphragm valve is a diaphragm as the opening and closing parts close the flow path, cut off the fluid, and the valve body cavity and bonnet cavity separated from the stop valve. The structure of the diaphragm valve is very different from the general valve, is a new type of valve, and is a special form of stop valve, its opening and closing parts are a piece of soft material made of diaphragm, the valve body cavity and the bonnet cavity and drive parts separated, is now widely used in various fields.

A sound level meter is a fundamental tool for measuring noise; it is an electronic instrument distinct from objective electronic instruments like voltmeters. When converting sound signals into electrical signals, it simulates the time characteristics of the human ear's response to sound waves: frequency characteristics with different sensitivities to high and low frequencies and intensity characteristics that change with different loudness levels. Therefore, a sound level meter is a subjective electronic instrument. In this article, ATO industrial automation will introduce the basic information about the sound level meter (including its structure, working principle and applications) for you.

An LCR meter is a type of electronic test equipment used to measure the inductance (L), capacitance (C), and resistance (R) of an electronic component. In the simpler versions of this instrument, the impedance was measured internally and converted for display to the corresponding capacitance or inductance value. Readings should be reasonably accurate if the capacitor or inductor device under test does not have a significant resistive component of impedance. More advanced designs measure true inductance or capacitance, as well as the equivalent series resistance of capacitors and the Q factor of inductive components. ATO online shop will go into detail about the LCR meter.

A bandpass filter is a type of filter used in electronic signal processing with the purpose of selecting signals within a specific frequency range while attenuating or eliminating signals outside that range.
