In modern electronics, efficient power conversion is crucial for various applications, ranging from power supplies in consumer electronics to industrial machines. Two of the most commonly used types of DC-DC (Direct Current to Direct Current) converters are the Buck Converter and the Boost Converter. Both are used to convert DC voltage levels, but they do so in different ways and are suited for different applications. Understanding the differences between these two converters is key to selecting the right one for a specific application.

A hot oil pump is a mechanical device specially designed for conveying and circulating high-temperature oil or hot oil. It plays a vital role in many industrial fields, especially in systems that require heat conduction, heating or temperature control through high-temperature media.

In industrial applications, soft starters are essential for ensuring smooth motor startups. However, there may be instances when a bypass output failure occurs, preventing the motor from functioning properly. This article will guide you on how to rely on an external bypass contactor to continue operating the motor in the event of such a failure, ensuring uninterrupted functionality.

DC-DC boost converter is a power converter used to boost DC voltage to a higher DC voltage. Its working principle is based on the cooperation between energy storage components and switching components (such as transistors), usually controlled by pulse width modulation (PWM) to turn on and off the switches. In this article, we will explore the evaluation tests conducted to assess the performance and reliability of the ATO DC-DC boost converter.

A power divider is a device that divides the energy of an input signal into two or more channels and outputs equal or unequal energy. It usually distributes the energy equally and divides the output into two, three, four, six, eight, twelve, and so on. Power divider is a key component in RF (Radio Frequency) systems designed for high-power applications. This device serves as both a power combiner and a splitter, effectively splitting the input RF signal into multiple paths or combining signals from different sources. In this blog, ATO Automation store will discuss the applications of power dividers.

Power divider is a key component in RF (Radio Frequency) systems designed for high-power applications. This device serves as both a power combiner and a splitter, effectively splitting the input RF signal into multiple paths or combining signals from different sources. Although the three-resistor power divider and the two-resistor power divider are similar components, they have different characteristics. Therefore, both have the most suitable and different use cases, which means they are not interchangeable. Although they look very similar, their functions and application scenarios are vastly different. This article will explore the differences between these two allocators.

In various applications, you may find the need to power devices that require higher voltages than what your current power supply can provide. A DC-DC boost converter is a device that steps up a lower DC voltage (like 12V) to a higher DC voltage (such as 24V). This type of converter is essential in various applications, especially when powering high-voltage devices from low-voltage sources.

In industrial and commercial ventilation systems, choosing the right type of fan is critical to ensuring system efficiency and performance. Axial fan and centrifugal fan are two of the most common fan types, and they differ significantly in their design, operating principles, performance characteristics, and application scenarios. This blog will delve into the differences between these two types of fans to help you make an informed decision when choosing a fan.

In modern industry and life, ventilation equipment plays a vital role. And as a common and important type of ventilation equipment, axial fans play an irreplaceable role in various fields with their many significant advantages. This blog will provide you with a detailed overview of the advantages of axial fans and help you understand why they have earned their place among the many ventilation solutions available.

In this guide, we will explore how to achieve forward and reverse control of a stepper motor using a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) and HMI (Human-Machine Interface). Below are the setup and programming steps required for precise control.

Limit switches are switching devices used to detect the position of mechanical equipment or components. They are used to control the on or off of a circuit by responding to displacement. When an object reaches a predetermined position, the limit switch will be triggered to send a signal to stop or change the direction of the object's movement, thus controlling the movement or stopping of the equipment. Limit switches are widely used in industrial automation, elevators, robotic arms, conveyor belts and other fields, by monitoring the position of machinery, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling the process.

The application of noise sensors is increasing in today's society, and their importance is not only reflected in the field of scientific research, but also plays a key role in many aspects such as urban planning, environmental protection, and public health. A noise sensor is a type of sensor used to measure the level of noise in an environment. It usually consists of one or more acoustic sensors that can detect and measure noise of different frequencies. The following is the price list of noise sensors provided by ATO online store, hoping to provide you with reference.A rectifier is a device that converts alternating current into direct current, which can be used for power supply devices and detecting radio signals. It has two main functions. First, to convert alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC), which is filtered and supplied to the load or inverter. Secondly, provide charging voltage to the battery. Therefore, it also serves as a charger. Almost all electronic devices use rectifiers internally in their power supply. In power supplies, rectifiers are usually connected in series after transformers, smoothing filters, and possibly voltage regulators. Below, we discussed some applications of rectifiers.

A vacuum gauge is a key component for measuring pressure in vacuum equipment, covering a pressure range from ultra-high vacuum to positive pressure (generally less than 2 atmospheres). The measurement accuracy of vacuum gauges of the same type is affected by various factors such as gas composition, temperature, altitude, and installation angle, and needs to be selected and calibrated according to the actual situation. In this blog, ATO will delve into various aspects of vacuum gauges, including their working principles, different types, and applications in various industries.

In this guide, we’ll explore how to utilize a soft starter in conjunction with a bypass contactor to achieve an on-delay soft start for a motor. This setup is crucial for reducing mechanical stress on the motor during startup, ensuring smoother operation and longevity.

A vacuum gauge is an instrument used to measure the degree of vacuum or air pressure. Generally, the measurement of air pressure is based on the changes in a certain physical effect under different air pressures. Widely used in scientific research and industrial production. The main component of a vacuum gauge is a hot cathode, and the heat emitted electrons generated during its operation ionize the gas. This ion flow is proportional to the number density of gas molecules. When all other parameters, including temperature, are constant, the size of the ion flow is proportional to the air pressure, and the air pressure value can be obtained by measuring the ion flow. The hot cathode ion gauge is mainly composed of three electrodes, namely cathode, gate, and collector.
