An insulation resistance tester is a fundamental device used to evaluate the integrity of insulation in electrical equipment, ensuring safety and reliability in various applications. This tester measures the resistance offered by insulation materials against electrical currents, helping to identify potential faults such as deteriorated insulation or moisture ingress that could lead to equipment failure or electrical hazards.

Joysticks are essential components in various industrial applications, from controlling heavy machinery to navigating automated systems. Over time, these joysticks can experience wear and tear, leading to malfunctions. Knowing how to fix a joystick switch can save you time and money, ensuring your operations run smoothly. ATO.com will give you a step-by-step guide to help you troubleshoot and repair a faulty joystick switch.

Photoelectric sensors utilize light beams emitted from a transmitter to detect the presence, absence, or distance of objects within their sensing range. They consist of two main components: the transmitter and the receiver. The transmitter emits a modulated light beam, often infrared or visible light, towards the target area. The receiver detects the reflected light or absence thereof, depending on the sensor's mode of operation. In this article, we will walk you through the wiring and testing process of ATO's M18 photoelectric sensor.

Variable frequency drive (VFD) is an essential component in industrial applications that controls the speed and torque of electric motors by varying the frequency and voltage supplied to the motor. In today's article, we're going to guide you through the process of setting up the frequency of the VFD to 400Hz. This adjustment is crucial for optimizing the performance of the variable frequency drive according to specific operational requirements.

Force gauges are universal measuring instruments used in almost all industries. As the name suggests, force gauges are used to measure force in push or pull tests. Force gauges have applications in research and development, production and quality laboratory environments. There are generally two main types of force gauges: mechanical force gauge and digital force gauge. Now, ATO automation will introduce you to the detailed use of a force gauge.

Density meters are used to measure the density of different liquids. They have a built-in digital temperature sensor. The medium temperature should be between 0 and 100°C or 0 and 150°C. They can measure different liquid contact materials.

Different types and uses of hipot testers may be different, but generally, the following maintenance tips can be used for safe pressure measurement. Through regular maintenance and care, the performance of the hipot tester can be ensured to be stable and its service life can be extended. It also helps to reduce downtime caused by equipment failure and improve work efficiency.

The maintenance of the foot switch is an important daily task that requires careful inspection, correct diagnosis, timely replacement of parts, and necessary cleaning and maintenance.

In actual use, various faults may be encountered, and the handling methods of these faults are crucial to ensure the normal operation of the tester. Below ATO Industrial Automation will discuss in detail the common faults of the insulating oil dielectric strength tester and their handling methods.

Welding station maintenance and upkeep is critical to ensuring welding quality and the long life of your equipment. It is recommended that operators be fully trained before taking up the job to ensure the correctness of the operation, help you improve welding efficiency and quality, and extend the service life of the equipment.

Hydraulic pullers are an ideal new tool to replace transmission pullers. Easy to operate, labor-saving, and not limited by the site. There are many types of hydraulic pullers, including integrated hydraulic pullers, separate hydraulic pullers, coupler-specific pullers, mobile hydraulic pullers, separate non-slip hydraulic pullers, and vehicle-mounted hydraulic pullers. Choosing the right puller depends on the task you want to complete and the environment in which you work.

Motor alarm is a type of sound and light alarm, also known as vibration alarm, which is a sound signal generator, mainly used for alarm, prompt and other occasions. It uses the built-in motor to remind the user that there is an abnormal situation in the device or room. It is usually composed of components such as batteries, circuit boards, vibration motors, etc.

AC current sensor, also known as AC current transducer, is a device used to detect alternating current (AC) flowing in a circuit. It senses the information of the measured AC current and transforms it into electrical signals or other required forms of information output according to certain rules, to meet the requirements of information transmission, processing, storage, display, recording, and control. It is the primary component for achieving automatic detection and control.

An AC motor is a device that converts electrical energy from alternating current into mechanical energy. Its main components include a stator and a rotor. The stator is the stationary part and usually contains windings and an iron core. Insulation check is very important for AC motors, and it is also a very important technical index in the operation and maintenance of electric motors. In practice, it not only protects against current leakage or short-circuiting but also ensures the safety of the operator, thus preventing damage to the motor. 

With the advancement of battery technology, the battery balancer has become an indispensable part of battery systems. Whether used in residential solar systems, electric vehicles, or industrial applications, selecting the appropriate battery balancer is crucial for the performance and lifespan of battery arrays. When choosing a battery balancer, there are several key factors to consider.

A DC current sensor is a device used to measure the flow of direct current (DC) in an electrical circuit. It works by detecting the magnetic field generated by the current passing through a conductor. This magnetic field induces a voltage or current in a secondary winding, which is proportional to the primary current. The sensor then converts this induced voltage or current into a measurable signal that can be read by instruments or control systems.
