A single-phase isolation transformer is a transformer whose primary winding is a single-phase winding. The primary winding and secondary winding of a single-phase transformer are wound on the iron core. The primary winding is the AC voltage input terminal, and the secondary winding is the AC voltage output terminal. The output voltage of the secondary winding is proportional to the number of turns of the coil. A single-phase transformer can convert high-voltage power supply into single-phase low-voltage for use in various equipment. For example, AC 6600V high voltage can be converted into AC 220V low-voltage through a single-phase transformer to supply power for lighting or other equipment. The single-phase transformer has a simple structure, With the advantages of small size and low loss, it is suitable for use in low-voltage distribution lines (below 60Hz) with less load.

Blowers are equipment or devices which increase the velocity of air or gas when passed through equipped impellers. They are mainly used for flow of air/gas required for exhausting, aspirating, cooling, ventilating, conveying etc. Air blower machines are a simple and effective electrical device used in homes and industries to blow away dust from every nook and corner. For gadgets and electronics that have delicate parts that cannot be cleaned with a cloth, this is when you need air blowers to remove dust with its continuous air pressure. This durable and efficient machine saves a good amount of time and effort consumed in cleaning and dusting tasks.
An automatic transfer switch (ATS) is a device that automatically transfers a power supply from its primary source to a backup source when it senses a failure or outage in the primary source. When a failure occurs in a primary power system, the ATS invokes a standby power source, such as an uninterruptable power supply. An ATS can also start up more long-term backup power systems, such as local diesel generators, to run electric equipment until utility power is restored.
Shunt means parallel. In simple words, the capacitor is connected in parallel with a load or power supply is called shunt capacitor. The series and parallel combination of a no. of shunt capacitors is called shunt capacitor bank. So shunt capacitor is not a special device. It is a normal capacitor only, it is called a shunt capacitor because of its parallel connection with the load. Shunt capacitors are used in transmission lines, power systems, with inductive loads. So AC or non-polarized capacitors are used as shunt capacitors. For DC circuits or DC applications polarized capacitors are used.

The full name of RTD is Resistance Temperature Detector. RTD is a special kind of resistor whose resistance value increases as the temperature increases and decreases as the temperature decreases. RTD is used as sensor in industry to measure temperature, so RTD is also called "thermal resistance". RTDs are more linear than thermocouples and are the most accurate and stable temperature sensors available. But because the change of resistance takes time, its response speed is slow. At the same time, its price is relatively expensive, and it is suitable for occasions where there are certain requirements for accuracy and the cost control is not strict.
At present, with the continuous improvement of people's living, various industries pay more and more attention to the temperature and humidity management environment of product production, equipment and warehouse storage. Therefore, it is necessary to use the temperature data loggers. The temperature and humidity data logger measures the temperature and humidity parameters and stores them in the recorder according to predetermined time intervals or uploads them to the computer cloud platform through Bluetooth or USB. The data logger can be exported and analyzed to ensure that whether there are any incidents that endanger the safety of the product during the storage and shipping. However, which industries need temperature and humidity monitoring systems?
