Most modern water turbines are installed in hydroelectric power stations to drive generators to produce electricity. In a hydroelectric power plant, water from the upstream reservoir is led to the turbine through a diversion pipe, which pushes the turbine runner to rotate and drive the generator to produce electricity. The water that has completed its work is discharged downstream through the tailrace pipeline. The higher the water head and flow rate, the greater the output power of the water turbine.

Selection of water turbine is an important task in the design of hydropower plant, and whether this problem is solved correctly or not has an important influence on the investment, construction speed, power generation and the amount of expected output of the hydropower plant, as well as on the degree of utilization of water energy resources during the whole period of operation, and the economy and flexibility of the operation of the hydropower plant.

A float switch is a commonly used water level controller, which controls the water level by the up and down movement of the float. The principle of the float switch is to utilize the principle of buoyancy, when the liquid level rises, the float will rise with it, when the float rises to a certain height, the switch will be triggered, to control the switch of the pump or the valve to achieve the purpose of controlling the water level. This article mainly introduces the installation method and adjustment method of the float switch.

A cordless circular saw is a portable power tool used for cutting various materials, primarily wood, but also plastics, metal, and other materials.

In the world of precision measurement and quality control, various tools and instruments play a crucial role. One such tool that has gained prominence in recent years is the digital dial indicator. If you've ever wondered, "What is a digital dial indicator?" or are curious about its applications and advantages, you've come to the right place. In this blog post, we will explore the fundamental aspects of digital dial indicators.

Micrometer is also known as spiral micrometer, centimetre card, it is an instrument that can accurately measure the length and radius of an object, its accuracy is accurate to 0.01mm, more accurate than vernier calipers, it consists of a fixed sleeve and a rotatable screw, when measuring the outer diameter of an object, it will be put into a slot, no matter how the screw rotates when it is not able to move forward, it means that it shows the exact length of the object.

Turbidity meter is an instrument used to measure the concentration of suspended particles or the degree of suspended matter in a liquid. It is widely used in water quality monitoring, drinking water testing, pharmaceuticals, food production and other fields. In this article, ATO shop will guide you on how to use a turbidity meter properly!

A micrometer is a highly accurate measuring tool used to measure the dimensions of an object. The micrometer derives its name from the fact that its measurement accuracy is usually measured in thousandths of an inch or thousandths of a millimetre. It is a common tool used in machine building, engineering, manufacturing and quality control to measure the precise dimensions of small objects. ATO Industrial Automation has organised the prices of all micrometers on sale for you so that you can choose the one you want more quickly.

A micrometer, also known as an index caliper, is a measuring tool that is mainly used for precision measurements. It is capable of measuring the length, thickness, width, diameter and other dimensions of an object. A micrometer usually consists of a frame, a vernier, a set screw and a moving screw. Micrometers of different sizes have different measuring ranges, accuracies, and prices.So how to choose a micrometer correctly? ATO Store will offer you a series of reference opinions.

A corded circular saw is a power tool that is used to work on cutting wood, metal, plastic and other materials. Its main feature is that it has a circular saw blade that usually rotates at a high speed in order to efficiently cut a variety of materials. In this article, ATO industrial automation will list the price of corded circular saws for your reference.

Turbidity meters can be divided into portable, desktop, and online turbidity meters. Desktop is generally used for laboratory turbidity detection; Portable and online turbidity meters are generally used for on-site testing. Portable for discontinuous detection, online turbidity meter for continuous and on-site turbidity monitoring. It can continuously monitor turbidity in real-time and is generally used in waterworks, sewage plants, channels, water conservancy facilities, flood control monitoring, water tanks, and other places. ATO Store has listed the prices of turbidimeters according to different turbidity ranges, which can help you choose the right turbidimeter for your needs.

Circular saw is a mechanized tool that uses a single-phase series excitation motor as the power, and then drives the circular saw blade through a transmission mechanism to perform continuous and uniform rotation motion for sawing operations. Circular saws are suitable for sawing wood, fiberboard, plastic, flexible cables, and similar materials. The circular saw adopts a portable appearance structure, mainly composed of a motor, gearbox, protective cover, adjustment mechanism and base plate, handle, switch, non- reconnectable plug, circular saw blade, etc.

The CAN BUS converter can convert CAN bus data into optical signals for long-distance transmission. It is a common remote CAN relay that can avoid equipment burnout, strong electromagnetic induction, and interference caused by high voltage due to different node potentials. Effectively solving the problems of electromagnetic interference, ground loop interference, and lightning damage, and greatly improving the reliability, security, and confidentiality of data communication, saving the cost of lightning surge protection equipment when using copper wire. The CAN BUS converter is widely used in various industrial field renovations, long-distance communication between the main control room and buildings, long-distance distributed communication systems, industrial control, and other fields.

According to the different styles of fiber optic connectors, CAN BUS converters can be divided into many subcategories. Common fiber optic connector styles include SC/ST/FC,USB etc. So, how do we choose this type of equipment?

The CAN bus converter, also known as the CAN fiber optic converter, is a device that converts CAN bus signals into fiber optic signals, which are then parsed into CAN bus signals. In the process of transmitting data, it not only ensures the accuracy of information, but also works in pairs with CAN fiber optic repeaters to extend communication distance. It has small size, powerful functions, fast transmission speed, and high reliability and safety. They play a crucial role in industrial control systems, automotive electronics, aerospace, and other applications, especially when long-distance, high noise anti-interference, and electrical isolation are required.

CAN Bus converters are devices that convert fiber optic signals into other types of signals (such as electrical signals) or convert other types of signals into fiber optic signals. Here are the general usage methods for CAN Bus converters sorted out by ATO Store for you.
