    Butterfly Valve Basics: Working Principles, Features and Applications

    Butterfly valve, also known as flap valve, is a kind of regulating valve with simple structure. Butterfly valve can be used for switch control of low-pressure pipeline medium. It means that the closing member (disc or butterfly plate) is a disc, which rotates around the valve shaft to achieve opening and closing of a valve. Today, we are going to introduce what is a butterfly valve to you. We hope that you can have a general idea about it after reading.

    What is a Timer Relay?

    ATO time relay is a very important component in the electrical control system. In many control systems, time relays are required to implement time delay control. It is an automatic control electrical appliance that uses the principle of electromagnetic or mechanical action to delay the closing or breaking of contacts. Its characteristic is that there is a delay from the time when the attracting coil gets the signal to the action of the contact, which is generally used for the motor starting process control with time as a function.

    Display of Welding Fume Extractor

    A fume extractor is a system utilizing a fan to pull fumes and particulate into a filtration system cleaning the air of harmful chemicals and particulates. Industrial processes create fumes or particles such as welding, sanding, grinding, spraying, powder filling, and chemical applications. 

    High Speed BLDC Motor Performance Test

    BLDC consists of motor and drive, which is a typical mechatronic product. It is composed of permanent magnet rotor, multi-pole winding stator and position sensor. Brushless DC motors (BLDC) feature high efficiency and excellent controllability, and are widely used in many applications. The BLDC motor has power-saving advantages relative to other motor types. Motor above 5000 rpm is a high speed motor, that is, brushless DC motor above 5000 rpm can be called high speed brushless DC motor. 

    How does Lighting Contactor Work?

    Lighting contactors are specifically designed to provide central control of high power lighting loads or motors. The lighting contactor can realize the remote control of the circuit and can control the high voltage with low voltage.

    How to Use a DC Vibration Motor?

    The vibration motor is an excitation source that combines the power source and the vibration source. A set of adjustable eccentric blocks are installed at each end of the rotor shaft, and the excitation force is obtained by the centrifugal force generated by the high-speed rotation of the shaft and the eccentric block. The vibration motor has many advantages, including high utilization rate, low energy consumption, low noise and long service life. Next we will introduce how to use a DC vibration motor.
