Block diagram
The term block diagram should no longer be used, instead signal flow diagram should be used DIN 44 300 part 4.
Test conditions
Before any evaluation of measured values of a measured variable , a test should be conducted as to whether the measurements have been taken under the same test conditions and independently of one anot
Annular gear pump/motor
Special form of internal gear pump , in which no sealing sickle is required, as the seal between the fixed gear ring and the rotor (planetary gear) is directly possible through the suitable design of
Limit signal
Binary output signal from a limit monitor (DIN 19 237).
Active sensor
Sensor that, under load, outputs a voltage that it generates internally (e.g. thermocouple). It requires a DC amplifier to amplify the signal. Opposite: passive sensor
Elastomers
Material that can be deformed elastically, that is it can be stretched to a significant extent and after relief it will quickly and practically completely return to its initial shape. Elastomers compr
Male fitting
Pipe connection that can be undone and that is designed at one end to screw into a device bore ( pipe fitting ).
Damped natural oscillation
The damped natural oscillation of a system (e.g. spring-mass system or control circuit) is formed by oscillations or aperiodic movements that the system makes after external stimuli cease, i.e. when t
Pressure control
Change in the pressure in a device or a system as a function of pre-defined control signals. The pressure control can be undertaken by switching processes or continuously.
