Timer element
A distinction is made between: Binary timer elements: Switching element, which passes on binary input signals at a different time; Delay element: Timer element, which reflects the change of the input
Step diagram control
Form of process-dependent workflow control, in which the switching conditions depend only on position-dependent signals of the controlled system (according to DIN 19 237).
Rotary pipe joint
Element for connecting pipes that permits rotation at the joint (Figure D 36) . Rotary pipe joints are required wherever hydraulic energy must be routed from a stationary part of a machine to a moving
Digital cylinders (with several positions)
Cylinder design that is equipped with several, mostly binary tiered pistons that can be operated in any combination. Therefore with n pistons 2n-1 positions are obtained with a positioning accuracy th
Carrier sense multiple access with collision detection (CSMA/CD)
Monitoring process for buses with access without a defined sequence. Access collisions are detected. fieldbus
Binary
Two specific, mutually exclusive states, e.g. yes/no, correct/incorrect, on/off, O/ L or 0/1. The binary numerical system has the base 2. With n binary signals it is possible to define 2n states. Ther
One-way trip
Device for actuation in only one direction. In the other direct there is no actuation (CETOP RP 100).
Output module
Output module for a signal transfer element, e.g. main hydraulic stage in a proportional valve.
