Vane pump
Vane pumps operate according to the Positive displacement principle . The moving vanes, which are guided radially in a rotor and are supported in an eccentric stroke ring (stator), create an increasin
Flip flop
Fast, bistable memory element for saving 1 bit. A number of flip flops connected in series are used as a shift register.
Bistable (flip flop) valve
Bistable switching element in which the switching state last used is retained also after the removal of the input signal (memory action).
Ultra fine filter
Compressed air filters that can retain particles of dirt down to 0.01 μm. This includes fluid particles of this size (e.g. aerosols), and also bacteria and viruses.
Fine control of flow
The controllability of very small flow rates in continuously adjustable valves requires special measures on the control edges . In servo valves straight control edges with high precision are used (zer
Precision throttle
Throttle valve that due to suitable formation of the control edge (e.g. by means of notches) has very good resolution in the low flow range.
Error
An error is present if (a) feature(s) of a part is/are outside the defined limits or limit pattern (according to DIN 267). Not every error automatically signifies a defect on the machine (system) (DIN
Error tolerance
Statement of the insensitivity to errors/failures of computers that must operate “non-stop”. Error tolerance is achieved by means of a redundant system tailored to the computer in which the sub-system
Error tolerance range
Bandwidth each side of the ideal characteristic curve in a measuring device that contains a systematic error as well as the random errors, provided it can be estimated (Figure F 6) . The description o
Error-tolerant computer
Computer with excess capacity, i.e. with redundant component configuration in which a replacement component becomes active as soon a part fails. Originally only used in large computers, today so-calle
