Potentiometer

It is an electronic device which is operate on low voltage. It has three resistor terminal with sliding & rotating contact form that voltage regulate by resistor. This device used for measurement purpose in programming card & display.

Use of potentiometer

Potentiometers are rarely used to directly control significant amounts of power. Instead they are used to adjust the level of analog signals and as control inputs for electronic circuits. For example, a light dimmer uses a potentiometer to control the switching of a TRIAC and so indirectly to control the brightness of lamps.

Preset potentiometers are widely used throughout electronics wherever adjustments must be made during manufacturing or servicing.

User-actuated potentiometers are widely used as user controls, and may control a very wide variety of equipment functions. However they remain in many applications, such as volume controls and as position sensors.

multimeter

What is a digital multimeter? A  digital multimeter  is a test tool used to measure two or more electrical values—principally voltage (volts), current (amps) and resistance (ohms). It is a standard diagnostic tool for technicians in the electrical/electronic industries. Digital multimeters long ago replaced needle-based analog meters due to their ability to measure with greater accuracy, reliability and increased impedance. Fluke introduced its first digital multimeter in 1977. To better  understand  digital  multimeters,  it’s  helpful  to  become  clear  on  the  basics  of electricity.                       After  all,  digital multimeter  always  measure  some  aspect  of  electricity. In  the  case  of electricity,  that  force  might  be  a...

Annemometer

Annemometer is also known as wind speed meter. It is a measuring device.  It measure wind speed and it's direction. The term is derived from the Greek word  anemos , which means  wind , and is used to describe any wind speed instrument used in  meteorology . The first known description of an anemometer was given by  Leon Battista Alberti  in 1450. Connection For connection we need a wind speed sensor  & device for reading signal of sensor. First of we need a DC supply for activate sensor and device. Above picture it clear that wiring diagram. When a DC power supply connected with sensor and it blade run then in output we get signal. That signal connected in device. And device show result. Wind speed measure in m/s, kph, mph. Application Mostly wind speed meter used in industrial areas. And also it use in home.

Zoomlion Qy 50v Load chart free pdf download

A Chinese construction machinery manufacturer, having taken on the mission of contributing to our motherland through industry and through the great ambition of "broadening our vision by aiming high" for more than fifty years, we have taken one firm step after another on our way towards allowing "Made in China" to challenge the world standard. With steps restlessly marching forward and with a long, winding path covered by single individual strides for over half a century, each and every footprint made, burdened under heavy loads, demonstrates nothing but the strong demeanor and ambition that a climber shows while looking down upon everything from mountain peak. We have experienced innumerable glorious moments over the past fifty years, such as: showing our strength in the centennial Three Gorges Project, being highly praised for building the Antarctic Scientific Exploration Bases, challenging the extreme construction conditions on the Qinghai-Tibet Platea...
