The end opposite the coupling or driving pulley (NEMA). This is sometimes called the opposite pulley end (O.P.E.) or commutator end (C.E.).
Industry:Automation
I/O connected to a processor across a backplane. See local I/O and extended local I/O
Industry:Automation
A description of two or more areas, each of which is adjacent to another so that there is no separation between any parts of the total.
Industry:Automation
A two-electrode semiconductor device with a voltage-dependant non-linear resistance that drops markedly as the applied voltage is increased. It is used to suppress transient voltage surges.
Industry:Automation
I/O connected to a processor across a parallel link, thus limiting its distance from the processor. (See local I/O and processor-resident local I/O.)
Industry:Automation
A design technique applied to electrical equipment and wiring for hazardous locations. It is based on limiting electrical and thermal energy to a level below that required to ignite hazardous atmospheric mixtures.
Industry:Automation
A type of communication protocol where mastership changes from station to station on an event basis. Mastership contention is resolved with a polling technique.
Industry:Automation
The entire body of data that has to do with one or more related subjects. Typically, it consists of a collection of data files.
Industry:Automation
A deviation from a straight line expressed in percentage of full scale. For an ideal A/D or D/A conversion, a graph of the digital values plotted against the corresponding analogue values form a straight line.
Industry:Automation
A type of control technology that uses logic elements based on the interaction of jets of fluid.
