Rockwell Automation, Inc. provides industrial automation power, control, and information solutions.
A conductive barrier that reduces the effect of external electrostatic and electromagnetic fields.
Industry:Automation
A temperature transducer comprising a closed circuit made of two different metals. If the two junctions are at different temperatures, an electromotive force is developed that is proportional to the temperature difference between the junctions.
Industry:Automation
The decision-making and data storage sections of a programmable controller or computer.
Industry:Automation
A conductor, usually composed of some element of carbon, serving to maintain an electrical connexion between stationary and moving parts of a machine (i.e.,commutator of a dc motor). This brush is mounted in a spring-loaded holder and positioned tangent to the commutator segments against which it “brushes.” Pairs of brushes are equally spaced around the circumference of the commutator.
Industry:Automation
A temporary, usually rectangular, bounded area on a CRT display that includes particular entities for entry, modification, or deletion.
Industry:Automation
The decrease in magnitude of a signal. The total attenuation on a fiber-optic cable is a function of the material and the length of the cable.
Industry:Automation
A configuration in which printed-circuit components are built with 2 parallel rows of pins.
Industry:Automation
A term for operator interface software that lets the operator monitor real-time data and perform real-time control functions.
Industry:Automation
The description of a bus, including its size and the function of each line. Some standardised bus structures are Multibus I, Multibus II, VAX, Q-bus, IBM PC, and the STD BUS.
