All About Heavy Profile Gauges - Definition, Sizes, and Uses

  This term – “profile gauge” – has many different meanings. Each of those meanings relates to a unique type of measuring instruments or tools. Which tools to be precise? The ones that deal with the contours of different surfaces. Through this blog, you will get to know about the three types of profile gauges that are most commonly used. Also, the basic information about all these types is included with their uses. Types of Heavy Profile Gauges The three key types of profile gauges that are usually sold as measurement tools by the suppliers are: ●         Surface Profile Gauges ●         Contour Profile Gauges ●         Thread Profile Gauges Every gauge out of the three serves a unique purpose. Therefore, these gauges are not rightly interchangeable with each other.  In simple words, because their functions are different so any of them would not work well in ano...

Miniature Circuit Breaker (MCBs) - A Guide

  From what is an electrical MCB to how it works to what are different types of MCBs – this guide covers all the basic knowledge you need to have about Miniature Circuit Breakers. What are MCBs? MCBs are electrical switches that are automatically operated. A miniature circuit breaker is intended to provide safety to an electrical circuit when it gets excess current. This switch is designed for tripping while a short circuit or an overload takes place. Therefore, it prevents equipment failure and electrical faults. MCB is extensively used as an isolating component in domestic, industrial, and commercial settings. They are part of a much broader pack of circuit-breaking components that have more power. How Do Miniature Circuit Breakers Work? The miniature circuit breakers get triggered with over current. This happens whenever the electrical current exceeds a pre-designated safe current limit. So, MCBs make use of a comparatively robust mechanical mechanism that is spe...

How Does an Electrostatic Precipitator Work?

  Nobody likes smoke, does anyone? Whether it is a room with cigarette exhaust or a city with high pollution, it is a big no. All of us would prefer to breathe clean, cool, and fresh air. Manufacture industry is what provides food to a large number of people. It is unfortunate that because of lack of knowledge many assume that it is mandatory to deal with power-plant smokestacks. In reality, technology had provided an excellent solution to this problem. It has been more than a century since we have had the solution. What is it? Of course, the electrostatic smoke precipitators. They are also called scrubbers. These static-electric filters are super useful as they snatch away the ash and soot from the dirty air. Therefore, these devices greatly reduce pollution and help to keep the environment clean. Who Came Up with Electrostatic Smoke Precipitators? Dr Frederick Cottrell (1877–1948), in 1906, carried out the first experiments with this technology. In 1907,...
