Rockwell Automation, Inc. provides industrial automation power, control, and information solutions.
A device that converts one form of energy to another (e.g., mechanical to electrical). When a transducer is actuated by signals from one system or medium, it can supply a related signal to the other system or medium. A transducer may be a sensor that converts mechanical energy to electrical energy. A transducer may be an actuator that converts electrical energy to mechanical energy.
Industry:Automation
A unit or assembly of units or sections, and associated fittings, forming a rigid structural system used to support cables and raceways. A cable tray system may include ladders, troughs, channels, solid-bottom trays, and other similar structures.
Industry:Automation
The interval between observations in a periodic sampling control system.
Industry:Automation
A unit that includes an externally operable circuit disconnecting means and branch-circuit overcurrent protection, principally used for non-motor loads. Two sets of externally operable circuit means, each with branch-circuit overcurrent protection, may be mounted in a single compartment to form a dual unit (as defined in NEMA Standard Pub. No. ICS 2, 1988).
Industry:Automation
The interval of time between initiation of an input change or stimulus and the start of the resulting observable response.
Industry:Automation
A device that passes a signal or a range of signals and eliminates all others.
Industry:Automation
A unit, such as a programmable controller or relay panel, that controls machine or process elements.
Industry:Automation
The largest voltage allowed at either input terminal of a differential analog input with respect to ground.
