The advantages of indoor high voltage vacuum circuit breaker are not only oil-free equipment, but also long electrical life. It has mechanical life, large breaking insulation capacity, strong continuous breaking capacity, small volume, light weight, frequent operation, fire free, less operation and maintenance, etc. And they are quickly recognized by the operation, maintenance and technical personnel of the power department. The quality of some high voltage vacuum circuit breakers is not stable enough, the current carrying voltage is on the high side during operation and some vacuum interrupters still have air leakage. With the wide application of vacuum circuit breaker, faults also occur from time to time. The author analyzes the common faults of vacuum circuit breaker and gives treatment methods.

Hydraulic motors are rotary actuators that convert hydraulic pressure supplied by the hydraulic pump into mechanical energy (such as torque and speed) applied to its output shaft. Hydraulic motors can be classified in different ways. Based on different rated revolving speed, there are high-speed and low-speed motors. And in terms of configuration, there are mainly four types of hydraulic motors among others, namely, gear motors, vane motors, radial plunger motors and axial plunger motors.

The thyristor power controller adopts thyristor (SCR or TRIAC) as the switching component, namely, a non-contact switch that can quickly and accurately control the closing time. It serves as an essential terminal equipment for power control designed for high precision and high dynamic indicators. It is worth noting that different loads and constraints of the operation environment determine different control modes and require various supporting equipment. Among control modes there are phase angle control, distributed crossover and time proportional zero crossover. In actual use, SCR power controllers can be sorted into single-phase SCR power controllers and three-phase SCR power controllers in accordance with their load types, power supply types and power supply voltage levels. So, how should we choose the right type of power controller and bring its optimum performance into play with minimal damage? The following passages will give you the answer.

A power regulator is a panel-mounted power adjustment unit that uses a thyristor (also called Silicon Controlled Rectifier or SCR) and its trigger control circuit to adjust the load power.

Safety switch is a switch that prevents people from entering a dangerous area before all safety conditions are met. Also it is a device that monitors current in various applications. Safety switches can be used in major equipment applications (conveyor belts, production line equipment, heavy equipment) and electrical protection of whole system. The safety switch works by monitoring the current and detecting electrical faults, which means that in case of leakage, short circuit, overload, the safety switch will cut off the power supply of the faulty system almost immediately (within a few milliseconds).

The air blower is mainly composed of the following six parts: motor, air filter, blower body, air chamber, base (and oil tank), drip nozzle. The blower operates eccentrically on the rotor offset in the cylinder, and changes the volume between the blades in the rotor slot to suck in, compress, and discharge air. During operation, the pressure difference of the blower is used to automatically send the lubrication to the drip nozzle and drip into the cylinder to reduce friction and noise, while keeping the gas in the cylinder from returning. This type of air blower is also called a sliding vane blower. There are many types of air blowers, mainly divided into the following categories.

Bandwidth is one of the most important indexes of oscilloscope. The bandwidth of analog oscilloscope is a fixed value, while the bandwidth of digital oscilloscope has two kinds: analog bandwidth and digital real-time bandwidth. The maximum bandwidth that digital oscilloscope can achieve by using sequential sampling or random sampling technology for repeated signals is the digital real-time bandwidth of oscilloscope. The digital real-time bandwidth is related to the maximum digital frequency and waveform reconstruction technology factor K (digital real-time bandwidth = maximum digital rate / k), which is generally not directly given as an index. 

Vibration meter is an instrument used to measure the peak value, peak-to-peak value, average value or root mean square value of vibration such as velocity, acceleration and displacement. The vibration meter can be applied in mechanical manufacturing, electric metallurgy, general aviation etc. The main parts of this instrument are integral differential circuit, amplifying circuit, voltage detector and meter head. The integral differential circuit is used to complete the integral differential operation between the above vibration quantities. Generally, integral and differential operational amplifiers can be used, low-pass filters and high pass filters can also be used to complete integral differential operations. However, we should pay attention to this instrument's application frequency range when we are using it for calculation. The vibration meter can only obtain the total intensity (vibration level) of the vibration, but cannot obtain other information, so its scope of using is limited.
