A plug valve is a right-angle rotary motion manual valve. It uses a cylindrical or conical plug (plug disc) to allow or prevent straight-through flow through the body. Plug valves provide a straight-through passage through a port so that fluid can flow through the open plug with minimal turbulence. Flow can be fully open or fully closed in either direction.

Plug valves have been used in many different fluid services. They perform well in slurry applications. They are used as on/off shutoff valves in airtight service. They are used in air, gas and steam service, natural gas and oil piping systems, food processing, non-abrasive slurries, vacuum, pharmaceutical service, and vacuum to high pressure applications. They are suitable for on-off valves, diverter service and moderate throttling. Originally, plug valves were intended to replace gate valves because, compared to gate valves, plug valves have a quarter-turn action and can be easily opened and closed against the flow.

An alarm is an electronic product that reminds or warns us in the form of sound, light, air pressure, etc. that we should take certain actions to prevent the consequences of an event. Alarms are divided into motor alarms and electronic alarms. This blog will introduce motor alarms in detail. A motor alarm is a special alarm directly driven by an electric motor. It converts electrical energy into mechanical energy to make a loud sound. It is usually composed of a motor, a rotor, a circuit board, and a housing. ATO's motor alarm types include wind screw motor alarms, explosion-proof motor alarms, and motor driven siren alarms. 

A hydraulic cylinder is a mechanical device that achieves linear motion by pushing a fluid (usually hydraulic oil) through a closed container. This device usually consists of a cylinder, a piston and a rod connected to it. The working principle of a hydraulic cylinder is based on a pipeline system with hydraulic oil, which exerts force on the pressure of the liquid to move the piston inside the cylinder.

Signal relays are commonly used devices in automatic control systems, usually used to connect and disconnect circuits to issue control commands and reflect equipment status. They are important components that constitute automatic control and remote control circuits. Signal relays can be classified according to the nature of the relay's operating current, operating principle, physical properties, operating speed, contact structure, and reliability of operation.

The clamp meter is a portable instrument that can directly measure the AC and DC of a circuit without disconnecting the circuit. Clamp meter is easy to use and widely used in electrical maintenance. For example, a clamp ammeter can be used to measure the operating current of a running AC motor, thereby easily understanding its working conditions when there is a load. ATO.com will introduce the main classifications of clamp ammeters to help you better understand the different types and applications of clamp meters.

Steam traps are devices used in industrial settings to remove condensate (water) and non-condensable gases from steam systems while preventing the escape of live steam. There are several types of steam traps, each with its own working principle and application. Here are the main types of steam traps.

Potential transformer is a very common electrical equipment, its role is to transform the high voltage proportional relationship into 100V or lower level of standard secondary voltage for protection, measurement, and instrumentation devices. There are many types of voltage transformers, and different applications use different voltage transformers, according to different classification rules voltage transformer classification is also different. The following will introduce what types of voltage transformers.

Circular saw is a mechanized tool that uses a single-phase series excitation motor as the power, and then drives the circular saw blade through a transmission mechanism to perform continuous and uniform rotation motion for sawing operations. Circular saws are suitable for sawing wood, fiberboard, plastic, flexible cables, and similar materials. The circular saw adopts a portable appearance structure, mainly composed of a motor, gearbox, protective cover, adjustment mechanism and base plate, handle, switch, non- reconnectable plug, circular saw blade, etc.

Jack is the simplest lifting equipment with a small lifting height (less than 1m). It has two types: mechanical and hydraulic. There are two types of mechanical jacks: rack type and screw type. Due to their small lifting capacity, they are laborious to operate and are generally only used for mechanical maintenance work and are not applicable during bridge repair. Hydraulic jacks have a compact structure, stable operation, and self-locking function, making them widely used. Its disadvantages are limited lifting height and slow lifting speed. Jacks are mainly used in factories, mines, transportation and other departments as vehicle repairs and other lifting and support work. Its structure is lightweight, sturdy, flexible and reliable, and can be carried and operated by one person. As a widely used tool, the jack is cast with the highest quality materials, ensuring the quality and service life of the jack. Today, ATO will introduce the basic classification of jacks.

The hoist is a compound sliding horse used to lift objects to a relatively low height, commonly known as a "chain block", and is a mechanical device used to lift and lower heavy objects. And the hoist is a small lifting tool with simple structure and convenient carrying. It is particularly convenient to use it in temporary chains and mobile locations, such as factories, mines, construction sites, docks, warehouses, etc., to lift small equipment and carry out equipment installation and repair work. There are various classification methods for hoists based on different product characteristics and application scenarios.

A inclinometer sensor is a device used to measure the tilt angle of an object. The principle is based on the effects of changes in resistance, capacitance, and magnetic induction in physics. Inclinometer sensors are often used for precise measurement of changes in the horizontal angle of objects. They can be used to measure the inclination of the measured plane relative to the horizontal position, as well as the parallelism and perpendicularity of the two components; It has become an indispensable and important measuring instrument in fields such as bridge erection, railway laying, civil engineering, oil drilling, aviation and navigation, industrial automation, intelligent platforms, and mechanical processing.

Rigid couplings are an essential component in mechanical engineering, connecting two shafts to transmit power and torque while maintaining precise alignment. These couplings are designed to eliminate relative motion between shafts, ensuring efficient power transmission and reducing wear and tear on machinery. They have many advantages, including simple structure, easy assembly, convenient maintenance, low cost, high torque capacity, torsional stiffness, and zero backlashes. These couplings do not have the ability to cushion and compensate for the relative displacement of the two axes, requiring the two axes to be installed in strict alignment. But the structure is simple, low manufacturing cost, easy to install, dismantle, maintenance, can ensure that the two axes have a high degree of centering, transfer torque is larger, so widely used.

There are several types of rigid couplings available, each with its own unique design and applications. In this article, we will explore some of the most common types of rigid couplings used in various industrial settings.

A rocker switch is a common type of electronic switch used to control the connection and disconnection of a circuit. It works based on a movable rocker, and when the rocker is moved in different directions, the switch opens or closes in different positions. Rocker switches are widely used in various electronic devices and circuits to control different functions.

Also known as a boat switch, seesaw switch, IO switch, or power switch, its structure is the same as the knob switch, just change the knob handle into a boat shape. Boat-shaped switches are often used as power switches for electronic equipment, and their contacts are divided into single-pole, single-throw double-pole, double-throw, and other types of switches, and some switches also have indicator lights. Based on their characteristics and uses, rocker switches can be categorized into a variety of types. The following are some common types of rocker switches and their detailed descriptions.
