Device Protected for Short circuit, Under Voltage, OverVoltage, Transient Voltage&Electro Static Discharge(ESD). Digital Calibration can be done using both Dry Gas method and Wet Gas method. ...
However, low humidity levels can also be detrimental to IT equipment as this creates an environment whereby static charges can build up more easily. When this static electricity is discharged, components such as the capacitors and transistors found in solid state devices can fail. ...
At Environics, all of our units are custom built for our customers’ specific needs. Customers who need to dilute/mix explosive gases often come to us for help creating highly specialized systems. Most often, this is in order to calibrate gas detectors or for research or calibration purposes. To meet these unique needs, Environics designed a modified version of our Series 4040 gas dilution ...
An analysis done after EPA’s inspection revealed a potential for fire or explosion resulting from a buildup of flammable vapor and the introduction of a spark from either static discharge or improperly-rated electrical equipment. The agreement settles charges of 10 violations of the Clean Air Act at the Massachusetts facility as well as one charge of ...
Often, customers come to us looking for a gas flow management system to fit a very particular set of criteria. In some cases, this requires just minor customization of a current Environics model. In other cases, a completely unique design is required. Today, I share with you one interesting example. Although I focus on the first system we designed, we have since made similar systems for other ...
As liquids or vapors pass through pipes or hoses, they generate static electricity and a static discharge can easily ignite flammable vapors in the area. ...
The curve in Figure 1 represents a system in which there is no static head. The curve in Figure 2 shows the loss curve displaced upward an amount equal to the static head. ...
