AMPLITUDE FILTERING [4 records]

Record 1 2021-02-02

English

Subject field(s)
  • Amplifiers (Electronics)
CONT

Lock-in amplifiers were invented in the 1930's and commercialized in the mid 20th century as electrical instruments capable of extracting signal amplitudes and phases in extremely noisy environments... They employ a homodyne detection scheme and low-pass filtering to measure a signal' s amplitude and phase relative to a periodic reference.

CONT

Noise Suppression Filter. The patent describes a simple and inexpensive device for filtering undesirable high frequency noise from analog data outputs of a data processing system, which operates in two different modes and switches automatically from one to the other depending on the rate of change of data functions and on data transient amplitude with respect to full scale.

  • Électroacoustique
CONT

L'invention concerne un filtre antiparasites à particules permettant de supprimer du bruit non souhaité par augmentation de la résistance spécifique de la ferrite MnZn et l'amélioration d'une caractéristique haute fréquence.

Subject field(s)
  • Amplifiers (Electronics)
  • Electronic Measurements
  • Thermoelectricity and Thermoelectronics
  • Burners and Steamfitting
DEF

The part of the flame detection system which increases the flame signal to a magnitude sufficient to pull in the flame relay in the flame safeguard control. The amplifier may be a permanent part of the flame safeguard control, or it may be a replaceable, plug-in unit.

CONT

Hegwein pilot burners are compact, sturdy, and feature a modular design. Models are available with a built-in ignition transformer, or with both flame signal amplifier and ignition transformer.

OBS

Flame signal: the current measured at the meter jack of a flame signal amplifier in a flame safeguard control. The current is produced by the flame detector when it senses a flame.

OBS

Conventional multi-burner scanners have relied on the strength or amplitude of the flame signal to discriminate between burner flame-on and burner flame-off. This is most often done by using the amplitude output of the flame signal after bandpass or highpass filtering.

DEF

The current measured at the meter jack of a flame signal amplifier in a flame safeguard control. The current is produced by the flame detector when it senses a flame.

CONT

The Keyboard Status Display Module [Honeywell burner control] instantly identifies complete information for servicing including interlock, limit and fuel circuit status. It also enables you to check terminal voltage status and read flame signal strength in dc volts, eliminating the need to use a meter.

OBS

Conventional multi-burner scanners have relied on the strength or amplitude of the flame signal to discriminate between burner flame-on and burner flame-off. This is most often done by using the amplitude output of the flame signal after bandpass or highpass filtering.
