MODIFIED CARRIER [7 records]

Record 1 2023-11-30

English

Subject field(s)
  • Telephone Services
  • Telecommunications
  • Commercial and Other Bodies (Law)
CONT

Carrier identification codes (CICs) are used to route and bill calls in the public switched telephone network. CICs are four-digit codes in the format XXXX, where X is any digit from 0 through 9.

OBS

Carrier identification codes in Canada are assigned according to the Industry Numbering Committee(INC) Carrier Identification Code Assignment Guideline, as accepted or modified by the Canadian Steering Committee on Numbering(CSCN) and in accordance with the CSCN CIC Adjunct.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Services téléphoniques
  • Télécommunications
  • Organismes commerciaux ou non (Droit)
CONT

Le code d'identification d'entreprise permet d'acheminer et de facturer le trafic de télécommunication des fournisseurs de services d'accès locaux à certains fournisseurs de services intercirconscriptions et d'autres services dans le réseau de télécommunication du plan de numérotage nord-américain.

  • Textiles: Preparation and Processing
CONT

Horizontal spindle machines may be rectangular in design, similar to hank dyeing machines, but modified to take frames, onto which yarn packages are inserted horizontally, or alternatively may be a horizontal autoclave into which is wheeled the carrier containing the yarn packages. Both types operate with high flow rate pumps, which are necessary to give good circulation of the dye liquor. These machines are usually used for bulky yarns, which are wound onto soft packages, again to increase dye liquor penetration.

  • Apprêt et traitements divers (Textiles)
CONT

Machines de teinture horizontales à clarinette appelées «armoires», similaires aux machines de teinture pour écheveaux, mais conçues différemment pour recevoir des supports sur lesquels les bobines de fil sont emboîtées horizontalement. Il peut également s'agir d'un autoclave horizontal, dans lequel on introduit un porte-matières supportant les bobines de fil. Dans les deux cas, les machines sont équipées de pompes à haut débit, nécessaires pour assurer une bonne circulation du bain de teinture. Ces machines sont habituellement utilisées pour teindre des fils gonflants, enroulés sur bobines molles, afin d’obtenir un meilleur taux de pénétration du bain de teinture.

Subject field(s)
  • Air Navigation Aids
CONT

Kinematic local area differential GNSS is a modified form of local area in which the corrections are in the form of satellite signal carrier phases, as opposed to just the code, thereby allowing the aircraft to employ interferometric principles for navigation.

Subject field(s)
  • Analytical Chemistry
CONT

Thermionic or Electron Impact Detector. In 1957, Ryce and Bryce described a sensitive ionization gauge based on the ionization potentials of vapors. It comprised a filament, a grid, and a plate. The potential difference between the filament and grid accelerated electrons which may ionize any gas in their path. If the grid potential is maintained at a level insufficient to ionize the helium carrier gas... no current flows in the plate circuit. If a potential difference of 18 V is maintained between the filament and the grid, compounds of lower ionization potential in the helium will be ionized and the positive ions produced will yield a cathode current, the current noted being a measure of the ion concentration. Into the modified ionizing chamber, operated at reduced pressure, a small fraction of the column effluent gas stream(less than 0. 5%) was allowed to flow into the gauge through a controlled leak. Over a 0. 02-l. 5 mm Hg pressure range, the sensitivity was approximately proportional to the pressure, and sensitivities in the range of 10[ minus superscript 12] mole were claimed.
