Trips employing auxiliary trip units include the Loss of Load trip and the APD – High trip. The Loss of Load trip is a contact input from the Electro Hydraulic Control System control oil pressure on each of the four high pressure stop valves. … 10. Loss of Load. The Loss of Load(turbine stop valve(TSV) control oil pressure) trip is anticipatory for the loss of heat removal capabilities of the secondary system following a turbine trip. The Loss of Load trip prevents lifting the pressurizer saftey valves, PORVs and MSSVs in the event of a turbine generator trip. Thus, the trip minimizes the pressure and temperature transients on the reactor by initiating a trip well before reaching the Pressurizer Pressure – High trip and pressurizer safety valve setpoints. The four RPS Loss of Load reactor trip channels receive their input from sensors mounted on the high pressure TSV actuators. Since there are four high pressure TSVs, one actuator per valve and one sensor per actuator, each sensor sends its signal to a different RPS channel. When the turbine trips, control oil is dumped from the high pressure TSVs. When the control oil pressure drops to the appropriate setpoint, a reactor trip signal is generated.  1, record 7, English, - load%20reactor%20trip%20channel

The Great Western Railway automatic warning system developed circa 1906 is very similar to the British Rail one, the main difference being that is used a contact ramp rather than non-contact magnets. This ramp was located on the approach to the distant signal, and pushed up slightly higher than the level of the rail on a plunger mounted on the engine. If the ramp was energized, that gave the green signal. If the ramp was de-energized, that gave the yellow signal.  2, record 12, English, - contact%20ramp

A pneumatic rate-of-rise spot detector consists of a small dome-shaped air chamber with a flexible metal diaphragm in the base. A small metering hole allows air to enter and exit the chamber during normal rise and fall of atmospheric temperature and barometric pressure. In the heat of a fire, however, the air within the chamber expands faster than it can escape through the metering hole. This expansion causes the pressure within the chamber to increase, forcing the metal diaphragm against contact points in the alarm circuit. An alarm signal to the system control unit results. This type of detector is most often combined in one unit that also has fixed-temperature capability.  1, record 19, English, - pneumatic%20rate%2Dof%2Drise%20spot%20detector

Le détecteur ponctuel thermovélocimétrique pneumatique est constitué d'une petite chambre aérothermique en forme de dôme et d'un diaphragme en métal flexible situé dans la base. Un petit trou permet à l'air d'entrer et de sortir de la chambre aérothermique lors des fluctuations normales de la température et de la pression barométrique. Toutefois, sous l'effet de la chaleur dégagée par un incendie, l'air qui se trouve dans la chambre aérothermique se dilate plus rapidement et ne peut pas s'échapper par le trou. Cette dilatation entraîne une augmentation de la pression à l'intérieur de la chambre aérothermique et force le diaphragme de métal à toucher les points de contact du circuit d'alarme. Un signal d'alarme est alors déclenché à l'unité de contrôle du système. Ce type de déclencheur est souvent combiné à un dispositif qui est également thermostatique.  1, record 19, French, - d%C3%A9tecteur%20ponctuel%20thermov%C3%A9locim%C3%A9trique%20pneumatique
