Your question is a little vague so I'll list a few applications. Aircraft instruments, piston and turbine engines, barometers, steam engines,

they make equipment that runs on sensors-you start with your foot and a pad and when you release it starts your time-there is a sensor at the other end that stops your time-where to get them I'm not sure-you could try eastbay

"Accurately" is a difficult term; you don't state how accurately.  However, when I was working on electric vehicles, we had the same problem, and got a special sort of GPS (Global Positioning Satellite) Receiver, called a survey logger.  This, now that SA is ancient history, should be accurate to a few meters, for position, if mounted correctly.  It will take a log of the position, at rates of up to 1Hz, if you get the right kit, and then taking the derivative of the position can give you speed, a second derivative gives acceleration.\n\nALTERNATELY if the acceleration is high (as in a crash), then you need to mount an accelerometer, or a set of tri-axis accelerometers.  The signal from these can often be logged to a laptop computer.\n\nNot a definitive answer; hope this points you in the right direction.

Is primarily used for is dynamics control, and the limiter as a guard against signal clipping.\n\nIntroduction,\nA compressor is a device whose output level can be made to change at a different rate to it's input level; sounds interesting but not very useful you might think. What this means is that in contrast to most pieces of audio equipment which strive for a linear response (i.e. when the input signal doubles in level, so does the output), the compressor can be configured for example so that when the input level rises by say 10dB (over a certain threshold) the corresponding output level might only go up by 5dB. This ratio is configuable from almost unity i.e. 1.5:1 (a 1.5dB increase in input level giving a 1dB increase in output) to 6:1 for a compressor, and say 8:1 to, to 20:1 (a 20dB increase in input giving a 1 dB increase in output) for a limiter. The only difference between the two being the compression ranges over which they operate.\n\nFor example when recording a vocal track to the multitrack, the singer might be giving a great performance, but the level of their singing could be wildly different between the verse and the chorus. Aside from doing the obvious and asking them to try and sing at a more consistent level, which you should still do (it will always sound more natural), the compressor can be used to even out the dynamic range and so give a more consistent level on the tape.\n\nThe limiter might be used to guard against excessively loud transient peaks when recording say a drum kit.\n\n\nFundamentals,\nOnce the compression level ratio has been set there are a three other main parameters to be set on the compressor. \n\nattack \nrelease \nthreshold \nAttack and release are simply controls for a simple envelope which can be applied to the compressed signal, and affect how the compressor acts. Attack defines how quickly the compressor reacts to an input signal, a fast attack time of say 10 microseconds could be used to prevent signal clipping because any high-level transients will be rapidly controlled. Release defines the speed with which the compressor returns the output signal to it's uncompressed level.\n\nThreshold is the input level at which compression starts to take effect, i.e. all signals above the threshold get compressed while all those below pass through unaltered. However this parameter is affected by the attack and release envelope

1-thermostat: It senses water temperature and deflects if the water is hot enough, causing a way open for water to circulate around engine cool the engine down.\n\n2- A sensor for battery resource which say to generator when to charge the battery.\n\n3- A sensor for oil level, you should get out of car \nand bring it out from oil tank and watch it, (oil gauge)\n\n4- Oil pressure sensor: alarms if oil pressure is dropped.\n\n5- Back gear light: turns the back gear lamp on if sense the gear is for back.\n\n6- Door opening: alarms if a door is open.\n\n7- Air bag: a mechanical sensor for impact.\n\n8- Gas tank: senses the amount of gas in the tank and say\n it.\n\n9- speed: a digital or mechanical sensor which can say the\n Amount of speed.\n\n10- Rpm: a digital or mechanical sensor which can say how fast is engine turning.

if you're talking shaft out of balance you need an accelerometer\nother two look for steps in something, as in something is there or not there.\nThe accelerometer measures force

Umm there is this one company, Bauer Compressors or something like that but I don't know their website. I hear that the compressors are really expensive though, definately not worth it if you don't own a field

It depends on what data you want to collect.  Cycle time?  Temperature?  Pressure?\n\nAll of these can be done with aftermarket sensors and data acquistion equipment.  If you do not have the expertise in-house to implement something like this, I would suggest that you call up either your molding machine rep for some referrals or a systems integrator.  Either should be able to help you.

If the 20A fuse is the size that is designed for the machine, then something is wrong with the machine.\n\nMost likely, either accumulated dirt, or worn out parts, or both, are causing the load on the motor to be much higher than designed. If you continue to operate the compressor in this way you will burn out the motor. I looked a little bit for on-line info about the compressor you mentioned but could not find it. If it is old, and replacement parts are not available, you may need to replace the compressor.\n\nOne possible transient cause could be a much lower than normal supply voltage - a brownout. If this is happening, the motor will draw more current and possibly blow the fuse. If this is the problem, the solution is to correct the power supply (if it is under your control) or to wait until it is normal again (if it is a utility supply).

This is used in a hospital to measure the volume of air in a persons lungs......people that suffer from respiratory problems.\nFYI....if a person is having an asthmatic attack and ends up in the emergency room....this machine can tell how much air is in the lungs.    It measures a persons exhaled carbon dioxide....thus determining the amount of air flow in the persons system.
