    Dishwashers differ in design, size, brand, make, and model, so consult the user's manual for model-specific information. However, here are some standard dishwasher settings and what they mean. Pre ...

  3. Dishwasher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dishwasher

    A dishwasher containing clean dishes. A dishwasher is a machine that is used to clean dishware, cookware, and cutlery automatically. Unlike manual dishwashing, which relies on physical scrubbing to remove soiling, the mechanical dishwasher cleans by spraying hot water, typically between 45 and 75 °C (110 and 170 °F), at the dishes, with lower temperatures of water used for delicate items.

  4. Decibel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decibel

    The decibel originates from methods used to quantify signal loss in telegraph and telephone circuits. Until the mid-1920s, the unit for loss was miles of standard cable (MSC). 1 MSC corresponded to the loss of power over one mile (approximately 1.6 km) of standard telephone cable at a frequency of 5000 radians per second (795.8 Hz), and matched closely the smallest attenuation detectable to a ...

    A dishwasher is a machine for cleaning dishware and cutlery automatically. Unlike manual dishwashing, which relies largely on physical scrubbing to remove soiling, the mechanical dishwasher cleans by spraying hot water, typically between 45 and 75 °C (110 and 170 °F), at the dishes, with lower temperatures used for delicate items.

  6. Permissible exposure limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permissible_exposure_limit

    OSHA's PEL for noise exposure is 90 decibels (dBA) for an 8-hour TWA. Levels of 90-140 dBA are included in the noise dose. [4] PEL can also be expressed as 100 percent “dose” for noise exposure. When the noise exposure increases by 5 dB, the exposure time is cut in half. [5] According to OSHA, a 95dBA TWA would be a 200 percent dose. [6]

  7. dBm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DBm

    dBm or dB mW (decibel-milliwatts) is a unit of power level expressed using a logarithmic decibel (dB) scale respective to one milliwatt (mW). It is commonly used by radio, microwave and fiber-optical communication technicians & engineers to measure the power of system transmissions on a log scale , which can express both very large and very ...

  8. Dynamic range - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_range

    Multiple noise processes determine the noise floor of a system. Noise can be picked up from microphone self-noise, preamp noise, wiring and interconnection noise, media noise, etc. Early 78 rpm phonograph discs had a dynamic range of up to 40 dB, [24] soon reduced to 30 dB and worse due to wear from repeated play. Vinyl microgroove phonograph ...

  9. dBFS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DBFS

    Decibels relative to full scale (dBFS or dB FS) is a unit of measurement for amplitude levels in digital systems, such as pulse-code modulation (PCM), which have a defined maximum peak level. The unit is similar to the units dBov and decibels relative to overload (dBO). [1] The level of 0 dBFS is assigned to the maximum possible digital level. [2]
