2. Irrigation sprinkler - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irrigation_sprinkler

   Sprinkler irrigation is the method of applying water in a controlled manner in way similar to rainfall. The water is distributed through a network that may consist of pumps, valves, pipes, and sprinklers. [ 1 ] Irrigation sprinklers can be used for residential, industrial, and agricultural usage. It is useful on uneven land where sufficient ...

3. Solenoid valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solenoid_valve

   A solenoid valve is an electromechanically operated valve. Solenoid valves differ in the characteristics of the electric current they use, the strength of the magnetic field they generate, the mechanism they use to regulate the fluid, and the type and characteristics of fluid they control. The mechanism varies from linear action, plunger-type ...

4. Rain sensor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rain_sensor

   A rain sensor or rain switch is a switching device activated by rainfall. There are two main applications for rain sensors. The first is a water conservation device connected to an automatic irrigation system that causes the system to shut down in the event of rainfall. The second is a device used to protect the interior of an automobile from ...

5. Solenoid (engineering) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solenoid_(engineering)

   In engineering, a solenoid is a device that converts electrical energy to mechanical energy, using an electromagnet formed from a coil of wire. The device creates a magnetic field [1] from electric current, and uses the magnetic field to create linear motion. [2][3][4] In electromagnetic technology, a solenoid is an actuator assembly with a ...

   Magnetic field demonstration with solenoid-shaped insulated wire and iron filings. A solenoid (/ ˈsoʊlənɔɪd / [1]) is a type of electromagnet formed by a helical coil of wire whose length is substantially greater than its diameter, [2] which generates a controlled magnetic field. The coil can produce a uniform magnetic field in a volume of ...
