  2. Köhler illumination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Köhler_illumination

    In a ray diagram of the illumination light path, this can be seen as the image-forming rays passing parallel through the sample. Köhler illumination requires several optical components to function: Collector lens and/or field lens; Field diaphragm; Condenser diaphragm; Condenser lens; Schematics of Köhler illumination.

  3. Valve actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_actuator

    Electric actuator (blue cylinder) on a valve in a power plant. A black handwheel is visible on the actuator, which allows manual positioning of the valve. The blue valve body is visible in-line with the pipe. The valve actuator opens or closes the butterfly disc of the valve based on electrical signals sent to the actuator.

  4. Bright-field microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bright-field_microscopy

    A bright-field microscope has many important parts including; the condenser, the objective lens, the ocular lens, the diaphragm, and the aperture. Some other pieces of the microscope that are commonly known are the arm, the head, the illuminator, the base, the stage, the adjusters, and the brightness adjuster.

  5. Diaphragm valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diaphragm_valve

    The most common diaphragm valves use pneumatic actuators; in this type of valve, air pressure is applied through a pilot valve into the actuator which in turn raises the diaphragm and opens the valve. This type of valve is one of the more common valves used in operations where valve speed is a necessity.

  6. Diaphragm (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diaphragm_(optics)

    The centre of the diaphragm's aperture coincides with the optical axis of the lens system. Most modern cameras use a type of adjustable diaphragm known as an iris diaphragm, and often referred to simply as an iris. See the articles on aperture and f-number for the photographic effect and system of quantification of varying the opening in the ...

  7. Pressure regulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_regulator

    The measuring element functions to determine when the inlet flow is equal to the outlet flow. The diaphragm itself is often used as a measuring element; it can serve as a combined element. [citation needed] In the pictured single-stage regulator, a force balance is used on the diaphragm to control a poppet valve in order to regulate pressure.

  8. Diaphragm (mechanical device) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diaphragm_(mechanical_device)

    In mechanics, a diaphragm is a sheet of a semi-flexible material anchored at its periphery and most often round in shape. It serves either as a barrier between two chambers, moving slightly up into one chamber or down into the other depending on differences in pressure , or as a device that vibrates when certain frequencies are applied to it.

  9. Pneumatic actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pneumatic_actuator

    A pneumatic actuator mainly consists of a piston or a diaphragm which develops the motive power. It keeps the air in the upper portion of the cylinder, allowing air pressure to force the diaphragm or piston to move the valve stem or rotate the valve control element. Valves require little pressure to operate and usually double or triple the ...
