    Gas-powered leaf blowers can register as high as 100 decibels at the source (the levels decrease with distance). Most electric models range from 59 to 70 decibels.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yamabiko_Corporation

    Until the 1960s, the company concentrated on the manufacture of power dusters, mist blowers and other pest control machinery. The first Kyoritsu Noki brushcutter was introduced in 1960 and three years later, the company launched its first chainsaw, the Echo CS-80, and the first Kyoritsu Noki tool to bear the "Echo" brand name. In 1970, Kyoritsu ...

  4. Leaf blower - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leaf_blower

    A leaf blower, commonly known as a blower, is a device that propels air out of a nozzle to move debris such as leaves and grass cuttings. Leaf blowers are powered by electric or gasoline motors . Gasoline models have traditionally been two-stroke engines , but four-stroke engines were recently introduced to partially address air pollution concerns.

  5. Bathtub curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bathtub_curve

    The 'bathtub curve' hazard function (blue, upper solid line) is a combination of a decreasing hazard of early failure (red dotted line) and an increasing hazard of wear-out failure (yellow dotted line), plus some constant hazard of random failure (green, lower solid line). The bathtub curve is a particular shape of a failure rate graph.

  7. Fan coil unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fan_coil_unit

    These motors are sometimes called DC motors, sometimes EC motors and occasionally DC/EC motors. DC stands for direct current and EC stands for electronically commutated.. DC motors allow the speed of the fans within a fan coil unit to be controlled by means of a 0-10 Volt input control signal to the motor/s, the transformers and speed switches associated with AC fan coils are not required.

  8. Capacitor discharge ignition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitor_discharge_ignition

    Some electronic ignition systems exist that are not CDI. These systems use a transistor to switch the charging current to the coil off and on at the appropriate times. This eliminates the problem of burned and worn points, and provides a hotter spark because of the faster voltage rise and collapse time in the ignition coil.

  9. Root cause analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_cause_analysis

    In science and engineering, root cause analysis (RCA) is a method of problem solving used for identifying the root causes of faults or problems. [1] It is widely used in IT operations, manufacturing, telecommunications, industrial process control, accident analysis (e.g., in aviation, [2] rail transport, or nuclear plants), medical diagnosis, the healthcare industry (e.g., for epidemiology ...
