  2. Aquarium heater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquarium_heater

    An aquarium heater is a device used in the fishkeeping hobby to warm the temperature of water in aquariums. [1] Most tropical freshwater and marine aquariums are maintained at temperatures that range from 22 to 30 °C (72 to 86 °F). [1] [2] [3] The types include glass immersion heaters and undergravel heating. There are also heating mats that ...

  3. Crankcase heater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crankcase_heater

    The crankcase heater keeps refrigerant at a temperature higher than the coldest part of the system. A crankcase heater generally has the same electrical symbol as a resistor because it converts electricity directly into heat via electrical resistance. The resistance in the heater coil determines the heat it produces when voltage is applied. [1]

  4. Induction heater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_heater

    Induction heating is a non contact method of heating a conductive body by utilising a strong magnetic field.Supply (mains) frequency 50 Hz or 60 Hz induction heaters incorporate a coil directly fed from the electricity supply, typically for lower power industrial applications where lower surface temperatures are required.

  5. Submersible pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Submersible_pump

    A 0.75 HP bore-well submersible pump which had been used to pump groundwater One style of submersible pump for industrial use. Outlet pipe and electrical cable not connected. A submersible pump (or electric submersible pump (ESP) is a device which has a hermetically sealed motor close-coupled to the pump body. The whole assembly is submerged in ...

  6. Electric heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_heating

    30 kW resistance heating coils This radiant heater uses tungsten halogen lamps. Electric heating is a process in which electrical energy is converted directly to heat energy. Common applications include space heating, cooking, water heating and industrial processes. An electric heater is an electrical device that converts an electric current ...

  7. DSV Alvin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DSV_Alvin

    The submersible features two robotic arms and can be fitted with mission-specific sampling and experimental gear. The plug hatch of the vessel is 0.48 m (1 ft 7 in) in diameter and somewhat thicker than the 2-inch (51 mm) thick titanium sphere pressure hull; [ 2 ] it is held in place by the pressure of the water above it.

  8. Dry running protection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dry_running_protection

    Dry running protection, also known as dry-run protection or dry-running protection, is a type of protection mechanism to prevent a rotor, pump or stirrer shaft from operating without any medium added, as the bearing and shaft seal might be damaged if the motor is run while dry. [1]

  9. Air preheater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_preheater

    The station air is generally totally dry (dry air is required for the instrumentation), so the air used to drive the rotor is injected with oil to lubricate the air motor. Safety protected inspection windows are provided for viewing the preheater's internal operation under all operating conditions.
