  2. Electromagnetic lock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_lock

    The power for an electromagnet lock is DC (direct current), around 5–6 W. [4] The current is around 0.5 A when the voltage supply is 12 VDC and 0.25 A when using 24 VDC (varies between manufacturers and if there are one or two coils in the block). It is also recommended to verify that the magnetic lock carries the UL mark.

  3. Electromagnetic door holder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_door_holder

    Wall-mounted electromagnetic door holder securing a door in the open position. An electromagnetic door holder (electromagnetic door holder and release or hold-open device, sometimes informally called a mag hold open or electric doorstop) is a simple electromechanical mechanism which can be used to hold a fire door or security door open until given a signal to release.

  4. Power supply - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_supply

    A simple general-purpose desktop power supply used in electronic labs, with power output connector seen at lower-left and power input connector (not shown) located at the rear Interior of high-end linear power supply with toroidal mains transformer. A power supply is an electrical device that supplies electric power to an electrical load.

  5. Electropermanent magnet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electropermanent_magnet

    An electropermanent magnet or EPM is a type of permanent magnet in which the external magnetic field can be switched on or off by a pulse of electric current in a wire winding around part of the magnet. The magnet consists of two sections, one of "hard" (high coercivity) magnetic material and one of "soft" (low coercivity) material. The ...

  6. Mechanically powered flashlight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanically_powered...

    Mechanically powered flashlights were distributed by aid organizations to survivors of the 2010 Haiti earthquake since electric power was lost for a long period. A mechanically powered flashlight (UK: mechanically powered torch ) is a flashlight that is powered by electricity generated by the muscle power of the user, so it does not need ...

  7. Magnetic switchable device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_switchable_device

    A magnetic switchable device (often called a magnetic base) is a magnetic fixture that uses one or more permanent magnets in a configuration that allows the external field to be turned on or off. They are used in many applications including optics , metalworking , lifting , and robotics, to attach items to metal surfaces in a secure but ...

  8. Permanent magnet motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanent_magnet_motor

    Schematic of a permanent magnet motor using brushes and magnets in the stator. A permanent magnet motor is a type of electric motor that uses permanent magnets for the field excitation and a wound armature. The permanent magnets can either be stationary or rotating; interior or exterior to the armature for a radial flux machine or layered with ...

  9. Regulated power supply - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulated_power_supply

    A regulated power supply is an embedded circuit; it converts unregulated AC (alternating current) into a constant DC. With the help of a rectifier it converts AC supply into DC. Its function is to supply a stable voltage (or less often current), to a circuit or device that must be operated within certain power supply limits.
