  2. Electromagnetic lock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_lock

    Typical single door electromagnetic locks are offered in both 600 lbs. (2669 N) and 1200 lbs. (5338 N) dynamic holding force capacities. A "fail safe" magnetic lock requires power to remain locked and typically is not suitable for high security applications, because it is possible to disable the lock by disrupting the power supply.

  3. Electronic lock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_lock

    Electric locks use magnets, solenoids, or motors to actuate the lock by either supplying or removing power. Operating the lock can be as simple as using a switch, for example an apartment intercom door release, or as complex as a biometric based access control system. There are two basic types of locks: "preventing mechanism" or operation ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromechanics

    Today, electromechanical processes are mainly used by power companies. All fuel based generators convert mechanical movement to electrical power. Some renewable energies such as wind and hydroelectric are powered by mechanical systems that also convert movement to electricity.

  5. Electromagnetic door holder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_door_holder

    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.

  6. Smart lock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smart_lock

    A smart lock is an electromechanical lock that is designed to perform locking and unlocking operations on a door when it receives a prompt via an electronic keypad, biometric sensor, access card, Bluetooth, or Wi-FI from a registered mobile device. These locks are called smart locks because they use advanced technology and Internet ...

  7. Electromagnetic radiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_radiation

    As a wave, light is characterized by a velocity (the speed of light), wavelength, and frequency. As particles, light is a stream of photons. Each has an energy related to the frequency of the wave given by Planck's relation E = hf, where E is the energy of the photon, h is the Planck constant, 6.626 × 10 −34 J·s, and f is the frequency of ...

  9. Therac-25 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Therac-25

    When the plate is in one of the three allowed fixed positions a plunger locks it by interlocking. In this type of machine, electromechanical locks were traditionally used to ensure that the turntable was in the correct position before starting treatment. In the Therac-25, these were replaced by software checks. [6]
