Magneto components. Impulse coupling components. An ignition magneto (also called a high-tension magneto) is an older type of ignition system used in spark-ignition engines (such as petrol engines). It uses a magneto and a transformer to make pulses of high voltage for the spark plugs. The older term "high-tension" means "high-voltage". [1]
The contact breaker is operated by an engine-driven cam.On an engine with a distributor, the contact breaker can be found beneath the distributor cap.The position of the contact breaker is set so that it opens (and hence generates a spark) at exactly the optimum moment to ignite the fuel/air mixture.

Demonstration hand-cranked magneto made circa 1925, on display at the Musée d'histoire des sciences de la Ville de Genève. 2kW Société de l'Alliance magneto generator for arc lamps, of around 1870. A magneto is an electrical generator that uses permanent magnets to produce periodic pulses of alternating current.

Dual ignition provides two advantages: redundancy in the event of in-flight failure of one ignition system; and more efficient burning of the fuel-air mixture within the combustion chamber. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] In aircraft and gasoline-powered fire fighting equipment, redundancy is the prime consideration, but in other vehicles the main targets are ...
The Magneto Inductive Remote Activation Munition System (MI-RAMS) is a variant of the Remote Munition System (RAMS) that uses electromagnetic induction to control electronic equipment, including demolition charges, munitions, and active barriers. [1]
A trembler coil, buzz coil or vibrator coil is a type of high-voltage ignition coil used in the ignition system of early automobiles, most notably the Benz Patent-Motorwagen and the Ford Model T. [2] Its distinguishing feature is a vibrating magnetically-activated contact called a trembler or interrupter , [ 3 ] [ 1 ] which breaks the primary ...
