Democratising knowledge in teams - How to get the information you need into the right people
How to democratise information in teams…
How do you get information into the hands of the people who need it to make sure all the tasks in your Engineering Team or Manufacturing teams know what to do when they need to do it?
That’s what we’re covering in todays vide.
- How to capture that key information that key people have
How to document it
How to store it so it’s easy to find - I’ve not seen anyone do this correctly!
We’re building a community of Engineering talent, we want to help create the type of expert engineers the manufacturing industry needs.
We’re going to cover everything we go over in our youtube channel and more, I wold love this to turn into a community with meet ups, more instructional deeper content from experts to help you develop as an engineer and help the industry.

How does a centrifugal pump work?

This video is a look into what is a centrifugal pump and how a centrifugal pump works. This centrifugal pump was taken from a coolant lubrication system on a metal cutting saw. It was removed because it was tripping the overload device. Centrifugal pumps are fairly common in fluid pumping applications, infact they're probably the most commonly used pump in the world! What makes them so popular ...

    0:55. Tip from an old engineer; if you are not an expert on a subject never say "basically" as that implies you are simplifying it for your audience to understand. Say "essentially" instead.

    I think you described a wet contact, which is the opposite of a volt-free contact. A potential-free contact, volt-free contact, or dry contact, is an electrical switch or relay contact that is not connected to any voltage or current source. In this context “free” means “without”, not “available”.

    • @RobertPiller38
      @RobertPiller38 6 місяців тому

      @@ChooseLife.YourLife For clarity I should have said "not connected to an *active* current source". Imagine connecting a garden hose to a spigot. If water (electricity) is flowing from the spigot, that's a wet contact. If the spigot is turned off, that's a dry contact. Sometimes you want to connect the hose even if water isn't currently flowing. For example, a relay can open and close a circuit even if electricity isn't flowing through said circuit at that particular moment. This is how relays allow you to use a 12V signal to activate a 120V device. The 12V signal energizes a relay coil that switches a separate 120V circuit, thus wetting the contacts. However, this terminology is confusing for two reasons: 1) Some people only use "dry contact" to refer to a contact that is isolated from the power source (because it's on a separate circuit), so they wouldn't consider that contact to be "wet" even when the relay has activated that circuit. 2) "Dry contacts" can also refer to a relay that does not use mercury-wetted contacts.

    When you call those a bridge rectifier, is that the same thing as SCR silicone current rectifier

    • @engineeringsupport247
      @engineeringsupport247 Рік тому

      I don't believe so, a bridge rectifier turns AC to DC, an SCR in my understanding is a Thyristor with a Gate that will only conduct when the right current is applied to the Gate.

    Good Teaching! Just A Tip For The Young Bucks & Doe's Out There! When Your In Industrial Manufacturing As A Technician Responsible For Troubleshooting, Fixing And Preventive Maintenance Of Equipment. Your Ultimately Responsible For Optimum Up Time, Output And Quality Of Equipment And The Products Being Produced & Processed! Therefore, There's Not Much Time In Production For Testing & Troubleshooting! Remove Smoking, Burnt Defective Modules, Assemblies, Devices, Etc! Swapping Them With New Ones Whenever Possible! Once Verified The Equipment Was Up And Running In Optimum Condition By Troubleshooting With New Modules Along With All Other Equipment Of Responsibility Being Up And Running! Take The Suspect Modules, Etc, In Engineering/Technicians Lab To Repair By Opening And Removing, Replacing Said Burnt Defective Components! Then, Test As Needed Or You Could Send Them Out For Repair Or Replacement To Vendor(s) Depending On Free Time Of Up/Down Time Of High Volume Production Equipment! Most Of The Time As A Technician You Have To Learn To Put Out The Fire(s) And Read Every Vendor(s) Machine And Equipment User/Troubleshooting And Repair Manual You Can! The Internet Wont Always Be Here Or Up & Available Due To Censorship Or Who Knows What!?! Thus, There's Always Time To Learn To Wash, Polish And Wax The Fire Truck After It's Repaired, Maintained & In Working Order If You Spend Time Wisely Reading The User & Repair Manuals! 😎

    @bikefarmtaiwan1800 2 роки тому

    Nice video - maybe you will be interested to know that the wiring in the bridge rectifier is what "magically" turns AC into the full wave rectified DC . The capacitor takes this wavy DC and then smooths that into the power that is used on the DC bus . The bridge rectifier wiring does some crafty re-routing to achieve this which had me confused for a while .... how does negative become positive ?? Regardless of the side that the AC wave is on compared to the zero volts line it is all voltage potential so half of the bridge flips the lower ( negative part of the AC wave ) up to the top to give you full rectification - no gaps ! Hope that helps
