| Child | Description |
|---|---|
| horn | An alarm device that makes a loud warning sound. |
| lamp | A physical object intended to produce an optical radiation, usually visible. |
| mechanical positioner | A mechanical controller that is intended to position a given item in accordance with a received input signal. |
| pitot tube | A fluid sensor producing a differential pressure by means of two straigth tubes mounted in line with the direction of the fluid movement. One tube is open-ended and measures the stagnation pressure of the fluid. The other tube is closed in front but has openings along the tube to measure the static pressure of the fluid. |
| recording instrument | A process instrument that records values represented by the input signal(s). |
| actuator | A physical object for changing a signal into a corresponding movement. |
| electronic circuit board | A physical object that comprises a printed circuit board with electronic components intended for receive, process/transform and transmit electrical signals. |
| calorimeter | Intended to measure quantities of absorbed or evolved heat or to determine specific heats. |
| frequency generator | A device that generates an electrical signal of a specified frequency. |
| siren | An acoustic device producing a loud sound as a signal or warning. |
| current transformer | An instrument transformer in which the secondary current, in normal conditions of use, is substantially proportional to the primary current and differs in phase from it by an angle which is approximately zero for an appropriate direction of the connections. |
| voltage transformer | An instrument transformer in which the secondary voltage, in normal conditions of use, is substantially proportional to the primary voltage and differs in phase from it by an angle which is approximately zero for an appropriate direction of the connections. |
| alarm unit | A physical object that is intended to process and annunciate alarms. |
| flow computer | A computer that is specially designed and programme to calculate flow and to correct for external influence. |
| sight glass | A physical object that is transparent and intended for viewing a vessel or piping system interior. |
| manual switch | A switch which is operated by a person. |
| interface card | A distribution board (network card) that is intended for communication between systems, to part of a system or to a computer network. |
