circuit element which is a conductor wrapped into a coil to create a magnetic field.
A control mechanism that allows a regulated quantity of foam concentrate to be introduced into the main hose line.
An electronic component designed to provide a controlled amount of inductance
An electrical component in which impedance increases as the frequency of the AC decreases. Also known as coils that are used in passive crossovers. Inductors are rated in Hennes.
An electronic component used to introduce inductance into a circuit.
All electrical currents create a magnetic field around their conductor. In AC the field created in the first half of the cycle can oppose the flow of current (in the opposite direction) in the second half of the cycle. This can be a problem when not wanted, but can be used in an inductor as a type of impedance in AC circuits.
A component specifically designed to increase the amount of inductance in a circuit.
Reactive component that presents an increasing impedance with frequency. A coil in a loudspeaker crossover is an inductor.
An electrical component that opposes changes in current flow and stores electrical energy as a magnetic field. Although all wires have inductive properties, an inductor component is usually a coil of wire. Transformers use this same principle.
Generally, a coil of wire. Inductors pass DC currents, resist AC currents, and store energy in the form of a magnetic field.
A coil of wire which exhibits a resistance to any change of amplitude or direction of current flow through itself. Inductance is inherent in any conductor, but is "concentrated" by winding into a coil. An inductor tends to pass low frequencies more readily than high frequencies. Electrically it is the opposite of a capacitor. Basic unit of measurement is the Henry (H), in crossover networks it will typically be measured in milli-henrys (mH = 1 x 10-3H) and for RF micro-henrys (uH) are common
A coil of wire wrapped a specific number of turns around a core material, used to produce inductance in a circuit.
A device consisting of a coil of wire. This core may be soft iron or air. An inductor opposes th flow of AC and variations in the flow of DC.

A component in crossover networks. Available at electronic supply stores, or can be made by winding wire in a doughnut shaped coil. Inductance is denominated in Henries. A cousin of a resistor, but presents a high resistance to high frequencies, and low resistance to low frequencies. More inductance means more resistance.
A device whose impedance increases with increasing frequency. Also known as a coil; commonly used in passive crossovers as a low pass filter device.
an electronic device used to store energy in the form of a magnetic charge.
a circuit component that exhibits inductance and acts to resist change in current
An inductor is a coil of wire used in crossover filters that creates a frequency dependent impedance (lower at low frequencies and higher at high frequencies - the opposite of a what a capacitor creates). is from the metric system. It means kilo, or 1000.
A device designed primarily to introduce inductance into an electric circuit. Sometimes called a choke or coil.
A passive component designed to resist changes in current. Inductors are often referred to as AC resistors. The ability to resist changes in current and the ability to store energy in its magnetic field account for the bulk of the useful properties of inductors. Current passing through an inductor will produce a magnetic field, which induces a voltage, which opposes the field-producing current. This property of impeding changes in current is known as inductance.
A coil onto which voltage is imposed by another coil.
A coil or component with the properties of inductance. Related Terms: Choke Coil
A small, passive component used to shape electrical signals, made by winding a wire into a spiral. It is found most electrical circuits.
Length of conductor used to introduce inductance into a circuit. The conductor is usually wound into a coil to concentrate the magnetic lines of force and maximize the inductance. While any conductor has inductance, in common usage the term inductor usually refers to a coil.
A conductor, usually coiled, which tends to oppose any change in the flow of current through itself.
An electrical device consisting of a conductor that is coiled. Inductors can be used to block high-frequency transients. As deployed in surge suppression strips, chokes (torroidal chokes) are available only in the highest quality surge suppression systems (Isobar level products from Tripp Lite use torroidal chokes and rod-core inductors for high frequency surge and noise suppression). See torroidal chokes, rod-core inductors and active filtering.
A passive circuit component generally made in the form of a coil of wire
Solid state component with a particular Henry value.
An electronic device that resists changes in current due to the production of a magnetic field around itself. Inductors are usually used in an audio system as low-pass crossovers.
a passive electronic component that stores energy as a magnetic field. In it's simplest form an inductor is made up of a coil of wire. The inductance measured in henrys, is proportional to the number of turns of wire, the wire loop diameter and the material or core the wire is wound around..
Induction coil device generating heat to the extruder barrel by means of induction.
a coiled conductor that tends to oppose any change in the flow of current; usually has coils wrapped around a ferrous core; may be used in power supply filtering.
