Equipotential bond
Equipotential bonding refers to a
connection with good electrical con-
ductivity that minimizes different
electrical potentials. The equipoten-
tial bonding is also commonly re-
ferred to as grounding.
FCU
Abbreviation for "FluidControl Unit"
Flash point
In accordance with DIN V 14011,
the flash point of a substance is the
lowest temperature at which an ig-

High-pressure adapter
Adapter required for measurement
with the FCU for pressures of 15 -
345 bar.
Load dump
Load dump is the switching off of
network load for the purpose of load
control in the power system. Given
that this generally represents an un-
planned event, the switch-off is trig-
gered by automatic devices, e.g.
network protection when certain
preset measured values are
reached, and carried out in auto-
matic sequences by the opening of
circuit breakers in transformer sta-
tions. This measure will lead to a
power failure for the parts of the
network affected by the load dump
and the consumers connected to
them.
Load dump
Load Dump is the term used to de-
scribe the occurrence of a voltage
peak on a motor vehicle generator
after the shedding of a load.
Viscosity range
Is the range in which the viscosity of
a pressurized fluid meets the re-
quirements that have been set.
