Network isolator — Network isolators are installed as part of a copper Ethernet system, as galvanic isolators. Network data continues to be transmitted across an electrically non conducting barrier, through the applied principle of electromagnetic induction,… … Wikipedia
Bushing (isolator) — Rubber bushing redirects here. For the plant species, see rubber bush. A bushing or rubber bushing is a type of vibration isolator. It provides an interface between two parts, damping the energy transmitted through the bushing. A common… … Wikipedia
wire rope isolator — products that provide shock and vibration isolation in horizontal, vertical and lateral axis. They are made of stainless steel rope, which makes them operable in extreme environments … Mechanics glossary
elastomer — 1) a polymeric material that may experience large and reversible elastic deformations. 2) a rubber based material, elastomers combine properties of both solids and liquids. An elastomer displays both elastic and hysteretic damping characteristics … Mechanics glossary

Combustor — Flame stabilized by cyclone. A combustor is a component or area of a gas turbine, ramjet, or scramjet engine where combustion takes place. It is also known as a burner, combustion chamber or flame holder. In a gas turbine engine, the combustor or … Wikipedia
Galvanic isolation — is the principle of isolating functional sections of electric systems so that charge carrying particles cannot move from one section to another, i.e. there is no electric current flowing directly from one section to the next. Energy and/or… … Wikipedia
