LAL mais
​​Limulus-Amöbozyten-Lysat See also Limulus Test
menos
Laminar flow mais
​A laminar flow is a flow of gases and liquids around obstructions, which does not result in any flow turbulence. This means that the medium flows past the obstruction closely without becoming mixed up.
menos
Leaching effect mais
​Through certain media, low-molecular organic compounds are released from parts of a material. As a result, organic compounds from the piping system enter into the medium.
menos
Lethality factor (L) mais
​Effectiveness of a sterilisation processGermocidal effect at a certain temperature in relation to the germicidal effect of the reference temperature.
menos
Level mais
​The level is the degree of the filling of a container. The level can usually be measured by the height of the medium in the container.
menos
Limit value mais
​Permissible value which, according to laws, regulations, etc. must not be exceeded. According to the TVO, the limit value for the colony count in drinking water is: 100 germs/1 ml; for Escherichia coli (E. coli) in drinking water = 0 germs/100 ml, see also TVO menos
Limulus test mais
​Method for proving endotoxins by yellowing See also Pyrogenic
menos
Log reduction mais
​Alternative form of the D-value For example reduction by three powers of 10 (10 –3) = log3 or 3D-reduction.
menos
Long-stroke mais
​Term used in linear operating valves, cylinders and combustion engines The opening stroke/piston stroke is longer than the nominal diameter of the valve seat/piston.
menos
Long-term pasteurisation mais
​See also pasteurising
menos
Low germ mais
​Low colony number (germ number). In relation to a product low germ means that the biological stability is statistically guaranteed
menos
Low pasteurising mais

Machine mais
​A machine is a connected network of parts of which at least one part is freely maovable. A machine is used to perform technical processing stages and to optimize these in terms of force, time and accuracy.

Machinery Directive mais
​This directive regulates the framework conditions for occupational health and safety in connection with machines. It lays down requirements with regard to conformity assessment procedures for persons responsible for machines.
menos
Manipulated variable "y" mais
​Is the value by which the valve is actuated to achieve matching set and actual values.
The manipulated variable can be implemented electrically, hydraulically or pneumatically (depending on the implemented system technology).
menos
Maximum permissible operating pressure mais
​Is the maximum permissible pressure of the working medium defined by the manufacturer for which a component or device is designed and at which the function and operational reliability are still guaranteed.
The maximum permissible operating pressure is always dependent/interactive with the maximum permissible operating temperature and ambient temperature. The interactions in plastic pressurised components are so strong that they must be taken into account and might mean that they cannot be used. In other cases the interactions must at least be checked. A reference temperature for the working medium and the environment of 20 °C usually serves to determine the maximum permissible operating pressure defined by the manufacturer. If the actual temperature of the working medium or the environment deviates from the manufacturer reference, the user must limit the maximum operating pressure accordingly or use more stable components. If the maximum operating pressure is permissible at simultaneously high temperatures, the manufacturer will define this accordingly in the documentation.
menos
Maximum permissible operating temperature mais
​Is the maximum permissible temperature of the working medium defined by the manufacturer for which a component or device is designed and at which the function and operational reliability are still guaranteed.
The maximum permissible operating temperature is always dependent/interactive with the maximum permissible operating pressure and prevailing ambient temperature. The interactions in plastic pressurised components are so strong that they must be taken into account and might mean that they cannot be used. In other cases the interactions must at least be checked. A reference pressure for the working medium and an ambient temperature of 20 °C usually serves to determine the maximum permissible operating temperature defined by the manufacturer. If the actual pressure of the working medium or the ambient temperature deviates from the manufacturer reference, the user must limit the maximum operating temperature accordingly or use more stable components. If the maximum operating temperature is permissible at simultaneously high operating pressure and/or increased ambient temperature, the manufacturer will define this accordingly in the documentation.

menos
Measurement mais
Is the comparison of an unknown variable with a similar scaled known variable.
menos
Measurement device mais
​Is a device which continuously measures a mathematical, geometrical, chemical, physical or time variable directly (e.g. thermometer) or indirectly (e.g. turbine flow transmitter), processes it internally in a suitable form if necessary and shows it in a display.
Short definition: measurement is sensing and if necessary processing and displaying.
menos
Measuring transducer mais
​Is a device which continuously measures an electrical variable on the input side, converts it internally and provides it on the output side in another electrical variable as a signal for further processing (e.g. 2-wire measuring transducers which pick up a physical variable on the input side by a potentiometric sensor and provide it as a current signal for further processing on the output side).
menos
Micro filtration mais
Micro filtration is a membrane filtration process which works with pressure. The pore size is > 0,1 µm.
menos
Micro-organisms mais
​Bacteria, yeasts, mould fungi, algae; possibly viruses and bacteriophages.
Examples of dimensions:
Viruses = 17 - 300 µm,
bacteria = 0,2 - 3 µm,
yeasts = 2 - 8 µm.
menos
Microbiocide mais
​Germocidal
Microbiocidic materials have an exterminating effect on micro-organisms.
menos
MIF mais
​Magnetically inductive flowmeter. Through the application of a magnetic field and the voltage occurring as a result of the deflection of the load carrier, which is generated by the flowing medium in a pipe, the flow velocity can be calculated based on its proportionaliy to the voltage.
