The third dimension in a graphics image. The width is the x-axis and the height is the y-axis.

Assigned program areas that may control the same outputs through separate rungs, at different times. Each ZCL zone is bound and controlled by ZCL instructions. If all ZCL zones are disabled, the outputs in the zones would remain in their most recent controlled state.

Used when 'setting up' a transducer to adjust the output signal to zero when zero load/pressure is applied.

1. The difference expressed in degrees between true zero and an indication given by a measuring instrument. 2. See Zero Suppression

The resistance of a thermistor or RTD element with no power being dissipated.

The span of an indicator or chart recorder may be offset from zero (zero suppressed) such that neither limit of the span will be zero. For example, a temperature recorder which records a 100? span from 400? to 500? is said to have 400? zero suppression.

Zero-REPLACEion-Force connector. A connector for which male and female contacts do not initially touch each other while the connector halves are being engaged. Instead, the halves are physically positioned together, and then a turn of an actuating cam arrangement mates all the contacts at once.
