Wall clocks with radio technology: Reliability and precision experience
The advantages of the radio technology with quartz watches are obvious. You profit from an always exact announcement of the time in many locations in Europe. Moreover so-called time sign transmitters in some regions of the world send a continuous time sign signal. According to watch model this signal will conceive in each case by the full hour or once daily (mostly between 2:00 and 4:00 o'clock) to correct the way mistake usual with quartz watches. To the examples of known time sign transmitters count under others of the time sign transmitters DCF77 in Mainflingen near Frankfurt am Main (Germany), with wristwatches also MSF in Great Britain, the Allouis transmitter in Zentralfrankreich, the JJY call sign in Japan or the US-American time sign transmitter WWVB. With reach of more than 1,500 kilometres and more per transmitter as well as a continuous transference of the time sign signal a high cover and availability of the time information is guaranteed. Advantage: A manual changeover between summertime and wintertime and if necessary the Datumsanziege is not necessary with a radio clock, also on travelling must be carried out - with availability of a time sign signal - no manual changeover to the local time. Should no time sign signal be available once in a region, the radio clock works like a conventional quartz clock - from the typical way mistake can originate then light divergences which Postadjust every now and then by by hand must be corrected.
Quartz clockworks: Reliably and maintenance-free - modern also with solar technology
Wall cloks with quartz clockwork have compared with other conventional technologies on the time the determining advantage to work absolutely reliably and maintenance-free. Since a quartz clockwork works according to watch model on full-electronic or electromechanical basis, mechanical components it is renounced. The quartz clockwork is driven by a battery as well as quartz crystals. An electronic quartz crystal acts as a tact giver, a swinging quartz holds a frequency of 32.768 oscillations per second. The result: The clock is not only exact and reliable, but requires no special or regular servicing. Special clockworks renounce a second impulse by which these do not function though silently, however, without annoying kink noise. By the way: Every now and then the battery must be exchanged with a radio clock. Alternatively in addition you can purchase a radio clock which is supported with solar energy and thereby extends the interval of the exchange of conventional batteries - this saves not only the environment, but in the long term looked also the purse.
