German term

Ixt

German to English Tech/Engineering Manufacturing Inductive hardening process
All I have is a list of processes related to inductive hardening of an impeller shell. The term occurs in this sequence:
Anlassen Heizen Energie Divisor

Anlassen Heizen Ixt max.
Anlassen Heizen Ixt min.
Anlassen Heizen Ixt Divisor

Anlassen Brause 1 Zeit max.

Can't ask the client; they are clueless. All suggestions welcome.
Thanks, Kevin

Check out the use of "Ixt" in the context of "Geräteauslastung" or "Auslastung", maybe this will help you. "I" (=current) x "t" (=time):
"C061 Auslastung I x t xxxx Anzeigebereich: 0,0...+100,0%,
Schrittweite: 0,1%. Der angezeigte Wert wird aus dem Strom-Zeit-Integral Ixt des Gerätestromes ermittelt. Bei Erreichen von 100% meldet die I x t Überwachung Überlastfehler."<br>

"I" in extract I wondered about that, but I extracted the text from the PDF so I could work on it in a CAT tool, and it shows up as "I" (upper case i). The digit "1" is quite distinct in the font used.

Are you sure they're Is and not 1s? Could it be "one times t"?

I x t

I would interpret this as "I x t" where "I" is the placeholder for current (Strom) and "t" for "time". You could provide/add the explanation for "Ixt" (Current (I) times the Time (t)) on the first occurrence, depending on the target group. I think the use of spaces makes it clearer.

Check out the use of "Ixt" in the following context of "Geräteauslastung" or "Auslastung"

"I" (=Strom/current) x "t" (=Zeit/time)

"C061 Auslastung I x t xxxx Anzeigebereich: 0,0...+100,0%,
Schrittweite: 0,1%. Der angezeigte Wert wird aus dem Strom-Zeit-Integral Ixt des Gerätestromes ermittelt. Bei Erreichen von 100% meldet die I x t Überwachung Überlastfehler."

1 x maximum time, 1 x min. time, 1 x time divisor, 1 x maximum time

just looks like abbreviations for max and min time...
