As a maintenance engineer, it’s quite critical to understand the estimate time for maintenance of various plant equipment. However the time for each varies from 3-6 months depending on conventional MCCs to smart intelligent MCCs. If you have a new MCC installation then you will be supplied by O&M manual, that covers mainly what need […]

Working principle of Oval Gear Flowmeter: What you see below is the oval gear flow meter which has oval-shaped rotors, each with gears on it that spin inside a spherical housing. Differential pressure from fluid in the tube causes the gears to rotate and empty fluid out into the stream. A rotating shaft is measured

Control valves play a vital role in the process control loop by changing the flow rate according to its size. In order to minimize the problems, you must understand the maximum & minimum flow, Selection of correct valve sizing, flow phenomena, laminar flow, turbulent flow, Newtonian & non-Newtonian fluid, etc. Considering all the points above

So It’s been a while since we’ve had a wonderful technical session, Now I’ll just start of with this technology which have been used mainly in refrigeration system in the industries. So let’s dive into it. Where to find the thermostatic expansion valve? The TXV is used in many refrigeration systems, everything from simple split

As a result of conservative engineering practices, pumps are often substantially larger than they need to be for an industrial plant’s process requirements. Centrifugal pumps can often be oversized because of “rounding up,” trying to accommodate gradual increases in pipe surface roughness and flow resistance over time, or anticipating future plant capacity expansions. In addition,
