Farm to Fork strategies focus on making value chains ethical, healthy and sustainable. The poultry and egg processing industries are facing unprecedented challenges. Energy and raw material prices are increasing, […]
In the oil and gas industry, hydraulic power recovery turbines (HPRTs) capture energy in hydrocrackers that would otherwise be wasted to efficiently drive a charge pump, compressor or generator to […]
These guidelines will help extend packing life and reduce downtime. No shortcuts should be taken if a plant wants to achieve reliable compression packing performance. However, reliability and a longer […]
All DFT Check Valves undergo rigorous tests to ensure they meet industry quality requirements. Check out this handy infographic to learn about their diligent testing.
Electro Static Technology (EST, AEGIS®) guarantees that AC induction motor bearings will not fail from electrical fluting damage when AEGIS Shaft Grounding Rings have been installed with new bearings in […]
Pumping applications can range from being simple – fluid transferring operations that move product from one tank, container or truck to another – to complex and sensitive, such as chemical […]
Part 1 of this series discussed in detail how to accurately calculate the reactions induced by pressure transients that travel at acoustic velocity in either liquid or gas piping systems. […]
Changes in the operation of piping systems – like valve closures or pump starts – propagate pressure waves that travel at acoustic velocity throughout the fluid. These pressure waves have […]
Basic Principle The radial vanes cause pumpage, let’s say water, to rotate in the cylinder. Centrifugal force moves water towards the outside of the cylinder. Since the water can’t move […]
The air-operated double-diaphragm (AODD) pump has been a godsend for operators in the industrial space who need a cost-effective, reliable, and safe pump technology for a wide range of liquid-transfer […]
Long packing life requires proper packing installation, shaft stabilization, and thorough equipment inspections. By David Brewer The stuffing box of a pump houses a gland that compresses the packing used […]
