Fire Protection in Floating Roof Tanks Around the world, there are over 4,800 oil terminals responsible for storing nearly a billion cubic meters of crude oil and other combustible or flammable petroleum products (source: www.tankterminals.com). Many of these terminals use floating roof tanks (FRTs). Though FRTs are considered safer than
How long does a blast disk last? The blast disks are carefully selected and made of very thin materials, using real trial methods, not calculation methods. In the end, durability is exactly what is needed and this does not include the effect of corrosion margin or other safety factors. The
Protect Your Extrusion Machine from Overpressure Demands on extrusion machinery have become more challenging in recent years due to increased production demands and the desire to extend the working life of the equipment. These two ongoing factors tend to lead to excessive pressure build-up in an extrusion machine, which can
Değerli Varlıklarınız ve Dünyamız İçin Etkili Koruma; Novec™ 1230 Gazlı Söndürme Sistemi Clean gas extinguishing systems protect our valuable assets and now protect the most valuable of all; our environment. Novec™ 1230 is an environmentally friendly extinguishing gas with zero ODP and only 1 GWP. Not only to protect our
What is Your Business’s Most Critical Priority? Clean Gas Extinguishing System Nowadays, gas extinguishing systems are preferred more frequently than classical extinguishing systems due to their effectiveness in extinguishing fire. No need for cleaning, short downtime and no damage to the devices are the main reasons for preference. Each of
Explosion Protection of Gas/Oil Fired Engines Gas or oil powered engines are used in a wide variety of industries. They are often used as a flexible energy source or backup if there is a power outage or for systems that are rarely used. They also have some advantages: they are
Isolation of Pressure Relief Valves from Inlet Side Excessive pressure in production processes can be the result of a variety of causes, from leak reactions and faulty regulators to operator errors and faulty equipment. Excessive pressure can have serious consequences, not only damaging equipment and systems, but also potentially leading
How Can We Reduce the Costs of Owning Pressure Relief Valves? Process engineers must also take the total cost into account when evaluating the capital cost of spending on a new process or simply upgrading or replacing an item. How much the item will cost over its lifetime always requires
How Much Do Leaky Pressure Relief Valves Cost? In industrial processes that frequently operate under pressure, pressure relief is often achieved through the use of Pressure Relief Valves (PRV). The use of these devices is preferred because they ensure the safe operation of processes when they re-close after the application
FM-200 Today, FM-200 (HFC-227ea) is a versatile and reliable system used in fire protection of risky areas. It is also one of the most preferred clean gases in its class. Because FM-200: It is electrically insulating Can be used safely in places where people live, work or visit It is
Importance of Tests in the Design of Explosion Protection Systems A large chemical company in England had been using a large spray dryer system for many years. They thought that the risk of explosion was reduced by installing explosion damping systems in the main dryer and a flameless explosion cover
What is Atex? Explosion danger exists in all types of industrial production. There is a risk of explosion in many industrial production processes, from mining to grain milling, from all kinds of chemical manufacturing to food production. Explosive atmospheres in production areas can be caused by gases, steam or dust.
