Industrial Hygiene

Industrial hygiene is the science of protecting and enhancing the health and safety of people at work and in their communities. Health and safety hazards cover a wide range of chemical, physical, biological and ergonomic stressors. Those dedicated to anticipating, recognizing, evaluating and controlling those hazards are known as Industrial Hygienists. They are professionals dedicated to the well-being of people – at work, at home, and in the community.

The term “industrial hygiene” gained popularity in the early 1900s with the formation of the Industrial Hygiene Section of the American Public Health Association. Since there were few “industrial hygienists”, organizations began to use their Scientists (e.g. chemists, toxicologists, physicians, engineers) to evaluate and improve the health of the work environment, largely with a focus on chemical and noise hazards. The term industrial hygiene is still in use although it’s application and scope have expanded greatly since that time period to all hazards, industries, workers, families, and the communities. Today, there are other terms that essentially mean the same thing as industrial hygiene, e.g., Occupational Hygiene, Occupational Health, Environment, Health & Safety (EHS).

PARKER Ball Valves Universal Series

PARKER Ball Valves Universal Series has patented seal wear compensating technology for reliable and durable sealing, protecting any system whether under pressure or vacuum.

What is the Ball valve?

A ball valve is a shut-off valve that controls the flow of a liquid or gas by means of a rotary ball having a bore. By rotating the ball a quarter-turn (90 degrees) around its axis, the medium can flow through or is blocked.

They are characterized by a long service life and provide a reliable sealing over the life span, even when the valve is not in use for a long time. As a result, they are more popular as a shut-off valve then, for example, the gate valve.

Moreover, they are more resistant to contaminated media than most other types of valves. In special versions, ball valves are also used as a control valve.

This application is less common due to the relatively limited accuracy of controlling the flow rate in comparison with other types of control valves. However, the ball valve also offers some advantages here. For example, the valve still ensures a reliable sealing, even in the case of dirty media.

This range of valves has patented seal wear compensating technology for reliable and durable sealing, protecting any system whether under pressure or vacuum.

The unique design of Emerson’s Rosemount 8800 Vortex Flow Meters features isolated sensors that eliminate the need to break process seals for flow and temperature sensor replacement.

What is the Vortex flow meter?

A vortex flow meter is a flow measurement device best suited for flow measurements where the introduction of moving parts presents problems. They are available in industrial grade, brass or all-plastic construction. Sensitivity to variations in the process conditions is low and no moving parts have relatively low wear compared to other types of flow meters.

Vortex flowmeters operate under the vortex shedding principle, where an oscillating vortexes occur when a fluid such as water flow past a bluff (as opposed to streamlined) body. The frequency that the vortexes are shed depends on the size and shape of the body. It is ideal for applications where low maintenance costs are important. Industrial size vortex meters are custom built and require appropriate sizing for specific applications.

Ashcroft threaded diaphragm seals

/0 Comments/in /by

Ashcroft threaded diaphragm seals

The Ashcroft 100 and 101 threaded diaphragm seals or isolation devices protect pressure measuring instruments. Used when process compatibility is required, these are also applied when media exhibits high temperature or the potential to clog an instrument connection. Ideal for satisfying many challenging applications.

What is a diaphragm seal?

The process side of the seal is isolated by a flexible diaphragm. The internal space between this diaphragm and the pressure measuring instrument is completely filled with a system fill fluid. The pressure is transmitted from the measured medium by the elastic diaphragm into the fluid and from there to the measuring element, i.e. to the pressure measuring instrument or the transmitter. In many cases, between the diaphragm seal and pressure measuring instrument, a capillary is connected in order (for example) to eliminate or to minimize temperature effects from the hot fluid to the measuring instrument. The capillary affects the response time of the overall system. Diaphragm seal, capillary and measuring instrument form a closed system. The sealed filling screws on the diaphragm seal and the measuring instrument must therefore never be opened since the function of the system is affected following any escape of filling liquid! The diaphragm and the connecting flange are the elements of the system which come into contact with the medium. Therefore, the material from which they are made must meet the relevant requirements in terms of temperature and corrosion resistance.

Features

  • 316L stainless steel top housing (standard)

CRANE globe valves

CRANE globe valves

/0 Comments/in /by

CRANE globe valves

CRANE globe valves are highly efficient for services requiring frequent operation and throttling when pressure drop across the valve is about 20% of inlet pressure.

Closer throttling, creating higher pressure drops may cause cavitation or excessive velocities which could cause high noise levels, vibration and possible damage to the valve or adjacent piping. Globe valves can be equipped with optional operators and are available with a variety of trims to match service requirements.

CRANE globe valves are supplied as standard with contour or spherical type plugs and are classified as quick opening on flow curves

Features & Benefits

  • All seat rings are seal welded as standard
  • Quality process fully documented, materials fully traceable
  • Full range of special trims and options available

Typical Industries and Applications

  • Energy – Power Production, Oil & Gas, Refining, District Heating
  • Processing – Chemical Processing, Pulp & Paper, Food & Beverage, Petro Chemical
  • Other Industries – Marine, Waste Water, Mining, OEM, others

Globe Valves

Globe valves are ideal for throttling service. Their flow characteristics permit accurate and repeatable flow control. However, caution must be exercised to avoid extremely close throttling when pressure drop exceeds 20%. This creates excessive noise, vibration and possible damage to valves and piping. Crane does not recommend applications in excess of this due to possible damage to the valve. Gear Actuators recommended for Globe valves:

  • Class 150: sizes above 6″
  • Class 300: sizes above 6″
  • Class 600: sizes above 4″

Globe valves are designed to close off, open up or throttle the flow in a pipeline. The disc is designed to completely stop flow and form a tight seal with pressure under the disc. In the 10% open position to full open position, globe valves are effective in throttling line pressure. NOTE: Continuous throttling at less than 10% open may cause excessive vibration, noise, wear and damage to discs and seats.

OPERATION

Most valves, which are located in an accessible environment, are actuated by a manual handwheel mounted directly on top of the valve. When the valve size or differential pressure is so great that the handwheel size cannot keep the operating handwheel pull within customer reasonable limits, then a bevel gear should be mounted on the top-works. In addition, many customers require the remote operation or operating times that are not possible with manual handwheels, in this case, Electric Motor Actuators (EMO’s) can be used.

Bosch Rexroth Gerotor pump

Bosch Rexroth Gerotor pump

/0 Comments/in /by

Bosch Rexroth Gerotor pump

Bosch Rexroth Gerotor pump is hydraulic pumps with fixed displacement for low-pressure requirements. It is typically employed in combination with other Rexroth pumps.

Via the driving disk, the shaft drives the inner rotor in the direction of rotation shown. The inner rotor meshes with the outer rotor and causes the same to rotate as well. The tooth clearances opening in the suction area (S) prime the hydraulic fluid.

The suction and pressure area are separated on the opposite side of the meshing area (Z) by a radial gap (R) created by the tooth profile of the outer and the inner rotor sliding against each other. Within the pressure area (P) the hydraulic fluid is pumped into the pressure port as the chambers become.

Properties

The gearing with cycloid contour is characterized by a large meshing length. Filling zone and displacement area cover a large rotation angle. This results in low flow pulsation and thus very low operating noise. The shaft and the displacer are supported by a slide bearing and work in a wear-free manner when used as intended. Gerotor pumps PGZ are self-priming.
