I hope someone on here has some experience with both or at least the Electrostatic Filter. I basically need to know the pros and cons that have been experienced with the two technologies.

An engineer I work with that is one of the most knowledgeable people on API 650 in my workplace designed a tank with a stiffener about halfway up the tank. A construction guy has been telling me that the flatbar used for the stiffener is not to API, but the engineer says it is. I see in API...
The construction crew that I am helping prefers bolting onto a lifting lug rather than rigging the paddle on a paddle blind to life. The 516gr70 blind is for 42" pipe and is 2-5/8" thick. Do any of you have thoughts on that?
Thank you!
Problem:
A centrifugal pump is used to transport 25 gpm of acetone at 78°F. The differential pressure across the pump is 50 psi. The vapor pressure of acetone at this temperature is 5.6 psia, viscosity is 0.3 cP, and density is 49 lbm/ft³ (sp gr = 0.79). The pump efficiency is 70%. The input...
Thank you all for explaining. I was actually initially confused as to what information I needed. Seems like it would be called Allowable Load Wk² for what the motor can handle. Anyway, I understand what I need now. Thanks again!
I used the equation they gave in MG 1. I had overlooked that chart. I guess what I am asking is how I would know if the motor load inertia is higher than that.
THanks!
Hi,
I am working with a spec that states "Load inertia within NEMA MG 1 (when load inertia is greater than NEMA MG 1, use API STD 541 motor)." I've looks through NEMA MG 1, and I'm having trouble understanding exactly what to look for. I've calculated that my Load Inertia is 246.03 lb-ft² for...
