For the last time and then this "issue" is over.
All that I said was that in using the magnetic coupler you eliminate motor heat because the motor runs at it full RPMs (and the Coupler does do this).... that is all...nothing else. My comments had nothing to do with losses, nothing to do with...
Wow I suppose I should check in here more often to see who is taking shots at my threads.
dpc, funny reply about the laws of physics thing but perhaps you should read what you are replying to.
What I said was that by using MagnaDrive in these applications the MOTOR heat is eliminated. The...
Check out Hy-Grade valves. These guys make a valve that is at the upper end of check valves.
TBP is right but if you chec out the HyGrade design they have an integral flapper and pin. Really only 4 parts to the valve. It works like a champ.
They have a double seated design so they can get...
Hold ON Y'all
API 6FA PALES in comparison to the API 607 Firesafe regulations.
Do the homeworkand see that if a Valve Complies with 607 (4th edition- Basically the Exxon partial burn test) then that valve would LAUGH at meeting 6FA standards.
There is no contest. Show your customer both test...
Hey Valve God.... you left out the inventor and original patent holder from the sixties who liscenced ALL of the guys you mentioned in the triple offset market not to mention the LONG list of continued copycats trying to get onboard.
ADAMS Valves from Herne Germany patented the very concept...
The Bore of the valve determines the overall Body size. In other words, it takes more metal to build a full Bore/Port valve than a reduced Bore/Port valve, thus more $$.
FYI Reduced bore valves can also be referred to as Standard bore/port.
The relieved "bonnet" area is fast becoming the standard for PSVs. It is my belief that while wedge gates still have their place in industrial applications, steam is not one of them. As expansion and contraction occur a forced fit wedge tends to bind. This is particularly a concern in...
