Industrial thermal oil heater TPC & EPC

Thermal Oil HeaterBABCOCK WANSON is leader in the field of the design and the installation of thermal oil heaters TPC and EPC (high outputs, service contracts on demand, compliance with environmental standards).

User advantages :
reliability and rugged long life construction ;
guarantee on both the burner and the boiler ;
efficiency, which can be higher than 92% over the operating range ;
investments and maintenance costs reduced ;
optimised heat balance, associates the high output of the boiler with very low thermal losses on the distribution system which means very high overall plant efficiency ;
very short response time, low inertia ;
optimisation of the thermal coefficient of transfer of the boundary layers ;
low pressure of operation normally no more than total system resistance (10 bar max) for high temperature

Training workshop is a Triumph

Triumph MotorcycleThrough a training workshop and by providing a specialist range of precision bearings and maintenance-free engine components, Schaeffler UK is helping Triumph cut engine weight, friction and fuel consumption on its motorcycles.

Fifteen design engineers from British motorcycle manufacturer Triumph recently attended a training workshop at its headquarters in Hinckley, Leicestershire, organised by UK bearings specialist Schaeffler (UK) Limited. The objective was to learn more about Schaeffler

Precision Chilled Water

Designed specifically for industry, Hyperchill is the new range of precision water chillers by Hiross.

The range covers cooling capacities from 2 to 360 kW. Each model is designed for safe and reliable operation, whatever the working conditions.

Industrial processes are very diverse by nature: consequently flexibility to satisfy all industrial applications is a main feature of Hyperchill.

Thanks to sophisticated technical solutions and an extensive range of accessories, Hyperchill operates continuously and efficiently whatever the conditions. All models standardly accept water inlet temperatures up to 30

Oil-free Rotary Screw Compressors

Oil Free CompressorDH Series
DH Series - A Reliable and Efficient Heart
At the heart of the compressor is an innovative single screw compression element, featuring a single main rotor with 6 flutes meshing with a pair of 11 tooth gate rotors, that is proven in thousands of installations. 

Compression takes place in two chambers above and below the main rotor, as a result compression loads are balanced and bearing loads are significantly reduced. The low bearing loads extend compression element life and significantly reduce lifetime operating costs.

Water injected into the compression element provides lubrication, sealing and cooling. The superior cooling properties of water allows the compressor to operate at a low temperature providing near isothermal compression, low power consumption and class leading efficiency levels. A reverse osmosis membrane cartridge filters the injection water entering the compressor; as a result the water is always maintained at a high purity level.

Single-Point Lubricators Reduce Maintenance, Ensure Accurate Bearing Lubrication

Single Point LubricatorBy Frank Mowka
Applications Engineer
FAG Bearings Corp., Danbury, CT
 
Automatic lubricators can be installed on most applications that require greasing maintenance. Here, a worker adjusts the lubricator on a honing machine for bearing manufacture. 
Nearly 90% of all bearings are lubricated with grease and 80% of all bearing failures are lubrication-related. Therefore, a crucial aspect of preventive maintenance is ensuring that bearings are maintained at proper lubrication levels, with adequate grease to help keep out water, dust and other contaminants. But it's as important to understand how much and how often a lubricant should be delivered as it is to know the type.

Unfortunately, in many applications proper lubrication is not a high priority. This is often due to bearing inaccessibility or because bearings cannot be lubricated until the equipment stops operating. At the same time, grease amounts - both over-greasing and under-greasing - are also potential causes of bearing failures.
