This book is intended to serve a wide variety of users. This updated third edition provides the detailed background necessary to understand how to meet important new safety regulations and reliability engineering topics. Professional control system designers will learn to properly evaluate...
Includes insights on valve sizing, smart (digital) valve positioners, field-based architecture, network system technology, and control loop performance evaluation. Hans Baumann, a holder of more than 150 patents, and author of over a hundred publications in control valve technology,...
This ISA classic provides the symbols and identification commonly used throughout the process industries. It contains sample P&ID and numerous examples of symbols and tagging concepts. It also provides most of the symbols and identifiers that are unique to instrumentation and gives practical...
Solutions to problems involving the body assemblies, actuators and accessories of control valves, as well as an overview of valve design and construction, this reference book includes discussions of applications, safety, troubleshooting, maintenance, testing, standards, valve-related...
1.1 This test method covers a test that can be used to compare the cavitation erosion resistance of solid materials. A submerged cavitating jet, issuing from a nozzle, impinges on a test specimen placed in its path so that cavities collapse on it, thereby causing erosion. The test is carried out...
This specification covers the minimum requirements for lathing and furring accessories and fasteners used as components of interior and exterior portland cement-based plaster assemblies for facilitating lathing and furring installation, cement plaster application, and functionality of the...
This specification covers special engineered fittings, appurtenances or valves for use in poly(vinyl chloride) or chlorinated poly(vinyl chloride) pipe and tubing systems. Fittings or appurtenances covered by this specification are generally either molded, fabricated, or assembled from molded or...
4.1 GCLs must be properly manufactured in a manner consistent with a minimum level of quality control as determined by in-house testing of the final product. This practice suggests the types of tests, the methods of the testing, and the minimum testing frequencies. MD = machine...
4.1 As determined by this test method, the pipe insulation lineal thermal resistance or conductance (and, when applicable, the thermal resistivity or conductivity) are means of comparing insulations which include the effects of the insulation and its fit upon the pipe, circumferential and...
1.1 This test method covers the tensile testing of aramid paper with thickness less than 1?mm. This test method includes testing procedures only and includes no specifications or tolerances. 1.2 The procedures given in this test method are for use with computer-controlled...
5.1 In most cases, because of the complexity of internal stresses and the variety of failure modes that can occur in this specimen, it is not generally possible to relate the short-beam strength to any one material property. However, failures are normally dominated by resin and interlaminar...
This specification covers special engineered fittings, appurtenances or valves for use in poly(vinyl chloride) or chlorinated poly(vinyl chloride) pipe and tubing systems. Fittings or appurtenances covered by this specification are generally either molded, fabricated, or assembled from molded or...
1.1 The guide covers procedures used commonly for the systematic collection of streamflow information. Continuous streamflow information is necessary for understanding the amount and variability of water for many uses, including water supply, waste dilution, irrigation, hydropower, and reservoir...
5.1 Uranium material is used as a fuel in certain types of nuclear reactors. To be suitable for use as nuclear fuel, the starting material shall meet certain specifications such as those described in Specifications C753, C776, C787, C833, C967, C996, and C1008, or as specified by the purchaser. The...
4.1 This practice establishes the basic minimum requirements for establishing quality control in radiographic examination of electronic components or devices, or both. Considerations addressed herein include definition of image quality indicator (IQI) features, procedures for imaging...
