Purge of bang? In an enclosed diesel engine acoustic module, diesel fuel with a flashpoint above 61 deg C falls on hot surface say 70 deg C. Ambient air temperature is 40 deg C. There is no purge or air change. I think the diesel fuel will evolve flammable vapours and eventually reach the LEL...
Many thanks. I'm experienced in obtaining CE marking for industrial machinery in the oil&gas industries (so PED and ATEX hold no surprises), but where I'm short is on experience in obtaining certification for commercial "white goods" being sold into a domestic environment. Installation and...
Fuel cell using atmospheric air and LNG or LPG as fuel to generate low voltage electricity (<12 V dc) fed to inverter to backfeed the grid (240 V ac), and with waste heat (650 deg C) used to heat domestic hot water system (approx 5 bar max).
There are many directives to comply with including...
Does anyone have any reliability/availability data for underwater vehicles (or preferably, autonomous underwater vehicles)? I'm looking at vehicles that operate in littoral (shallow) waters, say to 250 meters, and are capable of independent or programmable operation. Umbilical ROV machine data...

You need the Fluid Systems Division at Factory 3, recently integrated into the company but not represented on the site as yet - persistance may be required!
In the most basic terms, the bilge water is circulated...
I have only just come across this thread so please forgive a rather late contribution.
UK company Flight Refuelling Ltd - Fluid Systems manufacture a ceramic membrane bilge water separator system certified to MEPC.107(49)
While the MEPC stipulates 15ppm, the system is consistently operated at...
There is no difference in the repair times between scheduled and unscheduled replacement of failed component.
As I am looking at 'new to service' equipment, I only have theoretical figures to go on; hence the reliance on NPRD to derive MTBF values - unfortunately I have no actual data.
We must...
I have a mechanical component with a know MTBF, how can I determine what the inspection interval should be to give 90% and 95% confidence intervals to ensure a 98% availability?
Is this the same for systems and individual components?
Similar advice regarding electrical compenents/systems would...
I suggest you research Reverse Osmosis plants, normally associated with the production of fresh water from sea water. Some operate at the sort of pressures you are considering.
As many reverse osmosis plants use microfiltration techniques, a method of cleaning the filter will be necessary...
There is a Oil Content Monitor manufactured by Rivertrace Engineering Ltd that will detect oil content down to less than 5ppm, is adjustable, and provides volt free contacts for alarms or switching.
