Hello,
I am replacing the gold plated pressure seal gasket on a 20" inch stop check valve(Rockwell Edwards 4007 model)with a graphite seal.
The pressure seal bonnet and graphite seal ring are pulled up tight with the 1" bonnet retainer studs.
Will the torque values on the retainer nuts be...
I have a nuisance oil leak that is getting a lot of attention from management since it has been deemed a safety issue.
The oil is mostly coming up the four bolt holes on the bearing cap. We usually go out and retorque while online (nuclear power plant) and then replace the gasket during...
Sorry for the graphic description but that really is what it looks like.
The lube oil cooler for our Feedwater turbine/pump became fouled(as made evident by the higher temp and lower delta temp). We pulled the tube bundle out and found a clear and greenish slime on the tube fins. Chemisrty...
I am having a leaking problem with the following valve:
Rockwell-Edwards Hermavalve
3/4" Model 15104T Class 2
I have two of these valves in series for isolation. A globe valve for isolation would not have been my first choice; but, that is what I am stuck with. The valves began leaking soon...
We have a turbine for which we have, in the past, brought in an outside vibration firm to collect data during startup (phase angle and magnitude) to be used in the future for a balance shot. We would like to do this ourselves with equipment from another supplier.
My question is, how do we...
Are the old glass panes wavy because of flow downwards over time or were they made that way originally?
Could this be replicated by heating a new pane of glass?
Thanks,

I have a relief valve (10psi,3/4 in, used for lube oil) that has been giving us problems. I am certain the problem is caused by the change in viscosity of the oil over the ranges of 60-100 deg F. However, a number of people I work with believe the spring(steel)stiffness is changing. I am sure...
I wanted to reproduce the wavy glass in my parents old house with a similar pane(and yes it is because I broke it). Can this be done by heating the glass in an oven?
I have heard that newer glass panes are different. Is this true?
