Hi,
I need to know what the approximate viscosity of API 22 oil would be. there are limited resources on the internet that i can find. Is it similar to #6 oil where the viscosity can vary widely? I apologize if this is a dumb question, but I am not in the industry. any help is appreciated...
i am working on a new design for an electrical termination box for an resistance element heater. i am using a killark box rated as explosion proof suitable for class 1/ div 1 hazardous areas. the box has a 2" NPT opening in the back of it & a 3/4" NPT opening on the side for rigid conduit...
Hi,
I have received quotes for electric heaters to freeze protect a large water holding tank. One suggetsts a 25 KW (approx 85000 BTU/hr loss) heating requirement & one a 90 KW (approx 307000 BTU/hr loss)heating requirement. it is a 36' diameter x 40' high tank on a concrete slab w/ R-10.2...
good afternoon,
I have an electric resistance water boiler heater rated at 420 KW inside of an ASME vessel. Power is divided into 12 circuits drawing 44 amps each which is acceptable according to NEC 422.11(F) (circuits subdivided into < 48 amps/circuit - code listed below for reference). The...
Hello,
I need to find a bulb & capillary thermostat to control a heater in a hydraulic reservoir (to maintain about +60 degrees F). This will be used in a control box where the ambient temperature could go as low a -40 degrees F (military application). Does anyone know where to find a...
Hi,
I need to keep an OPEN TOP water tank from freezing & need to determine the approximate heat loss per unit area. (Minimum ambient temperature is 0 degrees F & I'd like to maintain 42 degrees f). I can calculate the losses through the walls of the tank but not the top-I have one chart for...
Hi, using a remotely mounted bulb and capillary thermostat for a project. Thermostat is in a NEMA 4 box, but the bulb & capillary will be run through a 3/4" screw tight coupling outside of the box to a tank...i need to seal around the capillary to keep moisture out of the box. I was thinking...
Hi,
Looking to heat up a solution of ammonium acetate/DI water solution in a n agitation tank...is 316SS acceptable? Operating Temp is 95 deg. C?(will be passivated & electropolished).
Thanks
Hi,
Designing a heating unit to raise the temperature of #6 oil containing sodium & vanadium to about 265 deg F. Will carbon steel corrode under these conditions or should 304 stainless be used for the construction?
Thanks
I am working on a system that will require a resistance heating element to aid in freeze protecting a seawater tank. There is no flow (static fluid). I need to slect a sheath alloy to be directly immersed in the fluid. The available materials are 316SS, 316LSS, Incoly 840, Incoloy 800, and...
Hi,
I am quoting a piece of equipment for a customer who only has a drawing of the part that they will need (existing system in europe). The spec shows a flange that is a DIN 2527 (100xPN16 304SS flange). I can't find much on the internet...does this have a raised face or a flat face? If...
Does anyone here know of someone who manufactures these types of connectors, or will this need to be custom?
I am essentially trying to find the right angle equivalent of an ERNI 593763 connector. Straight pin spec is attached, any help is appreciated!
Hi,
I'm pretty new to VB and have pretty much taught myself, so this should be pretty easy. I have created a pricing program in MS Excel w VB macros where I would like the user to input variables into a form, then variables would be entered into cells. I would like to:

Hi,
I am designing an oven whose frame is madde of steel tubing and is to be covered with .065" sheet metal. The sheets will be attached with rivets, and i need assistance with determining rivet spacing. The sheets will not see any load outside of the weight of the sheets. Would 6" spacing in a...
Hi,
I need to help design a drying oven for some parts. Unfortunately, I am not sure where to begin. We manufacture electric heaters , so as a cost saving measure are attempting to design an oven to dry heating elements and manufacture it in-house. I can calculate what is needed for heating...
Hi,
I've been asked by my boss to try to find someone to corbonitride some small steel parts. Our previous vendor has gone out of business and I am not sure where I can find another vendor. Cost is an issue.
Thanks for any help
I created an isometric view using the solview and soldraw commands on an object. I would like to change the z coordinates so that they are all zero. Is this possible?
