Guys,
API 526 is the standard reference for PSV sizing. But as per my awareness, it's only up to ANSI 2500 rating.
If we got a PSV at a pipeline (e.g. Gas Re-injection Flare) at API 10,000 psi rating, how do we size it? Does API 526 still applicable?
The pipe flanges can be refered to API 6A...
Hi all,
Motor actuated control valve shall have limit switch, but for pneumatic and hydraulic usually all SDV will have limit switch but not necessarily for Control Valve?
Any comments?
Thanks
Dear all,
I beleive that taking the accuracy required for the Wet Gas meter will be called the uncertainty. Is it the correct practise?
How do we determine an accuracy of a Wet Gas meter since it's two phase. Meter that works fine with gas usually doesn't do so for liquid. I'm going to take...
Hi guys,
Flowmetering is new to me. I come acroos my company standard document, and it stated that for an oriface plate, is shall be ANSI 300 as minimum.
According to that, if the pipeline is using ANSI 150 pounds, but the oriface plate still need to be ANSI 300. Any technical reason for that...
Dear all,
I think I've come across some statement in ASME VIII that body and bonnet shall be in different material (please correct me if I'm wrong).
It there any technical reason for this? as per my current understanding, same material will ensure similar Pressure-Temperature rating.
Any body...
Dear all,
I'm seeing a document that denotes a membrane actuator. I've never know it before. Is it the other name for Diaphragm Actuator?
If it's not. I would like to get a good reference of these membrane actuator for my study?
I also welcome any comment regarding a selction of actuator for...
Hi all,
I always come across integrated Level Gauge (magnetic type) with Transmitter (usually magnetostrictive) in market.
Some times, we cannot use magnetic type of Level Gauge thus selecting option of reflex type or trasnparent type (genrally known as Flat Glass Level Gauge).
Has anybody...
Hi all, greeting..
All process is controled and monitored by Process Control System(PCS) often called DCS system. On top of that we got a Safety System to monitor the process condition in a harzardous application/area.
Both can be integrated to work with each other.
If we want to simplified...
Hi all,
I would like to ask, why some vessel is lined and some is unlined?
Usually we are using 316SS as the material or DUPLEX. Any body got comparison of these two? and what makes them to use exotic material like Hastelloy C?
Thanks in advance

Hi all,
I've start my journey as an Instrumentation Engineer after graduating. My background is actually in Electronic Engineering.
I humbly wanted to seek advise about:
1. What kind of book or reference that is very good to built the foundation in Instrumentation?
2. Is there any type of...
Hi all,
I'm a newbee and glad to meet all of you.
In most Capacitive Level measurement instrument, got an inactive area(extra insulated probe, a little bit longer than the electrode). Does this really needed?
What is the benefit of this inactive area?
Do we have a regulation or formula tu...
