    installation of cables

    yes MI cable, sorry is Bus duct cheaper then MI cable? we went with MI cable due to retro-fitting and space limitations.

    installation of cables

    Have you thought about MIC Cable? we have used it to feed Mission critical locations and Fire pumps as well, speed of installation offset the the material cost for our project.

    hmm, todays news

    HAHA, no figured I would get input from people who know a whole lot more then I. It is on a respected news source and you know the sheep will believe it.

    Help With Liebert 3000 Unit

    68 deg F is really to cold for a Liebert, I belive there spec's say they are ok down to 68 but they perform much better at 72 deg F and that should be there field Min setpoint for temp, as for humidity pushing this much below 50% on DX alone might be trouble some, I hope you have a tight vapour...

    Insulation of Car Exhaust

    I would think cooling,the exhuast flow at the exh ports would improve scavenging, which would increase HP but decrease MPG, not sure what the torque would do. but it would be like a condenser on a gas turbine... thoughts? ( just me thinking outloud)

    Steam "Wetness" in Benchtop Steriliser- Measure?

    we have come across this many times, there are 2 products to measure steam quality 1) A condensing steam "calirometer" 2) very exspensive high temp humidity sensor the first one is reletivly cheap but has a very wide margen for operator error. that said we have found the best solution in our...

    Data Logging of a Chiller

    I dont have enough info - But that sounds more like a very lightly loaded chiller. What type of chiller - if possible provide brand and model #

    Tuning motorcycle carburettors

    I'd say where on the same page, I have those books and there pretty worn out from years of use. We have dimpled our intake runners to create small eddy's to help in A/F mixing and actually slightly reduce air flow (Yates SB ford Heads -nascar take offs) that where opened up a bit much for...

    Tuning motorcycle carburettors

    "Additional note...your peak power will be found at 12.5 to 13.8 to 1. Not lean at all. Lean is mean is an old term and will lead to disaster. If you tune for peak power you will not be lean at all." in a nut shell..your wrong and right, Peak HP will be achived at 14.7 to 1 A/F ratio the...

    Tuning motorcycle carburettors

    I have about 1200.00 into the data logger if you include the 8 Exh gas temp sensors and a few othe misc sensors I have, not including the lap top that can be connected to it for real time monitering on my car tuning projects. I guess my point is a dyno will tell you when your making peak HP...

    Tuning motorcycle carburettors

    just curious, Why do you feel a dyno is better then wide band O2 and exh gas temp readings? I have a small 8 chan data logging set up that I use to setup fuel injection bikes when custom tuning. and have used it on the "older" stuff too

    Water boiler tube burst

    What is the boiler rated for Lbs/hr and what is your actual peak firing rate? could it be erosion due to over-firing?

    Data Aire vs Liebert

    yes, money is part of it but if your use is mission critical go with the liebert, they are: more reliable and have better turn around on parts when needed, but yes they cost more.

    Piping loss's

    First off Thanks- I’m just trying to digest what I have been told as it contradicts my thoughts. Brand new pipe, so if you had multiple 90's to make a dbl offset you CAN accurately calculate the loss ? If anyone would like to see actual data from balancing I will share if anyone wants to ponder it.
