Oil And Fuel Pump For Industry And Marine Systems

The CF15 whisper vane pump offers constant flow and quiet operation in pre-lube, transfer and process applications in industry and marine systems. Anyone installing or rebuilding a large engine should consider a pre-lube system. A substantial part of large engine lifetime wear occurs at dry starts after the lube oil has drained from the bearings and the oil galleries during shutdown. A pre-lube system greatly extends an engine's service life. The CF15 pump includes a self-contained, pressure bypass valve to prevent motor overload, and a low-pressure-loss check valve to prevent backflow.

It provides constant pressure, which is said to be particularly valuable in pre-lube applications to prevent backflow from the main engine lube pump. It delivers a 56L/min flow with AC, DC or compressed air motors. It is a self-priming and quiet-running vane pump. The whisper vane design provides low-noise pumping as well as low maintenance through the direct coupling of the pump heads to the motors. Applications span both industry and marine systems. Pumps are ideal for standby power installations and other large power generation sets. As pre-lube pumps, they will run quietly and require zero maintenance.

As a process pump, they are of interest where constant pressure or flow is required. Thanks to the self-contained pressure regulator and bypass, these pumps can supply several systems running in parallel. Any variations originating for any reason from one process will not affect the performance of any of the other processes running at the same time. As a positive displacement pump, it will self-prime and is claimed to be more efficient and quieter than a gear pump. It performs well with any kind of high-viscosity oil or fluid.

What is Class I Division 2?

Image
A Class I Division 2 is a location: (1) In which volatile flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are handled, processed, or used, but in which the liquids, vapors, or gases will normally be confined within closed containers or closed systems from which they can escape only in case of accidental rupture or breakdown of such containers or systems or in case of abnormal operation of equipment, or (2) In which ignitable concentrations of flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are normally prevented by positive mechanical ventilation, and which might become hazardous through failure or abnormal operation of the ventilating equipment. Class I Division 2 Classification Class I Division 2 refers to the ANSI/ISA 12.12.01 standard. This standard was previously UL1604 until UL recommended the newer ANSI/ISA standard be used and that all hazardous location products be certified under this standa

FUSE SIZING CONSIDERATIONS FOR HIGHER EFFICIENCY MOTORS

Image
When selecting the proper fuse for short circuit protection in motor starting applications, it is important to not only ensure that the fuse will not nuisance open during motor start up times, but also that the fuse will coordinate as required with overload relays. When sizing fuses between 125% and 150% of the motor nameplate current, several advantages, including ease of coordination with an overload device, a smaller disconnect, and increased short circuit protection from a lower fuse rating, can be achieved. However, if sizing at this level prevents the motor from starting, it may then be necessary to increase the fuse ampere rating and it then becomes important to know the NEC sizing limitations. As of June 1, 2016, the US Department of Energy has mandated that newly manufactured electric motors will need to meet NEMA Premium® efficiency standards. As motor efficiencies increase, motor locked rotor currents can also be expected to increase. In addition to this, with across-the-lin

7/8 16UN Connectors that Provide 600 Volts and 15 Amps

TURCK announces new A-Size 3 and 4-pin 7/8 16UN powerfast™ connectors that provide up to 600 Volts and 15 Amps of power. These IP67 rated connectors provide a modular wiring system designed to handle high current applications for machine power distribution, while providing resistance to vibration commonly associated with conveyors, motors and material handling applications. The cordsets are available with a tray rated, exposed run PVC flexlife ® cable, with or without STOOW rating, and 14 AWG wires that allow you to replace hard wiring with a robust, quick disconnect system that saves the time and money spent installing a conduit system. The A-Size powerfast line offers male and female, straight connectors, standard and custom lengths, and pigtails or extensions. To make the system complete, fully encapsulated mating receptacles, with 1/2”-14 NPT mounting threads are available.
