Article: Analysis Of Composite Non-Metallic Enclosures For Use By Water/Wastewater Electrical Engineers Many perceived roadblocks to the use of non-metallic electrical enclosures for water and wastewater applications result from the lack of knowledge as to effective uses of non-metallic materials and/or the comparative performance benefits of non-metallic enclosures versus metallic alternatives. Often, the perception is that composite non-metallics are inferior to metallic materials. In reality, the opposite is frequently true and the intent of this paper is to detail the reasons why.

Application Note: Flare Gas Monitoring Systems Flare stacks are used in many industries to burn off unwanted waste gas byproducts, or flammable gases released by pressure relief valves during unplanned over-pressuring of plant equipment. Applications include oil and gas well drilling operations, oil refineries, chemical process plants, gas distribution infrastructure, and landfills. By FLIR Systems, Inc. 03/25/2009 1.35 MB
Application Note: Electric Substation Monitoring Electric power utilities are faced with an aging infrastructure, increasing risk of blackouts and brownouts, costly unplanned maintenance, security threats to remote facilities, and rising costs. As part of a government/industry initiative, utilities are looking for ways to address these issues that will improve the reliability of electric power delivery while reducing costs.

Application Note: Warehouse Asset Protection Smoke detectors and sprinkler systems are absolutely necessary to minimize the risk to warehouse contents. Still, they represent a response to fire that has already broken out. FLIR’s Warehouse Asset Protection Systems go a step further by providing an early warning response to hot spots that are detected with thermal imaging infrared (IR) cameras.

Application Note: Mill Ladle Refractory Monitoring Steel mill ladles have limited lives. As their refractory linings wear or develop breaks due to shock, the outer part of a ladle can be exposed to excessive temperatures. If not caught in time, the result can be ladle disintegration and a molten metal breakout, threatening the lives of workers and destroying equipment. FLIR Systems, Inc. 03/25/2009 2.93 MB
Application Note: Critical Vessel Monitoring Many fluid vessels, such as chemical reactors, storage tanks, and piping systems, need to be monitored to spot abnormal temperatures and trends that warn of product loss or unsafe conditions. Traditionally, this has been accomplished with point contact temperature sensors such as thermocouples or RTDs. By FLIR Systems, Inc. 03/25/2009 3.04 MB
Application Note: Bulk Material Combustion Warning Systems Many bulk materials, such as coal and organic wastes, are stored as large piles in open yards where air and moisture promote decomposition and exothermic reactions that raise the pile’s temperature. Since self-ignition usually starts within the pile’s lower layers, a full-blown fire can develop before it becomes apparent due to smoke and flames. By FLIR Systems, Inc. 03/25/2009 2.72 MB
