Machinery Component Maintenance and Repair, Fourth Edition, Volume three in the Practical Machinery Managment for Process Plants series provides the latest research and industry approaches in easy to understand, bite-sized chunks. Extending the life of existing machinery is the name of the game in the process industries, and this classic text is still the best, most practical and comprehensive source for doing just that. This updated edition is completely revised and updated throughout, especially in sections regarding Maintenance Organization and Control for Multi-Plant Corporations, Repair and Maintenance of Rotating Equipment Components, and Protecting Machinery Parts Against Loss of Surface.

The authors use their decades of experience and draw upon real-world examples to demonstrate that the application of their techniques provides a basis for equipment management, uptime maximization, and reduced maintenance costs. The text explores reliability assessment techniques such as Failure Mode, Effect Analysis, and Fault Tree Analysis of commonly encountered rotating machinery. These are all highly effective techniques that the engineer can apply to maximize uptime and thereby maximize production and profitability. *Provides the tools to drastically improve machinery productivity and performance *Bridges the gap between the theory of "reliability engineering" and the practical day-to-day measures that lead to machinery uptime *Authoritative reference for maximizing the uptime of process equipment

Maximizing Machinery Uptime (Volume 5) (Practical Machinery Management for Process Plants, Volume 5)

The names Bloch and Geitner are synonymous with machinery maintenance and reliability for process plants. They save companies like Dow and Equilon millions of dollars a year by extending the life of rotating machinery in their plants. Extending the life of existing machinery is the name of the game in the process industries, not designing new machinery. This series by Bloch and Geitner was the first and is still the best, most comprehensive source for doing just that. This classic text on reliability has been revised to include all new material on risk management, pre-grouted bases, laser alignment, cartridge seals maintenance, and many other topics which have undergone many developments since the last revision.

Machinery Component Maintenance and Repair (PRACTICAL MACHINERY MANAGEMENT FOR PROCESS PLANTS)

UNKNO

This updated edition is an invaluable source of practical cost-effective maintenance, repair, installation, and field verification procedures for machinery engineers. It is filled with step-by-step instructions and quick-reference checklists that describe preventive and predictive maintenance for major process units such as vertical, horizontal, reciprocating, and liquid ring vacuum pumps, fans and blowers, compressors, turboexpanders, turbines, and more. Also included are sections on machinery protection, storage, lubrication, and periodic monitoring. A new section examines centrifugal pumps and explains how and why they continue to fail. More new information focuses on maintenance for aircraft derivative gas turbines. This revised edition gives special attention throughout to maintenance and repair procedures needed to ensure efficiency, performance, and long life.

Practical Machinery Management for Process Plants: Volume 3, Second Edition: Machinery Component Maintenance and Repair

Here is the ultimate reference for ascertaining the functionality and remaining life of industrial process equipment. Packed with graphs, figures, photos, and checklists, this edition of An Introduction to Machinery Reliability Assessment is the most approachable and useful book on this topic. This single volume contains dozens of assessment techniques based on probability and statistical analysis. Theoretical and practical contexts are given for the various methods, which include failure mode and effect analysis, risk and hazard assessment, fault tree analysis, Weibull analysis, and field reliability assessment. The second edition now contains expanded treatments of turbomachinery (particularly centrifugal pumps), Weibull analysis techniques, and equipment safety checklists. Most importantly, it includes a new chapter focusing on mechanical structures and piping. New appendixes on safety design checklists and installation reviews and an updated glossary enhance the book's utility and practical application, making it a complete single source of machinery reliability assessment techniques.
