STRIKO process technology provides new and existing customers with special forms for inquiry specification in which the customer, alongside the general information, also specifies the...

Documentation, technical

A technical documentation, structured logically and clearly, includes all documents describing a technical product. It is also referred to as product documentation. All relevant information...

Final acceptance

Is carried out before delivery to the customer depending on the classification of the pressure equipment. Here, pressure equipment is to be subjected to the...

Flow rate

The flow rate (or flow velocity) is a physical size and defines the speed in a flow, in a directed movement of particles or in...

Forward acting rupture disc

Bursting discs are pressure relief devices protecting a vessel or a system from damaging high or low pressure by making a disposable membrane burst. Bursting...

Fouling

Refers to general contaminants / impurities. In relation to the heat exchanger, fouling may occur in the jacket area (heating medium) and in the product...

Fragmentation

The term fragmentation refers to the area characteristic of a bursting disc upon reaching the burst pressure. Depending on various factors, bursting discs may open...

Gas cushion (with reverse acting rupture discs)

When using reverse acting rupture discs it must be ensured that there is always a gas cushion between the bursting disc and the medium to...

Gas exchange area

Gas exchange is a physical process whereby gases (sometimes separated by a permeable membrane, sometimes by openings or pores) are spatially redistributed between two compartments,...

Goodness of mixture

The goodness of mixture is a measure of the homogeneity or uniformity of a mix and is calculated from statistic base items. The coefficient of...

Graphite bursting disc

The advantages of bursting discs made of graphite are their high resistance to corrosion, a good price-performance ratio and an easy assembly. Furthermore, they are...

Heat capacity
