applications
For marine water transfer, check the applicable product curve, liquid properties, required operating point and installation geometry. Check the proposed arrangement against surface-mounted intake and discharge arrangement and seawater-compatible alloy schedule subject to liquid and duty review, then verify the operating point on the selected model curve.
For seawater cooling, provide the complete composition, concentration, temperature and seal-utility requirements. Check the proposed arrangement against surface-mounted intake and discharge arrangement and seawater-compatible alloy schedule subject to liquid and duty review, then verify the operating point on the selected model curve.
For coastal water systems, check the applicable product curve, liquid properties, required operating point and installation geometry. Check the proposed arrangement against surface-mounted intake and discharge arrangement and seawater-compatible alloy schedule subject to liquid and duty review, then verify the operating point on the selected model curve.
