Fresh water tank Inspection / Routine

 6 Monthly
  •    F.W. system pipelines  to be disinfected with 50 ppm chlorine solution for  4 hrs.
  •    Tank to be disinfected by 50 ppm solution of chlorine for 12 hrs.
  •    Tank Drained, Hosed with F.W., Cleaning with Rags

Yearly
  •  Manhole door gaskets to be renewed
  •  Suction / Filling V/V to be O/Hd
  •  Fill shore filling Pipeline  with 100 ppm Chlorine soln. & maaintain for 1 hour
  •  Disinfection of shore line
  •  Paint to be observed for cracks
  •  If Paint is cracked ~ surrounding area to be cleaned, brushing, chipping etc. (base metal to be exposed)
  •  Epoxy Paint to be used for painting ; sometimes the entire tank needs to be recoated  as touch up may not  be possible

    A tank used in food processing is not only for storing water; it may also be used to hold a variety of food goods and components. A Stainless steel process tank with a big capacity is ideal for storing grain or other bulk goods. This kind of tank is advantageous since it can keep vast quantities of materials fresh due to the tank's full seal. This allows you to purchase in bulk, saving you money on the price and preventing you from discarding expired components.

Differences between MC/MC-C and ME/ME-C engines

The electrohydraulic control mechanisms of the ME engine replace the following components of the conventional MC engine: Chain drive for camshaft Camshaft with fuel cams, exhaust cams and indicator cams Fuel pump actuating gear, including roller guides and reversing mechanism Conventional fuel pressure booster and VIT system Exhaust valve actuating gear and roller guides Engine driven starting air distributor Electronic governor with actuator Regulating shaft Engine side control console Mechanical cylinder lubricators. The Engine Control System of the ME engine comprises: Control units Hydraulic power supply unit Hydraulic cylinder units, including: Electronically controlled fuel injection, and Electronically controlled exhaust valve activation Electronically controlled starting air valves Electronically controlled auxiliary blowers Integrated electronic governor functions Tacho system Electronically controlled Alpha lubricators

Why is a man hole door elliptical in shape?

Any opening in a pressure vessel is kept to a minimum and for a man entry an elliptical hole  is lesser in size than the corresponding circular hole. More over it is prime concern to have a  smoothed generous radius at the corners to eliminate stress concentration. Hence other  geometrical shapes like rectangle and square are ruled out.  To compensate for the loss of material in the shell due to opening, a doubler ring has to be  provided around the opening. The thickness of the ring depends on the axis length along the  dirrection in which the stresses are maximum and the thickness of the shell. It is important to  align the minor axis along the length of the vessel, as the stress in this direction is  maximum. Longitudinal stress: Pd/2t where P= pressure inside the vessel, d= diameter of the arc, t=  thickness of the shell plating  Circumferential stress: Pd/4t  More over a considerable material and weight saving is achieved as minor is along the  direction of maximum stress.

Shell Expansion Plan

It is a two dimensional drawing of a three dimensional surface of the ship’s hull form. This plan is very useful for the following information:It is used for marking the location of a hull Damage on this plan by identifying the strake number , letter and frame number so that the exact location of the damage and also suggested repairs are marked in a localised copy. The shell expansion can be used for finding areas of painting surfaces such as topside, boot topping and bottom areas by applying Simpsons rules directly.  In the shell expansion the vertical scale used is different from the horizontal scale and a suitable adjustment has to be made when calculating areas. This becomes useful in solving disputes concerning areas of preparation and painting. It gives information on the thickness of the original strake which is indicated by the number in the circle shown in the strake.  The quality of steel used is also shown by letters A,B,D E and AH, BH,DH, EH.
