The project in context
Technology in its operating context.
The project formed part of the instrumentation for a gas-processing facility. The supply covered transmitters, local indication and measuring-assembly components prepared for subsequent installation.
Scope of work
- 30 main transmitters and 11 ABB JDF200 indicators
- 26 assemblies with extension rods and stilling wells
- 4 separately packed displacers and 4 measuring chambers
- Consolidation into 6 wooden crates
Execution
Dispatch preparation separated the main instruments and local indicators from the longer mechanical components. The package was divided between six crates according to the construction and dimensions of the assemblies.
Transmitters and local indication
Four crates contained a total of 30 main transmitters. The same supply included 11 ABB JDF200 local indicators for reading the measured value near the equipment.
- The instrument crates contained 8, 8, 6 and 8 transmitters respectively.
- The indicators supplemented selected instruments; they were not 11 additional transmitters.
Mechanical assemblies and dispatch
For 26 instruments, the displacers, extension rods and stilling wells were packed together in a long crate. The remaining four measuring assemblies had separately packed displacers and chambers.
The longest crate measured 5.97 m. The complete package had a net weight of 1,991 kg and a gross weight of 2,501 kg including packaging. The packing arrangement was intended for enclosed warehouse storage.
Outcome
A dispatched instrument package with mechanical components for 30 measuring assemblies.
