Gently used, book is clean and bright, untanned, with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Issued without a dust jacket. -- A technical guide focused on extending machinery life and reducing maintenance costs for piston-style compressors. Written by reliability experts Heinz P. Bloch and John J. Hoefner, it serves as a practical reference for anyone responsible for purchasing, installing, or servicing these machines in process industries. Core Subjects and Coverage: The book provides a systematic approach to compressor reliability, moving beyond generalities to offer actionable procedures. Key areas include: - Theory and Design: Discusses the fundamental principles of operation, component materials, and the application of reciprocating compressors; - Maintenance Procedures: Covers overhaul, repair, and preventive maintenance strategies designed to avoid unanticipated breakdowns and production stoppages; - Troubleshooting: Details how to identify and remedy common issues, such as high discharge temperatures, piston seizure, and knocking in cylinders; - Installation and Safety: Explains proper installation techniques and critical safety measures, such as lock-out procedures and managing gas leaks during overhauls; - Industry Applications: Tailors advice for diverse sectors including pulp and paper, mining, food processing, and pharmaceuticals. The book remains a staple for industrial practitioners because it focuses on the fundamental mechanical logic of reciprocating machinery. These compressors are uniquely suited for early symptom-cause identification, a core theme of Bloch's "failure avoidance" philosophy. N° de réf. du vendeur 012914
