Aeroquip Offers Rubber Insert

Sound Isolation Couplings

For Shipboard Applications

Aeroquip's RISIC 3 and 3HT rubber insert sound isolation couplings for shipboard piping applications, are designed to attenuate sound transmissions of machinery and piping, while accommodating various types of pipe move- ment.

Aeroquip RISIC 3 couplings have been quali- fied for ship water and oil service to 150 psig and + 160°F. Aeroquip RISIC 3HT couplings are approved for feed water service to 150 psig and + 250°F.

Qualification tests have proven the RISIC 3 and 3HT couplings meet or exceed U.S. Navy requirements for acoustical performance, me- chanical impedance, flex pressure cycling, accel- erated aging and hydrostatic burst pressure.

Aeroquip RISIC 3 and 3HT couplings offer improved performance by using the natural abil- ity of an elastomer to dampen vibration and sounds, while allowing angular flexibility of ± 5° (10° total). Metal reinforcements are molded within the elastomeric bearing to support the internal pressure and axial loads.

Offered in sizes from 3 inches through 10 inches, Aeroquip RISIC 3 and 3HT couplings are available as either complete new units or conversion kits for RISIC 1 units

Complete information, including specifica- tions and technical data, cross reference part numbers and materials for Aeroquip's RISIC 3 and 3HT rubber insert sound isolation cou- plings, can be found in Aeroquip Bulletin 8313.

ONE OF TWO LPG (liquid petroleum gas) tanks built at the Beaumont yard of Bethlehem

Steel Corporation is being loaded onto a barge for inland waterway service. Built for Fredeman

Shipyard, Sulphur, La., each tank measures 176 feet long, almost 17 feet in diameter, and has a capacity of 281,000 gallons. Fabrication of the two tanks required a total of 480 tons of steel.

MAN Gutehoffnungshutte GmbH (MAN

GHH) has developed, in collaboration with a machine tool supplier, a portable large-capacity machining facility for the processing of large and heavy components.

The machining unit can be used both at work- shops and at erection sites of power stations, chemical factories, refineries, offshore plants, etc. It can be disassembled for transport, with the heaviest unit component, i.e., the position- ing turntable, weighing 14 tons.

The new facility can be employed for a great variety of machining operations, including lath- ing of sealing and mating faces, milling of sur- faces and cut-outs in machinery and large pres- sure vessels, drilling, and thread-whirling.

Technical data: lathing diameter, 4,420 to 12,460 mm; milling diameter, 3,786 to 11,830 mm; vertical spindle adjustment through 2,607 mm, NC control.
