Nervous System

The Nervous System

The Nervous System The “GREAT” and mighty Nervous System…or The BRAIN as most of us call it.  What makes this organ unique is that within it lies the ability for Humans to know oneself.  This feature distinguishes and sets the Human species apart from the rest of creation.  This ability is known as “Consciousness or […]

Displacement Pumps: Screw Pump

What is a Screw Pump? A Screw Pump is a rotary, positive displacement pump that can have more than one screw to transfer high or low viscosity fluids along an axis. Single Screw A single screw rotary pump is also known as a progressive cavity or PC pump. The single screw pump consist of only […]

Instrumentation Basics: Measurement

Measurement Variables Measurement and control of process variables within a production, or manufacturing area is defined as Instrumentation. An instrument is a device that measures and/or regulates physical quanity/ process variables such as… Flow Temperature Level Pressure Instrumentation plays a key part in the automation of modern day process operations. There are many variables that […]

Globe Valves

What are Globe Valves? Globe valves are a highly common valve in the process industry. They be used for on/off applications, but are generally used for precise throttling applications. Globe valves have a greater pressure drop across the valve then other of valves. This pressure drop occurs, due to a 90 degree turn, the process […]

Process Technology: Jet Pumps

What are Jet Pumps? Jet pumps are used to lift liquid from a well. A specially-designed jet is engineered to utilize the venturi effect. The venturi effect is a drop in fluid pressure that results when an incompressible fluid flows through a constricted section of pipe. Operation of Jet Pumps In order for jet pumps […]

Centrifugal Pumps

Centrifugal Force            Centrifugal pumps are a Dynamic type pump that operate on the principle of centrifugal force. Centrifugal force is a force that tends to move objects away from the center in a system undergoing circular motion.   Basic Components The casing on a centrifugal pump is designed to contain […]

Testing the Voltage before Touching

Testing a Voltage Before Touching Could Save Your Life! In this procedure, we will be looking at the “Test Before Touch” method when properly confirming a circuit is de-energized. We will review the following concepts: The Test Before Touch Principles Key learning by one company The TBT procedure Other testing concerns Most of our discussion […]

Urinary System

Urinary System Explained

The Urinary, or Excretory System is another system by which the body rids itself of unwanted Toxins or (waste). Basically, the urinary system’s main purpose is to maintain the body’s “homeostasis”. In other words, the urinary system’s main function is to maintain the body’s acid-base balance. It is important to know, the human organism was […]
