HI Releases Complete Set of All ANSI/HI Pump Standards on CD-ROM

17.06.2010

Hydraulic Institute (HI) has introduced CD-ROM Version 2.2, its latest offering of ANSI/HI Standards presented in a CD format.

An update of an earlier CD offering, the new release, Version 2.2, is “state of the art” complete and contains a full, unabridged set of all 29 current Standards on one compact, convenient-to-use and easily portable CD-ROM. The cost is $950 and represents a savings of more than $1,600 over purchasing Standards individually. Orders for the new CD are now being expedited via the HI eStore.

Included in Version 2.2’s set of 29 Standards are three recent critical-content Standard updates:

  • ANSI/HI 1.1-1.2 - Rotodynamic (Centrifugal) Pumps for Nomenclature and Definitions
  • ANSI/HI 9.6.4 - Rotodynamic Pumps for Vibration Measurements and Allowable Values
  • ANSI/HI 9.6.5 - Rotodynamic (Centrifugal and Vertical) Pumps for Condition Monitoring
  • and one new Standard ANSI/HI 9.6.6 - Rotodynamic Pumps for Pump Piping

According to Gregg Romanyshyn, the Hydraulic Institute’s Technical Director, “The new CD represents a tremendous convenience, in addition to being a great value! Users can gain immediate access to over 1,600 pages of the most current Standards simply by pointing and clicking . . . and do so whenever or wherever access to Standards is needed--- in the office or in the field.”

Features of Version 2.2 include: searchable PDF files, hypertext links from indexes to each Standard/Section/Page, bookmarks, and annotations. Printing and commenting are also enabled.

Current users of CD-ROM Version 2.1 can easily upgrade to Version 2.2; no additional software is required. However, users of CD-ROM Version 2.0 who did not previously upgrade to Version 2.1, will not be able to directly advance to Version 2.2 or apply future upgrades. Installation of CD-ROM Version 2.1 is a prerequisite for all upgrades. For a limited time, HI will continue to sell the 2.1 CD upgrade to assist Version 2.0 users.

Against a backdrop of increasing energy costs, significant savings can be made by upgrading old motors to more efficient modern alternatives.

With this in mind, Thomas Marks, General Manager and Secretary at the Association for Electrical and Mechanical Trades, looks at how a motor’s efficiency can be improved as part of a repair or refurbishment and highlights some things you should consider.
