Industrial Reference Service

Systems of classification very often follow the application fields, e.g. the catalogues of the Institute for Reference Materials and Measurements (IRMM), the National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST), Laboratory of the Government Chemist (LGC), etc. or the database for certified reference materials COMAR. In all application fields like food and agriculture, environment, health and safety, industry and services, etc., reference materials are used for ...

A nalytical Reference Service (ARS) is a voluntary association of 302 laboratories responsible for the detection, identification, and measurement of contaminants in the environment. These participants include 51 municipal, 88 state, 43 Federal, and 36 foreign agencies 59 industries and 25 universities.

Besides the regular Cross Reference Service provided by Scott on a quarterly basis, we arranged in 1985 a Round Robin testing program among nine laboratories in the Natural Gas Industry. In this program a cylinder with synthetic natural gas mixture was manufactured and analyzed by Scott, then sent to participating laboratories for analysis and returned back to Scott for final analysis. The results were published. Table 5 shows the precision of analysis by Scott and by the nine laboratories. 

Type 2 coordination is more prevalent and commonly used for all industrial applications. Below, we concentrate on coordination Type 2, permitting the least damage and longer service life. This coordination can safely withstand normal fluctuations in system parameters and operating conditions during normal working. It is always advisable to verify the authenticity of the coordination in a laboratory. For procedure, to establish the type of co-ordination, refer to lEC 60298. To achieve the required precise coordination we discuss a few typical cases below. 

An examination of the above standards as they apply to the gas turbine and its auxiliaries are further examined in this section. The ASME B 133.2 basic gas turbines and the API standard 616, gas turbines for the petroleum, chemical, and gas industry services are intended to cover the minimum specifications necessary to maintain a high degree of reliability in an open-cycle gas turbine for mechanical drive, generator drive, or hot-gas generation. The standard also covers the necessary auxiliary requirements directly or indirectly by referring to other listed standards. 

One example is Finland, where in 1999 the EPS system was chosen as the reference method in the area of building services, including industrial air tech nology. 

In the design of equipment for the manufacture of sterile ophthalmic (and nonophthalmic) pharmaceuticals, manufacturers and equipment suppliers are turning to the advanced technology in use in the dairy and aerospace industries, where such concepts as CIP (clean-in-place), COP (clean-out-of-place), automatic heliarc welding, and electropolishing have been in use for several years. As a guide here, the reader is referred to the so-called 3A Standards of the dairy industry issued by the U.S. Public Health Service [267],...
