ELEGL07

Electric Motor Voltage Dip Impact Mitigation

Abstract ↓

Electrical systems will experience electrical events in the form of voltage dips and outages. Depending on the magnitude and duration of these electrical events, electric motors can drop offline. The unexpected loss of an electric motor in a production unit can cause personnel safety issues, environmental issues, and loss profit opportunities (LPO). This Practice provides information which can be used to develop the basic premises on which to implement a voltage dip impact mitigation program to help overcome the adverse effects of production units dropping offline. The voltage dip impact mitigation program addresses the application of both under-voltage ride-through and under-voltage restart capabilities which should be added to the controls of electrical motors.

PCSCV001

Purchasing Requirements for Control Valves

Abstract ↓

This Practice describes the minimum general requirements for the control valve body construction, actuator, auxiliaries (e.g., positioner, limit switches, etc.), testing, inspection, and documentation. This Practice provides requirements for the format for providing data for each individual control valve, the method to be used for valve sizing, and other design considerations. For Control Valves sizing and selection see PIP PCCCV001 and PIP PCECV001.

This Practice does not include requirements for motor-operated valves, on-off valves intended for emergency isolation, and valves with hydraulic actuators. For On-Off Valves, see PIP PCCCV003, Remotely Actuated On-Off Valves Selection Criteria and PIP PCECV003, Guidelines for Application of Remotely Actuated On-Off Valves.
