HARDNESS TESTS
Hardness of metals can be measured in many different units. Some examples are BHN, DPH, Shore, Rockwell, etc. The testing unit used by Texas Stress, Inc. is the portable Brinell Testing Kit. As the name implies it is portable, easy to use and very accurate. Testing can be accomplished in hard to reach areas such as, elevated welds in overhead pipe racks, inside of process equipment, on modular skids and even in areas with limited or no light. The BHN test is a very quick and inexpensive method to verify metal harnesses or the effectiveness of the heat treatment. |
DIRECT FIRE EQUIPMENT
Luminous Flame Oil Burners:
-These burners are great in so many applications; from thermal drying to the PWHT of small to medium sized pressure vessels.
-Light, economical, and powerful; these units, powered by 110 volt AC, burn grade 2 diesel fuel.
-They burn efficiently and very clean leaving no residue,
perfect for use in fabrication shops and the petrochemical industry.
-Available only with skilled technician.
High Velocity Gas Burners:
-Refractory curing made easy.
-These burners are powerful and can generate a great deal of air velocity for achieving the right air/heat convection.
-These units will burn natural gas (supplied by customer) or propane, either fuel burns extremely clean and oil free.
-For vessels of all sizes, these units can be installed to produce a "first rate" heat treatment.
-Texas Stress, Inc. has successfully fired vessels up to 300' long and 36'-0" in diameter.
-Projects quoted individually. |
