PULSCO Inc. Irvine, CA

ABB Wickliffe, OH

ccording to PULSCO, its engineered Liquid Pulsation Dampeners (Acoustic Filters) offer a number of advantages for end-users dealing with pulsation, vibration and noise problems in fluid-piping systems. The result is reduced piping and component deterioration and a quieter environment. PULSCO’s solutions can be designed to meet a variety of industrial codes including ASME, API and ANSI, using any material, in any thickness to compensate for temperature, pressure and flow conditions. The diameter and length, as well as the inlet and configuration can be varied to meet specific installation situations. There’s no gas charge to maintain or bladder to replace. With no moving parts, maintenance is minimal.

BB now offers Parts Fingerprint, a spare-parts-management optimization service for critical ABB processautomation systems and products. The service reviews the effectiveness of existing spare-parts-management practices and identifies potential risk associated with insufficient stock, overstock, out-of-date inventory and end-of-life-cycle issues. It includes an on-site spare-parts-inventory validation, and comprehensive analysis of stock conditions, status, stocking levels, version management, warranty management, part criticality and historical parts usage. Existing processes and conditions are compared with established ABB best practices. The resulting report provides recommendations for improving overall spares management, including cost-saving strategies, and management of issues related to equipment lifecycle status and equipment supportability.
