Defeating safety interlocks in control systems can present a significant safety hazard to personnel and equipment. Considerations in the development of a corporate safety system override (SSO) procedure are discussed. The procedure can significantly reduce the likelihood of injuries and equipment damage. Objectives of the SSO procedure are given, and the SSO system design is discussed. Monitoring the SSO procedure is also discussed.<>

A framework for a quantitative decision process for the choosing of the optimal type of heat tracing system is given. The three necessary factors for maximizing the reliability of the heat tracing, reliable component parts, correct design, and proper installation and commissioning, are discussed. Personal computers give the engineer a powerful tool to help analyze a potential heat tracing system. A computer program, ASAP, is described which will help a design engineer study the total installed cost (TIC) and the total operating cost (TOC). TIC is made up of two components, material cost and labor cost to install the heat tracing system. TOC is also made up of two components, energy cost and maintenance cost. Each component is described with emphasis on the differences between steam and electrical tracing. With this computer tool, an engineer can spend a few hours on developing a number of scenarios which should point to the optimum type of heat tracing.<>

Electrical motor bearing fluting has been defined as damage due to electrical current discharge through a motor bearing. Bearing race metal is electroplated onto the bearing balls. Close inspection reveals microscopic pits on bearing ball and race surfaces. A DC motor frame was completely isolated from ground except by a single grounding conductor with applied armature and field voltage. No motor shaft load was connected to the test motor. Motor bearing fluting ground currents were measured and stored with a high speed oscilloscope (50-mHz bandwidth). Waveforms were recorded photographically. With the motor running parallel with the paper machine front drum winder motor (known to have a history of fluting problems), field voltage transients on the field modules were also applied to the isolated test motor. A Dranetz meter was applied to the DC field supply module to verify the transient voltage magnitude and duration. An oscilloscope was connected across the ground shunt. Motor bearing currents were recorded with waveforms close to those expected under actual motor conditions. These meters recorded the wave shape, level, and ground current pulse duration that actually flowed through the motor bearings while rotating at operating speed.<>

Power quality problems can result from unbalances in either the system load or the system components. These unbalances can result in overheating of system components, difficulty in controlling equipment, and circulating currents in the delta winding circuits of machines. Appropriate system voltage and current measurements combined with symmetrical component analysis can determine the source of these system unbalances. A case study is presented.<>

The author addresses the issue of millwide control using a PLC-based platform with a unified, simple programming language for all mill areas, from the control of sophisticated sectional drives on high-speed paper machines up to MD and CD profile controls. Emphasis is placed on maximizing uptimes in the form of sophisticated diagnostic tools which will be further developed and enhanced. The modularity of the system allows the simple single cell or island solution to be expanded, while still retaining overall transparency, and the standardized Ethernet bus allows a true open architecture, permitting flexibility in vendor selection.<>

The concept of basic-skill deficits in today's workforce when viewed in the context of industries' need to compete in the global economy is addressed. A brief summary of the reasons that workplace literacy has become a contemporary issue is presented. Terms and background concepts that are needed for a full understanding of the subject are defined. Three case studies are included showing what some companies in the pulp and paper industry have done to address literacy needs. Suggestions for individuals needing to deal with document redesign are offered, as well as a broad outline of what the industry as a whole might profitably do to limit the impact of skill deficits in the next several years.<>
