  • Publication number: 20180163711
    Abstract: Systems and methods for monitoring the performance of reciprocating compressors are disclosed. The monitoring system includes inductive power generation at individual cylinders of the compressor, alleviating the need to run power supply and conduits to each of the cylinders. The inductive system also allows piston position to be determined at each cylinder. Data acquired at each cylinder can be telemetered to a central hub for processing.

  • Publication number: 20090057316
    Abstract: An electrical enclosure includes an electrical box and a cover mounted onto the electrical box. A 3/8-7 lag bolt extends through the cover and engages a coil nut for securing the cover to the electrical box or underground enclosure. The coil nut includes a body having two ends with an aperture therebetween. The aperture has a continuous internal thread formed between the first and second ends. The size of the continuous internal thread is seven individual threads per inch such that the distance, or pitch, between first and second centers of first and second threads, respectively is 0.143 inches. The pitch and the diameter determine the seven threads per inch size of the continuous thread by accounting for the minor diameter and the major diameter of the nut.
