general certificate

Document Type Information

Details and background about this document type.

Description

A document certifying compliance with specified requirements. [e.g., certificates needed for re-certifying, occupancy certificate, product certificates].Not to be used if a more specific document type can be used. Can be used for singular/specialty deliverables which do not have a unique document type.

Equipment

Equipment that requires this document type.

rotameter flow meter

equipment class

A variable area flow meter which consists of a tapered tube of glass with a float inside that is pushed up by flow and pulled down by gravity.

seal

equipment class

A physical object intended to reduce or prevent the passage of fluid through an opening.

snatch block

equipment class

A block through which a rope can be reeved without access to an end.

solenoid valve

equipment class

A valve that has linear action which is fitted with a solenoid for quick operation.

sound attenuator

equipment class

A device decreasing noise in a HVAC system.

spreader bar

equipment class

A beam that is used to spread ropes or slings when lifting.

strainer

equipment class

A filter that is separating solid particles from a fluid by passing the fluid through a wire mesh, screen or metal plates containing perforations or slits.

switchgear and controlgear

equipment class

A physical object that is a general term covering switching devices and their combination with associated control, measuring, protective and regulating equipment, also assemblies of such devices and equipment with associated interconnections, accessories, enclosures and supporting structures.

transmitter

equipment class

A physical object that is an element that receives a process variable signal from a sensor and converts it into an output signal.

trolley

equipment class

A vehicle that is intended for transporting heavy loads.

turbine flow meter

equipment class

A velocity flow meter that uses a multi bladed rotor to measure fluid flow rate in units of volumetric flow through a closed conduit.

ultrasonic flow meter

equipment class

A velocity flow meter that measures the velocity of a flow by measuring the time difference between an ultrasonic pulse sent in the flow direction and an ultrasound pulse sent opposite the flow direction.

ultrasonic level element

equipment class

An element intended to determine a level based on ultrasonic sound waves.

venturi tube

equipment class

A pipe or tube that has a constriction with a relative long passage with a smooth coned entry and exit.

vessel

equipment class

A container intended for storage and/or processing of fluids.

vortex flow meter

equipment class

A flow meter that measures the velocity of a fluid in a pipe by detecting the frequency of vortices being shed from a specially shaped obstructing element in the fluid stream.

winch

equipment class

A powerful machine with one or more drums on which to coil a rope, cable, or chain for hauling or hoisting.

wire hoist

equipment class

A hoist utilizing a wire-rope for suspending load. Wire hoists are normally electrically powered, but also (hand) lever types exists.
