Systran Donner Introduces Model 914 Marine Fire Protection System The safety systems division of Systron Donner, Concord, Calif., has been producing industrial and ma- rine fire protection systems for over 20 years. The Systron Donner Model 914 marine fire protection system is de- signed to meet U.S. Navy require- ments for rapid fire detection, warn- ing and suppression in small boat engine rooms, machinery spaces, storage lockers and other hazard areas. Typical applications include workboats, patrol boats, dive boats, landing craft and mine hunters/ sweepers. The electrically supervised 914 system includes the Systron Donner pneumatic fire/overheat detector, main and reserve extinguishers, a multifunction system controller with repeater display and optional re- mote release stations. The controller incorporates a number of operating modes and fea- tures, including a manual or auto- matic operation switch. The 914 controller provides continuous fault monitoring and is available in an aluminum or a stainless steel enclo- sure. The system is reported to be light- weight and rugged. It is cost-effec- tive in that it draws a standby power of 60 mA at 24 Vdc. A typical 914 system with two 33 pound capacity Halon extinguishers weighs approxi- mately 156 pounds.

The bro- chure is meant to help guide people in industries which depend on the quality of their water. Myron L meters are used to check total dissolved solids, which can cause scale or corrosion in boiler water and boiler condensate. For boiler water, conductivity readings are used to determine the optimum blowdown schedule and for check- ing boiler condensate. The Myron L Controlstik Systems regulate the flow of rinse water, conserve water and can help reduce investment in waste treatment equipment, the manufacturer claims.

The MFPX 307 is a reconfigured design which inte- grates ALCAP functional technol- ogy and the mechanical design of the company's MMPX range of con- trolled partial-discharge separators. Designed to replace the FOPX 607 separator for cleaning of fuel oil with densities up to 1,010 kg per/m3 at 15 degrees C for marine and power ap- plications, the MFPX 307 is also suitable for cleaning distillate and marine diesel oil (MDO). hi Alfa-Laval's MFPX 307 separator replaces the FOPX 607 separator, providing higher capacity and increased flexibility. The new unit offers users a broader application and capacity range than was available with the FOPX 607. The separation system comprises an MFPX 307 separator and ancillary equipment, including the EPC 400 control unit. An oil feed pump with starter, starter unit for separator, a strainer and an oil-heat- ing system are offered as ancillary equipment. The MFPX 307 has no gravity discs. It differs as well by having a built-in valve for water drainage and by enabling the continuous elec- tronic monitoring of changes in the water content in the cleaned oil.
