Parker Boiler’s Parkerview Alarm (PV-A) is a simple-to-operate, cellular-based alarming system for use on boilers or other devices. The PV-A alerts the owner or operator of the boiler or other device when an alarm condition is detected, cleared or when there is a power loss, or when there is a change in ambient temperature conditions. When an alarm condition is detected, the PV-A will text up to three phone numbers to indicate there is a problem. If the alarm is cleared, an additional text is sent to an off-site owner or operator.

  • Defects in Hard Chromium Deposits Part I: Causes and Cures

    The causes of and remedies for defects in hard chromium deposits are explored in the first of this two-part P&SF article from 1984.  Photomicrographs and SEM (scanning electron microscope) photo­graphs will illustrate that most defects in various hard chromium deposits arise from defects in the basis metal. These defects may be in the original metal surface or may be caused by preplate finishing. Homogeneous hard chromium deposits can be produced only by eliminating these defects. Practical suggestions and procedures will be given.

  • Black Chromium Finishing: Beauty and the Beast

    Over the past 10 years, there has been commercial development of black chromium deposits from a trivalent chromium electrolyte.  This paper will review the deposit characteristics and operational consideration of these similar, but different chromium plating deposits.

  • Methods and Formulas to Determine Internal Deposit Stress in Applied Metallic Coatings

    Internal stress exists in electroplated and chemically applied metallic coatings. This paper reviews the test procedures for measuring deposit stress and the formulas used to calculate stress values. Many formulas used require modification to obtain actual internal stress values. Errors in this regard are examined and common mistakes are explained.
