本月我們了解到,速得12噸的測力環(huán)在Larkin Engineering Services公司的建設項目中用于了觀測站上起吊點的負荷測試。
In this month’s equipment case study, we find out how a 12t-capacity loadcell developed by Straightpoint was used by Larkin Engineering Services to load test the lifting points of a weather station.
此氣象站服務于歐洲第一個商業(yè)性漂浮式海上風向風速觀測項目,并且由Dongle Energy和Flidar兩家公司進行監(jiān)理。
The weather station is being used in Europe's first commercial floating offshore wind measurement project, overseen by Dong Energy and Flidar.
進行負荷測試的目的在于保證重達6.5噸的觀測站可以安全起吊并順利地被運至位于愛爾蘭海的準確位置上,在到達指定海面后可以平穩(wěn)安裝。
The load test was carried out to ensure the station, which weighs 6.5t, could be safely lifted and transported to its final location in the Irish Sea, and that it would be balanced when at sea.
此速得測力環(huán)可記錄所有的測試重量信息,包括觀測站的各組成部分和完整觀測站的重量。
The loadcell recorded all test weights, including those of individual components and the complete station.
負責承接此項目的Larkin公司的高級司索和檢驗工程師約翰道奇森先生說道,此觀測站主要是由一個裝在海上浮標上的小型風立方裝置構成的,帶有被動式機械穩(wěn)定系統(tǒng)以保證觀測站穩(wěn)定工作。在項目進行過程中,我們用速得測力環(huán)來測定觀測站上各個起吊點在負荷測試中的負載數據信息。觀測站組裝完畢后,測力環(huán)的峰值延時顯示功能還可以幫助更好的記錄總負荷,這樣有利于準確把握施加試驗負荷的大小水平。
John Dodgson, senior rigging and inspection engineer at Larkin, said: "The Flidar equipment consists of a marine buoy equipped with a state-ofthe- art buoy-adapted Leosphere Windcube c2 Lidar, held in a passive mechanical stablisation system. The Straightpoint loadcell was used to take load test measurements on the lifting points on Flidar.
"I used Straightpoint's Handheld Plus to take measurements of the marine buoy and the windcube. Once Flidar was assembled, the loadcell's peak load function was used to record the total load, so that calculation could be set for the proof loads to be applied.
“最后,利用峰值延時顯示功能,我們記錄下了每一個起吊點上應加載的試驗負荷值。測力環(huán)監(jiān)測到的數據信息顯示在手持顯示器上,我們將其拍照以后,作為了試驗負荷測試證明文件的一部分內容!
"Finally the peak load function recorded the total proof load applied to the single lifting point. The digital read-out is always photographed and forms part of the certification documentation of the proof loading tests."
