3. Motivation/Need for Revisions Use of Magnetic Bearings is Expected to Increase in API Machines
Compressor/Expanders already offered with AMB’s as standard bearing for some applications
Subsea machines are expected to be AMB machines
Interest for a variety of other applications
617-7th Edition has “Informational” Appendix In Compressor/Expander Chapter – Really Need Something Normative as Guide 3
4. Approach One of the Tasks of the 684/Standard Paragraphs Group was to Develop a Revision
Decided to Form a Separate AMB Sub-Group to Develop New Content
Ultimately Focusing on 617/10439 Rather Than Standard Paragraphs
It Became Clear That a Good Approach was a New AMB Annex for Chapter 1. 4
