Selection of cranes for the air separation plant building
Thread Content
Dear sea friends: I would like to ask whether, when selecting cranes for the air separation plant building, the decision should be based on the maximum maintenance weight or the maximum lifting capacity. The key question is whether there are any standards to guide such a choice. Thank you!
There seems to be no fixed standard for this; it depends on the usage requirements – namely, how much weight needs to be lifted
In general, it is sufficient to choose based on the maximum maintenance weight.
Are there any clear documents such as standards or regulations that establish this?

Relevant standards should stipulate this; experts who have worked on such designs know this, but personally I don’t think it’s necessary. The purpose of the vehicle accessories is for maintenance work, so the maximum weight suitable for such work should be taken into account. If your goal is to install the machinery or achieve some other purpose, then the maximum lifting weight required for that purpose should be used as a reference.
