	A screw compressor is a positive displacement compressor and is covered by API 619 - Rotary Type Positive Displacement Compressors etc. API 672's title is - Packaged Integrally Geared Centrifugal Compressors..... it does not cover positive displacement machines. "what standard covers it" - API 619. __________________ I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious. Albert E
