Asphalt Station Inspection

Best call would be to get a hold of the manufactures for each part of your plant. They would have all the blue prints and schematics.

Where are you located? Are you calibrating to meet a governments specs?

Dear sir,

I'm located in egypt , and I want to make this calibration because my company want to recive the asphalt station from the contractor so that we want to make sure that all the parts are ok.

Is this equipment new or used?

If its new make sure the manufacturer's representative and their engineer are present during the installation. They should be the one showing you how and doing the calibrations for your equipment.

If it's used; the company you are buying it from and the manufacture should have the information you are looking for. Each company has there own way of doing their start-up calibrations. It's best to get the information from their own lips.

Sorry I can't be of more help.

John

Thank you for your help and I will try to follow your instructions but it might be akittle bit hard because the station is new and this are not said in the catalog and I don't now the engineers who made it but if yoou know a standard or code for this purpose it will be very useful for me and thanks alot
