Process Data sheet / Mechanical Data Sheet

What additional information does the

MDS contain compared to the PDS?

The starting point for the mechanical

engineer is the Process Data Sheet (PDS) it

receives from the Process discipline.

From this, the Equipment Engineer produces

a Mechanical Data Sheet (MDS).

Heat Exchanger

The starting point for the Equipment engineer is the Data Sheet received from

Process discipline. Depending on the type of Heat Exchanger, this data sheet

shows the duty only, i.e., flow + inlet/outlet conditions or the size of the heat

exchanger.

Plate & Frame heat

exchangers, Air coolers:

specified only – not sized - by

Process.Shell & tube heat exchangers: sized by Process.

What is a package ?

Package = Set of equipment, accessories and services

� contracted or purchased to a single Vendor

� realizing a process function, with associated functional guarantees

What is, for Engineering, the purposeto order as a package ?

Purpose

� to have a better efficiency (than if it was done by the Engineer)

� to minimize site erection work

� to have ONE single functional guarantee
