  • Abstract
    In December 1996, Messer-AGS began engineering and procurement of equipment for a 900 metric-ton-day air separation unit (ASU) to be located near Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Principle products of this facility are industrial gases via pipeline to the customer, liquid products for the area merchant market, and a cylinder filing operation for these products for local use. The primary user of these products is a large steel manufacturing facility adjacent to the ASU. The design requirements for the plant are outlined with emphasis on the motor. The selection and design of the 16000 hp induction motor are discussed
