pH is a measure of the hydrogen ion concentration in an ionic liquid
(usually, but not necessarily,  a water-based fluid). It is log to the base
10 of the reciprocal of the hydrogen ion concentration., or minus log base
10 of the hydrogen ion concentration (mathematically the same thing), the
hydrogen ion concentration being measured in moles.

 

If the liquid is neutral, it should be 7.0, since the solubility product of
hydrogen ion and hydroxide ion in pure water at STP is 10 to the power -14
and these two must be exactly in balance for the solution to be neutral. 

 

Is that now as clear as a lignosulphonate drilling fluid?

 

Cheers,

Owen.

It's commonly known as mud in the drilling business.

I work for Eaton and I am on training with some of the electrical and vehicle 
group next week 
and will see if anyone can get me a direct contact

 Hi All,
 
 A friend in South Africa has a 2005 Aero 8. The electronically controlled 
 heater control valve has failed and is currently bypassed. He has asked the 
 agent in South Africa with no success and I have asked our Morgan dealer in 
 the UK if they can check with MMC. Currently the status with MMC is that the 
 valve is on back order as the component is no longer manufactured – so still 
 waiting an alternative.
 
  
 The name on the white label on the part says 'Eaton' with a number 354-69.
 
  
 I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on the component and a 
 possible source to obtain a replacement. If in the UK I can get it and take 
 it out to South Africa next time I go. (I have more photos that I could send 
 off group)
  
 Kind regards

Re: [mogtalk2] Heater Control Valve 2005 Aero 8

2012-05-27 Thread Owen Jenkins
Rainwater is always acid, as it has carbon dioxide dissolved in it. It can also 
have oxides of sulphur and nitrogen from the burning of fossil fuels, internal 
combustion engines, volcanoes, the action of lightning etc. The rainwater I 
collect for my garden has a pH of 6.5, typically. Lower when Icelandic 
volcanoes erupt.

It is quite instructive to read the pH at source on bottles of mineral water. 
Deeside water, bottled about ten miles from here, has a pH at source of 6.1. 
If you measure what's in the bottle, it varies. This latter is true of all 
bottled water. Some bottled water can have a pH at source as high as 8.0.

Pure water, if you do a pukka job of demineralising it, should have a pH of 7.0 
at STP. Leave it exposed to the air and it will drop, typically, to around 6.7 
or so as it dissolves acid gases from the atmosphere. Water from your 
dehumidifier will also be slightly acid. If you boil it, you get the gases out 
and the pH should be much closer to 7.0, when cool. Now store it in full, 
stoppered bottles and, if you're lucky, it will stay neutral. In theory. If you 
don't get algae growing in it.

One of the other problems you may get, where you have hoses clamped onto 
corrodible metal, is crevice corrosion. It could well be the main issue here. 
If you are relying upon maintaining a passive film for corrosion inhibition, 
you'll be out of luck. Most passive films require oxygen. That gets eaten up in 
the initial corrosion, now there's no oxygen to regenerate the passive film, so 
you get an auto-catalytic corrosion reaction, with the area between hose and 
valve containing an increasingly acid fluid, with the metal under the hose 
acting as the anode in a corrosion cell and dissolving, while the metal exposed 
to the free fluid acts as the cathode. Have a look and you'll see that the 
valve nozzle appears to have corroded from the outside (in contact with hose) 
inwards. 

Following recommended fluid mixtures and regular maintenance should minimise 
the risk of problems like this occurring. Which reminds me... I used to be good 
at changing hoses fairly frequently.  Can't say I've been as attentive in this 
area in recent years as once I was.

Meanwhile, if he really can't source a replacement and this one still works, 
but for the failure of the stub pipe nozzle, I'd be inclined to see if I could 
fit a new stub pipe to replace the badly corroded one. Then flush the system 
properly and fill with the Morgan-recommended, low-electrical conductivity, 
inhibited cooling mixture. 

Regards,
Owen.

  Good point Owen. Many people think, it won't freeze, so I don't need 
antifreeze and forget the stuff is choc full of corrosion inhibitors. 

  Pure water I think, is naturally slightly acid, but most tap water has lord 
knows what dissolved in it and can be either acid or alkali. 

  The trike runs antifreeze for the inhibitors - along with distilled water! 
(By product of de-humidifier).

  What's he been running in the cooling system? It should never have corroded 
like that if he'd had sufficient corrosion inhibitor it here. Being in S.A., I 
suspect he runs a very high water content and hasn't thought much about what 
else ought to be in there. With mixed metal systems, you can't do that. It may 
be closing the stable door after the horse has bolted, but if he ever finds a 
replacement, he needs to make sure he's following some sensible guidance on 
anti-corrosion measures, otherwise it will happen again.

  Regards,
  Owen.
