The paper describes the furnace for the disposal of hazardous and gaseous hydrocarbon waste gases, with the aim of reducing the negative impact of hydrocarbon processing plants. A description of the furnace with all the characteristics that ensure its operation. A detailed analysis of the main structural elements to identify the advantages and disadvantages of the equipment is given.

The paper presents the main methods of analyzing vibrations of pumping units under operating conditions: the method of determining trends is the study of trends in the technical condition; a comparison method based on calculating the amplitudes of the vibration spectrum from the measured characteristic coordinates obtained at the output of the device - a curve analyzer (envelope) or a linear vibration pattern, as well as the most practical way of implementing a power plant diagnostic algorithm using vibration parameters.

The paper discusses the possible types of mechanical equipment failures, the main periods of its operation, as well as the relationship of the failure rate and the nature of failures with the periods of operation of machines and units.

The paper presents the basic requirements for measuring systems used in the diagnosis of heavy power equipment. Thus, a link has been established between the quality of measurement and the quality of diagnostics of power equipment. The influence of measurement errors on the measurement results that occur in the diagnosis of power equipment is established. The authors came to the conclusion that in order to assess possible errors in the final result, it is necessary to carry out a series of measurements, the number of which was carried out using the methods of mathematical statistics. Excluded subject to the so-called "blunders (blunders)" caused by observers miscalculations.

The paper describes the main parameters characterizing the operation of the pumping equipment, and the method of recognizing the state of the equipment to determine the health of the system at a particular point in operation. The tasks of conducting a successful technical control, the status of the pumping equipment are considered, and schemes for the organization of control are proposed. The classification of the main reasons contributing to the destruction of equipment, as well as factors affecting the real technical system, is established. An explanation is given for each factor indicating the impact on the technical system or a specific node of this technical system.
