Abstract: Modules for assembly eg. as an integrated switchboard have stub conductors (5), emerging through insulating bushings (1) sealed into the side-plates (2), that require to be connected electrically to the corresponding stubs (5'), with which they are aligned, projecting through bushings (1') in the side (2') of the adjacent module. The stubs are bolted (6) internally to the contained equipment; externally they present circular recesses (7') of unequal depth but equal diameter, on mutually aligned horizontal axes. In the deeper recess (7') a cylindrical plug (8) mounted on an adjusting screw can by rotation enter the shallower recess in the opposing stub. Peripheral sliding contacts (10) on the plug ensure good connection. This joint is insulated by a doubly flanged flexible sleeve (12). Its tubular centre section forms a simple bellows whose axial compression gives access to the joint. The sleeve flanges present flat outer faces that lie against the outer faces (11,11') of the bushings and are held in close contact with them by detachable clamping pieces (13,13') bolted (14,14') to the side-plates. For electric stress distribution, the sleeve's internal and external surfaces, except the bushing contact surfaces, have a semi-conducting outer layer. Variants feature alternative plug and stub configurations.

Abstract: Process for the catalytic dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene in which a feedstock containing ethylbenzene and steam is supplied into the inlet of a tubular reactor containing a dehydrogenation catalyst. Within the reactor, the feedstock flows through at least a portion of the reactor along a spiral flow path extending longitudinally of the reactor. The resulting styrene product is then recovered from a downstream or outlet section of the reactor. The spiral flow path through which the feedstock is passed is located at least adjacent the inlet side of the reactor and at least a portion of the spiral flow path contains a particulate dehydrogenation catalyst. The spiral flow path may extend throughout a major portion of the elongated tubular reactor and may contain a particulate dehydrogenation catalyst in a substantial portion there. The feedstock containing ethylbenzene and steam is supplied into a plurality of tubular reactors located within the interior of a dehydrogenation reactor vessel and is arranged in a parallel relationship in which the tubular reactors are spaced laterally from one another and from the interior wall of the reaction vessel. The tubular reactors each have a mixing stage comprising a longitudinally-extending helical baffle providing a spiral flow path. The interior of the reaction vessel is heated by a heating system in order to provide an external source of heat which varies along the lengths of the tubular reactors.
