Technical Notice

Engineering & Calculation Disclaimer

Important Information for Consulting Engineers, EPC Contractors & Facility Operators

Preliminary Sizing Tool Notice: The calculations performed on the Zylofy platform are intended for preliminary engineering evaluation, feasibility studies, conceptual plant sizing, and educational guidance only.

1. Professional Engineering Verification

High-pressure industrial fluid and boiler circuits are safety-critical systems operating under severe mechanical stresses governed by ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code and API 610. No physical pump procurement, motor sizing, or pipe installation should take place based solely on automated web outputs.

Final equipment selection must be reviewed, recalculated, and approved by a qualified Professional Engineer (PE) who takes responsibility for specific site conditions, local code requirements, and actual manufacturer pump curves (API 610 / ISO 9906).

2. Thermodynamic Approximations

Water density, saturation pressure, and viscosity equations utilized within this calculator are based on IAPWS-IF97 standards or high-accuracy polynomial approximations valid within 0°C to 250°C. While highly accurate, actual site conditions (fluid purity, chemical treatment additives, dissolved solids) may alter specific physical properties slightly.

3. Limitation of Liability

Zylofy, its developers, and contributors shall not be held liable for any damages, downtime, mechanical wear, piping failure, or financial losses arising from the use or interpretation of results obtained from this tool.
