Several years ago at a Paper Mill in south India where I was commissioning a low temperature brine chilling plant supplied by our company, the chief engineer complained that the plant was taking too long to achieve the desired low temperature. When I pointed out to him that he had never specified the pull-down per iod required, he realised his mistake and did not repeat it on his next project, which was also awarded to our company.
