20、 and Use4.1 This practice is for use by installers who are involved inthe rehabilitation of conduits through the use of a mobile,automated CIPP impregnation system to manufacture resinimpregnated tube installed through an existing conduit.

Equipment7.1 Resin pumpsPositive displacement pumps specificallydesigned for the formulated resin and c
26、atalyst utilized shall beused. The pumps shall be capable of delivering the requiredvolume of mixed resin to the tube during impregnation in asuitable time frame and shall also be capable of pulling suctionfor tank filling.7.2 Piping, fittings and tanksAll piping, fittings and tanksused to convey, c
27、irculate and store resin and catalyst shall bemade of a material suitable for constant contact with therespective material(s). Resin and catalyst tanks shall meet allfederal, state and local regulations for material transport.7.3 Flow meterPrecision metering device used to measureresin and catalyst
28、quantities with an accuracy tolerance of 61.0% or better by volume.7.4 Temperature control systemA heat exchange systemused to regulate resin and catalyst temperatures. Acceptablemethods may include utilizing temperature controlled air orwater, glycol lines, or heat tracing and insulation.7.5 Static
29、 mixerPlastic or stainless steel device consistingof mixing elements within a carrier tube that is used tothoroughly mix resin and catalyst prior to liner impregnation.The static mixer shall be appropriately designed and sized forthe viscosity and flow rate of the mixed resin utilized.7.6 Vacuum sys
30、temA device used to remove air from aliner and assist with liner impregnation. The vacuum pumpshall have a minimum capacity of 9.4 ft3/min (16 m3/hr) for upto 12 in. (300 mm) diameter CIPP and 23.5 ft3/min (40 m3/hr)for CIPP greater than 12 in. (300 mm). The vacuum systemshall have an integrated vac
31、uum regulator, vacuum gauge witha range of 0 to -14.5 psi (0 to -1.0 bar), distribution piping/hoses with the necessary connections and service points, and aball valve and suction cup attached to the terminating end ofeach vacuum hose. Vacuum hose shall be made of a suitablematerial, such as clear r
32、einforced PVC, with a minimum insidediameter of 0.375 in (9.5 mm). Suction cups shall be 2.5Bellows or similar style and capable of accommodating flat,concave or slanted surfaces.8. System Operation8.1 The mobile impregnation unit shall be supplied withadequate power and internal memory for data sto
33、rage, and beequipped with an emergency stop.8.2 The HMI shall be utilized to input project specificinformation. This includes customer and jobsite data, CIPPdiameter, thickness and length or other applicable data points,or a combination thereof.8.3 Resin and catalyst tank levels and temperatures sha
34、ll bechecked prior to using the mobile impregnation system. Ifadditional resin is needed, material inventory should be in-spected prior to use. Resin and catalyst should be storedindoors in sealed containers within a temperature range rec-ommended by the resin manufacturer. Prior to use, the resinsh
35、ould be tested for reactivity in accordance with manufactur-ers recommendations. In lieu of reactivity testing, a COA maybe obtained from the resin manufacturer for each batch of resinand catalyst utilized. Resin and catalyst tanks may be filled todesirable levels using external transfer pumps and/o
36、r on-boardresin and catalyst pumps with gravity assist.F2994 1328.4 The mobile impregnation system shall be in resincirculation mode prior to start up. Upon system start up, allfunctions and components shall be checked and verified to beoperational and within the manufacturers recommended toler-ance
37、s. Resin and catalyst temperature levels shall also bechecked prior to use. The mobile impregnation system shall notbe operated if resin and catalyst temperatures fall outside therange recommended by the manufacturer. Resin that is too coldwill have a viscosity that is too high, causing excessive pu
38、mppressures; resin that is too warm will reduce the pot life of themixed resin. Work room climate control systems such as roofmounted HVAC, stand heating or refrigeration units may beutilized in conjunction with temperature control systems asdescribed in 7.4 to assist with the material heating or co
39、olingprocess.8.5 All liner tube should be stored indoors or protected frommoisture and ultraviolet light when not in use. Storage tem-perature for all liner tube shall be within acceptable limits asestablished by the manufacturer. The tube(s) proposed to beused for the next installation(s) may be tr
40、ansported in bulk tothe job-site or measured, cut and stored inside the mobileimpregnation unit prior to mobilization.8.6 Once the mobile impregnation unit is ready for use andthe liner tube is pre-measured and cut, the liner tube may bepositioned on the roller bed and table. The terminating end oft
41、he liner shall be temporarily sealed before applying vacuum.Using a utility knife, a vacuum port, typically a straight0.25-0.50 in. (6-12 mm) slit, shall be cut in a flat, even area ofthe liner coating (away from any seams) and tagged. Depend-ing on the length and diameter of liner being impregnated
42、,additional vacuum ports may be required. The vacuum pumpshall be powered up using the HMI display and vacuum cup(s)applied to the liner tube over the vacuum port(s). The vacuumlevel shall be adjusted as needed to optimize the impregnationprocess. Ideal vacuum levels may range from -4.4 to -7.3 psi(
43、-0.3 to -0.5 bar), depending on diameter and liner typeutilized. If good vacuum is established, the liner will drawdown as air is evacuated. If vacuum cannot be established, theliner should be inspected for defects. Once a good vacuumlevel is observed, the liner tube is ready for resin saturation.8.
44、7 The target mixing ratio on the HMI shall be achievedand maintained prior to transitioning into dispense mode. Theend of the mixing tube or lance shall then be positioned over ametal or heat resistant container of suitable size for wastematerials. Upon switching to dispense mode, a small volume ofm
45、ixed resin shall be discharged into the container. Once theresin color and flow is normal and consistent as recommendedby the manufacturer, the discharge flow shall be shut off byreturning to circulation mode.8.8 The mixing tube or lance shall be inserted into the openend of the liner tube. Upon swi
46、tching back to dispense mode,mixed resin shall be pumped into the tube. A starter slug maybe pumped in at the start to seal the end of the liner tube andassist with vacuum impregnation. Once a target resin slugquantity is achieved, the operator shall return to circulationmode and remove mixing tube
47、or lance from the liner.8.9 The end of the liner shall be positioned through thecalibration rollers. The proper gap setting shall be employed,calculated and set based on liner tube thickness and manufac-turers recommendations. The default gap setting on the mobileimpregnation unit shall be set autom
48、atically from input data butmay be manually adjusted as needed to accommodate productspecific needs. The rollers shall then be started and maintainedat an optimal speed which is achieved when the resin saturationline is maintained at a constant position on the roller bed. If theroller is running too
49、 fast, the resin saturation line will migratetowards the pinch roller; if its operating too slowly, the resinsaturation line will move away from the roller.8.10 When required, vacuum ports may be moved furtheralong the length of the unsaturated liner as the wet out processprogresses. Vacuum ports must be placed on unsaturated linerand must be sealed (patched) prior to reaching the resinsaturation line. Vacuum patches shall be applied in accordancewith manufacturers recommendations.8.11 If additional resin slugs are required, an injection slotshall be cut in
