They are of the type commonly used in piping systems and in the assembly of motor fuel dispensing equipment. Valves covered by this standard are for use with ammable uids which are handled at temperatures norma

22、lly within the range of minus 29C (minus 20F) to 52C (125F). 1.2 Valves covered by these requirements are intended for use with one or more of the following as applicable: a) Gasoline formulated in accordance with the Standard Specication for Automotive Spark- Ignition Fuel, ASTM D4814; b) Gasoline/

25、andard Specication for Ethanol Fuel Blends for Flexible-Fuel Automotive Spark-Ignition Engines, ASTM D5798. 1.3 These requirements cover valves of the manually operated, pressure operated, or temperature operated types, or combinations of such to the exclusion of types operated wholly or partially b

26、y electricity. When they form a part of an assembly which provides for additional functions or service, the requirements are outside the scope of these requirements. 1.4 These requirements do not cover the following: a) Valves for handling liquids under cryogenic conditions; b) Valves for general re

27、nery service, offshore and pipe line terminals, natural gas processing plants, gas distribution systems, petrochemical processing facilities, or the like; c) Constant-level oil valves and electrically operated valves; d) Relief valves and pressure regulators for liqueed petroleum gas (LP-Gas) servic

33、is standard shall comply with the requirements for that component. 2.1.2 A component is not required to comply with a specic requirement that: a) Involves a feature or characteristic not required in the application of the component in the product covered by this standard, or b) Is superseded by a re

34、quirement in this standard. 2.1.3 A component shall be used in accordance with its rating established for the intended conditions of use. 2.1.4 Specic components are incomplete in construction features or restricted in performance capabilities. Such components are intended for use only under limited

35、 conditions, such as certain temperatures not exceeding specied limits, and shall be used only under those specic conditions.

36、ated without parentheses are the requirement. Values in parentheses are explanatory or approximate information. 2.3 Undated references 2.3.1 Any undated reference to a code or standard appearing in the requirements of this standard shall be interpreted as referring to the latest edition of that code

37、 or standard. 3 Glossary 3.1 For the purpose of this standard, the following denitions apply. 3.2 BLENDING OPTION Dispensing devices may be provided with an option that blends two specic fuels into one fuel to be dispensed. This blending occurs at the dispenser level and can be in two forms: a) Fixe

38、d blending Blending at the dispenser level that blends two specic fuels into one fuel to be dispensed, and that fuel to be dispensed is xed. For example, xed blending includes blend options where gasoline and denatured fuel ethanol can be blended to achieve E85, which is the actual dispensed fuel. b

39、) Variable blending Blending at the dispenser level that blends two specic fuels into the fuel to be dispensed, but the fuel to be dispensed can be any of a number of previously set points. For example, variable blending includes blend options where gasoline and E85 can be blended to achieve E40, E6

40、0, and E85 as the actual dispensed fuel. 3.3 EMERGENCY SHUTOFF VALVES Valves intended for installation at the inlet of remote control type ammable liquid dispensing devices. They are normally held open by a mechanical holding means. They incorporate a fusible element and close automatically in the e

41、vent of exposure to re or break-off resulting from severe impact. They are designed for an operating pressure of not less than 50 psi (345 kPa). 3.4 FUSIBLE LINK VALVES Valves intended for use in lines conveying fuel gas or fuel oil which function to close when the temperature in the vicinity of the

42、 valve exceeds the fusing temperature of the fusible element. 3.5 GASOLINE/ETHANOL BLENDS Blended fuels composed of a gasoline component and an ethanol component. The numerical value corresponding to the ethanol component determines the blend rating (such as E85 for 85% ethanol, 15% gasoline). 3.6 S

43、EALS, DYNAMIC A seal that is subject to mechanical movement or other applied forces that result in movement or exing of the seal under normal use conditions. 3.7 SEALS, STATIC A seal that is not subject to mechanical movement or other applied forces other than compression forces that are applied dur

44、ing installation and maintained during normal use conditions.

45、s intended function and installation. 4.1.2 When a valve requires the use of special pipe anges, gaskets, bolts, or other special ttings or parts for making an installation, such parts shall be furnished by the manufacturer with each valve. 4.1.3 Two or more subassemblies intended to be assembled in

46、 the eld as a unit shall be capable of being joined together without requiring any of the subassemblies to be cut, drilled, welded or otherwise altered. 4.1.4 When two or more valves or actuating devices, or both, are to be used together as one unit, the entire assembly is, for the purpose of these

47、requirements, to be considered and tested as one valve. 4.1.5 A seat disc shall be attached to its poppet or holder or otherwise assembled so as to prevent it from becoming dislocated under service conditions as determined by the Endurance Test, Section 17. The means to secure the disc shall not rel
