All valve covers shall be designed to permit fullfunction of the valves and not to obscure the valves positionindica

32、tor.5.3 Any leak from the packing gland or flanges must bechanneled out of the cover to prevent soaking the insulation.5.4 Force-folding or bending of covers is not allowed.5.5 Covers shall be fabricated with a minimum 2 in. (50mm) of overlap at the end flap to overlap the adjacentinsulation.5.6 Cov

33、ers shall be fabricated with parting faces at thecover low point to facilitate drainage, if possible. Otherwise, adrainage grommet shall be installed at the cover low point.5.7 Any single cover or cover piece shall not exceed 45 lbs(20.4 kg). Covers with a finished weight of 45 lbs (20.4 kg) orless

(25mm).6.4 Fabric seams shall be inside seams, except that it ispossible that the final closing seam is an outside seam.6.5 Secure insulation within the jacketing with quilting pins,lacing hook

37、s, or insulation anchors to prevent insulation fromsettling within the cover. These supports shall penetrate thecold face jacketing and the insulation core, but not the hot facejacketing. Point protectors shall be used to prevent penetrationof the hot face jacketing.7. Tie-Down/Anchor Strap Construc

38、tion7.1 The terminal ends of splits in covers shall utilize flaps ordrawcord/flaps to seal the covers from wind and water.

39、ot be usedunless approved by the Purchaser.7.3 If Purchasers approval has been given for the use oflacing hooks and wires, the lacing hooks shall be tufted to thecold face jacketing. If lacing hooks penetrate the hot face, thehooks shall be secured by self-locking washers with a patch ofthe hot face

40、 jacketing material sewn over the washer.Asiliconerubber patch shall be placed between the washer and the cover.7.4 Ends of straps shall be turned under14 in. (6.3 mm) to12 in. (12.7 mm) and double stitched to prevent unraveling.7.5 Strap length and number of straps for covers shall besufficient to

41、ensure a snug and proper fit without gaps orsagging of the cover.7.6 Tie-down strap length shall have a minimum of 6 in.(150 mm) excess length for pulling and securing.7.7 Drawcords shall be used where terminal ends of coversneed to be drawn down around adjacent insulation, valvebonnets, nozzles, et

42、c., to seal the covers from wind and water7.7.1 Cover shall incorporate flaps at the terminal ends.Drawcord shall be located within this flap.7.7.2 Tie-down/anchor straps adjacent to cover terminalends shall be spaced a minimum of 2 in. (50 mm) back fromthe drawcord flaps.7.7.3 Cord length shall be

43、sufficient to allow a minimum of6 inches (150 mm) of cord to protrude from each end of the flapwhen it is drawn down.7.7.4 Cut ends of braided sleeving cord shall be turned backinside the sleeving a minimum of 1 in. (25 mm) and double-stitched to prevent fraying.7.7.5 A double stitch shall be locate

44、d at the middle of theflap to secure the cord and prevent it from pulling out.8. Identification Tags8.1 Stainless steel identification tags shall be permanentlyattached to the outside of the cover. The identification legendshall be mechanically embossed on the tag. Informationcontained on each tag s

45、hall be specified by the purchaser.8.2 The tag shall not be riveted directly to the cold facejacketing. Tags shall be riveted to a strap comparable to thetie-down/anchor strap. This strap shall be secured to the coldface jacketing to allow the strap to double as a handle or liftingloop.8.3 Covers ut

46、ilizing multi-piece construction shall be appro-priately tagged for assembly.9. Inspection9.1 1 The purchaser reserves the right to inspect the coversduring manufacture. The contractor shall replace or correct anymaterials or installations that do not meet the requirements ofthis practice.10. Reject

47、ion10.1 Failure to comply with the requirements in this speci-fication shall constitute cause for rejection. Rejection shall bereported to the manufacturer or seller promptly and in writing.The manufacturer and supplier have the right to verify rejectedproducts.11. Thickness Table11.1 The users shal
