12、series specifying requirements for thermally insulated underground piping systems for conveying or circulating steam, hot or chilled water, heated oil and other fluids. The series does not include systems that employ a high vacuum in the annulus as the sole means of insulation. This Part of BS 4508
13、deals with pipe-in-pipe systems having a welded steel outer casing and air gap between the casing and the insulated service pipe. As such the system is suitable for fluids of all temperatures above5 C, including high temperature hot water and steam, and should withstand the effects of ground, surfac
14、e and flood water, which is often aggressive and usually under some pressure due to hydraulic flow or static head. When first published in 1969, this Part of BS4508 included an appendix which described tests for identifying whether a site could be considered as Class A (wet) or Class B (dry). Howeve
15、r, it is no longer considered practical to classify any site as other than wet and these tests were deleted from the standard by amendment. Experience gained since 1969 has enabled the requirements to be specified in greater detail but the standard of workmanship, particularly for field installation
16、 work, is of paramount importance. The revised layout of this Part of BS4508 should assist in separating the responsibilities of the manufacturer of the pipework and equipment from those of the installation contractor. This Part supersedes BS4508-1:1969, which is withdrawn. Other published Parts of
17、BS4508 are as follows: Part 3: General requirements for cased systems without air gap; Part 4: Specific testing and inspection requirements for cased systems without air gap. This Part and BS4508-3 and BS4508-4 should be used in conjunction with CP3009, which gives guidance on the method of selectin
18、g the most suitable system for particular applications. The installation of pipelines is covered in CP2010 and other relevant information may be found in CP413 and BS5970. The system described in this Part of BS4508 utilizes established techniques that are the culmination of several decades of devel
19、opment through field trials and extensive operational experience by major authorities and other users. However, if a fault condition arises, it should be notified to the Installer/Guarantor and rectified at the earliest opportunity in order to prevent deterioration of the system, including the exter
20、nal protective coating. Partial failure due to damp insulation can result in continuous and expensive fuel wastage and other severe penalties and it should be noted that an air gap provides built-in facilities for routine testing. If required, the air gap may be sealed and a positive or negative dry
21、 air pressure, or nitrogen pressure, applied to indicate ingress of ground water. Particular attention is drawn to the need for cathodic protection of piping systems, unless otherwise indicated (see7.4). It is expected that the British Standard Registered Firms Scheme will be extended to include fir
22、ms engaged in underground pipeline schemes.BS4508-1:1986 BSI 10-1999 iii A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer i
23、mmunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pagesi to iv, pages1to10, an inside back cover and a back cover. This standard has been updated (see copyright date) and may have had amendments incorporated. This will be indicated in the
