26、ION The EN 746- 1 General Safety Requirements contains the common safety provisions and devices for all types of industrial thermoprocessing equipment. This part of the standard details in addition those extra safety requirements which need special attention against quenching equipment. This Europea
27、n Standard is a type C standard as defined in EN 292: 1991. The extent to which hazards are covered is indicated in the scope of this standard. 1 SCOPE This part of EN 746 gives the specific hazards and safety requirements that shall be provided by the manufacturer for Quenching Equipment, whether i
28、t is used as an independent unit or an integrated part of a plant. This part of EN 746 does not cover specific hazards and safety requirements for Salt Bath bath equipment used as a quenching means (see EN 746-5:2000). This part of EN 746 does not cover the handling, storage, transport, disposal, tr
29、ansfer or regeneration of the quenching media and processed material outside the limits of the equipment. This part of EN 746 standard applies not only to the normal operation of the equipment but also to the safety of personnel and property when foreseeable faults occur in them. Examples of quenchi
30、ng equipment are shown in Fig, 1 and Fig. 2. NOTE: There are many variations in the design of quenching equipment. Only two examples of the various types are given in this text. 2 NORMATIVE REFERENCES This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated references, provisions from other publicati
31、ons. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision. F

39、y and tacticle signals (IEC 61 3 10-1 1995) DEFINITIONS For the purposes of this standard the definitions given in EN 1070 apply. Additional definitions specifically needed for this standard are added below: 3.1 Enclosed Chamber A chamber used for quenching with a gas or gases at low atmospheric or
40、positive pressures. 3.2 Quenching Media The fluid used as the coolant to extract heat from the components being processed, such as oils, water/oil emulsions, salt solutions, molten lead, polymers, steam (water vapour) and fluidised beds. 3.3 Flood Quench A quenching process where a liquid quenchant
41、is pumped or flows by gravity over the surface of the part to be treated. 3.4 Open Quench Components enter the quench medium in contact with the atmosphere contained in a fully open tank. 3.5 Press Quench A quenching process carried out in specially designed machines in which the hot component is lo
42、cated between dies under pressure and held in position while the quenchant flows over it. 3.6 Small Tank A container of less than 1000 1 capacity and with a surface area (open or covered) of less than 1 m2. 3.7 Medium Tank A container of between 1000 1 and 3000 1 capacity and with a surface area (op
43、en or covered) of not more than 2 m2. 3.8 STD.BSI BS EN 7g6-8-ENGL 2000 m 1b2Libb9 0878910 T36 m - Page 7 EN 746-8:2000 Large Tank A container of more than 3000 1 capacity and a surface area (open or covered) of more than 2 m*. 3.9 Closed Tank A container in which the quenchant surface is covered or
44、 totally blanketed by a gas or gases that exclude air or where the empty space is evacuated. 4 LIST OF HAZARDS An assessment of the foreseeable risks arising from the use of the industrial thermoprocessing equipment has been carried out when this standard was elaborated. The clause has been condense
45、d into a table (see table 1). It summarises those areas which require consideration by the manufacturer. For ease of reference the table indicates the need for safety features or instructions in columns. The table shall only be used in conjunction with clauses 5 and 7 where further detail is given.
