4、gives requirements for the construction of process vessels or systems in which a potentially explosive atmosphere may occur, and which are subject to explosion protection techniques. It does not give requirements for the design of explosion protection for either electrical or non-electrical (mechani

5、cal) equipment intended for use in explosive atmospheres and should not be used for such designs.Requirements for the explosion protection of electrical equipment intended for use in explosive atmospheres are given in the BS EN 60079 series of standards. Techniques for the explosion protection of me

6、chanical equipment intended for use in explosive atmospheres are given in the BS EN 13463 series of standards.Explosion protection of process vessels or systems can be achieved by the application of:1. Venting the requirements of which are given in:BS EN 14797, Explosion venting devices BS EN 14491,

7、 Dust explosion venting protective systems BS EN 14994, Gas explosion venting protective systems2. Suppression the requirements of which are given in:BS EN 14373, Explosion suppression systems3. Containment the requirements of which are given in this standard.The requirements of this standard should

8、 be applied to the construction of a process vessel or system when any of the above explosion protection techniques are applied. The essential requirement is that the vessel or system should suffer no unintended rupture. When either venting or suppression is applied explosion pressures stay relative

9、ly low, but when the chosen protection technique is Containment, it is important to understand what containment means. Explosion containment is a technique whereby the explosion is totally sealed inside the process plant or system. The process plant or system is therefore designed so that it does no

10、t rupture under the very highest explosion pressures generated; that is, there is no escape of either flame or pressure into the surroundings.In the application of all explosion protection methods it may be necessary to take into account isolation techniques that prevent explosions from propagating

11、between items of process plant. Requirements for explosion isolation techniques are given in harmonized standards currently being prepared by CEN TC 305 WG 3. It may be necessary also to take into account pressure piling effects that may occur due to flame propagation either through connecting pipel

12、ines between process vessels or through structures inside a single vessel.Other factors specific to an installation may also need to be considered.

23、eld by DIN. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by November 2006, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by November 2006. This document has been prepared und

24、er a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive 94/9/EC of 23 March 1994. For relationship with EU Directive 94/9/EC, see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document. According to t

25、he CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxem

EN 14460:2006 (E) 4 Introduction The principles of integrated explosion safety includes the following measures the manufacturer has to take: a) prevention of formation of

27、explosive atmospheres; b) prevention of the ignition of the explosive atmospheres; and c) if an explosion nevertheless occurs, to halt it immediately and/or to limit the range of explosion flames and explosion pressures to a sufficient level of safety. It is essential that methods according to c) be

28、 used if the ignition hazard assessment of the equipment shows that the prevention of ignition sources, e.g. by using of types of ignition protection as defined in EN 13463 series, doesnt fulfil the requirements of the intended category which is necessary for the intended use of the equipment. This

29、standard specifies requirements for equipment that shall be explosion resistant. Explosion resistance is the term applied to the construction of an enclosure so that it can withstand an expected explosion pressure without rupture. Giving equipment this property it limits the range of explosion flame

30、s and explosion pressures to a sufficient level of safety. The equipment property “explosion resistance“ can be used for equipment, protective systems and components. EN 14460:2006 (E) 5 1 Scope This standard specifies requirements for explosion-pressure-resistant and explosion pressure shock-resist

31、ant equipment. This standard is applicable to process vessels and systems. It is not applicable to individual items of equipment such as motors and gearboxes that may be designed to withstand an internal explosion, which is the subject of EN 13463-3. This standard is valid for atmospheres having pre

32、ssures ranging from 800 hPa to 1100 hPa and temperatures ranging from - 20 C to + 60 C. This standard may also be helpful for the design, construction, testing and marking of equipment intended for use in atmospheres outside the validity range stated above, as far as this subject is not covered by s

33、pecific standards. This standard applies to equipment and combinations of equipment where deflagrations may occur and is not applicable to equipment and combination of equipment where detonation may occur. This standard should not be used for offshore applications. It is essential that this standard

34、 be used for equipment made of metallic materials only. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

43、on resistant equipment shall be so constructed that it can withstand an internal explosion without rupturing. In general, a distinction is made between the following designs: design for the maximum explosion pressure; design for the reduced explosion pressure in conjunction with explosion pressure r

45、gn pressure The design pressure shall not be less than the maximum gauge pressure occurring in the equipment, when subjected to explosion or reduced explosion conditions. The design pressure shall be used as the calculation pressure as detailed in EN 13445-3. NOTE 1 If the inside of the equipment is

46、 divided into sections (e.g. tanks connected by a pipeline or containing baffles or surge plates), during an explosion in one of the sections the pressure in the other sections of the equipment will be increased. As a result, an explosion in these sections will occur at an elevated initial pressure.

47、 Further, pressure peaks occur which are higher than the value expected under atmospheric conditions. In the case of such arrangements, appropriate measures should be taken, either explosion de-coupling techniques or explosion resistant design derived from representative explosion trials. NOTE 2 Pre

48、ssures quoted are gauge pressures unless otherwise stated. For guidance on the derivation of design pressure see Annex A. EN 14460:2006 (E) 8 4.3 Design temperature For wall temperatures governed by the weather or by the vessel charge of less than 10 C EN 13445-2 shall be consulted for material requ

49、irements. In case of an explosion there is only a marginal heat up of the vessel walls. Therefore, the anticipated operating temperature at the initial pressure shall be used as the design temperature. 4.4 Additional loads Loads which are due to an activation of a venting device, due to product load and/or to hydrostatic load shall be considered. In addition any other load that may occur at the same time as an explosion e.g. windload, snowload, shall be considered, corresponding to EN 13445-3. If brittle material is used for press
