This European Standard shal

17、l be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by June 2007, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by June 2007. This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commi

18、ssion and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s). For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations

19、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, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Sl

20、ovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom. EN 14797:2006 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the requirements for venting devices used to protect enclosures against the major effects of internal explosions arising from the rapid burning of suspended dust, vapour or gas contain

21、ed within. It includes the requirements for the design, inspection, testing, marking, documentation and packaging. This European Standard specifies explosion venting devices which are put on the market as autonomous protective systems. Explosion venting devices are safety devices comprised of a pres

22、sure sensitive membrane fixed to and forming part of the structure that it protects, designed to intervene in the event of an explosion at a predetermined low pressure, to immediately open a vent area sufficient to ensure that the maximum pressure attained by the explosion within the enclosure does

23、not exceed its designed resistance to pressure. The application and specification of explosion venting devices is outlined for dust explosion protection in EN 14491 and for gas explosion protection in prEN 14994. The use of venting devices according to this European Standard on pipelines and on appl

24、ications other than described in EN 14491 or prEN 14994 needs to be carefully evaluated and where appropriate their suitability needs to be confirmed by tests. Flameless explosion venting devices avoid the breakthrough of flames into the surroundings. They are used to allow explosion venting in situ

25、ations where the hazards of flames resulting from the venting action are not acceptable. Flameless explosion venting devices are treated in a separate standard. This European Standard does not cover details for the avoidance of ignition sources from detection devices or other parts of the venting de

42、subjected to pressure exceeding their static activation pressure (within a stated static activation pressure tolerance range). Any part not designed to rupture shall not rupture. Venting elements shall be designed so that they shall not fragment to produce dangerous missiles. These requirements may

43、be proved by explosion testing, but other methods e.g. calculation, may be used if their validity has been verified from representative explosion tests. Explosion venting devices shall employ re-usable elements or non re-usable elements (see Clause 5). Explosion venting devices may be provided with

44、back pressure supports (see Clause 6). The performance capability of an explosion venting device is defined by the following parameters: the static activation pressure pstatand its tolerance; the maximum KG/Kstvalues specified by the manufacturer; the maximum reduced pressure predspecified by the ma

45、nufacturer; the minimum venting efficiency Efof the device. Tests to determine or prove these parameters are given in Clause 7. Explosion venting devices shall be designed to maintain their specified performance taking into account environmental and process conditions. Build-up or addition of any su

46、bstance on external surfaces of the device (e.g. snow and ice) and the build-up of product on the internal surfaces of the device may affect the correct operation of the device, so particular attention shall be given to preventing such effects. Material used for the parts of explosion venting device

47、s shall be selected on the basis of their suitability with regard to the chemical and physical conditions to which they will be subjected in service. EN 14797:2006 (E) 9 It is common practice to use electrical detection devices to sense vent function, to operate an alarm or shut plant down. Such det

48、ection devices shall meet the requirements of EN 13463-1, EN 60079-0 and prEN 61241-0. Explosion venting devices can incorporate thermal insulation on the internal or external or both sides to prevent heat loss and/or condensation. Gaskets or seals forming part of an explosion venting device, shall

49、be as specified by the manufacturer and shall be compatible with the chemical, thermal, mechanical and environmental demands of the application. 4.2 Potential sources of ignition Due consideration shall be given to potential sources of ignition in the design and material specification of venting devices, e.g. static electricity, heating and detection devices. Requirements for potential sources of ignition in electrical and non-electrical equipment apply, as stated in EN 13463-1. 5 Types of explosion venting devices 5.1 Explosion venting device
