The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through IS0 technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been

IS0 collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standa

24、 Switzerland IS0 11621:1997(E) Introduction It is occasionally desirable to change gas cylinders from one gas service to another. Certain of these service changes can be made quite easily, while others require a careful inspection of the interior and exterior of the cylinder to detect the presence o

25、f corrosion products or contaminants, which must be removed for safety reasons or to avoid undesirable contamination of the contained gas. This International Standard has been prepared to assist those engaged in the filling of gas cylinders for changing cylinders from one gas service to another. EN

26、ISO 11621:2005blankGas cylinders - Procedures for change of gas service 1 Scope This International Standard applies to seamless steel, aluminium alloy and welded steel refillable cylinders of all sizes, including large cylinders (water capacity greater than 150 I). It provides general requirements a

27、nd procedures to be considered whenever a cylinder is being transferred from one gas service to another for permanent and liquefied gases. It does not apply to cylinders for dissolved acetylene, radioactive gases or gases listed in group G of table I. 2 Normative references The following standards c

32、General requirements Cylinders are manufactured in accordance with international and/or national standards and are intended for use with a variety of gases under specified filling conditions. Although some cylinders are restricted to specific gas services, the majority of cylinders can be transferre

33、d from one gas service to another, provided applicable regulations are observed and appropriate procedures are followed and material compatibilities are considered (see IS0 11114-l). Cylinders which have been in service may have been exposed to conditions that render them unsafe during, or when tran

34、sferred to, a different gas service. These conditions could result in contamination, corrosion or residual gases that may react. Therefore, it is essential that all procedures detailed in clause 5 and displayed in tables 1, 2 and 3 be carefully followed. Particular attention shall be directed to ass

35、uring that purging or cleaning procedures, where specified, remove all residual gas, contaminants or corrosion products and that cleaning agents are removed and cylinders dried and sealed to prevent entry of dirt or moisture after cleaning. Persons using this International Standard shall be knowledg

36、eable in the handling of compressed gases and be familiar with the chemical and physical properties of the commodities which they charge into cylinders and of the contaminants which are likely to be found therein. 4.1 Grouping of gases For the purposes of this International Standard, the gases for w

37、hich cylinder transfers are most frequently desired have been separated into several groups. This separation has taken into consideration the chemical and physical reactivity of the gases and of the contaminants which are most frequently encountered. The requirements in this International Standard m

38、ay not be applicable to gases or mixtures which are not included in the gas groups given in table 3. Recommendations for the cleaning of cylinders which have contained such gases shall be obtained from the manufacturer of the cylinder and/or gas. The values quoted in table 1 for the FTSC code are ta

39、ken from IS0 5145 or IS0 10156. 4.2 Gases which may affect cylinder condition Cylinders which have been in certain gas services may be subjected to conditions which could affect the future serviceability of the cylinder or render it unsuitable for use in any other gas service. Cylinders in such serv

40、ices are subject to rigid requalification procedures or may be prohibited from use in other gas services. Examples are: steel cylinders in carbon monoxide/carbon monoxide mixture service which may be subject to stress corrosion cracking; steel cylinders which have been in hydrogen service but which

41、were not designed and manufactured for this gas (see IS0 11114-1). 5 Actions for change of service 5.1 General Because of the potential safety problems (e.g. corrosion, contamin ation, compatibility), specific actions are required when transferring a cylinder from one gas service to another. The ste

42、ps (set of actions), denoted by a number, are 2 EN ISO 11621:2005IS0 11621 :1997(E) listed in table 3. Table 2 shows in tabular form all the steps to be taken for each transfer. It is important that each step be taken. The gas groups are shown by name and letter in table 1. The actions given in tabl

43、e 3 are described in detail in 53.1 to 53.10 inclusive. 5.2 Use of tables 1,2 and 3 EXAMPLE d A nitrogen cylinder is to be transferred to hydrogen service. Determine the gas groups from table 1 (nitrogen = A; hydrogen = E). Using table 2, find A in the left-hand column and proceed across the table t

44、o column E where you will find the numbers 1, 4, 6. Go to table 3, which shows what actions are required by steps 1, 4 and 6 (for details, see 53.1, 5.3.4 and 5.3.6). EXAMPLE 2 An oxygen cylinder is to be transferred to 50 % oxygen and 50 % nitrous oxide. Determine the gas groups from table 1 (oxyge

45、n and nitrous oxide = C). Using table 2, find C in the left-hand column and proceed ,across the table to column C where you will find the number 1. Go to table 3, which shows what actions are required by step 1 (for details, see 5.3.1). Table ll - Gas groups for change of service Group I Description
