18、tion for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established

19、has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.The

20、 procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the ed

24、uctionProcessed natural gas received from suppliers normally has little or no odour. For safety reasons, natural gas is therefore odorized to permit the detection by smell of the gas at very low concentrations in air.NOTE It is a common requirement that natural gas in air be readily detectable by sm

25、ell at a concentration of 20 % of the lower flammability limit (LFL). The LFL of natural gas is normally taken as the volume fraction in air of 4 % to 5 %.

30、ly odourless) to allow the recognition of gas leaks by smell at very low concentration (before a build up to a dangerous gas in air concentration can occur)Note 1 to entry: Adapted from ISO 14532.Note 2 to entry: Natural gas is normally odourless. The addition of an odorant to the gas fed into the d

31、istribution system for safety reasons permits the detection of the gas by smell at very low concentrations.3.2odorantintensely smelling organic chemical or combination of chemicals added to natural gas at low concentration and capable of imparting a characteristic and distinctive (usually disagreeab

36、 following general recommendations:a) The gas odorant should have a strong odour at very low concentration.b) The odour character of the odorant needs to be unpleasant, distinctive and not confusable with other frequently occurring odours so that it is unmistakably associated with a gas leak.c) The

37、odour character should be the same at different dilutions of natural gas with air.d) The odorant should be sufficiently stable during storage and when mixed with natural gas.e) The volatility of the odorant should be high enough so that the odorant does not appreciably condense under the conditions

38、(temperature and pressure) existing in the pipeline system.f) Evaporation of the gas odorant should not appreciably leave residues.g) The odorant should be useable at low temperatures, when required.h) The combustion of the odorant should not leave significant solid deposits.i) The addition of the o

39、dorant to natural gas should not make the resulting gas harmful.2 ISO 2013 All rights reservedBS EN ISO 13734:2013ISO 13734:2013(E)These general recommendations should be assessed against the specific conditions of use of the odorant (conditions of the natural gas transportation grid, odorization in

40、stallation, type of odorant, composition of the gas).Experience in many countries has shown that these basic requirements are best met by organic sulfur compounds - sulfides (thioethers) and mercaptans (thiols) - with boiling points below 130 C. Since primary mercaptans are easily oxidized to disulf

41、ides which have a much lower odour intensity, mercaptan-based odorants need to predominantly contain secondary and tertiary mercaptans.While it has been established that the above sulfur compounds fulfil the basic requirements listed above under a) to i), other, non-sulfurous odorants have been deve

42、loped and are available.4.2 Composition of odorantsThe mass fraction of the declared chemical product in the undiluted odorant shall be at least 95 %. The composition of the odorant, and where applicable the dilution range, shall be declared by the producer or distributor. It shall be stable over th

43、e maximum shelf time as declared by the manufacturer.In sulfur containing odorants, the mass fraction of sulfides (thioethers) or secondary or tertiary mercaptans (thiols) shall be at least 80 %. Primary mercaptans are more easily oxidized than secondary or tertiary mercaptans.For non-sulfurous odor

44、ants based on acrylates, care shall be taken e.g. by use of an appropriate additive to avoid polymerisation.4.3 Cloud pointThe cloud point of the undried odorant, to be determined in accordance with 6.4, shall be below -30 C.4.4 Phase properties4.4.1 Boiling pointThe boiling point of the components

45、of the odorants and diluent, measured in accordance with 6.5, shall not be higher than 130 C.4.4.2 Vapour pressure curveThe vapour pressure curve of the odorant and eventually the diluent shall be given. It shall be determined in accordance with 6.5.4.5 Evaporation residueThe mass fraction of the ev

46、aporation residue, to be determined in accordance with 6.6, shall be less than 0,2 %.4.6 Insoluble matterOdorants shall not contain any visible insoluble matter, to be determined in accordance with 6.7.4.7 Solubility in waterWhen the odorant is added to water in the way specified in 6.8, less than 2

47、 % by volume of the odorant shall be soluble.
