6、-8288; E-mail: standardsisa.org.The ISA Standards and Practices Department is aware of the growing need for attention to the metricsystem of units in general, and the International System of Units (SI) in particular, in the preparation ofinstrumentation standards. The Department is further aware of

7、the benefits to USA users of ISAstandards of incorporating suitable references to the SI (and the metric system) in their business andprofessional dealings with other countries. Toward this end, this Department will endeavor to introduceSI-acceptable metric units in all new and revised standards, re

8、commended practices, and technicalreports to the greatest extent possible.

12、ansducer is classified as safety-related is important in determining which of the criteriain this document shall be applicable. In general, transducers are classified as safety-related for one ormore of the following reasons:a) Pressure boundary integrityb) MountingThe transducer must be mounted in

13、a manner that prevents it from affecting the performance of othersafety-related equipment, such as following a seismic event.c) Electrical connectionThe transducer must be electrically installed in a manner that prevents it from affecting theperformance of other safety-related equipment.d) FunctionT

14、he transducers signal is to be utilized in the performance of a safety-related function.If the reason that a transducer is classified as safety-related is its function, then all of the criteria of thisdocument should be considered for applicability. However, if a transducer is safety-related due to

15、one ofthe other three reasons, only certain criteria within this document need to be considered for applicability.Consider, for example, a transducer whose only safety-related function is its pressure boundary. Thosecriteria within this document relative to ensuring that the transducer maintains the

16、 pressure boundarywould be applicable to the transducer. Criteria associated with electrical connections, separation,calibration, testing, etc. may not be relevant to such a transducer. Similarly, the user of a transducerwhose only safety-related function is its electrical connection would find the

17、criteria of this standardassociated with maintaining that electrical connection to be applicable. Criteria associated with process-fluid connections, environmental considerations, accessibility, etc. may not be applicable for such atransducer.It is the responsibility of the user to determine the rea

18、sons that a transducer is classified as safety-relatedand to apply the criteria of this document that will maintain these safety-related functions.4.1.1 In-line transducersInstallations of transducers in Code piping, vessels, or equipment shall comply with the Code.- 13 - ANSI/ISA-67.01.01-2002Trans

19、ducers for nuclear safety-related applications may be installed in or connected to non-Code piping,vessels, or equipment, as necessary to obtain measurements from non-Code systems. The Code shallnot apply to these installations.4.1.2 Off-line transducersThe Code shall not apply to off-line transduce

The barriers shall be designed consistent with the seismicqualification requirements for the protected devices.5.4 Auxiliary equipmentUnless otherwise justified, the requirements of 5.2 and 5.3 shall a

43、pply to auxiliary equipment.ANSI/ISA-67.01.01-2002 - 16 -6 Location of equipment6.1 Selecting a location6.1.1 Transducers shall not be installed in locations with environments that may exceed the qualifiedcapabilities of the transducer, except when it can be shown that a potentially adverse environm

44、ent willexist only after the transducers function is no longer required. For instance, transducers with no post-accident requirements may be located in the reactor containment without being qualified for post-accidentenvironments, so long as their failure will not degrade the availability of other e

45、quipment that is requiredto be operable. Selection of locations for transducers should consider the availability of transducersqualified to operate in the various design environments.6.1.2 Transducers shall be located or enclosed as necessary to protect them against physical damage,radiation, freezi

46、ng, and changes or rates-of-change in ambient conditions in excess of that for which theyhave been qualified.6.2 Separation of redundant transducers6.2.1 Transducers shall be located so that no credible single event can prevent the required nuclearsafety-related functions. Piping, tubing, and wiring

47、 associated with the transducers shall be placed withsimilar attention to separation of locations. A minimum of 450 mm (18 in.) separation shall be providedbetween surfaces of redundant transducers. Where analysis shows that specific postulated events,including but not limited to fires, missiles, an

48、d fluid jets, could circumvent the protection afforded by thisseparation, additional spacing or protective barriers shall be provided. Protective barriers may also beused in lieu of separation where it is impractical to maintain the required spacing. If barriers are used, aminimum of 25 mm (1 in.) o

49、f free space shall be provided on each side between transducers and thebarrier.6.2.2 Where redundant transducers must be included on the same structure, service access to thetransducers, or to the subassemblies of one transducer, shall be separated from access to componentsor subassemblies of their redundant counterpart(s). (For instance, with cabinet construction, separateaccess doors should be provided.)6.3 Accessibility for periodic test and service6.3.1 The transducers should be located in an accessible place for ease of periodic testing, servicing,removal, and replacement.
