5、 requirementsfor lining work. In cases in which the manufacturers instruc-tions and recommendations differ from this specification, thesedifferences shall be resolved before fabrication is started.1.4 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard. The values given in parenthese
6、s are mathematicalconversions to SI units that are provided for information onlyand are not considered standard.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate saf
7、ety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2. Design/Engineering Requirements2.1 Rigidity:2.1.1 The components shall be designed so that the interiormetal surfaces are sufficiently rigid for the intended liningmaterials. Manufacturers recommendat
8、ions for maximumstrains or deflection limits for the lining material shall befollowed.2.1.2 The weight of the lining system shall be considered inthe structural design of the component.2.1.3 The design shall consider the effects of pressure, wind,seismic and other design loads.2.1.4 Vibration may ca
9、use flexing or high surface strains onthe lining. This is of particular concern to rigid lining materialsand shall be minimized.2.1.5 Special consideration shall be given to all conditionsof potentially excessive strain such as unsupported bottomareas, oil-canning, out of roundness, sidewall-to-bott
10、om joints,and so forth.2.1.5.1 Where a component is on a concrete foundation,grouting shall be done if necessary to correct unsupportedbottom areas.2.1.5.2 Sand fill shall not be used for bottom support unlessprovisions are made to ensure that the sand cannot be lost as aresult of erosion.2.2 Access

16、States.2.3.3 The maximum length of flanged nozzles, 4 in. (100mm) and greater in diameter, shall not exceed the dimensionsin Table 1.2.3.3.1 Only 4 in. (100 mm) diameter and larger nozzlesshall be used for maximum reliability of the lining system.2.3.3.2 As an alternative to lined nozzles, compatibl
17、e pre-fabricated, reinforced plastic, ceramic or alloy metal inserts(sleeves) may be used if they offer superior corrosion andabrasion protection. Lining shall overlap onto prefabricatedliners.2.3.3.3 If an insert is used as an alternate, the lining shalloverlap unto the insert or some other means o
18、f ensuring anadequate seal should be provided.2.3.4 Lining thickness may dictate changes in nozzle di-mensions to achieve design flow rates.2.4 Appurtenances inside Components:2.4.1 The requirements in Sections 2 and 3 apply to anyappurtenances that are being lined and installed inside a linedcompon
19、ent, such as agitators, anti-swirl baffles, gauging de-vices, internal piping, ladders, and support brackets.2.4.2 If appurtenances inside the component cannot belined, they shall be made of corrosion-resistant materials. Ifalloys are used, the lining shall carry over the welded area ontothe alloy a
20、 minimum of 3 in. (76 mm). Some linings mayrequire special designs to protect the edge of the lining. Ifbolted connections are used, dielectric insulation shall beprovided.2.4.3 Heating elements shall be attached with a minimumclearance of 6 in. (150 mm) from the surface of the linedcomponent. Great
21、er clearance may be required to protect thelining from excessive temperature conditions depending on thetemperature of the element.2.4.4 Special precautions shall be taken in lined componentswhere severe abrasion/impingement damage may occur. Pre-cautionary design measures, such as wear plates, bric
22、k liners oradded coating thickness, shall be considered when necessary.2.5 Structural Reinforcement Members and Supports:2.5.1 Structural reinforcement members (stiffeners) shouldbe installed on the vessel exterior wherever necessary. How-ever, if such members are installed internally they shall bef
23、abricated of simple closed shapes such as round bars, pipe, orbox beams for ease of applying the lining material.2.5.2 The use of box beams or pipe for internal supports isrecommended. The use of angles, channels, I-beams and othercomplex shapes shall be avoided wherever possible. If theymust be ins
24、talled internally, these members shall be fully sealwelded and the edges ground to a18 in. (3 mm) minimumradius.2.5.3 If closed chambers are formed with internal boxbeams or pipes, they shall be vented to the vessel exterior at thelowest point, so that pressures are not developed duringoperation and
25、 possible curing procedures and so that corrosion,caused by localized lining failures, can be observed early.3. Fabrication3.1 Welds:3.1.1 All internal welds to be lined shall be continuouswithout imperfections such as weld slag, weld spatter, roughsurfaces, undercutting, high peaks, porosity, sharp
26、 corners,sharp edges, and inadequate thickness. Imperfections shall becorrected (see Fig. 1).3.1.2 The degree of weld preparation before lining dependson the type of lining to be applied. The lining manufacturershall be consulted for specific requirements for weld prepara-tion during the design of t
27、he component and before start offabrication.3.1.3 Use of weld display samples before and after grindingmay be of help to the component fabricator in supplyingacceptable welds with a minimum required rework. All weldsshall be inspected, corrected, and reinspected before blastcleaning. Whenever possib
28、le, shop welds shall be inspectedand imperfections corrected in the fabricators shop.TABLE 1 Maximum Length of NozzlesNominal Nozzle Size,in. (mm)Maximum Nozzle LengthShell to Face of Flange,in.
