22、0 BS EN ISO 10438-4:2007iv Foreword ISO (the International Organization 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
23、 in a subject for which a technical committee has been established 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 Comm
24、ission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technic
25、al committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO sha
26、ll not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 10438-4 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 67, Materials, equipment and offshore structures for petroleum, petrochemical and natural gas industries, Subcommittee SC 6, Processing equipment and systems. This second
27、edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 10438-4:2003), which has been technically revised. ISO 10438 consists of the following parts, under the general title Petroleum, petrochemical and natural gas industries Lubrication, shaft-sealing and control-oil systems and auxiliaries: Part 1: Ge
28、neral requirements Part 2: Special-purpose oil systems Part 3: General-purpose oil systems Part 4: Self-acting gas seal support systems BS EN ISO 10438-4:2007vIntroduction This International Standard was developed jointly with API 614, 5th edition. ISO 10438 is divided into four parts corresponding
29、to the four chapters of API 614. Users of this part of ISO 10438 should be aware that further or differing requirements might be needed for individual applications. This part of ISO 10438 is not intended to inhibit a vendor from offering, or the purchaser from accepting, alternative equipment or eng
30、ineering solutions for the individual application. This may be particularly appropriate where there is innovative or developing technology. Where an alternative is offered, the vendor should identify any variations from this part of ISO 10438 and provide details. It is intended that this part of ISO
31、 10438 be used in conjunction with 10438-1. This part of ISO 10438 requires the purchaser to specify certain details and features. A bullet () at the beginning of a clause or subclause indicates that either a decision is required or further information is to be provided by the purchaser. This inform
32、ation or decision should be indicated on the datasheet(s); otherwise it should be stated in the quotation request or in the order. In this International Standard, US customary (USC) units are included in brackets for information. BS EN ISO 10438-4:2007blank1Petroleum, petrochemical and natural gas i
33、ndustries Lubrication, shaft-sealing and control-oil systems and auxiliaries Part 4: Self-acting gas seal support systems 1 Scope This part of ISO 10438 in conjunction with ISO 10438-1 specifies requirements for support systems for self-acting gas seals (dry gas seals), for example as described in I
34、SO 10439 and ISO 10440-1. These systems can serve equipment such as compressors, gears, pumps and drivers. NOTE For the purposes of this statement of scope, API 617 is equivalent to ISO 10439 and API 619 is equivalent to ISO 10440-1. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indi
35、spensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies.

38、SO 10438-4:20072 4 General 4.1 System selection Datasheets for system specifications are provided in Annex A. Annex B provides schemas of typical system components and diagrams of typical, complete dry gas seal support systems and modules. These schemas and diagrams illustrate the general philosophy
39、 and requirements of this part of ISO 10438 and are included to assist the purchaser in the selection of an appropriate system. The purchaser and the vendor shall mutually agree upon an acceptable system. Annex C provides an inspector checklist of typical items reviewed by the purchaser. 4.2 Basic d
40、esign 4.2.1 The equipment (including auxiliaries) covered by this part of ISO 10438 shall be designed and constructed for a minimum service life of 20 years and at least 5 years of uninterrupted operation. NOTE It is recognized that this is a design criterion. z 4.2.2 If specified, the purchaser may
41、 specify the vendor responsible for each portion of the design, scope of supply, installation and performance of the dry gas seal system. If the purchaser is not the end user, then the end user shall approve the vendors specified. z 4.2.3 The purchaser shall specify the equipments normal operating p
42、oint and all other operating points. Other parameters required for the design of the seal support system, such as gas composition, maximum and minimum flare pressure, maximum and minimum sealing pressure and settle-out pressure shall also be specified. 4.2.4 Unless otherwise specified, the lube-oil
43、console and the dry gas seal module shall be mounted on separate skids. 4.2.5 The dry gas seal system shall be designed to serve the full range of equipment operating conditions specified. These conditions may include but are not limited to the following: a) settle-out pressures; b) process relief-v
44、alve settings; c) shop test and field run-ins; d) start-up conditions; e) gas composition. NOTE This requires a detailed system review with the equipment suppliers, purchaser and owner, and is normally finalized at the coordination meeting. 4.2.6 Control systems shall provide adequate gas velocity a
45、cross the labyrinths at all clearances, including minimum labyrinth clearance to twice the maximum design labyrinth clearance to prevent migration of contaminents from the process gas. NOTE In a flow-control system, velocity across the labyrinths decreases as clearances increase. 4.2.7 All gas strea
46、ms (including alternate, backup, start-up sources) into the seal shall be provided at a temperature of at least 20 K (35 R) above their dew point in order to preclude the possibility of liquid entering the dry gas seal. BS EN ISO 10438-4:20073NOTE 1 On some systems, the discharge temperature of the
47、compressor gas stream might not provide this dew-point margin. NOTE 2 In some cases, this can require heaters and/or heat tracing by the owner. The dew-point margin shall be maintained throughout the seal and not just at the supply connections. In some cases, alternate gases to the process gas shoul
48、d be considered for start-up or dew-point reasons. z 4.2.8 If specified, additional provision for seal-gas conditioning as specified by the purchaser shall be furnished. NOTE Gas conditioning can involve heat tracing, alternate seal-gas sources, coalescing filters, or other provisions. 4.2.9 Valved
49、vents, drains and piping shall be furnished to permit draining, cleaning and refilling of idle components, such as filter elements, while the equipment is in operation. 4.2.10 Seal-gas module piping shall be arranged such that it can be manually drained prior to start-up to avoid the possibility of condensed liquids entering the seals. This is also a requirement for interconnecting piping that shall be followed by the packager or installation contractor. z 4.2.11 The purchaser shall specify when and wh
