SCOPE:This recommended practice covers a self

5、-contained detection system which is capable of pressurizing a closed system up to 70 psig with halogen (tracer) gas and up to 3500 psig with nitrogen.1.1 An external tracer gas supply may be used to increase the capacity of the system. The detector shall be capable of detecting leaks as small as .0

6、5 ounce of tracer gas per year, with a system pressure of 70 psig or less.1.2 Purpose:The purpose of this document is to provide a recommended practice for the design of a universal leak detector which will pressurize a closed system with a mixture of inert and tracer gas and provide a probe and det

7、ector to indicate location and rate of system leakage with a high degree of accuracy.2.

10、in fabrication shall be of the best commercial quality and suitable for the purpose.3.1.2 Workmanship: All details of workmanship specified on the drawings shall be in accordance with high-grade commercial practices. The article produced shall be free of defects which might affect its serviceability

11、 or function.4. SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS:4.1 General:The console shall be capable of controlling the pressurization of a closed system with tracer gas and nitrogen gas, within maximum pressures herein specified. The assembly shall be capable of monitoring the system pressures.4.2 Mobility:The console a

12、ssembly shall have the capability of being easily moved on casters. The console assembly shall be able to pass thru a 30 inch wide opening.4.3 Design Configuration:Design configuration shall be of a mobile console concept (see Figures 1 and 2). The assembly shall contain, but not be limited to the f

13、ollowing:4.3.1 Console: The console shall contain hardware necessary to control pressurization of the system being leak-tested, detect the presence of leaks, and vent the system being checked. The console shall have adequate storage space to house all components such as hoses, cables, and instrument

14、s.4.3.2 Standard Control Unit: The console shall contain a standard control unit, including a voltage regulator, a vibrator type air pump, an audible alarm, and a control panel.4.3.3 Detector: The tracer gas detector shall be a hand-held detector used as a probe for passing over welds, seams, joints

15、 and other areas of potential leakage.4.3.4 Nitrogen Gas Regulator: The nitrogen gas regulator shall be capable of regulating nitrogen gas pressure of 3600 psig to an outlet pressure of 100 5 psig, 500 20 psig, 1500 50 psig and3500 75 psig.SAE ARP726 Revision A- 3 -4.3.5 Tracer Gas Regulator: The tr

16、acer gas regulator shall be capable of regulating a self-contained tracer gas pressure source of 75 psig.4.3.6 Metering Valves: The metering valves shall be capable of controlling the rate of flow of either the tracer or nitrogen gas into the system undergoing pressurization.4.3.7 Pressure Relief Va

17、lve: Pressure relief shall be preset and sealed at a pressure compatible with the system being pressurized. These valves shall be connected to the pressurization line so that the system pressure shall not exceed allowable limits.4.3.8 Test Gage: Test gages graduated from zero (0) psig to maximum gag

18、e pressure1shall be mounted in the control panel to indicate the pressure in the system being leak tested.4.3.9 Filters: Filters allowing passage of 10 micron (maximum) size particles shall be incorporated in the upstream side of the gas pressure regulators to avoid system contamination.4.3.10 Power

19、 Cables: Power cables of 25-ft minimum length shall be provided to carry electrical power single-phase 115-VAC 60-cycle power source and ground connection to the leak detector.4.3.11 Pneumatic Hoses: The following pneumatic hoses, compatible with system pressurization, shall be included as part of t

20、he leak-detector assembly:4.3.11.1 One 100-psig flexible hose, 50 feet long. This hose shall be used to pressurize the tracer gas portion of the system being leak tested.4.3.11.2 Three 3500-psig flexible hoses, each 50 feet long. These hoses shall be used to:- Pressurize the nitrogen portion of the

21、system being leak-tested.- Transfer nitrogen gas from a 3500-psig source to the leak-detector assembly.- Allow the expulsion of the gases from the system after the leak has been completed.- Couplings used with the various pressure hose shall not be interchangeable with each other.4.3.12 Tracer Gas:

22、Space for one 10-pound bottle Halogen Tracer Gas (Freon-12-dichlorodifluoromethane CCL2F2)2shall be incorporated in the console assembly to provide charging of the system being leak-checked with tracer gas. An external connection to allow an increase in the gas capacity shall be provided.4.3.13 Nitr

23、ogen Gas: Nitrogen gas for pressurizing the system to be tested shall be facility-supplied.1. One gage for each range of test pressures indicated in paragraph 4.3.4.2.
