1、Designation: D7327 17Standard Specification forHFC Blend B (CH2FCF3, CHF2CF3, and CO2)1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D7327; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number i

2、n parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers requirements for HFC Blend Bas a fire-fighting medium.1.2 This specification does not address the fire-fightingequipm

3、ent or hardware that employs HFC Blend B or theconditions of employing such equipment (for example,handhelds, fixed installations, etc.).1.3 This specification does not address the storage ortransportation of HFC Blend B. Storage, handling, and trans-portation issues are addressed in Practice D7326.

By definition, the first digit of thenumbering system represents one less than the number ofcarbon atoms in the compound molecule; the second digit, onemore than the number

11、 of hydrogen atoms in the compoundmolecule; and the third digit, the number of fluorine atoms inthe compound molecule. Unaccounted for valence require-ments are assumed to be chlorine atoms. For example, thedesignation HFC-123 indicates two carbon atoms (1 + 1), twohydrogen atoms (3-1), and four flu

Material Requirements4.1 Type I M

18、ixtures of HFC Blend B and Nitrogen:4.1.1 The nitrogen (N2) partial pressure shall be such thatthe safe working pressure of the receiving vessel is notexceeded. To prevent excessive pressure, the fill density ofHFC Blend B within a container should not exceed that neededto achieve complete filling o

19、f the container at the maximumenvisaged storage temperature. For example, for the U.S. DOT4BA500 cylinder, the nitrogen partial pressure shall not exceed316 psig at 70 F (21.8 bar at 21 C) for a 58 lb/ft3(930 kg/m3)fill density (yielding a total pressure of 360 psig at 70 F (25.8bar at 21 C). For th

20、is example, the safe working pressure ofthe 4BA500 cylinder is not exceeded for temperatures below130 F (54 C).4.1.2 HFC Blend B shall conform to the requirementsprescribed in Table 1 when tested by appropriate test methods,such as those listed in Section 6.4.1.3 When a material analysis is required

21、, by agreementbetween the purchaser and the supplier, the total pressure in theHFC Blend B container, partial pressure of the N2, the filldensity of HFC Blend B within the container, and the maxi-mum safe storage temperature shall be part of the materialanalysis (certification). The pressure shall b

22、e reported inpound-force per square inch gage (preferred) or bar. The filldensity shall be reported in pounds per cubic foot at 70 F(preferred) or kilograms per cubic meter at 21 C. The maxi-mum safe storage temperature of the HFC Blend B containershall be reported in degrees Fahrenheit (preferred)

23、or indegrees Celsius and shall conform to applicable regulations forthe HFC Blend B container design and use.4.2 Type II, HFC Blend B shall conform to the requirementsof Type I, as listed in 4.1, and shall contain no more than 1.5% by volume non-absorbable non-condensable gases in vaporphase, expres

24、sed as air when tested by the appropriate testmethod(s) listed in Section 6.4.3 By agreement between the purchaser and the supplier,analysis may be required and limits established for elements orcompounds not specified in Table 1.4.4 Unless otherwise specified, Type II is assumed.4.5 WarningProlonge
