20、COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL NOT AUTHORIZED FOR FURTHER REPRODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM UL INTRODUCTION 1 Scope 1.1 These requirements cover complete, self-contained strainer or lter assemblies intended for use with the fuels designated in 1.2. Although these devices are designated stra

21、iners, they may be either strainers or lters according to the common terminology of the industry. 1.2 Strainers and lter assemblies covered by these requirements are intended for use with one or more of the following: a) Diesel fuel and diesel/biodiesel blends with nominal biodiesel concentrations u

22、p to 5 percent (B0 B5) formulated in accordance with the Standard Specication for Diesel Fuel Oils, ANSI/ ASTM D975; b) Diesel/biodiesel blends with nominal biodiesel concentrations from 5 percent up to 20 percent (B6 B20) formulated in accordance with the Standard Specication for Diesel Fuel Oil, B

23、iodiesel Blends (B6 B20), ANSI/ASTM D7467; c) Biodiesel (B99.9/B100) formulated in accordance with the Standard Specication for Biodiesel Fuel Blend Stock (B100) for Middle Distillate Fuels, ANSI/ASTM D6751; d) Kerosene formulated in accordance with the Standard Specication for Kerosine, ANSI/ ASTM

24、D3699; e) Fuel oil (heating oil) formulated in accordance with the Standard Specication for Fuel Oils, ANSI/ASTM D396. 1.3 These requirements do not cover the following: a) Strainers for handling liquids under cryogenic conditions; b) Straniers for marine use; c) Strainers for automotive fuel lines;

25、 d) Strainers for handling refrigerants; e) Strainers for use in such facilities as chemical, petrochemical, petroleum, and utility power plants; f) Strainers for use in uid-power (hydraulic and pneumatic) applications; g) Strainers or lter assemblies for use with gasoline or gasoline/ethanol blends

26、, which are covered under the Outline of Investigation for Strainers for Gasoline and Gasoline/Ethanol Blends with Nominal Ethanol Concentrations Up to 85 Percent (E0 E85), UL 331A h) Strainers or lter assemblies for use with LP-Gas, Natural Gas, Manufactured Gas, and Anhydrous Ammonia, which are co

27、vered under the Standard for Strainers for Flammable Fluids and Anhydrous Ammonia, UL 331.

28、d by this standard shall comply with the requirements for that component. 2.2 A component is not required to comply with a specic requirement that: a) Involves a feature or characteristic not required in the application of the component in the product covered by this standard, or b) Is superseded by

29、 a requirement in this standard. 2.3 A component shall be used in accordance with its rating established for the intended conditions of use. 2.4 Specic components are incomplete in construction features or restricted in performance capabilities. Such components are intended for use only under limite

30、d conditions, such as certain temperatures not exceeding specied limits, and shall be used only under those specic conditions. 3 Units of Measurement 3.1 If a value for measurement is followed by a value in other units in parentheses, the rst stated value is the requirement. 4 Undated References 4.1

31、 Any undated reference to a code or standard appearing in the requirements of this standard shall be interpreted as referring to the latest edition of that code or standard. CONSTRUCTION 5 General 5.1 A strainer shall include all of the components necessary for its intended function and installation

32、, and shall be furnished as a complete assembly. Strainers may be one of two types: a) Removable assemblies, or b) Non-removable assemblies with removable strainer elements. In this standard, the term strainer applies to both types, and requirements that apply to a specic type will designate that ty

33、pe in the text of the requirement. 5.2 The construction of a strainer shall be such that parts can be reassembled in the intended manner after being dismantled to the extent needed for servicing.

34、N WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM UL 5.3 A strainer shall be constructed so that, when in its intended operating position, any air trapped within will not reduce the rate of liquid ow or the effective strainer element capacity. 5.4 A non-removable strainer employing a strainer element intended to be cleaned

35、 or replaced shall permit the removal of the element without disconnecting piping. 5.5 A strainer element shall be constructed so that joints or seals required to prevent uid bypass of the element will be maintained. 5.6 A non-removable strainer shall be constructed so that when the screen or lter e

36、lement is removed for cleaning, all foreign matter (sediment and dirt) will be removed or can be removed without the probability of any foreign matter being deposited in the outlet side of the strainer. 6 Materials 6.1 Metallic materials 6.1.1 General 6.1.1.1 A metallic part, in contact with the fue

37、ls anticipated by these requirements, shall be resistant to the action of the fuel if degradation of the material will result in leakage of the fuel or if it will impair the function of the device. For non-removable strainer assemblies for all fuel ratings covered by this standard, see the Long Term

38、 Exposure Test, Section 11. For removable strainer assemblies, the Long Term Exposure Test does not apply. 6.1.1.2 The exposed surfaces of metallic parts shall be resistant to atmospheric corrosion if this corrosion will lead to leakage of the uid or if it will impair the function of the device. The

39、 material shall comply with the requirements in Atmospheric corrosion, 6.1.2. 6.1.1.3 Metallic parts in contact with the fuels anticipated by these requirements shall not be constructed of lead, or materials that are substantially lead. In addition, no coatings or platings containing lead shall be u

40、sed, such as terne-plated steel. 6.1.1.4 With reference to the above requirements, metallic parts including metallic materials used to form uid conning parts as well as metallic coatings, or plating that may be applied to a base material.
