7、queeze-Off Procedures to AvoidLong-Term Damage in Polyethylene (PE) Gas Pipe2.2 Other Standards:GRI-92/0147.2 Volume 2: Technical Reference on Squeeze-off of Polyethylene Gas Pipes33. Significance and Use3.1 Squeeze-off is a technique used to control the flow ofgas through a pipe by the compressing

8、action of a mechanicalor hydraulic device. Squeeze-off may be used to reduce theflow of gas to an acceptable rate.3.2 Proper squeeze-off procedures result in significant timesaving in the reduction of gas flow in an emergency and in themaintenance and operation, or both, of a gas distributionsystem.

9、 Improper squeeze-off can cause damage to the pipe orcreate a safety hazard, or both.4. Operator Experience4.1 Each squeeze-off shall be made in accordance withwritten procedures in accordance with Practice F1734, thathave been proven to produce safe squeeze-off. The personactually responsible for t

10、he squeeze-off shall ensure thatdetailed procedures are developed in conjunction with theowner of the pipe system, the manufacturer of the pipe, and themanufacturer of the squeeze-off tools. These procedures shallinclude safety precautions to be followed and are to be issuedbefore actual squeeze-off

11、 operations commence.4.2 Skill and knowledge on the part of the operator arerequired to control the flow of gas to achieve a safe squeeze-off. This skill and knowledge shall be obtained by makingsqueeze-offs in accordance with written procedures in accor-dance with Practice F1734.5. Pipe and Conditi

12、ons5.1 In order to obtain proper squeeze-off, it is necessary toconsider the pipe diameter, wall thickness, pipe material,internal pressure, squeeze tool(s), squeeze-off procedure andenvironmental conditions.

Apparatus6.1 Tools to squeeze-off polyolefin gas pressure pipe andtubing shall conform to the requirements of F1563.7. Procedure7.1 Proper squeeze-off procedu

17、res developed in accordancewith Practice F1734 shall address safety considerations, toollocation, tool operation, tool removal, and post squeeze-offconsiderations.7.2 Safety ConsiderationsPressure control situations re-quiring squeeze-off may involve working in the vicinity ofescaping gas. Consider

18、the possibility and potential hazard ofstatic electricity and observe safety precautions. Safety precau-tions regarding static electricity generally include performingthe squeeze-off in operation in separate bellhole isolated fromthe blowing gas, grounding the squeeze-off tool and applying asoapy wa

19、ter solution and wet nonsynthetic cloth (such ascotton or burlap material) or commercially available electro-static discharge fluid and polyethylene tape wrap to the pipesurface to provide for dissipation of static charge to the ground.Check the squeeze-off tool prior to use to ensure it is thecorre

20、ct size, is properly functioning, and is properly adjustedfor the squeeze-off to be done.7.3 Tool LocationCenter the squeeze-off tool on andsquare to the pipe. This will allow the pipe to flatten freelywithout jamming against the tool frame or abutments. Locatethe squeeze-off tool at least three pip

21、e diameters or 12 in. (305mm), whichever is greater, from any fusion joint (1.5 diametersfor butt-fusion joint) or mechanical fitting.7.4 Tool OperationOperate the squeeze-off tool at a rateslow enough to allow stress relaxation in the pipe to occur.Experience indicates that compression rates of 2 i

22、n. per min. orless are appropriate. This is particularly helpful when pipebecomes stiff in cold weather. Squeeze the pipe until the flowof gas ceases or the mechanical stop is contacted, whichevercomes first. Continuing to operate the squeeze-off tool beyondthis point can cause pipe or tool damage.

23、When the squeezed-off position is reached, on some tools, a mechanical lock-offdevice must be manually engaged.7.5 Tool RemovalRemove the squeeze-off tool in a con-trolled manner. If the tool has a mechanical lock-off device,disengage it. Avoid sudden release of mechanical or hydraulicpressure. Cont

24、rolled release is necessary so flow control maybe quickly reestablished if required. A release rate of 0.5in./min or less should be maintained to prevent pipe materialdamage. Rerounding the pipe is an option which should beexercised on the basis of improvement in gas flow or otherconcerns, rather th

25、an damage mitigation. If rerounding ispreformed, reround the pipe by rotating the squeeze-off tool90 and applying enough force to round the pipe or by using aspecial tool designed for this purpose.7.6 Post Squeeze-off Considerations After the squeeze-offtool has been removed, inspect the squeezed se

26、ction for anydamage. Procedures should include actions to be taken ifdamage is found. Procedures should not allow the same area tobe squeezed off more than once. When an emergency conditionrequires squeeze-off without regard for possible pipe damage,the procedure should include actions to be taken b
