United States1code calculations are selected from these data. Specific m andy values can be selected based on a max

15、imum desired leak rateor derived from these data as described in this procedure. Thispractice addresses the influence of leak rate and gasketthickness on a gaskets ability to provide a seal initially and inoperation. This practice is performed at room temperature;therefore, this practice does not ac

16、count for all conditions, suchas high temperature or thermal cycling or both, that boltedflange connections may be subject to in field application.4.2 This practice determines two general characteristics thatare specific to the ASME design criteria. Caution should beexercised when comparing yield an

17、d maintenance factorsbetween gasket materials, and it is recommended that the mand y curves be compared. Selecting a gasket material for usein an application should not be based exclusively on these twogeneral characteristics. Gasket material selection for a givenapplication should consider addition

18、al information not de-scribed in this practice, which includes, but is not limited to,chemical resistance, thermal resistance, creep relaxation,compressibility, and accommodation of thermal cycling.4.3 This practice builds upon work conducted in the FluidSealing Association (FSA G 605:11). The assoc

19、iated roundrobin data is provided for reference in Tables 1-4.5. Apparatus5.1 The test apparatus is composed of three elements: testfixture, loading technique, and leak measurement.5.2 The test fixture may use a flange or platen press. Thesurface finish of the sealing area shall meet rules stated in

20、ASME B16.5 for acceptable surface finish with a roughness of125 to 250 in. (3.2 to 6.6 m).5.3 Hydraulically loaded flanges or platen presses are ac-ceptable. (The use of manual loading platens is not acceptable.)If a bolted flange fixture is selected, then loading of thefasteners shall be bolt stret

21、ch controlled. (The use of torquecontrolled loading is not acceptable.) Examples of bolt-stretch-controlled loading include the use of calibrated bolts andultrasonic devices. In addition, bolted flange fixtures shall beassembled per ASME PCC-1 guidance to minimize variabilityof test results. Such va

22、riables include flange parallelism, boltloading pattern, and multi-stage tightening levels.5.4 A leak measurement system is required. Leak measure-ment methods include differential pressure gage, manometer,flowmeter, and mass spectrometry. The test fixture shall have acontainment system to capture l

23、eakage outside the gasket,except when flow is measured upstream of the fixture.NOTE 1If leak rate is measured with a mass spectrometer, themeasured leak rate will be higher because of the higher pressuredifferential across the gasket, especially in the y value portion of the test.This is due to the

24、vacuum created at the gasket outside diameter by themass spectrometer.6. Test Specimen6.1 The test specimen should have a gasket width of 0.5 in.(12.7 mm) or greater. The inside and outside diameter of thegasket should be agreed upon between the producer and user.6.2 The recommended specimen thickne

25、sses are116 and18in. (1.6 and 3.2 mm).7. Conditioning7.1 Condition the gasket in accordance with ClassificationSystem F104, Classification F868, or as agreed upon betweenthe producer and user.7.2 Ensure the flange face is clean and free of defects,scratches, or foreign material, or a combination the

Procedure8.1 Determining Yield Factor, y:8.1.1 Measure and record the initial gasket thickness ininches per the procedure described in Classification F104.8.1.2 Record the surface finish of the flanges or platens (seeSection 5).8.1.3 Center the gasket on the flange face or platen.8.1.4 Load
