12、tandard has been prepared under the direction of the Pressure Vessel Standards Committee. It is a revision of BS759:1975 incorporating such requirements as are necessitated by technical developments. The decision taken to align the requirements for safety valves with those of ISO4126 “Safety valves,

13、 general requirements”, published by the InternationalOrganization for Standardization, has resulted in a change of format of this revision compared with that adopted for the 1975 edition. Part 1 of this standard deals with valves, mountings and fittings, other than safety valves, for steam and hot

14、water installations. Section 5 of Part 1 dealing with requirements for automatic working draws attention to the recommendations contained in the Health and Safety Executive Guidance Note PM5. The hydraulic pressure testing requirements for components complying with Part1 of this standard are in many

15、 cases equal to or greater than those for the boiler to which they will be fitted, but in any case it can be taken that any valve or fitting supplied to this standard will be capable of sustaining, against a closed valve where appropriate, a hydraulic test pressure equal to 1.5 times the design pres

16、sure of the valve as specified to the valve supplier by the purchaser. Part 1 deals with the materials and construction of valves, gauges and other fittings, but is not intended to cover all details of their installation, for which reference should be made to the appropriate British Standard. It is

17、recognized that clauses (reproduced in Appendix A) regarding inspecting facilities and testing facilities which have traditionally been incorporated into safety valve standards are a contractual matter. Nevertheless their importance is such that the purchaser in agreeing a contract should not overlo

18、ok them. Part 2 of this standard has been created by amendments to the requirements of the 1975 edition of BS759. This Part is declared obsolescent and will be withdrawn in December 1987. Its retention is to give manufacturers a period of grace in which to align their products with BS6759-1. NOTE 1I

19、n order to ensure the correct functioning of the fittings in this standard, it is essential that suitable equipment be provided to enable the proper condition of the feedwater to the boiler and the water in the boiler to be maintained. NOTE 2The use of asbestos is controlled by the Asbestos Regulati

20、ons 1969 S.I. No. 690 made under the Factories Act, 1961, and particular attention is drawn to the danger associated with blue asbestos (crocidolite). Further information is available in the Health and Safety Executive Guidance Note EH/10, Environmental Hygiene, Asbestos. A British Standard does not

21、 purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside fr

23、is Part of this British Standard specifies requirements for steam and water fittings excluding safety valves for boiler installations where the steam pressure exceeds 1 bar gauge or, in the case of hot water boilers, the rating is 44kW and above. It also specifies requirements for fittings for boile

24、rs used exclusively for the following: a) low pressure steam heating in which the whole of the condensate is returned to the boiler on a closed circuit; b) hot water central heating; c) hot water supply. It deals with valves, boiler blowdown mountings, water level gauges, high and low water level al

25、arms, pressure gauges, test connections and fusible plugs. Where appropriate, general recommendations relating to the installation of fittings are included for the guidance of users. Additional requirements specific to steam and hot water boilers, arranged for automatic working, are given in section

26、 5. This Part does not cover fittings for boilers used in open vented hot water systems working at temperatures not exceeding 100 C nor for storage water heaters of the unvented type which normally operate at temperatures not exceeding 82 C and at pressures not exceeding 10 bar 1) . For such boilers

27、 within the scope of BS779 and BS855 the requirements are incorporated in those standards. NOTEThe titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover. 2 Definitions For the purposes of this Part of BS759 the following definitions apply. 2.1 blowdown the remov
