2、orch fire test. a. A torch-fire environment must be simu-lated in the following manner: (1) The source of the simulated torch must be a hydrocarbon fuel with a flame tempera-ture of 1,204 C (2,200 F), plus-or-minus 37.8 C (100 F), throughout the duration of the test. Furthermore, torch velocities mu

(2) A square bare plate with thermal prop-erties equivalent to the material of construc-tion of the tank car must be used. The plate dimensions must be at least four feet by four feet by nominal 1.6 cm (0.625 inch) thick.

4、The bare plate must be instrumented with not less than nine thermocouples to record the thermal response of the plate. The thermocouples must be attached to the sur-face not exposed to the simulated torch and must be divided into nine equal squares with a thermocouple placed in the center of each sq

The apex of the flame must be directed at the center of the plate. (4) Before exposure to the simulated

6、 torch, none of the temperature recording devices may indicate a plate temperature in excess of 37.8 C (100 F) or less than 0 C (32 F). (5) A minimum of two thermocouples must indicate 427 C (800 F) in four minutes, plus- or-minus 30 seconds, of torch simulation ex-posure. b. A thermal protection sy

7、stem must be tested in the simulated torch-fire environ-ment described in paragraph 3a of this ap-pendix in the following manner: (1) The thermal protection system must cover one side of the bare plate identical to that used to simulate a torch fire under paragraph 3a(2) of this appendix. (2) The ba

8、ck of the bare plate must be in-strumented with not less than nine thermocouples placed as described in para-graph 3a(2) of this appendix to record the thermal response of the material. (3) Before exposure to the simulated torch, none of the thermocouples on the back side of the thermal protection s

(4) The entire outside surface of the ther-mal protection system must be exposed to the simulated torch-fire environment. (5) A torch-simulation test must be run for a minimum of 30 minutes.

10、The thermal pro-tection system must retard the heat flow to the plate so that none of the thermocouples on the backside of the bare plate indicate a plate temperature in excess of 427 C (800 F).

31、on, Mainte-nance and Use of Cylinders SOURCE: 67 FR 51660, Aug. 8, 2002, unless otherwise noted. 180.201 Applicability. This subpart prescribes require-ments, in addition to those contained in parts 107, 171, 172, 173, and 178 of this chapter, for the continuing qualifica-tion, maintenance, or perio

32、dic requali-fication of DOT specification and ex-emption cylinders and UN pressure re-ceptacles. 71 FR 33894, June 12, 2006 180.203 Definitions. As used in this section, the word cylinder includes UN pressure recep-tacles. In addition to the definitions contained in 171.8 of this subchapter, the fol

33、lowing definitions apply to this subpart: Commercially free of corrosive compo-nents means a hazardous material hav-ing a dew point at or below minus 46.7 C (minus 52 F) at 101kPa (1 atmos-phere) and free of components that will adversely react with the cylinder (e.g. chemical stress corrosion). Con

34、demn means a determination that a cylinder is unserviceable for the con-tinued transportation of hazardous ma-terials in commerce and that the cyl-inder may not be restored by repair, re-building, requalification, or any other procedure. Defect means an imperfection requir-ing removal of a cylinder

35、from service. Elastic expansion means a temporary increase in a cylinders volume, due to application of pressure, that is lost when pressure is released (elastic ex-pansion = total expansion minus per-manent expansion). Filled or charged means an introduc-tion or presence of a hazardous mate-rial in

36、 a cylinder. Non-corrosive service means a haz-ardous material that, in the presence of moisture, is not corrosive to the ma-terials of construction of a cylinder (including valve, pressure relief device, etc.). Over-heated means a condition in which the temperature of any portion of an aluminum cyl

37、inder has reached 176 C (350 F) or higher, or in which the temperature of any portion of a steel or nickel cylinder has reached 343 C (650 F) or higher. Permanent expansion means a perma-nent increase in a cylinders volume after the test pressure is released. Proof pressure test means a pressure tes

38、t by interior pressurization without the determination of a cylinders ex-pansion. Rebuild means the replacement of a pressure part (e.g. a wall, head, or pres-sure fitting) by welding. Rejected cylinder means a cylinder that cannot be used for the transpor-tation of a hazardous material in com-merce

39、 without repair, rebuilding, and requalification. Repair means a procedure for correc-tion of a rejected cylinder that may in-volve welding. Requalification means the completion of a visual inspection and/or the test(s) required to be performed on a cylinder to determine its suitability for contin-u

40、ed service. Requalification identification number or RIN means a code assigned by DOT to uniquely identify a cylinder requali-fication, repair, or rebuilding facility. Test pressure means the pressure used for the requalification of a cylinder. Total expansion means the total in-crease in a cylinder

41、s volume due to ap-plication of the test pressure. Visual inspection means an internal or external visual examination, or both, performed as part of the cylinder re-qualification process. Volumetric expansion test means a pressure test to determine the total and permanent expansion of a cylinder at

42、a given pressure. The volumetric ex-pansion test is conducted using the water jacket or direct expansion meth-ods: (1) Water jacket method means a volu-metric expansion test to determine a VerDate Mar2010 15:30 Dec 30, 2010 Jkt 220213 PO 00000 Frm 01137 Fmt 8010 Sfmt 8010 Q:49X49220213.XXX ofr150 Ps

44、 the volume of water the cylinder externally displaces at ambient pres-sure. (2) Direct expansion method means a volumetric expansion test to calculate a cylinders total and permanent ex-pansion by measuring the amount of water forced into a cylinder at test pressure, adjusted for the compress-ibili

45、ty of water, as a means of deter-mining the expansion. 67 FR 51660, Aug. 8, 2002, as amended at 71 FR 33894, June 12, 2006 180.205 General requirements for re-qualification of specification cyl-inders. (a) General. Each cylinder used for the transportation of hazardous mate-rials must be an authoriz

46、ed packaging. To qualify as an authorized packaging, each cylinder must conform to this subpart, the applicable requirements specified in part 173 of this subchapter, and the applicable requirements of sub-part C of part 178 of this subchapter. (b) Persons performing requalification functions. No pe

47、rson may represent that a repair or requalification of a cylinder has been performed in accord-ance with the requirements in this sub-chapter unless that person holds a cur-rent approval issued under the proce-dural requirements prescribed in sub-part I of part 107 of this chapter. No person may mar

48、k a cylinder with a RIN and a requalification date or oth-erwise represent that a DOT specifica-tion or special permit cylinder has been requalified unless all applicable requirements of this subpart have been met. A person who requalifies cylinders must maintain the records prescribed in 180.215 at

49、 each location at which it inspects, tests, or marks cylinders. (c) Periodic requalification of cylinders. Each cylinder bearing a DOT specifica-tion marking must be requalified and marked as specified in the Requalifica-tion Table in this subpart. Each cyl-inder bearing a DOT special permit number must be requalified and marked in conformance with this sec-tion and the terms of the app
