14、 Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Fran

BS EN 1626:2008EN 1626:2008 (E) 4 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the requireme

16、nts for the design, manufacture and testing of valves for cryogenic service, i.e. for operation with cryogenic fluids below - 10 C as well as at ambient conditions to allow for start-up and run-down. It specifies additional requirements for cryogenic service for the appropriate valve product standar

17、d. NOTE a cryogenic fluid (refrigerated liquefied gas) is a gas which is partially liquid because of its low temperature (including totally evaporated liquids and supercritical fluids). It applies to sizes up to DN 150 including vacuum jacketed cryogenic valves. This European Standard is not applica

18、ble to safety valves and valves for liquefied natural gas (LNG). It is intended that the valve be designed and tested to satisfy a pressure rating (PN or Class). Valves may then be selected with a PN or Class equal to or greater than the maximum allowable pressure (PS) of the equipment with which it

19、 is to be used. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies.

27、759-1 3.3 specified minimum temperature lowest temperature the valve is specified for 3.4 valve category A valves intended to be operated with normal frequency (above 20 cycles a year) 3.5 valve category B valves intended to be operated only occasionally i.e. with a frequency below 20 cycles a year

28、4 Requirements 4.1 Materials 4.1.1 Metallic materials Metallic materials to be used in the construction of cryogenic valves shall be suitable for general valve uses as defined in EN 12516-1, EN 12516-2 and EN 12516-4. In addition, the following requirements apply: 4.1.1.1 Toughness requirements Mate

29、rials which exhibit a ductile/brittle transition shall have minimum impact test values specified in EN 1252-1. These requirements apply only to the critical parts of the valve exposed to cryogenic temperatures (and not to control elements for example). Non ferrous materials which can be shown to hav

30、e no ductile/brittle transition do not require additional impact tests. 4.1.1.2 Corrosion resistance Materials shall be resistant to or protected from normal atmospheric corrosion and to the medium handled. 4.1.1.3 Oxygen compatibility If the specified minimum temperature is equal to or below the bo

31、iling point of air (approximately 190 C at atmospheric pressure) or the valve is intended for oxygen service the materials which are, or likely to be, in contact with oxygen or an oxygen enriched air shall be oxygen compatible in accordance with EN 1797. 4.1.1.4 Flammable gas compatibility For hydro

32、gen service, see EN 1797. BS EN 1626:2008EN 1626:2008 (E) 6 Copper alloys less than 70 % of copper shall be used for fluids containing acetylene. 4.1.2 Non metallic materials Non metallic materials to be used in packing, seats and glands shall: - have mechanical properties which will allow the valve

33、s to pass the sample valve test for category A valves as defined in this standard (see 5.2); - be oxygen compatible, if applicable, see 4.1.1.3. If non metallic materials are used for structural parts, their suitability shall be proven. 4.2 Design 4.2.1 General The valves shall fulfil their function

34、 in a safe manner within the temperature range from + 65 C to their specified minimum temperature and the pressure range intended for use. 4.2.2 Packing gland Valves can have an extended stem. The length of the extension shall be sufficient to maintain the stem packing at a temperature high enough t

35、o permit operation within the normal temperature range of the packing material. Valves without an extended stem shall have a stem packing capable of operating at the specified minimum temperature. The handle shall be designed to remain operable for the duration of the sample valve test in accordance

36、 with 5.2.3.2. Gland designs incorporating a gland nut with a male or female thread shall be such that the nut shall not unscrew unintentionally, for example when the valve is operated. 4.2.3 Operating positions Valves with an extended stem shall be capable of operation with the valve stem at any po

37、sition from the vertical to 25 above the horizontal. 4.2.4 Trapped liquid Cavities where liquid can be trapped and build up detrimental pressures due to evaporation or expansion of the liquid during warming up of the valve are not permitted. NOTE For ball and gate valves this requirement can be met

38、by the provision of a pressure relief hole or passage or other means, e.g. pressure relieving seats, to relieve pressure in the bonnet and body cavities to the upstream side of the valve. 4.2.5 Valve bonnet Valve bonnets may be brazed, welded, bolted, screwed or union type. Union type bonnets shall

39、not be used on valves greater than DN 50. Union nuts shall be locked to the body. Screwed bonnets shall also be secured by a union nut or another device offering equivalent safety. 4.2.6 Securing of gland extension For bronze or copper alloy valves of PN 100 or greater, the gland extensions shall be

40、 mechanically secured in the bonnet prior to brazing. (For instance by screwing). BS EN 1626:2008EN 1626:2008 (E) 7 4.2.7 Seat (seating assembly) Valves may have metal/metal or metal/soft or soft/soft seating assembly. Soft seat materials shall be adequately supported to prevent cold flow of the sea

41、t material or shall be backed by a secondary metal seat. 4.2.8 Blow-off safety of the spindle The valve stem/shaft shall be secured so that it cannot be blown out of the body in the event of the gland being removed while the valve is under pressure. 4.2.9 Torque The maximum torque to operate manual

42、valves under service conditions, when applied at the rim of the hand wheel or lever, shall not exceed 350 x R N.m, except for valve seating and unseating, when it shall not exceed 500 x R Nm. For a hand-wheel, R is the radius of the wheel in meters. For a lever R is the length of the lever in meters

43、 minus 0,05 m. The valve shall be robust enough to withstand 1000 R N.m or equivalent in linear force as specified above without damage. A lower value is permitted if there is a limiting torque or stroke device. Stems/shafts torsional strength within the pressure boundary shall be designed to exceed

44、 the torsional strength of the stem/shaft to the packing by at least 10 %. Valves intended for actuator operation may have torque or linear force requirements deviating from the above. The sample valve tests shall then be performed including a proper actuator to operate the valve. 4.2.10 Electrical

45、continuity and explosion proofness All valves shall have a maximum electrical resistance of 1000 in order to ensure electrical continuity to prevent build-up of static electricity. For flammable fluids, any equipment attached to or associated with a valve shall be suitable for the hazard zone. 5 Tes

46、ting 5.1 Production tests The production test shall be performed in accordance with the requirements of applicable valve product standards. If these standards refer to EN 12266-1 and EN 12266-2, closure test leakage rate A is required. 5.2 Type testing 5.2.1 Selection of sample valves One sample val

47、ve shall be tested. It shall be representative of the valves to be produced. If a range of valves of identical design but with different size is to be tested, one sample of the smallest and one sample of the largest shall be tested. 5.2.2 Verification of the design A second sample valve shall be ins

48、pected to ensure that the design satisfies the requirements of Clause 4. 5.2.3 Ambient condition tests 5.2.3.1 Initial tests The sample valve shall first pass the tests as described in 5.1. BS EN 1626:2008EN 1626:2008 (E) 8 5.2.3.2 Strength test The valve in a partially open position shall be hydrau

49、lically tested for at least 1 min with a pressure 4 times PN (or the maximum rated pressure) for valves with a PN lower than PN 100 (or Class lower than Class 600) and 2,25 times for higher pressure ratings. Leakage at joint level shall be accepted but failure by bursting or leakage through the body is unacceptable. Certain components (e.g. membranes or bellow seals) may be temporarily removed or replaced by a dummy during this test. The strength test shall be performed after all other tests or on separate samples. The purpose of this test is to ve
