14、illed Thermal Systems of Remote Sensing Temperature Regulators 1. SCOPE AND PURPOSE 1.1 This standard applies to filled thermal systems of remote sensing temperature regulators. 1.2 The purpose of this standard is to establish uniform terminology and definition for filled thermal systems of remote s

15、ensing temperature regulators. 2. TERMINOLOGY AND DEFINITIONS 2.1 Filled Thermal Systems for Remote Sensing Temperature Regulators: A filled thermal system for remote sensing temperature regulators is a closed system containing a fluid fill (the temperature sensing medium) and comprising a bulb, an

16、expansion device (bellows, diaphragm, capsule, etc.) and a capillary tube operatively connecting the two (See Fig. 1). The following classes of thermal systems are in general use. 2.1.1 Liquid Filled Thermal Systems: A liquid filled thermal system (Class I) is a thermal system completely filled with

17、 a liquid and operating on the principle of liquid expansion. 2.1.2 Vapor Pressure Thermal System: A vapor pressure thermal system (Class II) is a thermal system partially filled with a volatile liquid and operating on the principle of vapor pressure. Three types are employed. a. Designed to operate

18、 with the measured temperature ABOVE the temperature of the rest of the thermal system (Class II A) (See Fig. 2). b. Designed to operate with the measured temperature BELOW the temperature of the rest of the thermal system (Class II B) (See Fig. 3). c. Designed to operate with the measured temperatu

19、re above and below the temperature of the rest of the thermal system (Class II C). This type normally requires a larger sensitive portion than Class II A or II B (See Fig. 4). 2.2 Bulb: A bulb is the sensing means of a thermal system comprising a sensitive portion and quite often a connector. Two co

20、mmonly used types are the plain bulb and the union connected bulb. 2.2.1 Bulb Diameter: The bulb diameter is the outside diameter of the sensitive portion. (See Figs. 5 and 6). 2.2.2 Bulb Length: The bulb length of a plain bulb is the overall length. The bulb length of a union connected bulb is the

21、length from the free end of the bulb to the underside of the seating part. (See Figs. 5 and 6). 2.2.3 Bulb Sensitive Portion: The bulb portion is that portion of the bulb enclosing the fluid fill intended to sense temperature (See Fig. 7). 2.2.4 Bulb Immersion Length - The bulb immersion length is t

22、he length from the free end of the bulb to the point of immersion in the medium, the temperature of which is being sensed (See Fig. 7). The bulb immersion length must equal or exceed the bulb sensitive portion. 2.2.5 Bulb Insertion Length - The insertion length is the length from the free end of the

23、 bulb to, but not including, the external threads or other means of attachment to a vessel (see Figs. 7 and 8). 2.2.6 Bulb Extension - An extension is that portion of a bulb which extends between the sensitive portion and the connector. This extension length is usually defined and will vary with the

24、 application (See Fig. 7). 2.2.6.1 Bendable Extension - A bendable extension is an extension designed to be bent at the time of installation. 2.2.6.2 Rigid Extension - A rigid extension is an extension not designed to be bent at the time of installation. 2.2.7 Bulb Extension Length - The extension l

25、ength is the length from the sensitive portion of the bulb to the connector. (See Fig. 7). 12.3 Plain Bulb - A plain bulb is a bulb not provided with a union connection or other means for attachment to a vessel. (See Fig. 5). 2.4 Union Connected Bulb - A union connected bulb is a bulb provided with

26、a pressure-tight union connection for installation (See Fig. 6). 2.4.1 Union Connected Bulb Assembly - A union connected bulb assembly is a union connected bulb and means, such as a bushing, flange, or well, for pressure-tight attachment to a vessel (See Fig. 8). 2.5 Coated Bulb - A coated bulb is a

27、 bulb coated with a corrosion resistant material not affected by the media in which it is to be immersed. 2.6 Sanitary Bulb - A sanitary bulb is a bulb for use where sanitary requirements must be met, designed to prevent introducing or retention of foreign matter and to facilitate cleaning. 2.7 Capi

28、llary - The capillary is a tubing, normally flexible and connects the bulb to the expansion device in the actuator. The energy of the fluid fill is transmitted through the capillary tubing to the expansion device with in turn positions the valve plug. 2.8 Armor - The armor is a heavy interlocked spi

29、ral metal which protects the capillary. 2.9 Union Connection - A union connection is that portion of a union connected bulb which comprises a seating part either rigidly attached to or adjustable along the extension and jam nut for attachment to a bushing, flange or well (See Fig. 6). 2.10 Bushing -

30、 A bushing is a fitting provided with external threads for pressure-tight attachment to a vessel and with internal threads or other seating means for mounting a union connected bulb (See Fig. 8). 2.11 Well - A well is a pressure-tight receptacle adapted to receive a union connected bulb and provided

31、 with external threads or other means for pressure-tight attachment to a vessel (See Fig. 8). 2.11.1 Well Length - A well length is the length of the bulb plus 1/4“. This is an inside measurement form the bottom of the bulb seat to the end of the well. 2.11.2 Lagging Extension - A lagging extension

32、is that portion of a bushing or well, above the external threads, intended to extend through the lagging (insulation) of a vessel or pipe (See Fig. 8). 2.11.3 Lagging Extension Length - The lagging extension length is the length from the lower end of the external threads of a bushing or well to the

33、upper end of the portion intended to extend through the lagging of a vessel, less one inch allowance for threads (See Fig. 8). NOTE: For purposes of uniform dimensioning, the allowance for thread length is one inch, regardless of pipe thread size. 2.12 External Threads For Bushings Or Well - Externa

34、l threads for bushings or wells shall be American Standard Taper Pipe Threads (NPT) of the American National Standards Institute. 2.13 Flange - A flange is a fitting provided with a flanged surface for attaching to a vessel and unless integrally fastened to the bulb by welding or seal brazing, shall

35、 have internal threads or other sealing means for mounting a union connected bulb. The flange dimensions shall conform to the appropriate ANSI Standard for the specified material. 3.
