ANDERSON GREENWOOD TANK BLANKETING REGULATORS

THE NEED FOR EFFECTIVE TANK BLANKETING OR PADDING Pad valves

Blanketing is a process used to maintain a gas blanket or pad in the vapor space of a pressure- BV-1 (flanged)
tight liquid storage vessel.

It normally involves the use of a valve or regulator to control the input of the pad gas, usually an
inert gas such as nitrogen. When the pressure drops in the tank, the pad or blanketing valve will
open and feed gas and pressure into the vessel, limiting the minimum pressure in the tank. This
drop in pressure is normally caused by pump out or thermal cooling. In the event of pressure rise
in the tank due to heat input or pump in, the de-pad or vent valve will open and vent pressure or
pad gas from the tank.

Traditionally, this function was performed by a conservation vent or breather valve.

Today, because of the need to collect the gas coming off the top of the tank and prevent the Type Y1
pressure from increasing to a point where the vent valves will leak to atmosphere, a de-pad valve
is set to open at a point below the vent valves. Because this valve normally discharges to a closed
system, it must be balanced against back pressure.

THE COMPLETE SYSTEM

Because of the interactions between pad (blanketing) valves, de-pad (out breathing) valves, relief
devices and flame arresters, each piece of equipment should be considered when specifying the
blanketing system and it makes sense to rely on one company to help specify and provide all of
the products.
Type RA
The Tank Blanketing System combines the use of a pilot operated blanketing valve and a pilot
operated de-pad valve to provide a simple, reliable and accurate solution.
By using a modulating de-pad or vent valve, you can eliminate the need for traditional weight
loaded, unbalanced vent valves, reducing project and maintenance costs, conserving blanket gas
and further protecting the environment.

Installation flexibility
Depending on your systems needs, the Tank Blanketing System has the flexibility to be installed
so that the pad valve, de-pad valve and vacuum breaker can be installed on a single nozzle De-pad valves
(Figure 1) or multiple nozzles (Figure 2).
Type 93
Internal sensing can also be provided in the same tank connection.

SINGLE VALVE SOLUTION

The conventional method (Figure 1) employs as many as four regulators to reduce high supply
pressure to low blanket pressures, while the Anderson Greenwood system (Figure 2) requires
only one unit to achieve the necessary reduction.

The Type Y1 pilot is used with the main valve to form a pressure reducing valve capable of
regulating tank pressures from ½” wc to 6 psig (1.2 mbarg to 0.41 barg).

Type RA direct spring operation

For small flow requirements, the pilot alone can be used as a direct spring tank blanketing
valve. The only difference in construction is the location of the sense and inlet ports. The sensed
pressure acting against the spring force will determine if the pilot is to open and by how much.

Type Y1 Y-style operation

Upstream pressure enters the main body and acts upward against the main valve diaphragm.
Due to a small unbalanced dome area, the effective area above the diaphragm is slightly larger
than below. Shut-off will occur when the dome pressure is equal to the inlet pressure. The sleeve/
diaphragm retainer assembly is lightly spring loaded to provide initial closing force when there is
no pressure differential across the diaphragm.

The Type Y1 pilot controls dome pressure in response to tank pressure. A reduction in dome
pressure allows the sleeve to move upward off the main seat, permitting flow through the valve.
The amount of lift depends on the pressure reduction in the dome: the greater this reduction, the
greater the flow.

When the downstream pressure is satisfied, the sensed pressure acting on the pilot sense plate
will overcome the spring force to close the pilot, which in turn closes the valve. No system fluid is
vented to the atmosphere.

Type BV-1 right-angle style operation

The diaphragm and sleeve are replaced by a piston in the main valve for more rugged
construction. As with the Y1 valve, the pilot controls dome pressure. A reduction in dome pressure
allows the piston to move horizontally off the seat, permitting flow through the valve. Maximum
flow is controlled by the cage orifices.

PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS

Set pressure is defined as the point at which the valve begins to flow. As the demand for flow
increases, the tank pressure must drop in order for the valve to respond, since a differential
pressure is required to create the necessary forces to operate the valve.

This drop in tank pressure is called ‘droop’. When the valve is 100% open, the tank pressure must
increase for the valve to respond and close.

The difference between start to open and close is called ‘deadband’. For the Type Y1 blanketing
valve, this deadband is 1” wc (2.5 mbarg) at the lowest set pressure. For the Type BV-1 blanketing
valve, it is ¾” wc (1.9 mbarg). Lockup, the rise above set pressure for total closure, is less than
0.1” wc (0.25 mbarg).

Elastomer selection
For diaphragms, seats and seals, it is important to specify an elastomer that is compatible with
both the supply gas and the product being stored in the tank, as vapors will enter the valve from
the discharge port and sense line. The RA and Y1 valves come with NBR soft goods as standard.
The BV1 comes standard with Fluorosilicone and FKM seat and seals and a PTFE diaphragm. It is
available with an internal purge which sweeps a small flow rate of blanket gas back through the
sense port and tank connection.

NACE trim
Pilot and main valve trims are available for sour gas service in accordance with the latest edition
of NACE MR0175.

GOX/LOX
The BV-1 model can be cleaned for GOX and LOX applications.

the basis that both conditions could occur
simultaneously.

To size a blanketing valve

1. Determine the gas flow rate due to pump-out (from Table A).
2. Determine the gas flow rate due to atmospheric thermal cooling (from Table B).
3. Add the requirements of 1 and 2 and select valve size based on air capacity (from Table C).

Excerpt from API 20001

For tanks with a capacity of 20 000 bbl or more, the requirements for the vacuum condition are
very close to the theoretically computed value of 2 SCFH of air, per square foot of total shell and
roof area.
For tanks with a capacity of less than 20 000 bbl, the requirements for the vacuum condition have
been based on 1 SCFH of air for each barrel of tank capacity. Substantially, this is equivalent to a
100°F (38°C) per hour mean rate of vapor space temperature change (see Table B).
