KRUPP UHDE STANDARD January 2001 Piping Krupp Uhde UN PIPELINE SPACING 3002-08 Centre-to-centre distances for steel piping according to DIN Part1 Rohrieitungen; Rohrieitungsabstande; Mittenabstande for Stahlrohrieitungen nach DIN ‘Supersedes 97-02 1 Scope This Krupp Uhde standard applies to the engineering of piping systems. The dimensions indicated below are the centre-to-centre distances of adjacent stee! pipelines or piping systems with offset flanges, plus the minimum Gistance of 25 mm from the external edge of the pipe to the flange or insulation parameter (see Figure 1). Said dimensions have been rounded to obtain 5 mm steps. When the centre-to-centre distances of insulated steel piping are calculated, itis imperative to allow for the respective insulation thickness of the two adjacent pipelines. For centre-to-centre distances inclusive of the respective pipe supports, refer to Table 2 Figure 1. Table 1.

Pipelines are understood to mean above-ground pipes installed in chemical and other industrial plants for piping liquid or gaseous fluids at low or high temperatures. ‘The individual components of the supports or fixtures comply with the types contained in the applicable DIN ‘standards and they have been integrated into the pipe support systems and sub-assemblies defined in said Unde ‘standards on the basis of DIN materials. These standards do not apply to nuclear power station nor to plants ‘equipped with pipe supports according to ANSI or ASTM standards. 2 Definitions 2.4 Pipe supports Pipe supports within the meaning of said Uhde standards are devices required for fixing and guiding the pipelines properly. They must be capable of transferring the forces built up during plant operation from the pipeline to the structure. Pipe supports may also comprise pre-fabricated components to be integrated into the assembly, for instance, cold pipe supports, spring elements, mechanical snubbers, etc. 2.2 Attachment to the building structures ‘The attachment of the pipe support to the structure (point of attachment) is required to transmit the forces. The types of attachment listed below are admissible: ‘© clamped to the steel structure welded to the steel structure bolted to the steel structure plugged into the concrete structure 23 Friction bearings Friction bearings are pipe supports each equipped with a component embracing the pipe and rated for the direct transfer of forces such as vertical, lateral or axial loads from the pipe to the building structure. 24 Hangers In view of their design, hangers are only suited for vertical loads but neither for fixed points nor guide assemblies. 2.5 Tubular supports Tubular supports are designed to absorb vertical loads and, to some extent, also axial or lateral loads. When installed in front of pumps or machine sets, the tubular supports shall have adjustable top-end plates. The tubular type of support shall only be used for heights up to a max. value to be specified 26 Brackets Brackets are supporting assemblies of sectional steel which are to be attached to structures such as frames, walls, vessels, etc. 2.7 __ Special supports and combined support assemblies ‘Special supports shall be used if standard supports are inadequate or not fully suited to meet the structural or design requirements. This special type of support consists of one or several sub-assemblies, including the related sub-assemblies or additional components, if any ‘A-combined support assembly comprises several sub-assemblies assigned to different functions. 28 — Sub-assembly Each sub-assembly is a complete pipe support which consists of one or several components. It is necessary {0 distinguish sub-assemblies for their function and/or attachment to the structure from those which do not necessitate such extra assemblies. 29 Related sub-assembly ‘These sub-assemblies consist of several components and serve for completion of a pipe support or for a function and/or attachment to a structure as mentioned in section 2.8. 2.40 Components ‘Several components form a sub-assembly. GEES UN 3785-01 Part 1 Page 3 2.11 Function ‘The function is crucial for the design and type of sub-assembly or pipe support. The function and the attachment of the support to the structure form the basis for allowable load rating. ‘This standard contains the following function-related terms: * loose point code letter A. © longitudinal guide code letter B © fixed point code letter C © [oad transfer (no defined function) code letter X 2.41.4 Loose point A loose point is understood to mean a pipeline section that is freely supported by a structure. This also applies to piping mounted by means of pipe supports that are not attached to a structure. 2.41.2. Longitudinal guide Longitudinal guide refers to a pipe support suitable for absorbing transversal forces occurring during operation ‘and for guiding expansions towards the centre of the piping. It prevents pipeline distortion as a result of temperature variations, 241.3. Fixed point ‘A fixed pointis.a support suitable for safe absorption ofthe forces and loads acting onthe piping during operation and for their transfer to the building structure. 2.11.4 Load transfer (no defined function) Pipe supports which fal short ofthe functions defined in 2.11.1 to 2.11.3 (for instance, horizontal pipe shoes) are only required for absorbing the load resulting from the weight ofthe pipe and its inventory. 2.12 Guide pads and clamps ‘These guide pads and clamps are part of the sub-assemblies mentioned in 2.9 and shoes etc. laterally or axially. ble for fixing the pipe 243 Fixing plates ‘These guide pads and clamps are part of the sub-assemblies mentioned in 2.9 and suitable for attaching hangers, supports and brackets to the building or supporting structure. 2.14 Part number, designation and description ‘The part number used in this standard is the essential information for identifying the sub-assembly, the related parts list or workshop drawing. As a rule, it consists of two letters for the sub-assembly, a letter designating the pipe support function, a three-digit serial or combined number which is also used for denoting different materials, and a suffix letter identifying the national standard, for instance D for DIN. ‘The part number of an individual component normally consists of two letters representing the component-related ‘symbol, a four-digit serial number for different types and, inter alia, for material classification, including a letter identifying the national standard, ‘The part number, however, is not indicative of size or dimension which must be added to the part number. For ‘summary of sub-assemblies and component-related symbols see section 8. The part designation corresponds to the order designation and serves to identify the type (type of pipe support) or other features such as the relevant standard or material. ‘The part description contains data essential for the sub-assembly or component and complies with the data in the workshop drawing. 215 Materials ‘The material data contained in this standard are the basis for stress analysis and rating of pipe supports and, ‘consequently, for the allowable loads indicated. Material data included in the component designation are always related to the part of sub-assembly coming into contact with the pipeline. See table 2 for critical materials. 246 Workshop drawings ‘These drawings contain all data required to manufacture a pipe support or sub-assembly of a certain DN or size, i.e. the respective support is shown and furnished with the relevant parts Page 4 UN 3785-01 Part 1 eS 2.17 Functional drawings This drawing shows the complete pipe support sub-assembly, including the related sub-assemblies if any. 2.48 Nominal diameter (DN) and characteristic dimensions The nominal diameter (DN) is a dimension which is characteristic of all mating components of a piping system according to DIN 2402. The DN within the meaning of this standard applies to all pipe supports completely embracing the pipe, for instance friction bearings, hangers and tubular supports. Ifthe DNs insufficient to designate the components or sub-assemblies, additional characteristic dimensions shall be indicated, for instance the code for the beam width of a stee! structure and the insulation thickness. 2.19 Dimensions The dimensions are specified in Volume 1 of these standards and permit adequate sizing of pipe supports. 2.20 Design dimensions and weights The design dimensions contained in Volume 2 permit precise sizing of pipe supports and preparation of workshop drawings. The weights indicated are total weights of individual sub-assemblies, the related sub-assemblies not being included. 2.21 Allowable loads The allowable loads specified in Volume 3 of these standards refer to a complete pipe support that forms a ‘sub-assembly, incl. elated sub-assemblies if any. Individual forces acting in the X-, Y-, Z- directions or combined forces are specified. 3 Design criteria The following design criteria are based on the experience gathered by Unde in the design and construction of ‘many chemical and industrial plants. Therefore, these criteria are to be understood as recommendations which, depending on a specific contract, can be put into practice 3.1 General Pipelines of < DN 50 shall be fixed on site in line with this standard unless the piping diagrams or isometric drawings contain data on pipe supports. ‘The data contained in the contract-specific specification "Pipe supports" on the spacing of the pipe supports shall bbe observed and the requirements outlined in the technical rules, such as the pressure vessel code, TRR, etc. shall be met. ‘See Unde standard UN 3785-01, part 2, for the typical spacing of pipe supports. ‘The following reference values apply to the spacing of pipe supports for metal piping: * 15to 25 mfors DN 150, #200 30 m for DN 200 ‘See DVS recommendation 2210, part 1, for the spacing of pipe supports for thermoplastic piping. ‘The spacing of the pipe supports for thermosetting plastic piping (GRP) shall be determined according to KRV recommendation “Engineering and design specifications for GRP piping’. {f there is no other possibilty of attaching small pipelines, same shall be attached to large pipelines. Itis practical to route small pipelines beside large ones or several small pipelines between two large ones unless their thermal expansion differs under operating conditions. aly, ain Figure 1. Attachment of small pipelines to large pipelines Ss UN 3785-01 Part 1 Page 5 Adjustable pipe supports shall be provided for pipelines which have to be laid or connected without tension (e.g. ‘on machinery). Detachable pipeline sections (e.9. on pumps, compressors) shall be attached in such a manner that there is no need for temporary support of the stationary section of the pipeline. Roller or PTFE bearings shall be provided for pipelines which may cause loads of > 50 KN to the pipe support ‘and movement under operating conditions. ‘A cold pipe support shall be provided at every supporting point of cold-insulated pipelines. Metal accessories (¢.9. valves, gate valves) of plastic piping shall be supported at the flanges by valve supports, according to Unde standard UN 3786-20. ‘Supports are not required: ‘* fornozzies arranged vertically ether in the upward or downward direction, with shut-off valve (e.g. vent, drain, pressure gauge nozzle) < DN 50, ifthe main pipe is > DN 100, * ifthe accessories can be attached directly to the pipeline, * ifthe weight ofthe accessories is low (e.. light-metal valves) 3.1.1 Friction bearings and guides When determining the position of guides, care shall be taken to prevent the movabilty of the expansion joints {rom being adversely affected. Inthe case of U-bolts, the distance between the first guide and the U-bolt shall be at least equal to the length of the U-bolt leg, ‘The forces acting at the fixed points shall be taken into account for the design of the building or supporting structures. By the installation of expansion joints, mechanical snubbers, spring hangers, spring supports or by extending the outgoing pipe legs and branches, the piping system located between the fixed points shall be rendered flexible to prevent the admissible stresses from being exceeded. Uninsulated stee! pipelines of < DN 500 with wall thicknesses of > normal wall thickness may be laid directly on the building or supporting structure. A pipe saddle shall be provided within the area of support for pipelines of DN 500. Pipe shoes shall be provided within the area of support for stee! piping with wall thicknesses of < normal wall thickness, heatinsulated pipelines, pipelines of special metals, and for pipelines of plastics. The supporting surface for the pipe shoes must be sufficiently large so as to prevent the pipe shoes from sliding off the building ‘or supporting structure (e.g. due to thermal expansion). The pipe shoes are suitable for a movement of up to max. 150 mm. For a larger expansion, the length of the pipe shoes shall be increased accordingly. Riser pipe clamps shall be used for guiding or fixing vertical pipelines. In the case of low loads (e.g. gas-bearing Pipelines), pipe clamps with extended legs shall be used. The forces are transferred via lugs which are welded to the pipe. Riser pipe clamps of steel plate, which are welded to the structure, may be used for uninsulated Pipelines of > DN 100 with wall thicknesses of > normal wall thickness, if great forces have to be transferred, 3.4.2 Hangers Pipe hangers comprise an upper attachment, where the load is transferred to the building structure, a hanger rod and a lower attachment where the load is transferred from the pipeline. The upper attachment isthe link between hanger and building structure. The type of attachment depends on the location of the pipeline and on the existing building structure. ‘The lower attachment isthe link between pipeline and hanger rod. The type of clamp depends on the load to be carried. Broad clamps shall be provided for plastic pipelines. Preference shall be given to hangers without turnbuckle. This particularly applies when the hanger rod has to be adapted and welded on site. Spring hangers carry the weight of the pipeline and simultaneously permit movement of the pipeline. The spring size is determined by the service load and selected from the manufacturer's tables and according to his recommendations. When determining the spring travel, inaccuracies occurring during erection and additional movements (e.g. due to temperature variations) shall be taken into account. Unde standard UN 3787-06 "Design Of spring elements" shall be observed, Page 6 UN 3785-01 Part 1 GEES 3.1.3 Tubular supports ‘Tubular supports consist of a pipe section and an insert pipe. This design permits in-situ adaptation of the support to local conditions. After adaptation, the pipe section and the insert pipe are joined by welding. These supports are permitted for heights up to max. 1800 mm. If horizontal forces and forces that tend to lft the pipe (e.g. due to temperature variations) are to be expected, the tubular supports shall be adequately attached to the building structure. Adjustable supports shall only be used if the pipeline has to be readjusted during operation. 3.4.4 Brackets Brackets, welded, clamped or bolted to ste! structures or plugged into concrete walls, shall be used if attachment by means of hangers is not possible or not practical Brackets on vessels and equipment bear the pipe loads and transfer same to the vessel wall. See Uhde standard practice UA 2000-13, Part 1, and Uhde standard UN 2000-06, Part 3, for the allowable load on the vessel walls and for the fixing plates that might be required as a reinforcement of the vessel walls. Brackets may also be used for guiding a pipeline in a certain position. Unde standard UN 3785-01, Part 2, applies to the spacing of brackets for riser piping on vessels and equipment. 3.2 Attachment of the pipe supports to the pipe Pipe supports designed according to these standards shall be detachable with the exception of lugs, which have to be welded to the pipe in the case of fixed points or riser pipe clamps, and the saddle plates used as friction bearings, Further data are contained in Table 1.

The following fixing elements may be used: ‘© Steel plugs (expansion bolts), '* adhesive cartridge anchors (depending on permit conditions), '* anchor plates of steel, embedded in concrete and on which welding is permitted, ‘* Sectional steel bars to be embedded in concrete and provided for bolting the individual components of pipe supports, anchor bolts, * damping devices. jure] UN 3785-01 Part 1 Page 7 Steel plugs are suitable for attaching pipe supports to supporting structures, walls, joists and ceilings. Anchor plates and sectional steel bars are suitable for supporting structures, walls, joists and ceilings. Clamping devices may only be used on supporting structures if steel plugs are not permitted and anchor plates and sectional steel bars are not available. The spacing of anchor plates and sectional steel bars shall be approx. 1 m (grid arrangement) iftheir exact position cannot be determined. The exact point of attachment can be determined on site by stee! beams which are welded or bolted between the anchor plates or sectional steel bars. When using anchor plates or sectional steel bars, the following shall be observed: * Anchor plates provide less flexibility for determining the exact point of attachment. ‘© Normally, anchor plates are capable of transferring greater forces. © Sectional steel bars provide greater flexibilty for determining the exact point of attachment. x .

Special care is re- quired for blinds and spacers with groove or female joint. Blinds and spacers with tongue or male joint shall not be used because their external edges are susceptible to damage and because itis dificult to install them 9. oF to remove them from existing pipelines. Tongue flanges shall also be avoided because it is not possible to machine the tongue when the flange has been installed. In such a case, itis only possible to install inter- mediate rings.

Equipment of other materials may remain in the system to be cleaned, if approved by the site management. Valves which are susceptible to impurities shall be removed. Valves which remain in place shall be opened. Orifice plates, strainers, check valves and similar items which prevent proper cleaning of a system or com- plete discharge of the (liquid) cleaning agent shall be removed. Removed items shall be replaced by dummy pieces. 22 — Cleaning agents ‘The cleaning agents shall be selected taking into consideration the testing agents specified for the pressure ‘and leakage testing and the process fluids. The symbols ofthe cleaning agents conform to those of the testing agents according to section 4.2. 22.4 Liquid cleaning agents Piping of unalloyed and low-alloy stee! shall only be cleaned with water (WSDA) with a chi $200 ppm. ion content of Piping of austenitic CrNi steel, nickel and nickel alloys shall only be cleaned with water (WSD, WS) with a chloride ion content of < 50 ppm. Drinking water with a chloride ion content of < 200 ppm mixed with 2% (by volume) sodium carbonate may be used instead of WSD or WDS, Piping with linings (rubber lining or cement lining) and plastic piping should be cleaned with WSDA. Water with a chloride ion content of > 1000 ppm (e.g. brackish water or sea water) may also be used, if approved by the site management. ‘Apart from water, other liquids may be used for cleaning. The use of these liquids shall be based on process. aspects, Only liquids shall be used which do not leave any harmful residues in the system and which are ‘compatible with the process fluid. A gaseous cleaning agent (AIDR, NH or NL if possible) should be used in case of doubt. Krupp Uhde Page 3 UN 9253-21 Part 1 : 2002-03, Pickling shall be performed according to UN 9253-11 "Pickling of alloyed and low-alloy steel” or according to the instructions of the equipment manufacturers. 2.2.2 Gaseous cleaning agents For piping of unalloyed, low-alloy and high-alloyed steel, air or inert gas may be used for cleaning. Cleaning agents Al, AIDR, NH, and NL shall be selected on the basis of the permissible moisture content in the cleaned piping, For blowing out the pipelines with steam, saturated steam (STS) should be used. If process equipment re- mains in the system, the instructions of the manufacturers shall be observed. 2.2.3 Other cleaning procedures For the blast cleaning (e.9. by using quartz sand, steel shot or steel grt) of steel pipelines, the degree of cleanliness shall be determined in line with EN ISO 12 944-4. 2.3 Performance of cleaning Certain precautionary measures shall be taken when performing the cleaning operations. Pressure and flow velocity of the cleaning agents shall be adapted to the pipe diameters. Open pipe ends from which the clean- ing agent is discharged shall be provided with suitable means of protection to prevent accidents. During cleaning, valves shall be actuated with special care. They shall not be closed by force. If a valve can- not be completely closed, it shall be reopened and the pipeline re-flushed. If the valve cannot be closed even after further flushing, it shall be removed and properly cleaned. Cleaning operations with water should be stopped and the pipelines drained completely when frost is immi- nent. If cleaning with water has to be performed when frost is imminent, appropriate precautionary measures shall be agreed upon with the site management. ‘As far as possible, the cleaning agent shall be removed from the piping of refrigeration units since residues ‘might cause operating trouble later on. During cleaning operations, it shall be checked whether the existing drain nozzles allow complete drainage of the system. If necessary, further drain nozzles shall be provided after consultation with the site management. ‘A system shall be considered “clean” when the effluent cleaning agent no longer contains any visible impuri- ties. Systems cleaned by blasting shall be checked visually. Systems cleaned by pickling shall be checked according to UN 9253-11 "Pickling of unalloyed and low-alloy steel”. 3 __ Pressure testing ‘The type and scope of pressure testing is specified in the applicable standards or in the technical specification "Requirements for cleaning, and for material, pressure and leakage testing’. Piping under atmospheric pres- sure (e.g. drains, overflows, vents) shall not be tested. Unless otherwise specified, fire-fighting lines shall be tested according to "Standard for the installation of pri- vate fire service mains and their appurtenances" (NFPA 24 Chapter 9). 3.4. Preparations 3.14 General notes The piping to be tested shall have been erected according to the specified Standards. For testing, individual pipelines may be connected to form a "system". All valves, control valves, orifice plates, etc. which previously removed for cleaning shall be re-installed for the pressure test. All valves within the system shall be in the open position during the test. Special measures shall be agreed upon with the site management for valves, the stuffing boxes of which only close tightly at operating temperature. Process equipment (e.g. heat exchangers) should not be isolated from the system. The pressure ratings ind. cated on the name plates of the equipment shall be observed. Special care shall be taken in the case of heat exchangers, the tube bundles or plates of which are only designed for the differential pressure. During the test, both sides of these heat exchangers shall be under pressure to prevent inadmissible tensions in the tube bundles or plates. Krupp Uhde Page 4 UN 9253-21 Part 1 : 2002-03, Machinery (e.g. pumps, compressors), and large vessels as well as equipment of austenitic CrNi steel, nickel and nickel alloys shall be isolated by line blinds from the system. If possible and required, the joints shall be subjected to a leakage test after removal of the line blind. une bind Figure 1. Flanged joint with line blind Line blinds shall be designed according to the loads encountered and provided with a marking of the allowable pressure. The minimum thickness of a line blind may be calculated according to the following formula: s=d | 20P_. g |1.975—P- (according to ASME B 31.3) 16 Ope orm thickness of the line blind in mm d= inside diameter of the pipe in mm. p= max. pressure in bar ‘pom = permissible tension for material of the line blind in Nicm* (approx. 10,000 Nicm? for unalloyed steel) ‘The line blinds shall be provided with a well visible tag. The arrangement of the line blinds shall be marked on the test plan (e.g. isometric drawings). After the pressure test, the line blinds shall be removed and the flanged joints properly restored. Expansion bellows and expansion bends shall be secured in such a manner that they do not alter their posi- tion during the test. All supports shall be installed in such a manner that the test pressure does not cause any displacement of the pipes. In the case of jacketed piping, the inner pipe shall be tested first. All joints (e.g. welds) of the inner pipe shall remain accessible during testing. The test pressure for the inner pipe shall be governed by the allowable ‘working pressure of the inner pipe or of the jacket pipe, whichever pressure is the higher one. The allowable ‘working pressure in the jacket space shall be decisive for the test pressure of the jacket pipe. All joints (bolted, flanged, welded, bonded, laminated) within one system shall only be coated or insulated after the pressure test. Flanged joints which were provided with line blinds shall be insulated after leakage testing only. Pipes without welds may be coated or insulated prior to the pressure test. Safety valves, flow indicators, level indicators, automatic pressure reducing valves, rupture disks, rotary measuring instruments and diaphragm measuring devices shall be removed prior to the test or isolated from the system by ine blinds after approval ofthe site management. Instrument process lines shall be isolated from the system. Testing of these lines is part of the installation of the instrumentation. Prior to testing underground piping with bell and spigot joints shall be covered with fil material, except for the joints, in such a manner that the test pressure does not cause any displacement of the pipes. Pipe ends, el- bows, branches and valves shall additionally be secured by taking the test pressure into consideration. For pipelines to be tested with liquid (water), the pipe length to be secured can be determined according to DVGW (German association of gas and water experts) recommendation GW 368 or NFPA 24. If pressure tests are to be performed at ambient air temperatures of less than 5°C, the risk of britile fracture of the particular materials shall be observed. Krupp Uhde Page 5 UN 9253-21 Part 1 : 2002-03 3.4.2 Testing with liquid Orifice plates and other in-line items which prevent the system from proper drainage shall be removed prior to the test and replaced by dummy pieces. If possible and required, the flanged joints shall be subjected to a leakage test at a later stage. Testing with water should not be performed when frost is imminent. if testing with water has to be performed ‘when frost is imminent, appropriate precautionary measures (e.g. admixture of agents which lower the freez- ing point of the water) shall be agreed upon with the site management. Piping for gases to be tested with a liquid shall be additionally supported (e.g. by temporary supports) in such a way that the weight of the testing agent will not cause inadmissible loads on the supporting structures and foundations. Prior to testing of systems with large volumes safety zones shall be cordoned off. During the test, other works within these safety zones should only be permitted if particular requirements are met. 3.4.3. Testing with gas Testing with gas shall only be performed, if specified. In the following cases, @ test to be performed with a liquid may be replaced by a test with gas if approved by the site management: * if frostis imminent and water is used, if water or specially treated water is not available in sufficient quantities or only available at unreasonable high cost, ‘+ if the pipes shall remain dry to prevent corrosion (e.g. in the case of chlorine lines of steel) or operating trouble (e.9. in the case of refrigeration units with fluoracarbons), + ifremaining water in the pipes might cause corrosion under certain conditions (9. pitting, stress corrosion). Testing with gas always entails the risk of sudden expansion of the compressed testing agent. Therefore, special safety measures shall always be taken when testing with gas. Qualified personnel shall be assigned to the performance of the test. During the test, only the personnel assigned to the testing work shall be permitted to stay in the immediate surroundings of the system to be tested. Prior to testing of systems with large vol umes sufficiently wide safety zones shall be cordoned off. During the test, no other work shall be performed within these safety zones. ‘The specified safety measures shall be verified prior to the test. The personnel assigned to the testing work shall take up safe positions when the pressure is going to be increased. Unless otherwise stipulated in the applicable standards or required by the competent authorities, the following requirements shall be met: ‘the product of pressure P by volume V of the system to be tested shall be < 1000 (P in bar, V in m°), ‘+ at least 30% of the site welds shall be subjected to a non-destructive examination if P is > 20 bar, ‘the site welds shall be subjected to random (max. 20%) non-destructive examination if P is < 20 bar. For welds of pre-fabricated piping, test records shall evidence the specified quality. It shall be possible to identify the materials of the pipes and the welding filler metals (e.g. by material certificates). 3.2 Testing agents The testing agent will be specified by the Orderer. The testing agent shall only be replaced by another one if approved by the site management in writing. Water, air, inert gases and process fluids may be used as testing agents. The requirements and the range of application defined in sections 3.2.1 to 3.2.3 shall apply to the testing agents. Special cases shall be dealt with according to the particular requirements. If the Contractor is responsible for the supply of the testing agents he shall perform the analysis of the testing agents. He shall always perform the interim analyses regardless of the supply of the testing agents. 324 Water ‘The water shall be free of dirt, iron oxides and organic substances. Water containing chloride ions might cause pitting and stress corrosion on austenitic CrNi steel, nickel and nickel alloys if the chloride ions reach a critical concentration (e.g. in a water droplet remaining in the system after testing). An increase in temperature Krupp Uhde Page 6 UN 9253-21 Part 4 : 2002-03, will accelerate the corrosion rate. Once present, chloride ions are very difficult to remove even by subsequent flushing with de-mineralized water. The quality of the water shall be evidenced by an analysis prior to use. If the same water is used several times, interim analyses shall be made. The following testing agents can be used for pressure testing: * WSN = sea water with a chloride ion content of more than 10 000 ppm, * WSB_ = brackish water with a chloride ion content between 1000 and 10 000 ppm, * WSDB = water with a chloride ion content between 200 and 1000 ppm, ‘+ WSDA = drinking water with a chloride ion content between 50 and 200 ppm, = WSD_ = drinking water with a chloride ion content between 1 and 50 ppm, + WDS = de-mineralized water (e.g. condensation) with a chloride ion content of less than 1 ppm, + WCI = drinking water with a chloride ion content between 50 and 200 ppm and a corrosion inhibitor (e.g. 2% by volume of sodium carbonate). WSN, WSB and WSDB should be used for the testing of rubber-iined and plastic piping. if approved by the site management, water of this quality may also be used for systems of unalloyed steel with large volume provided that the systems are thoroughly flushed with WSDA after testing. WSDA should be used for piping of unalloyed or low-alloy steel WSD, WDS and WCI shall be used for piping of austenitic CrNi steel, nickel or nickel alloys. Heat exchangers with rolled-in tubes shall only be tested with WDS. If agents are admixed to the water in order to lower its freezing point (e.g. glycerin, ethylene glyco)) it shall be determined prior to testing whether these agents might cause corrosion. 3.2.2 Air and gases Air and gases shall be free from dust and oil. Only inert gases shall be used. The following testing agents can be used for the pressure test: | Al = compressed air (by a mobile compressor) with an undefined dew point, AIDR. = dry air (eg. instrument air), ¢ NH =nitrogen at high pressure (150 to 200 bar) with a purity of 2 99.5% No, | NL =drynitrogen at low pressure with a purity of > 99.5% Nz (e.g. from existing utility systems). AI shall be used for piping where the moisture of the testing agent can be neglected. AIDR, NH and NL shall be used for piping that has to remain dry. NH should be used for testing at high pressure. In this case, the piping system may first be filled with Al, AIDR ‘or NL up to the pressure that can be reached with these testing agents. 3.2.3. Process fluids Process fluids (PRM) from existing plant units, which are intended to be used as testing agents, need to be non-inflammable and non-toxic. They may not cause permanent injury to the human body (e.g. in the case of leak in the system). The allowable working pressure shall not exceed 10 bar. The temperature of the testing ‘agent may be between approx. 10°C and 180°C. 3.3. Test pressure The allowable working pressure shall be decisive for the test pressure. The allowable working pressure is specified by the Orderer in piping lists or lists of fluids. The following instructions apply to the test pressure: + liquid as testing agent: test pressure = 1.3 times allowable working pressure, + gas as testing agent: test pressure = 1.1 times allowable working pressure, + process fluid as testing agent: test pressure = allowable working pressure. For joints between existing piping and newly installed piping (e.9. in the case of plant extensions) as well as for utility lines and discharge lines, the allowable working pressure shall be the test pressure, Krupp Uhde Page 7 UN 9253-21 Part 1 : 2002-03, ‘Two independent pressure gages shall be used for measuring the test pressure.

The system shall be carefully vented during filing. At test pressures of more than 60 bar, the pres- sure shall be increased in steps of approx. 10 bar/min to its final level. The test pressure shall not be ex- ceeded, ‘Adequate precautions shall be taken to prevent from the formation of a vacuum during the test. If testing with water is performed when frost is imminent, the system shall be drained immediately after testing. For detecting major leaks, a pressure test with air (Al) may be performed prior to testing with liquid. The test pressure should be < 0.2 bar. 3.42 Testing with gas Unless otherwise specified, the pressure shall be raised according to table 3. The increase in pressure should not exceed 6 bar/h.

The reduced test pressure shall be 9.45 bar. One test with a foaming agent should be performed at pressure stage 1 If the site management demands that a system be tested with a foaming agent, all welded, flanged and bolted joints as well as all stufing boxes shall be wetted all around with the foaming agent. Adhesive tape (into which small hole shall be punched) should be placed all around the flanged joints to permit easy detection of leaks. When testing flanged joints, the person performing the test shail stand beside the joint. Krupp Uhde Page 8 UN 9253-21 Part 1 : 2002-03, Unless otherwise specified by the manufacturer, the increases in pressure in refrigeration units shall be limited to pressure stages 1, 2, and 6. Starting from pressure stage 6, the pressure may be raised to the allowable working pressure without any further intermediate steps. For the holding time and pressure decrease after reaching the allowable working pressure, the data of pressure stage 7 shall apply. With the approval of the site management, helium or halogens may be admixed to the testing agent to permit ‘easy detection (e.g. with the aid of leak detecting devices or indicators) of leaks. For piping of austenitic CrNi steel, nickel or nickel alloys, halogens shall not be used. ‘The system shall not be subjected to mechanical loads during the test. Care shall be taken to ensure that no sudden increase in temperature occurs during filing and testing. If leaks are detected, the pressure shall be reduced immediately 3.4.3. Testing of plastic piping For plastic piping, a preliminary and a main test shall be performed. The preliminary test performed at the specified test pressure serves to stop changes in volume of the plastic pipes (caused by pressure, time and temperature). After the preliminary test, the system shall be depressurized. Thereafter, the main test may be started. Testing shall be performed according to section 3.4.1 or 3.4.2. The increase in pressure should not exceed 10 barimin In the case of lined glass-fiber-reinforced (FRP) piping, the lining shall be tested prior to the pressure test. This test shall be performed either as a leakage test at a pressure of < 0.5 bar or as a spark test. After this test, the joints may be laminated. 3.5 Test period ‘The test period and the allowable pressure drop will be specified by the Orderer based on the instructions of the pipe manufacturers. The test period should be at least 10 minutes. Unless otherwise specified, no pres- sure drop should occur in the system during this period. The test period for pipelines laid mainly underground is indicated in table 4. The allowable pressure drop shall not exceed the following values: '* test pressure of < 10 bar: 0.10 bar / test period, # test pressure of < 16 bar: 0.15 bar / test per test pressure of > 16 bar: 0.20 bar / test period.

Depending on the degree of dry-out of the lining, the volume of water absorbed will vary and thus the resulting pressure drop. This pressure drop shall be compensated until the allowable pressure drop is reached. For gaseous testing agents, the holding time according to table 3 shall be considered as the test period. No pressure drop shall occur during this period. When testing with gas, changes in pressure are possible if the test extends over a period during which the ambient air temperature can change. When testing with a liquid, changes in pressure are likewise possible due to changes in temperature if unavoidable air buffers (e.g. in valve casings) are present in the system. In ‘case of an increase in pressure due to rising temperature, the pressure shall be reduced immediately to the specified test pressure. The following formula applies to changes in pressure which are due to changes in temperature: tk (Tin Kelvin, P = absolute pressure in bar) P,P, Krupp Uhde Page 9 UN 9253-21 Part 1 : 2002-03 Prolonged test periods are specified for plastic piping.

When eliminating leaks in a system which has been tested with a process fluid the risk of fire or explosion shall be prevented. In such cases, the piping shall be properly purged with inert gas (e.g. nitrogen) prior to the repair. If inflammable refrigerants are admixed to the testing agent, the piping or section thereof which can be iso- lated shall be properly purged with inert gas (e.g. nitrogen) prior to the repair. Leaky joints may be sealed after reducing the pressure in the system (when testing with water even without draining the system) i this is justified from the technical point of view. Bolts shall not be overloaded by re-tightening. The specified torques, especially for necked-down bolts, shall be observed. New gaskets shall be installed if flanged joints leak. Gaskets (e.g. at line blinds) which are to be removed after the test shall be replaced by new ones. Any displacement of the piping shall be corrected, inthe ‘The system should be re-tested if leaks were detected or changes will be made after the test. However, case of minor defects or changes, re-testing can be dispensed with if approved by the site management. 3.7 Measures to be taken after the pressure test After testing with a liquid, the system should be drained. Care shall be taken to ensure complete drainage via the low points of the system. The discharge rate of the testing agent shall be adapted to the ventilation means. ‘The air-intake valves shall be fully opened to prevent from the formation of a vacuum. In the case of systems of austenitic CrN\i steel, nickel or nickel alloys, the testing agent WCl or WSD should remain in the system until commissioning of the pipelines if complete draining cannot be guaranteed. If de- mineralized water (WDS) has been used as testing agent, the system may be drained. Thereafter, the system shall be sealed and, on instruction of the site management, filed with a dry air / nitrogen mixture (50% air) at low pressure, Page 10 Krupp Uhde UN 9263-21 Part 1 : 2002-03 no leakage test is specified, the system tested shall be protected from impurities to maintain the degree of Cleanliness. The necessary measures shall meet the process requirements. 4 Leakage testing Leakage testing will be distinguished by testing under pressure or under vacuum. The type and scope of leak- age testing is specified in the applicable standards and in the technical specification "Requirements for clean- ing, and for material, pressure and leakage testing”. 4.1 Leakage testing under pressure A leakage test shall be performed if changes are made on a system after the pressure test (e.g. removal of line blinds, installation of safety valves). ‘The leakage test should be performed immediately after the pressure test. However, the leakage test may also be performed at a later date as part of the pre-commissioning activities. If the pressure test was per- formed with a process fluid, a leakage test is not required. 4.4.4 Preparations The piping section to be tested shall be in completely assembled state, i. safety valves, control valves, ori- fice plates, strainers, etc. shall be in place. Vessels, heat exchangers, pumps, instrument process lines, etc. shall also be tested as far as possible. Tanks shall be isolated from the piping to be tested. 44.2 Testing agents The testing agent will be specified by the Orderer. Normally, gases (air or inert gas) are used as testing agents. Piping under atmospheric pressure may be subjected to a hydrostatic test. The requirements for the testing agents according to section 3.2.1 or 3.2.2 shall be observed. 441.3 Test pressure Testing with gas should be performed at a test pressure of 0.2 to 0.5 bar. 4.1.4 Performance of test ‘When gaseous testing agents are used, the joints to be tested shall be wetted with a foaming agent (e.g. Nekal). When liquid testing agents are used, all joints shall be subjected to a visual check. 44.5 Test period No definite test period is specified. 4.4.6 Determination of the tightness The piping shall be leakproof. Leaks which are indicated by fine foam bubbles or leaking water are not per- mitted Bolts shall not be overloaded by re-tightening. The specified torques, especially for necked-down bolts, shall be observed. If flanged joints leak, new gaskets shall be installed. {leaks are detected, the test shall be repeated after the leaks have been eliminated. 4.2 Leakage testing under vacuum leakage test under vacuum shall be performed if high demands are made on the tightness of the piping (e.g of refrigeration units). ‘A pressure test according to section 3.1.3 shall have preceded the leakage test. The leakage test may be performed either immediately after the pressure test or at a later date. 424 Preparations ‘The piping section to be tested shall be in a completely assembled state, i.e. safety valves, control valves, etc. shall be built in, Vessels, heat exchangers, pumps, instrument process lines, etc. shall also be tested 422 Tost pressure ‘The test pressure shall be 2.5 to 5.5 mbar for piping of refrigeration units. For different piping, the test pres- sure shall be determined according to the individual requirements. Page 11 Krupp Uhde UN 9259-21 Part 1: 2002.03 422 Performance of est Prior to testing, the piping shouldbe dried (e.g. by heating or purging wih dry inert gas). The reduction of the pressure can be effected according tothe cscharge rate ofthe vacuum pump. Special mk values need not be observed. The ambient air temperature and the test pressure shall be recorded in writing at the beginning and end ofthe tes. 424 Test period For refrigeration units, the test period shall be 2 30h. During the last 24h, the pressure may increase by $1.5 mbar. 4.2.5 Determination of the tightness For the determination of the tightness, the vapor pressure chart according to figure 2 is required to permit a distinction to be made between leaks and moisture in the pipelines. 190 90 Pressure in mbar ——> 8 8 883s og 08 07 06. 08: oa: os: 02: on 0 eet o0 eeiateco mea 10 tatnt | a ar a) Temperature in °C ——> Figure 2.

The necessary measures shall be based on process aspects. The measures specified under section 3.7 shall be observed. Piping tested with water (hydrostatic test) shall be drained. ‘After the test, the piping may be released for the application of the remaining coating and insulation. Bolted joints subjected to low temperatures (e.g. in refrigeration units) shall be re-tightened, after a complete cycle of cooling down to operating temperature followed by re-heating to ambient air temperature has been completed. Thereafter, insulation may be applied. ‘After the leakage test, piping of refrigeration units should be filled with the refrigerant. If this is not possible, dry inert gas (e.g. nitrogen) at a pressure of 0.5 to 1.0 bar shall be filled into the piping. 5 Certificates Acceptance certificates shall be prepared for the pressure and leakage tests performed according to the specified standards.
