Factory Acceptance Test 4

The document outlines testing procedures for a system skid, including verifying equipment meets specifications, testing pressure and vacuum lines, checking motor data and component functionality, and reviewing documentation. Key steps involve walking down the skid to ensure all lines and components match drawings, verifying vessel nameplates and motor information, conducting pressure and vacuum tests for 60 minutes each, and testing agitator and pump operation with water in the system. Any deviations or needed retests will be documented.

• Applicable standards and specifications – a list of any relevant safety guidelines

published by National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA), National


Electric Code (NEC), etc.
• Reference documents - a complete set of all relevant documents to be available
during the execution of the FAT and marked up as required. These drawings are
usually located in an appendix at the back of the protocol.
• Testing equipment - a list of the equipment and instrumentation used during this test:
(vacuum gauge, tachometer, etc.)

System Skid:

• P&ID (Piping and instrumentation diagram)/ GAD (General Arrangement drawings)


walk-down – verify all lines and components are present and installed as per
P&ID/GAD. Check that components are new, anchored sufficiently to frame, and are
built in accordance with the specifications outlined in the applicable list.
• System skid and component review – verify equipment is fabricated as per drawings
and manufacturing quality meets expectations.

Vessel Nameplate Review:


Verify pressure, temperature and material information on the National Board nameplate
to be consistent with specifications/P&ID and confirm presence of ASME “U” stamp.

Motor Data Verification:


Verify motor manufacturer, model, and serial number. Also confirm motor classification
meets specified class and division standards.

Pressure Tests:
Verify lines hold pressure when fully assembled, record pressure at start and stop. This
test is generally conducted for 60 minutes to ensure the system meets the acceptance
criteria.

System Vacuum Tests:


Verify lines hold vacuum when fully assembled, record pressure at start and stop. This
test is also conducted for 60 minutes to ensure the system meets the acceptance criteria.

Components Functional Tests:


(Note: These tests are performed with water in the system; therefore, they cannot be
started until all of the vacuum tests have been completed successfully.)

• Agitator Rotation – verify that agitators rotate as expected (smoothly and with no
vibration)
• Pump Tests – verify pumps operate as expected. Pump should be able to recirculate
the water from/to the reactor.

Documentation Review:
Verify that system documentation is complete.

Deviations:
Each test should yield an acceptable result with no issues. Corrective steps will be taken
if a test fails and any retesting will be performed if required. Some tests may require
additional testing or clarification of the testing methods. Under these conditions,
