10、ty-related equipment will function as specified.The standard was developed under sponsorhip of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers(ASME)as an effort by the American National Standards Committee N45 on Reactor Plants and Their Maintenance.This committee has been chartered to promote the deve
11、lopment of standards for the location,design,construction,and maintenance of nuclear reactors and plants embody-ing nuclear reactors,including equipment,methods,and components specifically for this purpose.In October of 1972,the N45 Committee of ANSI established a task force to prepare a series of s
12、tandards to assure that safety-related valves would function as specified.This standard provides for the specification of the required functional characteristics of these valves.Utilization of this standard will provide assurance that the functional requirements of valves are fully described so that
13、 valves can be designed to provide safe,reliable operation for all foreseeable conditions including preoperational tests and extreme limits of plant design conditions.Suggestions for improvement gained in the use of this standard will be welcomed.They should be sent to the secretary,American Nationa
