3、eria,requirements,material characteristics,and essential features for oil spilldispersant application systems.This guide is not intended to berestrictive to a specific configuration.1.2 This guide covers vessel-based spray systems employ-ing single-point spray nozzles,including designs that havebeen
4、 based on or evolved from“fire-monitor”systems,and isnot fully applicable to other systems such as spray boom/nozzle or aircraft systems.1.3 This guide is one of five related to dispersant applicationsystems.The other four guides cover the design of boom andnozzle systems,spray system calibration,sp
5、ray depositionmeasurements,and use of the systems.Familiarity with all fiveguides(listed in 2.1)is recommended.1.4 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard.The values stated ineach system may not be exact equivalents;therefore,eachsystem shall

9、ys-tems include spray nozzles,some of which may be similar tothose used in firefighting,that generate a spray pattern directedout from a location on the side of the vessel without the needfor an outrigger boom or spray arm system to support the spraynozzle.The system includes a pumping or pressure s

12、many standard firefighting nozzlesare not suitable for effective application of dispersant.Some firefightingnozzles have variable spray pattern adjustment and flow control and thesemay be suitable for dispersant application.Some foam application nozzleshave been designed to generate uniform,volumetr
