14、1 w w w.b z f x w.c o mMSS STANDARD PRACTICESP-88 1 PURPOSE The purpose of this Standard Practice is to outline the limitations and requirements of valves in which a nonmetallic,resilient diaphragm is used to separate the working parts of the valve from the line fluid and also functions in conjuncti
15、on with other parts as valve closure-member.The use of a nonmetallic,resilient diaphragm causes valves described in this Standard Practice to be different from other commonly used valves for which genera1 and specific Standards and Standard Practices are in existence.These differences include pressu
16、re-temperature limitations,face-to-face dimension requirements,and specific service characteristics.This Standard Practice reflects industry practice in the design,manufacture,and application of this type of valve.1.SCOPE 1.1 This Standard Practice applies to valves for general liquid and gas servic
17、e that effect valve closure by means of a resilient diaphragm sealing against a weir or a diaphragm acting in conjunction with a separate or integral disk-member sealing against a seat,having equal sealing capability in either flow direction,and having diaphragms being essentially made of elastomeri
18、c or plastic material or combinations thereof.1.2 This Standard Practice defines the following categories of valves:a)Class 125 or 150 Valves(See Section 2.1)b)Standard Valves(See Section 2.2)c)Valves for Special(Low Pressure)Applications(See Section 2.3)The purchaser,when referencing the Standard P
19、ractice,shall also specify the appropriate category as listed above.1.3 This Standard Practice covers the following:a)Pressure-Temperature Ratings and Design requirements b)Commonly Used Diaphragm Pressure Limitations c)Body,Bonnet,and Bolting Materials d)Commonly Used Face-to-Face Dimensions for Fl
20、anged Valves e)Body End Connections and Wall Thicknesses f)Actuator Application Requirements g)Tests h)Marking 1.4 For specific requirements relating to the dairy industry,refer to 3-A SSI 54-02.2.PRESSURE-TEMPERATURE RATINGS 2.1 Category A Valves:(Class 125 or 150)The maximum non-shock pressure-tem
21、perature ratings of valve bodies for valves in this category shall be those specified in the applicable Standards referenced in Table A3,Annex A,and the valve bodies must conform to the applicable requirements of the referenced standards(see Sections 2.4 and 2.5 for service ratings of the diaphragms
22、).2.2 Category B Valves:(Standard Valves)The maximum non-shock pressure-temperature ratings of valves in this category shall be those listed in Table A1,Annex A.Body wall thicknesses shall be those established by the applicable requirements of the referenced standards in Table A3,Annex A.2.3 Categor
23、y C Valves:(Special Valves,Low Pressure)The maximum non-shock pressure-temperature ratings of valves in this category shall be those established by the manufacturer for the particular design.DIAPHRAGM VALVES 标准分享网 w w w.b z f x w.c o m 免费下载w w w.b z f x w.c o mMSS STANDARD PRACTICESP-88 2 2.4 The ac
24、tual service pressure-temperature rating of the assembled diaphragm valves shall be limited to the pressure-temperature rating of the body or the diaphragm,whichever is lower,as outlined in Section 2.5.2.5 The service ratings of the diaphragms shall be those established by the valve manufacturer for
25、 the design and material selection for the intended service.Maximum allowable temperatures for elastomeric,plastic,or combined elastomeric and plastic diaphragms vary with the manufacturers design and the material composition,therefore,standard values cannot readily be established.In order to enable
26、 the manufacturer to make proper recommendations regarding diaphragm and valve type and material selection,the following conditions shall be provided by the user:a)valve size b)pressure c)temperature d)medium handled,including concentrations of acids or bases e)mode and/or frequency of operation f)f
27、low rate g)line shock conditions h)vacuum i)use of line cleaning fluids j)submersion of valve.3.DIAPHRAGMS 3.1 Diaphragm materials shall be as recommended by the valve manufacturer for the intended service,considering the limitations,as outlined in Section 2.5.3.2 Diaphragms are dimensionally not in
28、terchangeable between the various diaphragm valve designs made by different manufacturers.Replacement diaphragms must be purchased for a specific model of a valve manufacturer to assure the proper dimensional fit.3.3 Diaphragms determine the service rating of diaphragm valves in most cases,as outlin
29、ed in Sections 2.4 and 2.5.Therefore,if a replacement diaphragm is being used that does not show the valve manufacturers name,initials,or easily identifiable trademark,the valve service-ratings established by the valve manufacturer are invalid.4.BODY-BONNET JOINTS 4.1 Body-bonnet joint bolting shall
30、 be designed to meet the allowable bolting stress specified in ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code,Section VIII,Division 1,at 100F(38C)for the bolting material being used.4.2 Carbon steel bolts or studs shall meet the minimum mechanical and the chemical property requirements of ASTM A307,Grade A or
31、 B.4.3 Stainless steel bolts or studs,when specified by the customer,shall meet the minimum mechanical and the chemical property requirements of ASTM A193,Grade B8.4.4 Alloy steel bolts or studs,when specified by the customer or when required in Category A valves,shall meet the minimum mechanical an
32、d the chemical properties requirements of ASTM A193,Grade B7.4.5 Other corrosion resistant body-bonnet bolt or stud materials or other body-bonnet fastening methods are not covered by this Standard Practice.w w w.b z f x w.c o mMSS STANDARD PRACTICESP-88 35.BODY MATERIALS Body materials shall confor
33、m to the standards referenced in Table A4,Annex A.Non-listed materials such as special alloys and plastics are not covered by this Standard Practice and are subject to agreement between customer and manufacturer.6.BONNETS 6.1 The bonnets of manually operated valves shall be capable of withstanding t
34、he hand wheel closure forces and fill-pressure loading in the event of a diaphragm failure.6.2 The bonnets of valves with actuators must be,in addition to the requirements of Section 6.1,capable of withstanding mechanical stresses induced by the weight of actuators or any other auxiliary equipment i
35、n all possible valve installation positions.6.3 Except as provided in Sections 6.4 and 6.5,bonnet material shall be cast iron,malleable iron,ductile iron,or cast steel at the manufacturers option,regardless of body materials,unless one of these bonnet materials is specified by the customer or a diff
36、erent bonnet material is agreed upon between customer and manufacturer.6.4 When the customer specifies a pressure-retaining bonnet for Category A valves with body pressure-temperature ratings for Class 125 or 150,the bonnet shall conform to the wall section and material requirements of the standards
37、 listed in Table A3,Annex A.6.5 Plastic bonnets are permissible when specified by the customer.Plastic bonnets shall be designed and qualified in accordance with ASME B31.3,paragraph A304.7.6.6 The seal of the sealed bonnets,when specified by the customer,shall be designed to contain line pressure o
38、r vacuum in the event of diaphragm failure.7.BODY FACE-TO-FACE DIMENSIONS Face-to-face dimensions of flanged diaphragm valves and valve centerline-to-top dimensions are peculiar to the particular manufacturers design.Consult each manufacturer for specific dimensions.Commonly used face-to-face dimens
39、ions of flanged diaphragm valves are given in Table A2,Annex A,for the guidance of diaphragm valve users.8.BODY END CONNECTIONS AND WALL THICKNESS 8.1 Body end connections shall conform to the standards referenced in Table A3,Annex A.8.2 Body wall thicknesses of Category A and B valves,shall conform
40、 to the standards referenced in Table A3,Annex A,for Classes 125 and 150.8.3 Body wall thicknesses of Category C valves specifically designed and marked for pressure ratings lower than those specified in Sections 2.1 and 2.2 shall be the manufacturers standard.9.ACTUATOR APPLICATION REQUIREMENTS 9.1
41、 Manually operated valves shall be actuated by handwheels or quick-opening levers with counter clockwise rotation to open the valve.Different means of manual actuation can be specified after agreement between customer and manufacturer.9.2 Handwheels shall be of sufficient diameter to ensure tight,ma
42、nual closure at the specified service pressure of the valve.9.3 Handwheels shall be marked with the direction of movement for opening the valve.标准分享网 w w w.b z f x w.c o m 免费下载w w w.b z f x w.c o mMSS STANDARD PRACTICESP-88 4 9.4 Pneumatic,hydraulic,pneumatic spring return,hydraulic spring return,or
43、 electric actuators shall be sized to be capable of closing the valve against a minimum of 1.1 times the maximum service pressure rating of the valve.In case the actual shutoff pressure specified by the customer is lower than the maximum service pressure rating of the valve,the actuator may be sized
44、 to be capable to close against a minimum of 1.1 times the actual shutoff pressure with the customers approval.(1)9.5 Available air or hydraulic pressure or electric current data must be specified by the customer.10.SHELL TESTS 10.1 Each Category A Class 125 or 150 diaphragm valve body shall be hydr
45、ostatically tested at 1.5 times maximum working pressure specified in the applicable Standard referenced in Table A3,Annex A.Each Category A Class 125 or 150 diaphragm valve bonnet shall be hydrostatically tested with the same pressure as the valve body,when specified by the customer,and may be test
46、ed simultaneously with the body by using a gasket in place of a diaphragm.10.2 Each Category B diaphragm valve having a service pressure established in accordance with Section 2.2 shall receive a hydrostatic or air shell test in accordance with Table A5,Annex A,with the valve in the full open positi
47、on.Each bonnet for Category B valves shall be hydrostatically tested with the same pressure as the valve body,when sealed bonnet and testing is specified by the customer.Bonnet test method shall be at the option of the manufacturer.Supplementary Information (1)CAUTION:A diaphragm valve displaces flu
48、id during the closing movement of the diaphragm;therefore,the valve cannot be closed against liquid in a pipe with two closed valves in close proximity,one upstream and one downstream.Excessive actuator force can damage the diaphragms by increasing fluid pressure beyond the capabilities of the diaph
49、ragm if the valve is forced to close against such conditions by an oversized actuator.10.3 Each Category C diaphragm valve having a design pressure-temperature rating established in accordance with Section 2.3 shall receive a hydrostatic or air shell test with a minimum test pressure of 1.2 times th
50、e design pressure-temperature rating,with the valve in the full open position.Each bonnet for Category C valves shall be hydrostatically tested with the same pressure as the valve body,when sealed bonnet and testing is specified by the customer.Bonnet test method shall be at the option of the manufa
