valve function. Gas compressor recycle valves shall also be linear.
The inner valve of a three-way valve shall have a linear characteristic when its function is flowsplitting.
Standard Trim material is AISI 316 unless otherwise specified.
Hardened trims, seats and stems are required when the pressure drop across the valve exceeds
10 bar or when the temperature is above 316C, when the pressure drop across the valve exceeds 5 bar in steam service, or when there is a risk of flashing/cavitation.
High friction trim is selected for high pressure drop applications, to prevent the onset of cavitation
and to reduce the noise level. High friction trim has a high pressure recovery factor, FL/ISA.

10.5

Bonnet shall be bolted according to ASME B31.3, and material shall be the same as the body
material. An extended bonnet is normally used when fluid temperature is below 0C or above

operation.
Angle Valves: Flow tending to close.
Other Valves (globe, ball, etc.): Flow tending to open.
Valves with eccentric rotating plug: Flow tendency to correspond with valve action in case of
power failure.

10.9

0.4 to 2 bar g to obtain a small and fast actuator, since positioners are normally needed.
Actuators shall be sized to obtain a stroke time of 10 sec.
Ball valves and plug valves used as shutdown valves shall have an actuator designed with a safety
factor of 2.5 with respect to start friction, as the friction increases if the valve has remained in one
position for a long time.

10.10

Sizing and available pressure drop. The minimum available pressure drop shall be 15% of the
total system pressure drop to achieve effective control, however it is desirable to have 25%. If the
valve is a bypass valve of a heat exchanger, then the available pressure drop is often only 25% of
the pressure drop over the heat exchanger when the bypass valve is closed.
Control valves shall be sized in accordance with the calculation method and formula shown in ISA
S.75.01.

The required Cv is normally selected 30% larger than the calculated Cv for normal flow conditions, or in few cases as the calculated Cv for a maximum flow condition.
Butterfly valves shall be sized for a maximum opening angle of 60o.
Exception is made for characterized disc valves, which may be sized for a maximum opening angle of 90o.

As most sample gases are combustible, the analyser section or the whole analyser shall be provided with nitrogen purge (Exp). Vent lines shall have moisture separation. In case of low nitrogen purge, the analyser shall immediately be de-energised. The analysers can optionally be in Exd
enclosure.
Emission analysers installed in a non-hazardous area can be of the general purpose type, located
in a weatherproof enclosure.
If required, the cabinets shall be electrically heated to prevent internal condensation when not in
operation.
Analysers and their accessories shall be pre-mounted, tubed, wired and complete with selfstanding racks accessible from both sides.
12.1

Sample Conditioning Systems are as important as the analyser. The sample system shall be
provided by the same vendor as the analyser and be carefully designed. Refrigerator cooler shall
be used for CO2 and CO sample systems.

12.2

Gas and Vapour Systems volume shall be kept to a minimum. The tubing shall be of stainless
steel with a diameter of 6 mm.
For gas samples, pressure shall be reduced at the sampling point to increase the velocity through
the sample system and to reduce the time lag between the sample point and the analyser.
Special low volume insert type sample probes shall be used for analysers, particularly for high
pressure applications.
Sample bypasses around the analysers shall be supplied. This ensures that the sample lines are
purged and it reduces the time lag of the sampling. The sample bypass is either vented to the atmosphere or returned to a part of the process with a lower pressure.
The sample must be clean and free of particles. A strainer of suitable size shall be installed immediately ahead of the primary pressure reducer, or the reducer shall have a built-in filter. Additional
filters, strainers and drains, which may be required, should be specified as part of the system. All
components shall be as small as practically possible to minimise the volume of the sampling system. Water-washing of the stream may be required when dirty samples, such as from stack gas,
shall be analysed. The water should be recycled with only a small make-up and drain stream to
minimise composition changes.

Normally, desiccants should be avoided when drying a sample stream. Chilling and trapping the
moisture is preferred, because desiccants can be spent, fail to function or they may absorb other
constituents besides water.
Steam or electrical tracing and/or insulation of the sample line are required if condensation of the
sample can occur at ambient conditions. A heated cabinet shall be provided by the manufacturer
for the sample-conditioning system, if there is any danger of condensation.
Sample calibration span and zero gases shall be provided with double block and bleed valves to
ensure positive isolation.
12.3

Liquid System Streams must be taken to the analysers, the sampling problem being similar to a
gas or vapour system. Filtering, pressure reduction, cooling or heating may be required. The extent of sample conditioning required shall be determined by the medium in the process line.
Liquid bypasses around the analyser shall normally be provided to reduce time lag of sampling.
They shall be drained to a sewer or returned to a part of the process with a lower pressure.
pH, conductivity and similar probes shall be installed in a bypass line to make it unnecessary to
interrupt the process for service of the electrodes.

12.4

Installation of analysers shall normally be in accordance with API RP - 550 part II.

12.5

Analyser Houses and Shelters shall preferably be located in a non-hazardous area.


External and internal explosion hazards are to be considered when equipment is chosen for analyser houses.
No sample or calibrating gases must be vented in the analyser house. Calibrating gases (bottles
and regulators) shall be placed outside (open air).
No direct connection to a sewer is allowed, therefore an open drain, located outside, shall be
provided.

12.6

Utilities shall be available at the analyser houses or shelters, i.e.:


-

Cooling water for final sample cooling


Potable water
Instrument air
Nitrogen
Power supply according to design basis

Fire-fighting equipment.

12.7

Sample coolers are not required for most flue gas applications. Process gas streams above
100C normally require cooling, and a calculation based upon the sample rate and the latent heat
will clarify whether an air cooler is sufficient or if a water cooler is required.

13.

Alarm Switches

13.1

Alarms are generated from switches in the field, in analog electronic switches in panels/racks and
in the DCS or ESD system.

13.2

Contact Type shall be specified as single pole, double throw, wherever possible. Only one
function per switch shall be specified (i.e. alarm only or shutdown only). Gold-plated contacts to
be used for voltages below 48 V.

13.3

Switch Actions shall be closed circuit for normal operation and open circuit for alarm condition
(fail-safe).

14.

Control System
A Distributed Control System (DCS) from a recognised supplier shall serve as control system for
the plant. If feasible, it shall include the compressors and the utilities.
Supervision and control will take place from the central control room via a number of modular
Operator Workstations which provide the Operator's interface to the DCS.
The system shall be designed with a high degree of reliability, achieved by the use of redundant
data busses and redundancy for critical modules.
The normal display on the Operators Workstations shall be a graphic "flow sheet" display with
real time indication of the process parameters, and it is normally from this level of the display hierarchy that the operator's interventions take place, i.e. set point changes, manual control, stop/start
of pumps, etc.
The DCS shall have an open architecture enabling easy exchange of data with other systems
through standard protocols.
Printers are used for alarm- and event-logging and for shift reports.

Turbine and Steam System Instrumentation:


In very fast loops smart transmitters shall have a dead time of maximum 20 ms or analog transmitters shall be used. The controllers can be in the DCS if the execution time is under 50 ms, otherwise dedicated digital or analog controllers shall be used.

15.

Emergency Shutdown System


The central part of the Emergency Shutdown System (ESD) shall have a very high degree of reliability. It is required that the system has fail-safe actions, but it is also necessary that the reliability
is so high that the "Mean Time between Failure" (MTBF), for a system failure that initiates an unwanted shutdown, is approx. 5 years.
The system shall have facilities for testing input, output and CPU function, without affecting the
operation of the plant.
This will result in a short fault detection time, and as such in a low "Mean Down Time" (MDT).
Consequently the availability will be high, which is the key parameter for the ESD system.
A hard-wired Mimic panel, which clearly displays status of trip alarms, bypasses, trip-groups,
etc. with a first-up alarm, shall be incorporated near the DCS Operator Workstations. Alternatively, a dedicated operator console, with graphics and functions as those described above, but
with hardware manual bypass and manual trip switches, shall be provided.
The operator shall also be informed about trip conditions by means of a warning sound (to be
different from the audible signal from the DCS alarm system).
The operator can inactivate a trip alarm input, required for start-up and restart. A light on the
mimic panel or on the screen shall indicate that the trip alarm is inactivated. The operator shall be
warned by sound and fast flash if the inactivated trip input goes to alarm status.
Pre-warning alarms will be provided for most trip alarms in the DCS.
For further description of the ESD system, see HTAS Doc. No. J-181 "General Specification for
Emergency Shutdown System".
