Inspection & Maintenance of PVV (Pressure Vacuum Valve)

Inspection  & Maintenance of PVV (Pressure Vacuum Valve)

ABSTRACK

Pressure/vacuum relief valves are protection devices which are typically mounted on a nozzle opening on the top of a fixed roof atmospheric storage tank. Their primary purpose is to protect the tank against rupturing or imploding. Without an opening or a controlled opening, a fixed roof atmospheric tank would rupture under increasing pressure caused by pumping liquid into the tank or as a result of vapor pressure changes caused by severe thermal changes. Imploding, or the collapsing of a tank, occurs during the pumping out procedure or thermal changes. As the liquid level lowers, the vapor space pressure is reduced to below atmospheric pressure. This vacuum condition must be controlled by allowing atmospheric air to flow into the tank. In short, the tank needs to breathe in order to eliminate the possibility of rupturing or imploding. Because of its primary function, a pressure/vacuum valve is commonly referred to as a “breather valve.”

Breather Valves, also known as direct acting Pressure/Vacuum Relief Valves, are special types of Relief Valves which are specifically designed for tank protection. The range includes pressure only, vacuum only and combined Pressure/Vacuum Valves, all available with flanged outlets or vented to atmosphere.

Pressure/Vacuum Relief Valves are used extensively on bulk storage tanks, including fixed roof tanks with floating covers, to minimize evaporation loss. The Valves prevent the build up of excessive pressure or vacuum which can unbalance the system or damage the storage vessel. Pressure and vacuum protection levels are controlled with weighted pallets or springs and can be combined to provide the required Pressure/Vacuum settings. It is common to combine pallet and spring systems in one unit i.e. pressure settings require a spring section, whilst the vacuum settings use the pallet method.  Pressure/Vacuum valves are designed to provide protection of all cargo tanks against over/under pressure and provide for the flow of small volumes of tank atmosphere resulting from temperature variations in the cargo tanks and should operate in advance of the pressure/vacuum breaker.

Inspection & Maintenance of Pressure Vessel

Inspection  & Maintenance of Pressure Vessel

ABSTRACK

Pressure Vessel atau disebut bejana tekan merupakan wadah tertutup yang dirancang untuk menampung cairan atau gas pada temperatur yang berbeda dari temperatur  lingkungan. Bejana tekan digunakan untuk bermacam-macam  aplikasi di berbagai sektor industri seperti industri kimia (petrochemical plant), energi (power plant),  minyak dan gas (oil & gas), nuklir, makanan, bahkan sampai pada peralatan rumah tangga seperti boiler pemanas air atau pressure cooker. Di sektor industri, bejana tekan dirancang untuk pengoperasian yang aman pada tekanan dan temperatur tertentu secara teknik mengacu sebagai Design Pressure dan Design Temperature.

Apabila sebuah bejana tekan yang dirancang tidak  tepat untuk  menahan tekanan yang tinggi maka bahaya keamanan akan mengancam. Oleh karena itu, standar rancangan dan sertifikasi bejana tekan dibuat melalui beberapa design code seperti ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel di Amerika, Pressure Equipment Directive of the EU (PED), Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS), CSA B51 di Canada, AS1210 di Australia dan standar internasional lain seperti Lloyd’s,  Germanischer Lloyd, Det Norske Veritas, Stoomwezen, dll.

Pelatihan ini akan membahas mengenai guide dan aturan-aturan mengenai procedure dari maintenance inspection, inservice/certificate inspection, perbaikan (repair), alteration dan rerating dari bejana tekan (pressure vessel), yang mencakup towers, drums, reactors dan spherical storage tank. Sehingga setelah mengikuti kursus ini, peserta akan mampu : mengetahui beberapa standard inspeksi vessel berdasarkan API 510, mengetahui standar perhitungan vessel untuk perbaikan berdasarkan code ASME,  melakukan inspeksi untuk mendeteksi kerusakan secara dini,  menentukan kelayakan operasi dan umur sisa pressure vessel berdasarkan hasil inspeksi.

Hose Management

Hose Management

ABSTRACK

Selang atau hose berfungsi untuk mendistribusikan cairan atau gas dari satu tempat ke tempat lain. Perlengkapan ini banyak digunakan dihampir segala lini dalam kehidupan sehari-hari termasuk industri. Standar kualitas selang atau hose dengan bahan PVC, karet, dan Polyurethanes telah disediakan dengan kualitas produk yang sesuai dengan harga dan kerja yang optimal. Selang atau hose berbahan PVC untuk aplikasi pekerjaan yang berat seperti pada pabrik, bengkel, dan lain-lain, serta digunakan juga di dalam ruangan. Bahan ini bersifat lentur dan transparan, serta memiliki servis seumur hidup. Sedangkan bahan karet (Rubber) diaplikasin berdasarkan lingkup kerjanya seperti dalam konstruksi, pertambangan, galangan kapal, pengecoran, dan sebagainya. Selang ini memiliki sifat yang awet atau tahan lama, anti statis, dan tahan terhadap percikan las dan grinding. Untuk bahan polyurethanes diaplikasikan untuk pekerjaan yang berat baik di dalam maupun di luar ruangan. Bahan ini tahan terhadap oli, fleksibel, anti PVC, ramah lingkungan, dan servis seumur hidup.

Respon pada hose salah satunya dipengaruhi aliran fluida. Sedangkan aliran fluida tersebut dapat menciptakan momen lentur siklik (cyclic bending moments), tegangan (tension), tekanan (compression), hoop stress, dan beban torsi (torsional loading). Maka perawatan selang secara visual harus diperiksa oleh orang yang kompeten dalam keadaan masih terpasang dan beroperasi. Semua pengamatan harus dicatat dan didokumentasikan. Ini adalah teknik pemeriksaan awal kritis dimana potensi kerusakan dapat diidentifikasi lebih awal sehingga memungkinkan tindakan perbaikan yang harus diambil sebelum kerusakan selang menjadi lebih besar.   Cover atau bungkus luar tubuh selang secara visual diperiksa untuk tanda-tanda kelonggaran, tonjolan, bintik lembut, abrasi, luka atau gouges. Bagian belakang luas pengaku tikungan belakang kopling harus diperiksa untuk tanda-tanda tersebut dan kemungkinan lebih-lentur.  Apabila selang dilengkapi dengan logam eksternal di sepanjang panjangnya, maka ini harus diperiksa untuk tanda-tanda retak, external  mechanical  damage (misalnya denting atau abrasi), atau menggembung/bulging  menunjukkan kemungkinan swelling tubuh selang bawahnya.

Pelatihan ini akan membahas mengenai manajemen, pengujian dan inspeksi dan composite hoses untuk digunakan dalam industri.
