Water-tube boilers and auxiliary installations - Part 8: Requirements for firing systems for liquid and gaseous fuels for the boiler

1. Firing systems: These requirements apply to oil and gas firing systems of steam and hot water generators. For multifuel firing systems using separate or combined burners these requirements shall apply to the oil and/or gas firing part involved. Where several fuels are burnt simultaneously, improved safety measures may be necessary, especially in respect to limitation of heat input into the firing system and proper air supply to the individual fuels. 2.

Chaudières à tubes d'eau et installations auxiliaires - Partie 8: Exigences pour les équipements de chauffe pour combustibles gazeux et liquides de la chaudière

1.1 Équipements de chauffe
La présente Norme européenne spécifie les exigences qui s'appliquent aux équipements de chauffe pour fioul et gaz des générateurs de vapeur et d'eau surchauffée.
Ces exigences s'appliquent aux équipements de chauffe des chaudières de récupération chimique (chaudières à liqueur noire) avec les compléments et les amendements spécifiés dans l'annexe A de la présente norme.
NOTE 1   Indépendamment du fait que les chaudières à serpentins (chaudières à vaporisation instantanée/chaudières à faible volume) sont des chaudières à tube d'eau, les exigences pour les équipements de chauffe pour fioul et gaz conformément au prEN 12953-7 s'appliquent aux installations à un seul brûleur.
NOTE 2   Des règles applicables au stockage de combustibles liquides et aux postes de livraison équipés de tuyauteries de transport de très grande longueur existent dans les législations nationales. Elles ne sont pas couvertes par la présente norme.
1.2 Combustibles
La présente partie spécifie les exigences qui concernent l'utilisation de combustibles liquides et gazeux tels que définis dans la présente partie. Les combustibles s'écartant des types normalisés disponibles dans le commerce peuvent nécessiter des mesures de sécurité supplémentaires ou alternatives. Pour la liqueur noire, ces mesures de sécurité sont données en annexe A.
1.3 Exploitation
La présente norme spécifie dans les articles 4 à 8 les exigences relatives aux équipements d'exploitation s'appliquant aux générateurs de vapeur et d'eau surchauffée, sous surveillance permanente par des personnels correctement formés et familiarisés aux particularités de l'équipement de chauffe et du type de combustible utilisé.

EN 13480-2.4.3.4Flexible lines shall be used for connecting the burner to the fixed piping. For fuel oil in the preheated stateonly jacketed metallic hoses shall be permitted.Furthermore, flexible lines may be used instead of expansion joints at protected locations. For oil, these linesshould be jacketed metallic hoses, otherwise they shall be provided with a protective device consisting of e.g. adouble line with an oil monitor which switches off the oil supply pump in case of an oil leakage. For gas, these linesshall be corrugated steel pipes.All flexible lines shall be as short as possible, be readily visible, and shall be installed with adequate bending radii.The flexible lines and the connections shall carry the manufacturer's symbols and indication of the nominalpressure. The design pressure shall be at least 1,5 times the maximum allowable pressure. The lines shall beprotected against unacceptable external heating.4.3.5To protect fuel lines against unacceptable high pressure, automatic control and safety devices shall beprovided. For oil lines, pressure relief valves shall be installed. Protection of oil pumps and the effect of pressurerise in lines between closed shut-off devices due to heating shall also be taken into consideration. For gas lines thenecessary protection against overpressure shall be performed by a safety shut-off valve plus a pressure reliefvalve.4.3.6On completion of installation, all fuel piping including valves and other equipment within the fuel lines up tothe burner nozzles shall be cleaned to remove any weld spatter, corrosion products and foreign matter. The typeand performance of the cleaning process shall also be recorded. In addition leakage testing and strength testing inaccordance with a good engineering practice shall be performed.For oil and gas, each safety shut-off device shall be subject to internal leakage testing, to confirm that fuels doesnot leak through the device.After any welding work or replacement of components on fuel lines, the aforementioned tests shall be repeated.The performance of the tests shall be authenticated by certificates recording the test procedure, the medium used,the test pressure and the test results obtained.The certificates shall be issued by the person responsible for the testing.4.3.7Gas escape lines for intermediate venting and for purging or charging shall be arranged such, that theescaping gas is either reliably ignited and burnt off with a flame trap installed in the pipe where the gases aretransferred to the burning device or is safely discharged to the atmosphere if unburnt. The joining together of theselines shall only permitted if no dangerous operating conditions are expected. When necessary, gas escape linesshall be equipped with the necessary draining facilities. Connections for test devices shall be provided so that theadequacy of venting can be checked.For oil, intermediate drains shall be provided to ensure the safe discharge of escaping oil.SIST EN 12952-8:2002
