2.1.3 CFR Reference: 192.165 Compressor Stations: Liquid Removal
2.1.3.1 CFR Language: 192.165(b)(3) (b) Each liquid separator used to remove entrained liquids at a compressor station must: (3) Be manufactured in accordance with Section VIII of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, except that liquid separators constructed of pipe and fitings without internal welding must be fabricated with a design factor of 0.4, or less.
2.1.3.2 ASME Standard Reference The CFR references ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code, Section VIII, Division I, “Rules for Construction of Pressure Vessels" in its entirety and ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code, Section VIII, Division 2,“Alternative Rules, Rules for Construction of Pressure Vessels" in its entirety.
2.5.1.2.1.2 Planning (B31.8- N-2) (a) All pressure tests shall be conducted with due regard for the safety of people and property. When the test pressure is above 400 psig (2,760 kPa), appropriate precautions shall be taken to keep pcople not engaged in the testing operations out of the testing area while conducting the hydrostatic test. (b) Selection of Test Sections and Test Sites. The pipeline may need to be divided into sections for testing to isolate areas with different test pressure requirements, or to obtain desired maximum and minimum test pressures due to hydrostatic head differential. The elevation at the test site, the high point and low point of the isolated area, must be known to maintain the specified pressure at the maximum and the minimum elevations. (C) Water Source and Water Disposal. A water source, as well as location(s) for water disposal, should be selected well in advance of the testing. Federal, state, and local regulations should be checked to ensure compliance with respect to usage and/or disposal of the water. In disposing of the water after testing, care should be taken to prevent damage to crops and excessive erosion or contamination of streams, rivers, or other waterbodies including groundwater. (d) Ambient Conditions - Hydrostatic testing in low temperature conditions may require (I) heating of test medium.ASME PTB-9 pdf download.
