Training - 15212N0016

1.4.9

Training

Where special cleaning, flushing, material control, testing, and other

special requirements are used on a contract, such as required for high

pressure compressed air systems, conduct formal training programs for

employees on the special requirements. Maintain records on such training

which shall be available for inspection by the Contracting Officer.

Certify that employees have satisfactorily completed the required training

prior to performing work on the contract.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

1.5.1

Temperature Restriction

**************************************************************************

NOTE: The designer shall assure that the piping

design temperature is not exceeded, especially for

high pressure systems. Provide aftercoolers and

high temperature shutdown devices as required for

safe operation of the systems.

**************************************************************************

Compressors or other equipment shall not discharge compressed air to the

piping systems above [38] [_____] degrees C [100] [_____] degrees F unless

approved by the Contracting Officer. Aftercoolers or other devices shall

be provided to comply with the temperature restriction.

1.5.2

Rotating Equipment

Fully guard couplings, motor shafts, gears and other exposed rotating or

rapidly moving parts in accordance with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.219. Provide

rigid and suitably secured guard parts readily removable without

disassembling guarded unit.

1.5.3

Welding and Brazing

Safety in welding, cutting, and brazing of pipe shall conform to AWS Z49.1.

PART 2

PRODUCTS

2.1

HIGH PRESSURE AIR COMPRESSOR

**************************************************************************

NOTE: Prepare section for cooling water and include

in project specification. See Section 15181 for

piping and equipment which may be useful.

**************************************************************************

NOTE: Select aftercooler for 38 degrees C 100

degrees F discharge or design special piping for

higher temperature discharge. Paragraphs entitled

"High Pressure Air Piping for 34,470 kPa (gage) at

38 degrees C 5000 psig at 100 degrees F System," and

"High Pressure Air Piping for 20,682 kPa (gage) at

38 degrees C 3000 psig at 100 degrees F System" are

rated for 38 degrees C 100 degrees F.
