SYSTEM DESIGN FLOW VELOCITY FITTINGS AND FLANGES Hydraulic systems are designed according to a working pressure that the required forces and torq are achieved. Hydraulic system are generaly designed much more approxiamately than 15-20 % the working pressure. All components should be selected to meet the maxiumum system pressure. At the same time all design parameters have to be selected specifically for each the system and the customers requirements, rules, regulations and certifications. SELECTION OF PIPE SIZE The inner diameter and wall thickness of the pipes are determination of correct pipe size. The inner diameter selected according to on allowed pressure losses or on flow velocity. The wall thickness is selected according to on the required pressure rating. FLUID (OIL) VELOCITIES Recommended oil velocities to be utilized for initial pipe sizing in suction and pressure lines can be d = 4. Qmax Q = V * A. v d = inner diameter of the pipe [mm] Qmax = maximum flow rate [Lpm] v = flow velocity [m/s] The Reynolds number can be determination of flow type inside of pipe. Laminar flow Re < 2300 Turbulent flow Re > 4000 The critical Reynolds number should be Rekr for typical hydraulic pipe flow is 2500.

Special Instruction for Pickling in Site PICKLING Hidroproser prepared and applied procedures and technical specifications for chemical cleaning process are removed from potential risks in the field. The pickling activities are caried out expert, experienced and qualified team by HIDROPROSER. General Preparation Closed Loop Circulations for pickling Health & Safety Chemical Products to be use for Pipe Pickling Operations Pickling İn Line Pickling Procedure for İn Line Pickling Pickling Circuit Test Pressure with Water or Compressed Air Washing by means of water Acid Washing (Hydrochloric Acid treatment) Passivation ph Value and Visual Control of Pipe Surfaces Drying Piping System Preconditioning Line Conservation
PICKLING PICKLING RECIRCULATION PROCESS PICKLING PROCEDURE FOR IN LINE PICKLING FLUSHING WITH OIL DISPOSAL TANK CLOOSED LOOP CIRCULATION PRESSURE TEST Purpose of the acid washing is to solubilize the oxide layer present against the inside walls of the piping. When the previous alkaline washing and water washing is concluded, the circuit will be filled by water adding following reagents: DRYING NEUTRALIZATION TANK ph 7 DEGREASING HCL (33 % Acid) Inhibütor Amonium Bi Florür for pickling for pickling for pickling WATER CLEANING Pickling concentrated will be added up until to have the solution reaching a ph value equal to 1-2. By the way, acid washing duration will not be less than 4 hours. PASIVATION ph 9-10 NEUTRALIZATION ph 7 PICKLING ph 1-2 The following analys will be randomly performed during the pickling phase; Acid Content ph control will be sufficient. PASSIVATION PREPARATION CLOOSED LOOP CIRCULATIONS FOR PICKLING HIDROPROSER is identify and arrange of all the necessary (to by pass components such as valves and cylinders) temporary fittings and blind flanges, for the pickling circuit preparation. The pickling operation will be include interconnecting piping of Hydraulic system, Gress and Lubrication oil for carbon steel welded lines. The stainless steel lines can only apply de-greasing process. Purpose of the passivation phase is to create a protective layer on the inside walls of the piping, protecting them from oxidation. This passivating solution will be kept in circulation for 2 (four) hours keeping the temperature steady. HIDROPROSER provide an operating sequence of how propose to pickling the system. VISUAL CHECKING INSIDE OF PIPE SURFACE After the finishing passivation step randomly It will be a visual check inside of the piping surface condition removing the flanged joints The system schematic, showing where connections for pickling equipment will be installed. Information on how the system is to be interconnected to form a continuous loop will be shown on these drawings. Prefabricated loops will be precleaned and followed every stage of process. All valves, manifolds, cylinders, system pumps and system reservoir will be bypassed during pickling and capped to prevent entry of dirt. DRYING Nitrogen will be inserted to empty the circuit as soon as possible the passivation phase is concluded, opening all drains with a low nitrogen flow and eventually, opening flanges connection in order to drain the solution as much as possible. SYSTEM RECONDITIONNING All temporary piping connection will be reconditioned as soon as the above here describe operations, and/or flushing phase has been completed. Particular care will be taken to avoid piping contamination during such phase. Time frame between the chemical treatment and further flushing operation or circuit start up with final fluid, shall be as short as possible to prevent oxidation of inner piping walls. This never achievable and the whole circut shall be kept under a preservation state. The most suitable preservation state is achievable keeping the whole circuit under a low nitrogen pressure after drying phase and up until the system will be started up. 16 17
FLUSHING Hidroproser guarantees all work undertaken to comply with all relevant requirements of the customer s specification; certification and documentation will be provided on completion.
FLUSHING FLUSHING SYSTEM PREPARATION Only the simplest system can be flushed in one operation. In the majority of systems, they should be divided into sections or loops, the sections being flushed in turn. The separate loops should be arranged onsite using jumper leads, make-up pieces etc. to give the least number of flushing circuits possible to ensure a continuous circulation of oil with no deadends returning to the flushing rig reservoir. The installation of several bleeding points on the highest points of each line should be pressure tested in order to purge air out of the installation. With this operation, pressure stabilization time will reduce significantly. PURPOSE OF FLUSHING After fabrication (and installation) and pressure testing of piping systems, it may be necessary to clean the piping system to remove all particles and contamination from inside the pipes and components. The aim of flushing is to remove any contamination by passing fluid through the system at velocity much higher than during normal operation, but based on calculations of Reynolds numbers. All components ready for assembly into the system should be in a clean condition, inhibited with preservation oil and all openings sealed. All piping must be free from scale, rust, flux, etc., otherwise is will be rejected and replaced, or cleaned prior to assembly. Any contamination that may have been introduced in transit or during system assembly, and may be harmful to equipment connected to it, must be removed. Flushing is often performed immediately after pressure testing. Some of the following conditions may therefore have been set up during pressure testing but are repeated for completeness and added safety. ACTIVITIES BEFORE FLUSHING These may include: Description of the system, number, test pack, gauge, pump, flange specifications, etc. Pre-fabrication acceptance details Scope of test and support drawings Risk assessments and method statements Contamination assessments Relevant regulatory for the type of application and the PPE requirements, e.g. reference to stipulations in the contract, company Handbook, etc. Customer Health & Safety regulations Main contractor regulations FLUSHING EQUIPMENT Check that the flushing rig which consists of pumps, reservoir, filters, thermometer, particle counter, hose connections, is in a clean condition throughout. All terminations should be connected with adjacent pipe work to provide a continuous loop. Check that the adjustable relief valves are set at a pressure above that required to pass the full pump flow through the system which is to be flushed. The filters may be of disposable element type. The filters should incorporate clogging indicators. The filter size should be selected to pass the specified pump delivery at a low-pressure drop. Select a filter size to meet the requirements of the system to be flushed. It should have a generous dirt holding capacity. Temperature gauge and pressure gauge should be calibrated and calibration record submitted prior to start flushing. Flushing oil should be specified according to system demands. 20 21
FLUSHING FLUSHING FLUSHING FLUID The flushing fluid must be compatible with the fluid specified for the system and with system materials, especially the seals. In all cases the appropriate technical and regulatory standards will apply to the fluid selection, including supplier specifications, e.g. in the use of synthetic hydraulic oils. The recommended flushing fluid is normally the same grade as the working fluid. FLUSHING VELOCITY AND TEMPERATURE To ensure that the system is flushed as quickly and efficiently as possible, both fluid velocity and temperature should be as high as conveniently possible. Heat oil during work to 55 ºC ~ 60 ºC for VG32 oil. The temperature shall be measured in the reservoir. Temperature shall not exceed 62 ºC. The flushing flow is calculated and based upon achieving turbulent flow. This is achieved when Reynolds number is greater than 4000. Flow = Re x ID x Vsc 21220 Re = Reynolds number ID = Inside diameter of largest pipe to be flushed Vsc = Oil viscosity at flushing temperature NB Re of 4000 minimum is preferred. A reasonable temperature limit for mineral oils is 60 ºC, for water-in-oil emulsions and water-glycols it is 50 ºC. Higher temperatures are acceptable for silicone and some other synthetic hydraulic fluids.

New fluid is often dirty by hydraulic standards. Circulate the flushing fluid. Thermal shock During the flushing, the oil temperature will be oscillated but if fluid temperature exceeds 62 ºC it shall not be re-used. Hydraulic shock The system may be hydraulically shocked by shutting down valves to interrupt the flow. Mechanical shock Vibrator or rubber hammer can be used on the horizontal section and corners of the line to apply hammering effect on the pipe.
