Escopo e aplicabilidade

This standard specifies the safe surface voltage for light fuel oils such as gasoline, kerosene, and diesel when filling metal containers like oil tanks, railway tank cars, and tank trucks. It is mandatory for operations involving these specific petroleum products. The standard does not apply to metal containers with suspended insulated conductors in the upper space, solid insulating objects inside, or when the oil surface contains hydrogen gas.

Requisitos técnicos

The standard establishes the critical safety threshold to prevent ignition or explosion of flammable vapors during the transfer of light petroleum products. It defines the maximum allowable electrostatic potential that can accumulate on the oil surface due to friction during pumping operations. The core requirement mandates that the maximum surface voltage must not exceed the specified safety limit. It categorizes the potential into three types: surface voltage, maximum surface voltage, and safe surface voltage. The safe value is defined as the threshold where, even if a discharge to ground occurs, it will not ignite the explosive mixture of oil vapor and air within the explosive concentration range. The standard explicitly sets the safe surface voltage value at 12000V. Compliance with this limit is essential for fire and explosion prevention in fuel handling facilities.

Métodos de ensaio

The standard outlines a specific measurement method using an insulated copper ball as a collecting electrode placed on the oil surface. The procedure requires verifying the system's ground insulation resistance and capacitance before measurement. It involves specialized equipment including an ultra-high resistance meter, a small capacitance measuring instrument, and an electrostatic potentiometer to accurately capture the maximum voltage during the filling process.
