T-2 Flashcards
Four Measured Variables
- Pressure
- Temperature
- Level
- Flow
Pressure: Low Pressure
Pressure in a process component less than the minimum operating pressure.
Pressure: High Pressure
Pressure in a process component in excess of the maximum operating pressure, but less than the MAWP.
Pressure: MAOP
Pipelines. Highest operating pressure allowable at any point in a pipeline system during normal flow or static conditions.
Pressure: MAWP
The highest operating pressure allowable at any point in any component other than a pipeline during normal operating or static conditions.
Pressure: Overpressure
Pressure in a process component in excess of the maximum allowable working pressure.
Also and Undesirable Event.
Temperature: Low Temp
Temperature in a process component less than the minimum operating temp.
Temperature: High Temp
Temperature in a process component in excess of the design operating temperature.
Temperature: Excess Temp
Temperature in a process in excess of the rated working termperature.
Also Undesirable event.
Level: Low Liquid Level
Liquid Level in a process component below the lowest operating level.
Level: Gas Blow-by
The discharge of gas from a process component through a liquid outlet.
Also and Undesirable Event.
Level: High Liquid Level
Liquid level in a process component above the highest operation level.
Level: Liquid Overflow
The discharge of liquids from a process component through a gas outlet.
Also an Undesirable Event.
Flow: Low Flow
Flow in a process component less than the minimum operating flow rate.
Flow: Backflow
Fluid flow in a process component opposite to the normal flow direction.
8 Undesirable Events
