34-SAMSS-634 Local ZV Control Systems

Scope This specification covers the Saudi Aramco requirements for local Emergency Isolation Valve (ZV) control systems. Included are requirements for the ESD system input/output channels, the local control panel (LCP), and the smart valve controller that make up each Smart ZV. The Smart ZV assembly provides local control and testing functionality for spring return and double acting pneumatic valve actuators. Functional requirements are clarified including the "partial stroke" feature provided for on-line testing of ZV's. Alternative designs shall only be used when pre-approved by the Manager, Process and Control Systems Department.
Commentary Notes: All Emergency Isolation Valves (ZV's) are required to be designed and installed such that they can be functionally tested while on-line (in-service). Functional testing may take the form of a full-stroke test or a "partial stroke" test. "Partial stroke" testing provides a way to verify ZV performance when functional testing is required while the ZV is on-line. "Partial Stroke" testing is not intended to take the place of full-stroke ZV functional tests. Rather, "partial stroke" testing should be performed to meet the required functional test interval (e.g., quarterly) between scheduled unit shut downs when full stroke testing can be performed.

Conflicts and Deviations 2.1 Any conflicts between this specification and other applicable Saudi Aramco Materials System Specifications (SAMSSs), Engineering Standards (SAESs), Engineering Procedures (SAEPs), Standard Drawings (SASDs) or industry standards, codes, and forms shall be resolved in writing by the Company or Buyer Representative through the Manager, Process & Control Systems Department of Saudi Aramco, Dhahran. Direct all requests to deviate from this specification in writing to the Company or Buyer Representative, who shall follow internal company procedure SAEP-302 and forward such requests to the Manager, Process & Control Systems Department of Saudi Aramco, Dhahran.

under the following ambient air temperatures without any degradation of the manufacturer's guaranteed performance.
Outdoor Sheltered Maximum Minimum
Notes: 1) 2) "Sheltered" refers to permanent, ventilated enclosures or buildings, or permanently fixed sunshades with a top and three sides. For instruments which dissipate internal heat and are installed in custom engineered enclosures (e.g., enclosures not included in the original manufacturer's temperature certification), an additional 15C shall be added to the above maximum temperatures. An example, for "indoor air conditioned" installation, the equipment must perform at 35 + 15 = 50C. Similarly, for the "outdoor unsheltered" case, the equipment shall be designed for a maximum operating temperature of 65 + 15 = 80C. For the outdoor installations only, the designer can take credit for forced or passive cooling to eliminate or reduce the 15C heat rise. For example, if vortex coolers are used, the heat removal capacity of the coolers may be subtracted from the generated heat. No more than 15C reduction in temperature will be given as credit. The designer shall substantiate his claim by providing the support data and calculations.

6.2

Smart Valve Positioner A ZV will be made smart by the introduction of a smart electro-pneumatic valve positioner as part of the valve assembly (Fisher Rosemount DVC 6000 or approved equal with external solenoid valve). The smart valve positioner shall be mounted on the ZV actuator to facilitate online, partial stroke (limited travel) testing, full-stroke out-of-service testing, and self-health monitoring via the smart valve positioner diagnostic software. The positioner shall be installed in series with solenoid valve(s). The smart valve positioner shall communicate with the ESD system via a dedicated 4-20 ma DC/HART hybrid ESD output channel. In the event of a trip, the solenoid valve will change state (de-energize) and the positioner signal (4-20 mA DC) shall be driven to the user defined value.

6.3

Smart Valve Positioner Mounting Kit Each Smart ZV positioner shall be supplied with an actuator mounting kit designed specifically for use on the intended actuator. Each mounting kit shall include provisions for valve position limit switches (valve open and valve closed). Hermetically sealed or totally encapsulated, mechanical switch or proximity sensor position switches with contacts rated for the required load shall be specified.

6.4

In addition to the LCP test pushbutton, on-line testing of a Smart ZV may be initiated via HART protocol using a laptop computer with vendor specified valve testing and diagnostic software. Remote partial-stroke testing of ZVs may also be accomplished by using HART multiplexed external output termination modules or assemblies with an associated ZV maintenance workstation.
Commentary Note: The selection and loading of the Multiplexers and HART filters supplied with ESD marshalling terminations to integrate the hybrid HART analog 4-20 mA signal to the smart valve postioner, shall be guaranteed by the ESD vendor for proper operation with the ESD analog I/O card and the smart valve positioner.

6.5

Solenoid Valve(s) The solenoid valves utilized with Smart ZV's shall be electro-pneumatic direct operating or external pilot type (capable of operating without applied differential pressure). They shall be used to pressurize/vent the actuator in response to an ESD trip in a fail-safe arrangement with the smart valve positioner. All solenoid valves shall be specified with Viton internals. Reference Library Drawing DB-950106, Sheet 1 and 2 for the Emerson/Fisher DVC based Smart ZV architecture.

6.6

ESD I/O The Smart ZV is an integration of local controls mounted on the ZV (smart valve positioner, solenoid valves, limit switches, etc.), the LCP, and ESD system I/O and logic. The ESD I/O required to integrate a Smart ZV is summarized in the table below. Alternatively, the Smart ZV with integrated LCP (Emerson DVC 6000 with LCP100 or equal) is acceptable provided the distance between the LCP and the associated ZV Smart Valve Controller is within vendor specified limits.
