1.0 Scope

This procedure describes the tube expansion for the Bank Fin Fan
Coolerc in accordance with ASME Code Section VIII, Division 1 and 2 and
API 661.

2.0 Tool Equipment

The minimum tool needed as follow:

2.1 Compressor
2.2 Gun Expander with it’s accessories
2.3 Tube Expander with roll length minimum 38 mm
2.4 Oil for Tube Expander

3.0 Tube Sheet, Tubes Expansion Calculation

For good result joint within tube and tube sheet, some condition should
be prepared as follow:
3.1. Inside tube should be cleaned
3.2. Tensile Strength for the tube material could be belowed than the
Tensile Strength of the Tube Sheet Material
3.3. The condition of the tube sheet hole and groove should be rounded
and clean.

Below is the dimensional Tube, Tube SheetHole and Groove needed as follows:
