PREFACE
PETRONAS Technical Standards (PTS) publications reflect the views, at the time of publication,
of PETRONAS OPUs/Divisions.
They are based on the experience acquired during the involvement with the design, construction,
operation and maintenance of processing units and facilities. Where appropriate they are based
on, or reference is made to, national and international standards and codes of practice.
The objective is to set the recommended standard for good technical practice to be applied by
PETRONAS' OPUs in oil and gas production facilities, refineries, gas processing plants, chemical
plants, marketing facilities or any other such facility, and thereby to achieve maximum technical
and economic benefit from standardisation.
The information set forth in these publications is provided to users for their consideration and
decision to implement. This is of particular importance where PTS may not cover every
requirement or diversity of condition at each locality. The system of PTS is expected to be
sufficiently flexible to allow individual operating units to adapt the information set forth in PTS to
their own environment and requirements.
When Contractors or Manufacturers/Suppliers use PTS they shall be solely responsible for the
quality of work and the attainment of the required design and engineering standards. In
particular, for those requirements not specifically covered, the Principal will expect them to follow
those design and engineering practices which will achieve the same level of integrity as reflected
in the PTS. If in doubt, the Contractor or Manufacturer/Supplier shall, without detracting from his
own responsibility, consult the Principal or its technical advisor.
The right to use PTS rests with three categories of users :
1)
2)
3)
Subject to any particular terms and conditions as may be set forth in specific agreements with
users, PETRONAS disclaims any liability of whatsoever nature for any damage (including injury
or death) suffered by any company or person whomsoever as a result of or in connection with the
use, application or implementation of any PTS, combination of PTS or any part thereof. The
benefit of this disclaimer shall inure in all respects to PETRONAS and/or any company affiliated
to PETRONAS that may issue PTS or require the use of PTS.
Without prejudice to any specific terms in respect of confidentiality under relevant contractual
arrangements, PTS shall not, without the prior written consent of PETRONAS, be disclosed by
users to any company or person whomsoever and the PTS shall be used exclusively for the
purpose they have been provided to the user. They shall be returned after use, including any
copies which shall only be made by users with the express prior written consent of PETRONAS.
The copyright of PTS vests in PETRONAS. Users shall arrange for PTS to be held in safe
custody and PETRONAS may at any time require information satisfactory to PETRONAS in order
to ascertain how users implement this requirement.

3.1
GENERAL
The sample conditioning system shall be designed to supply the sample at the analyser
inlet whilst meeting the conditions as specified in the analyser technical specifications. It
shall be designed so that none of the samples analytical properties are altered between the
sample take off and analyser inlet. Utility connections or supplies such as air, cooling water,
coolant, carrier gas and flushing oil, etc., shall be taken into consideration in the design of
the sample conditioning system after the suitable type of analyser has been chosen for the
intended application.
Depending on the application, a sample conditioning system will consist of the following
components:
-
filter(s);
flow meter(s);
isolation ball valve(s), needle valve(s), relief valve(s), selection valves and automated
valves;
sample pump(s);
utility connections/supplies such as air, steam, cooling water, carrier gas, flushing oil,
etc.;
A sample conditioning rack/panel from the analyser manufacturer may be used. Sample
conditioning systems may be located in the field or at the analyser house, depending on the
location of its associated analyser, see PTS 32.31.50.12 The sample conditioning system
for a moisture analyser shall be field-mounted with its sample transport line as short as
practicable. The sample conditioning system for an H2S/SO2 analyser shall be close
coupled, housed in a heated box directly mounted on top of the process line with a steam
jacketed isolation valve.
The sample transport system shall normally be a fast loop system with bypass and isolation
valves at the sample conditioning system. Single line sample transport systems may also
be used for certain applications, see PTS 32.31.50.10 Stainless steel sample transport
lines shall not be run next to galvanised pipes or come into contact with any galvanised
structure support to avoid corrosion.
For typical examples, see (Appendix 2). The selected make(s) and type(s) of component
shall be as specified in the requisition.

Page 10
Preference shall be given to components with compression fitting-ends, if specified in the
requistion, manufactured by the same compression fitting Manufacturer.
The design pressure of components and tubing shall be in accordance with
ANSI/ASME B31.3. The design pressure for sample conditioning systems provided with a
relief valve, referred to the pressure level at which the relief is installed, shall be not less
than:
- for MOP between atmospheric and 17 bar (ga) = MOP + 1.7 bar;
- for MOP between 17 bar (ga) and 40 bar (ga) = 110 % of MOP;
- for MOP between 40 bar (ga) and 80 bar (ga) = MOP + 4 bar;
- for MOP above 80 bar (ga) = 105 % of MOP;
where MOP is defined as Maximum Operating Pressure.
Special attention shall be paid to the pressure ratings and the tolerances for outside
diameter and wall thickness of the tubing. The tubing shall meet the requirements of
ISO 4200 for metric sizes and, when applicable, ASTM A 269 for imperial sizes.
The application of either metric or imperial sized tubing and compression fittings shall be
specified in the requisition.
The reliable application of compression fittings requires that:
-
the fittings and tubing are installed strictly in accordance with the Manufacturer's
instructions;
- the systems are pressure-tested after construction;
- it shall be ensured that imperial sized tubing and metric compression fittings or metric
sized tubing and imperial compression fittings are not used in conjunction with one
another because this will result in unreliable joints.
Sample conditioning systems shall have facilities for flushing, venting and/or draining, with
vent and/or drain valve(s). The vent/drain outlets shall be connected to a vent or a drain
system (5.5).
Instrument air supply lines and pneumatic signal lines should normally be made up from
polyvinylchloride (PVC) covered copper tubing and brass compression fittings and
components. However, if specified by the Principal, the air supply and signal lines shall be
made up from stainless steel tubing and stainless steel compression fittings.
NOTE:
Mixing of different materials, e.g. brass and stainless steel, is not permitted.
Steam heating circuits for heat tracing of a sample line or heated box should normally be
0.25 in. or 0.375 in. copper tubing, with brass compression fittings and components, and
also equipped with a steam trap to drain off condensate.
If specified by the Principal, supply lines for nitrogen, carrier gas and cooling water shall
also be colour coded.
Pressure gauges for sampled fluids should have a 50-mm dial and be provided with a
0.25 in. threaded connection. The type of thread shall be as specified in the requisition.

-
Solenoid valves shall be used only for switching instrument air and nitrogen. For all
other fluids a pneumatically operated valve in combination with a solenoid valve shall be
selected. The pneumatic actuator shall be provided with a direct-coupled mechanical
position indicator.
Glass components or parts should not be used for flammable and toxic/noxious fluids. If
all stainless steel components for a particular range and/or duty are not commercially
available, the Contractor/Manufacturer shall obtain written agreement from the Principal
to use glass-containing components. If utilized, glass or glass-containing components
shall be suitable for 1.5 times the maximum operating pressure of the related system
and shall be provided with 5-mm thick polycarbonate screens for personnel protection.
Deviation requires the written approval of the Principal.
NOTE: Variable-area flow meters shall have a metal metering tube.
3.3
Relief valve(s) shall be installed to protect those components installed in a system which
have a limited pressure rating, e.g., sample conditioning vessels and glass-containing
components. The relief valves shall be connected to a vent or a drainage or flare system
as required.
the maximum flow rate of flammable gases shall not exceed 20 Nl/h;
the liquid flow rate shall not exceed the maximum required flow rate, as specified by the
Manufacturer of the analyser concerned.
NOTES:
1. Flow rates exceeding the above limits require the approval of the Principal in writing.
2. The excess flow valve shall be a self-closing type to prevent the above limits from being
exceeded.
3.4
The maximum temperature of the cooling water supply during hot seasons and in tropical locations
shall be the design temperature.
If the cooling water temperature is too high, cooling by means of cold air from a vortex tube
or by refrigeration or other mechanical cooling shall be considered. However, the use of
refrigerated or mechanical coolers requires the written approval of the Principal. For
refrigerated coolers, an electric motor with single-phase power supply according to the site
standard should be used. The use of three-phase power supply requires the approval of the
Principal.
If heating is required to lower the viscosity or to prevent condensation of gaseous samples
or absorption in materials, the application shall be in accordance with (6).

topping up of reference standard/sample is not necessary. Depending on the check
frequency and usage/wastage of the reference standard, the capacity of the calibration
vessel should be sufficient to hold a batch of reference standard for 3 months before
replenishment is necessary.
If heat is required to lower the viscosity or to prevent freezing of the liquid, a stainless steel
steam heating coil shall be installed around the vessel. If steam is not available, electrical
heating tape of the self-regulating type should be applied.
The thermal insulation around vessel and heating facilities shall have a guaranteed
maximum chloride content of 10 mg/kg and be sealed against water ingress in order to
prevent chloride stress corrosion.
Piston type sample calibration vessels could be considered as an alternative to the vessel
described in (Appendix 5).
Where nitrogen is used as a pressurising medium, the pressure should not exceed
0.5 bar (ga) and a miniature pump should be used to pressure up sample delivery to the
analyser.
3.6
MOUNTING ARRANGEMENTS
All components shall be installed on a stainless steel mounting plate, secured to the sample
conditioning rack with flat, countersunk headed stainless steel bolts.
The sample conditioning rack shall be selected from one of the following types:
-
freestanding;
wall mounting,
welded, all material of carbon steel, hot-dip galvanized in accordance with the
requirements of ASTM A 123 or BS 729, after drilling and welding. The nuts shall be
retapped after galvanizing;
NOTE:
The Manufacturer/Supplier shall design the conditioning rack(s), mounting plate(s) and support(s) for
the total weight of all the components including the weights of fluid(s).

place and wrap clockwise once only with a half tape width overlap. Draw tightly around the
threads so that it conforms to the threaded surface.
The tubing shall be arranged so that the removal of one component will not require the
dismantling of other parts. The components shall also be installed in different planes to
avoid the need for bends when crossings have to be made.
The tubing shall be cut dead square with a tube cutter and the tube edges shall be
deburred. The tube end shall be undamaged, round and without scratches over the length
which fits into the compression fitting. Any coating or painting shall be removed.

The Manufacturer/Supplier shall ensure that all documentation, including material and/or construction
certificate(s) for vessel(s) and/or components as applicable, is available before inspection starts.
The system shall be checked against the as-built drawings and the requirements of this
PTS. When applicable, the related certificates shall be checked or verified. Site inspection
and testing shall be carried out in accordance with PTS 62.10.08.11 and the Manufacturers
own procedures. Attention shall also be paid on the ease of removal of sampling
components and all the associated taggings and markings.
The following tests and inspection procedures shall be performed:
1. Leak test
The complete system shall be leak-tested by pressurizing via a bubbler with air or
nitrogen at 1.1 times the design pressure of the system. If relief valve(s) form part of the
system, the relief setting shall be the maximum applied pressure to test the system.
Inlets and outlets shall be capped off with the exception of those which are provided with
a valve. The isolating valve shall be closed for these connections. All other valves and
reducers shall be fully opened.
The maximum pressure applied shall not exceed 10 bar (ga).
The system shall be pressurized for at least 5 minutes, while the bubbler is carefully
observed.
If there are signs of leakage, the Manufacturer/Supplier shall correct the leaking
connection(s)/component(s). Manufacturer/Supplier shall be liable to repair any leakage
problem on site when the sample conditioning system has been commissioned with
actual sample flowing at process conditions.
2. Hydrostatic test
Systems or parts of systems with a design pressure up to 9 bar (ga) shall be isolated
from other parts of the system having a higher design pressure, and shall be opened to
atmosphere during the hydrostatic test.
Systems or parts of systems with a design pressure higher than 9 bar (ga) shall be
pressurized at 1.5 times the design pressure via a tight shut-off valve and a high-quality
pressure gauge (error to be within 0.5 % of the maximum scale value in the range of
10 % to 100 % of the scale).
NOTE: Fluids used for testing shall be compatible with the fluids to be analysed.
The pressure in the system shall remain constant for at least 10 minutes after the tight
shut-off valve has been closed.
PTS 32.31.50.11
September 2002
Page 24
The system shall be thoroughly dried with clean dry air or nitrogen after draining.
3. Function test
All electrical and electronic components shall be connected to the applicable power
supplies and shall be function-tested.
All pneumatic or electrically operated switching valves shall be tested to confirm the
correct switching action and/or sequence as designed.
All components of a SAIL system shall be tested in accordance with the functional
specifications.
