If practicable, the welds shall be positioned in zones subject to lower stresses, i.e. neither in the direct vicinity of transitions due to change in dimension or cross-section nor at points of load application. Irrespective of the design requirements to contain the internal pressure the vessel dimensions shall be selected so that no welded-on reinforcing rings are required for the purpose of vessel stability. 4.3.2 All nozzle and other connections shall be arranged in the gas space. All nozzles shall have a minimum nominal diameter of DN 50. Two access openings shall be provided. These openings shall be arranged in the vicinity of the vessel ends, and shall have a minimum nominal diameter of DN 800. Where a manhole ring (dome) is provided for access openings and pipe connections it shall be high enough to en-sure that all flange connections are located beneath its upper edge. The manhole ring need not be connected to the pressure vessel by means of welds. It shall be designed so as to keep constraints at the vessel shell as low as possible. 4.3.3 All nozzles shall be fully welded over their circumference to the vessel wall. Nozzles with a nominal diame-ter of up to and including DN 100 may be set on by welding. Set on nozzles shall have their roots ground. The drilled edges in the vessel shall be rounded. All nozzles with an inside diameter ≤ 120 mm shall be designed so as to make external ultrasonic examination pos-sible if required, to examine for cracking in the nozzle weld on the inside of the vessel. Rings for reinforcement of openings shall not be permitted. The reduced area shall be compensated by adequately dimensioning the wall thickness of the nozzles.
Welded attachments shall be fixed by double-vee butt or double fillet welds. Unwelded residual gaps shall not be permitted. 4.3.4 Welded connections are preferred to flanged connections. When flanged connections are incorporated flanges rated at PN 40 and provided with form-fit gaskets, shall be used. 4.3.5 All welded joints on the vessel shall be capable of being non-destructively examined. Prior to stress-relief heat treatment, the weld surfaces shall be dressed as follows: a) vessel inside (wetted by ammonia): The longitudinal and circumferential welds shall be ground flush to the plate surface to make examinations possible. Inside nozzle welds and welds for attachments shall be ground notch-free to form smooth transitions. b) vessel outside: SIST EN 12952-14:2004
EN 12952-14:2004 (E) 10
All welded joints shall be so laid as to make examinations possible. 4.3.6 The tensile strength Rm at 20 °C shall not be considered when determining the allowable stress for equa-tion (6.3-1 of EN 12952-3:2001). 4.3.7 The wall thickness shall be designed for 24 bar. This design pressure is composed of the saturated vapour pressure ammonia at 50 °C (highest assumed temperature of fluid, 20 bar) and an allowance of 20 %. This allow-ance shall be omitted for austenitic steels. 4.3.8 Additional loadings on the vessel wall shall be taken into account in the calculation. This means, for hori-zontal ammonia vessels, additional forces arising from cradle supports or saddles, or those arising from the type of foundation1). 4.4 Manufacture 4.4.1 Liquefied pressurized ammonia storage vessels of ferritic steels 4.4.1.1 The general requirements of EN 12952-5 shall apply. 4.4.1.2 During manufacture including welding of normalized fine-grained structural steels with minimum yield stress values < 355 N/mm2 the requirements of EN 1011-2 shall be taken into consideration. 4.4.1.3 Cold-formed ends shall be normalized. 4.4.1.4 The welded joints shall be made using the TIG welding, manual metal arc welding or submerged arc welding processes with a heat input suitable to obtain an as low as possible hardness. The weld-metal hardness in the component on the fluid-wetted side shall not exceed 230 HV 102) after stress relief heat treatment. 4.4.1.5 Only qualified basic filler metals and consumables shall be used.
