EN 15159-1:2006 (E) 7 3.4.4 Vessels and columns Table 1 and Table 2 list the number of reparable defects to be covered with plugs. Exceptions apply to the following cases: a) outlet nozzles and agitator nozzles, including the complete neck area around the nozzle shall not be repaired by plugging. This also applies to other nozzles with a nominal diameter of 150 mm or less, including the neck area confined to a circle with an inner nozzle diameter plus 30 mm; b) convex and concave surfaces with a radii of 75 mm or less shall not be repaired by plugging;
c) seal areas (gasket bearing surfaces) shall not be repaired by plugging. 3.4.5 Accessories Accessories such as agitators, baffles, thermo pipes, probes, inlet pipes, washers, manhole covers and dip-pipes shall not be repaired by plugging (see 6.1). 3.4.6 Fittings and pump components Fittings and pump components shall not be repaired by plugging (see 6.1). 3.5 Coating thickness The thickness of enamel coatings on steel substrates shall range from 1,0 mm to 2,2 mm, with the following exceptions:
a) maximum values may be exceeded by 0,2 mm on concave surfaces; b) enamel coating may be 0,2 mm thinner than the specified minimum values in limited areas and on convex surfaces; c) coatings on small parts with very small radii ≤ 5 mm, such as valve-stems or rotors of pumps shall have a minimum thickness of 0,6 mm.
Any changes in thickness shall be smooth. 3.6 General tolerances General tolerances and tests for the concentricity of agitators (see 4.7.1 and 4.7.2) shall be agreed upon between the parties.
NOTE Examples of tolerances for vessels, agitator vessels and columns are given in DIN 28005-2 [2],
DIN 28006-2 [3] and DIN 28007-2 [4], respectively. DIN 28159 [5] gives tolerances for agitator ends and DIN 2873 [6]
gives angular misalignments of flange surfaces. 3.7 Finish Unless otherwise agreed, non-enamelled surfaces, except for those which are not to be coated, such as fitting surfaces, shall be protected by a primer. Details shall be agreed upon between the parties at the time of ordering. Corrosion protection of parts without primer, e.g. connecting elements, shall be agreed upon between the parties at the time of ordering.



EN 15159-1:2006 (E) 8 4 Testing 4.1 General The tests carried out in accordance with this standard shall be conducted only by skilled personnel and shall be documented. NOTE Examples of test report formats are given in Annex A. The surfaces to be tested shall be clean, dry, sufficiently illuminated and easily accessible. Tested components and test reports shall be marked to allow proper identification. It is at the customer's discretion to have his or her own inspectors verify the test results by repeating the tests at the manufacturing site as described below. Details shall be agreed upon between the parties at the time of ordering. 4.2 Visual examination The surfaces of glass-lined apparatus and components shall be checked visually, optical instruments, such as magnifying glasses, may be used for closer examination. 4.3 High voltage test High voltage tests shall be conducted in accordance with EN 14430. When the enamelling of a component is complete, the manufacturer shall run a high voltage test by using 20 kV. For subsequent tests, a high voltage of 12 kV may be used.
By customer request and with the agreement of the manufacturer, particular areas may be re-checked with a higher voltage. Totally glass-lined components shall be tested with a.c. or pulsed d.c. voltage. Exceptions apply to the following cases:
a) enamelled probes shall be tested with a d.c. voltage of 7 kV; b) components coated with conductive respectively dissipative enamel shall only be checked visually; they shall be marked by the manufacturer. 4.4 Test for cracks Areas where cracks are presumed to have formed shall be sprayed with electrostatically charged talcum powder to make cracks more visible. Even fine cracks will then be clearly revealed. 4.5 Coating thickness measurement Measurement of the coating thickness shall be carried out in accordance with EN ISO 2178 using a measuring device accurate to 5 % of the actual value. The thickness shall be measured by spot-checking. Extra measurements shall be taken at critical spots such as small radii, uneven surfaces and localized increases in thickness. 4.6 Dimensional test The following dimensions shall be tested and recorded: a) inside diameter and roundness of the vessel; b) diameter and roundness of the assembly flange and main flange;



EN 15159-1:2006 (E) 9 c) wavelike distortion of the sealing surfaces of the assembly flange and main flange; d) out-of-plane angle of the sealing surface of the nozzles; e) compensation thickness of the gaskets; f) distance between the support ring, the brackets and the legs, and a reference plane; g) variations in the distances between the various circumferential points of the support ring, between the individual brackets and legs and a reference plane; h) agreement with the drawing of the support elements (i.e. thickness and outer diameter of the support ring); i) ground clearance of the agitator; j) agreement with the drawing of the jacket nozzles. Additional dimensional tests are at the discretion of the customer. The manufacturer shall test and document actual dimensions. The forms included in Annex A may be used for this purpose. 4.7 Testing concentricity of agitators and pump rotors 4.7.1 General Testing the concentricity of impellers and pump rotors after assembly shall be agreed upon between the parties. NOTE A method for testing the concentricity of impellers and pump rotors is given in DIN 28161 [7] . 4.7.2 Agitators The maximum eccentricity of agitators that are supplied separately shall be documented; the measurements shall be performed by the manufacturer after machining and with the impellers still in the lathe. 4.7.3 Pump rotors The concentricity of pump rotors shall be tested by the manufacturer and if requested, the manufacturer shall document the results. 4.8 Performance test The manufacturer shall check the performance of the glass-lined components after assembly. Particular attention shall be paid to the proper performance of moving components (see also 4.7.1). Further tests covering the performance of mechanical seals or test runs with power measurement may be agreed upon between the parties at the time of ord
