Flow Elements. Flow Nozzles and Venturis Venturi nozzles shall also be used for all flows used for primary control. Orifice plates may be used for other flow measurements. Flow transmitters will be the differential pressure type with the range matching (as closely as practical) the primary element. Linear scales and charts will be used for flow indication and recording. Critical steam and natural gas flow meters (if appli­cable) will be temperature and/or pressure compensated, and air flow measure­ments will be temperature compensated. Differential pressure type instruments shall normally be used for flow measurements where suitable for the application. Flow transmitters shall be the essentially zero volume displacement differential pressure type. Bodies shall normally be carbon steel with stainless steel internal trim, unless other materials are required for the particular services. Overrange protection equal to the body rating shall be provided. Wherever possible, the maximum differential range in inches of water shall not exceed the static absolute pressure in psia in a compressible fluid application. Span shall be continuously adjustable over at least a 5:1 ratio. Variable area flow meters may be used for small flow rates where local indication is required. They may also be used where rangeability, nonlinearity, viscosity, or the hazardous nature of the fluid makes the differential pressure-type instrument unsatisfactory. They shall normally be the armored type with magnetic pick-up, except for water and air below 200 psig and 1-inch-or-smaller lines where glass tubes may be used. All glass tube area meters shall have front and rear plastic guard plates. Positive displacement meters shall be used to measure those flows where a highly accurate integrated flowing quantity is desired.
Flow Elements. Orifice Plates Orifice plates of the square-edged concentric type shall be specified except where unsatisfactory for the application. Plate dimensions shall conform to ASME MFC-3M. Weep holes shall be provided in steam and gas flow installations where there is possible condensation or in liquid flow where there is possible gas entrainment. Materials shall normally be Type 304 stainless steel unless special materials are required for the service. For gas and vapor service, the differential pressure range in inches of water normally shall not exceed the static absolute pressure in psia. Orifice bores will be calculated using ASME MFC-3M and ISO 5167. Flange taps shall normally be used in accordance with ASME MFC-3M. For special alloys and 14-inch-and-larger pipe sizes, in 150-psi classification, throat taps may be used. One-half-inch NPT is the normal tap size for 300 psi through 600 psi flange rating. Three-quarter-inch is the tap size for 900 psi through 2,500 psi flange rating. Where threaded connections are not permitted by the pipe class, socket weld connections shall be used. The minimum orifice flange rating shall be 300 psi ANSI except for lines 14 inches and larger, where 150 psi ANSI is the minimum. The use of higher rated flanges, or of facing type, shall be as called for in piping specifications. Ring-type plate holders shall be manufacturer's standard plate mounting. Ring facing shall be oval ANSI standard unless otherwise required by piping specifications. Orifice taps for horizontal pipe runs shall normally be oriented horizontal for clean liquids and steam, and vertical-up for gases. Venturi tubes, low-loss tubes, and flow nozzles shall be used where high-pressure recovery is necessary and/or where only low inlet pressure is available. Averaging pitot tubes shall be used where the pipe diameter is too large for acceptable orifice plate design in applications such as pump minimum flow bypass control, or where normal straight pipe requirements are not met. The element may have two pipe diameters of straight pipe upstream and downstream mounted in a plane parallel to the maximum disturbance. Other types of flow elements should be considered where their use is desirable and the above-mentioned elements are not applicable. Integral orifice meters (combination primary element-measuring device) shall normally be used for meter runs of less than 1.5 inches with a suitable strainer upstream of the meter. Eccentric type orifice plates shall be used for...
Flow Elements. Averaging pitot type (Annubar) or flanged orifice plate devices shall be used, in general, for flow measurement at the Contractor's discretion. Flow nozzles shall be used for critical measurements. They shall be of the weld-in type, flow nozzle sections with two (2) sets of pipe wall pressure taps. Calibration of the flow nozzle section shall be provided where greater accuracy is required than manufacturer's standard uncalibrated accuracy guarantee. In general, averaging pitot type devices and flow nozzles shall be stainless steel.

  • Infrastructure Infrastructure serves as the foundation and building blocks of an integrated IT solution. It is the hardware which supports Application Services (C.3.2) and IT Management Services (C.3.3); the software and services which enable that hardware to function; and the hardware, software, and services which allow for secure communication and interoperability between all business and application service components. Infrastructure services facilitate the development and maintenance of critical IT infrastructures required to support Federal government business operations. This section includes the technical framework components that make up integrated IT solutions. One or any combination of these components may be used to deliver IT solutions intended to perform a wide array of functions which allow agencies to deliver services to their customers (or users), whether internal or external, in an efficient and effective manner. Infrastructure includes hardware, software, licensing, technical support, and warranty services from third party sources, as well as technological refreshment and enhancements for that hardware and software. This section is aligned with the FEA/DoDEA Technical Reference Model (TRM) which describes these components using a vocabulary that is common throughout the entire Federal government. A detailed review of the TRM is provided in Section J, Attachment 5. Infrastructure includes complete life cycle support for all hardware, software, and services represented above, including planning, analysis, research and development, design, development, integration and testing, implementation, operations and maintenance, information assurance, and final disposition of these components. The services also include administration and help desk functions necessary to support the IT infrastructure (e.g., desktop support, network administration). Infrastructure components of an integrated IT solution can be categorized as follows:

  • Trunk Group Connections and Ordering 5.2.1 For both One-Way and Two-Way Interconnection Trunks, if Onvoy wishes to use a technically feasible interface other than a DS1 or a DS3 facility at the POI, the Parties shall negotiate reasonable terms and conditions (including, without limitation, rates and implementation timeframes) for such arrangement; and, if the Parties cannot agree to such terms and conditions (including, without limitation, rates and implementation timeframes), either Party may utilize the Agreement’s dispute resolution procedures. 5.2.2 When One-Way or Two-Way Interconnection Trunks are provisioned using a DS3 interface facility, if Onvoy orders the multiplexed DS3 facilities to a Frontier Central Office that is not designated in the NECA 4 Tariff as the appropriate Intermediate Hub location (i.e., the Intermediate Hub location in the appropriate Tandem subtending area based on the LERG), and the provision of such facilities to the subject Central Office is technically feasible, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith reasonable terms and conditions (including, without limitation, rates and implementation timeframes) for such arrangement; and, if the Parties cannot agree to such terms and conditions (including, without limitation, rates and implementation timeframes), either Party may utilize the Agreement’s dispute resolution procedures. 5.2.3 Each Party will identify its Carrier Identification Code, a three or four digit numeric code obtained from Telcordia, to the other Party when ordering a trunk group. 5.2.4 For multi-frequency (MF) signaling each Party will out pulse ten (10) digits to the other Party, unless the Parties mutually agree otherwise. 5.2.5 Each Party will use commercially reasonable efforts to monitor trunk groups under its control and to augment those groups using generally accepted trunk- engineering standards so as to not exceed blocking objectives. Each Party agrees to use modular trunk-engineering techniques for trunks subject to this Attachment.
