H Storage, Handling & Preservation

The Contractor's Handling, Storage & preservation procedure is available Schedule "Q",
H1
and approved. Att IV, Para. 5
Shipping protection was maintained as follows:
1) The internals of exchangers are protected from corrosion by
use of a non-toxic vapor phase corrosion inhibitor such as 32-SAMSS-011,
H2
CORTEC VCI-309 or 307 or equivalent. Para. 10.3.4
2) Alternatively, nitrogen blanketing or temporary coatings as
per MIL-C-16173-D Grade IV (eg. Tectyl 846) was used.
Corrosion inhibitors for use on exchangers with stainless steel and monel
32-SAMSS-011,
H3 tubes are chloride free, suitable for intended use, and do not result in
Para. 10.3.4
crevice corrosion.
Flanged connections and all other machined surfaces have been
32-SAMSS-011,
H4 protected by a suitable coating and fitted with a 3 mm thick steel or wood
Para. 10.3.5
cover, and neoprene gaskets.
The covers have been securely attached by a minimum of four bolts 32-SAMSS-011,
H5
equally spaced. Para. 10.3.5
For ocean shipment, flanged connections are covered with heavy duty 32-SAMSS-011,
H6
plastic bags securely taped to the nozzles. Para. 10.3.5
Lube-oil and seal-oil exchangers are demonstrated to meet the 32-SAMSS-011,
H7
cleanliness requirements of API STD 614. Para. 10.3.6

Exchangers are completely dried and cleaned from all loose scales, weld 32-SAMSS-011,
H8
slags, dirt and debris. Para. 10.3.7.
