ISO/TC 192 - Centrali elettriche e turbine a gas per uso industriale

Organo Tecnico: ISO/TC 192 - Gas Turbines

Note:
This International Standard covers the safety requirements for gas turbine applications using liquid or gaseous fuels and the safety-related control and detection systems and essential auxiliaries for all types of open cycles (simple, combined, regenerative, reheat, etc.) used in onshore and offshore applications including floating production platforms. This standard applies to driven machinery only where it is an integral part of the gas turbine (e.g. a gearbox integral to the gas turbine), or is located within the gas turbine enclosure and forms part of the enclosure hazardous area classification (e.g. a generator within the gas turbine enclosure), or where the driven machinery has a direct effect on the operational safety of the gas turbine. This standard excludes gas turbines used primarily for direct and indirect propulsion, special heat source applications and in research and development programmes and excludes gas turbines for closed-cycle and semi-closed cycle applications, and compressed air energy storage plants. Where appropriate, this standard may be used to give general guidance in such applications. This standard details the anticipated significant hazards associated with gas turbines and specifies the appropriate preventative measures and processes for reduction or elimination of these hazards. This standard addresses the risks of injury or death to humans and risks to the environment. Equipment damage without risk to humans or the environment is excluded. Gas turbine packages are generally specified using international and national standards. Achieving safety is promoted by using additional safety codes and standards, which are shared by gas turbines with other technologies. It has to be recognised that local legislation in the country in which the equipment is to be put to use may not be covered by this standard.
