Fugitive Emissions Standards
Result of the NWIP ballot for the revision of ISO 15848-1 and ISO 15848-2 (2006)
Summary:-
• Approval for the addition of ISO/NP 15848-1 to the ISO/ TC 153/SC 1 programme of work, but…
• Disapproval of its submission direct to DIS vote without further comment – more work is required.
• Approval for the addition of ISO/NP 15848-2 to the ISO/ TC 153/SC 1 programme of work, and…
• Approval for the submission of Part 2 to DIS vote without further comment.
The issues under consideration for revision in ISO 15848-1:2006 “Industrial valves - Measurement, test and qualification procedures for fugitive emissions - Part 1: Classification system and qualification procedures for type testing of valves” are more contentious than those contained in the Part 2 “Production acceptance test of valves.”
As such the changes contained in the amendments already proposed have not been accepted for direct submission of Part 1 to DIS vote. The result of voting now requires that ISO/NP 15848-1 be subject to a revision process by ISO/TC153/SC1/WG10 (which may take a maximum duration of 36 months).
ISO/NP 15848-2 may be added to WG10 work programme and as already amended may be submitted to DIS vote without further work.
Many technical comments have been received on ISO 15848-1 and these will be considered at a meeting of WG10 that has been called for 12/13 September 2012. UK/BVAA delegates will attend this meeting.
