LOADING ETHYL CHLORIDE FOR SHIPPING
REVIEWED BY: SW
DATE: 6/23/92
1. Loading plans will be made by EC and Shipping Foremen each afternoon during the wee]:. The EC lead operator will need to balance loading requirements with sampling requirements. Because of this, the exact time of loading will be determined by the EC lead operator. Shipping personnel and the EC lead operator will work out the loading schedule.
2. Shipping will line up the EC day tank for loading.
3. The EC lead operator will line up EC day tanks for sampling, transfer to spheres and production.
4. Shipping will begin transfer as soon as possible after the day tank is lined up. Shipping personnel will open the transfer block valve and the recirculation block valve before starting the transfer pumps. After starting the transfer pumps, he will adjust the recirculation valve to get 70-80 psi discharge pressure on the EC transfer pumps.
5. It is the shipping personnel's responsibility to restart pumps or check pumps if there is a transfer problem. If shipping cannot find the problem;, he will notify the EC lead operator.
6. The low level alarm will be the "empty" point for EC day tanks. The EC lead operator will notify shipping when this occurs. Shipping will shutdown the transfer pumps and will line up the next tank if agreed upon by the EC lead operator. If shipping is about to top off a tank, they can continue to load out of a low level EC day tank if agreed upon by the EC lead operator.
7. When shipping has finished loading, they will close the loading valve slowly or shutdown EC transfer pumps first. This is to prevent transfer line hydraulic shock from blowing the transfer line rupture disk and SRV.
