ABOUT THE BOOK
This new volume, Design and Construction of Laboratory Gas
Pipelines: A Practical Reference for Engineers and Professionals,
focuses on design and installation of laboratory gas pipelines. It instructs
design engineers, laboratory managers, and installation technicians on how to
source the information and specifications they require for the design and
installation of laboratory gas systems suitable for their intended use.
The current use of
specifications predominantly taken from medical gas standards for this type of
work is not always suitable; these standards are for use with medical grade
gases that have a purity level of 99.5%. The purity levels required in
laboratories, however, start at 99.9% for general industrial use through to
99.9995% (Ultra High Purity (UHP)) and higher. Regular medical gas standards
are also unsuitable for use with the oxidizing, flammable, and, in some
instances, toxic gases that are regularly encountered in laboratories. As need
for gas purity increases, the methodology used to design a piping system must
vary to meet those parameters, and this reference provides the necessary
information and resources.
There are no comprehensive
single sources of technical references currently available in this market,
states the author, and the generally supplied specifications provided to the
construction industry are usually generic and not specifically targeted for the
gases in use. The results provide extremely poor quality designs and, in some
instances, unusable systems. With over 40 years of specialization in the
industry from project management to systems design, testing, and commissioning
of projects with values in excess of $15 million, the author comprehensively
fills that gap with this rich resource.
Key features
• provides information on
types of laboratories that use laboratory gases and the equipment needed
• explains the various methods
of construction and the materials used to ensure that the purity of the gases
remains as supplied from the manufacturers
• incorporates the design
methodology used to meet the various requirements of the laboratory and the
information required to ensure that the correct engineering is provided
• presents information on the
purity levels of the gases and the data on the equipment used for pipelines and
compatibility issues
• presents an example of a
simple laboratory gas specification that provides guidelines on the information
necessary to provide a set of design documents
