Any user of this NES either within MOD or in industry may propose an amendment to it. Proposals for amendments that are not directly applicable to a particular contract are to be made to the publishing authority identified on Page (i), and those directly applicable to a particular contract are to be dealt with using contract procedures.
3.
If it is found to be unsuitable for any particular requirement, MOD is to be informed in writing of the circumstances.
4.
No alteration is to be made to this NES except by the issue of an authorized amendment.
5.
Unless otherwise stated, reference in this NES to approval, approved, authorized and similar terms means by the MOD in writing.
6.
Any significant amendments that may be made to this NES at a later date will be indicated by a vertical sideline. Deletions will be indicated by 000 appearing at the end of the line interval.
7.
Extracts from British Standards quoted within this NES have been included with the permission of the British Standards Institution.
8.
This NES has been reissued to reflect changes in departmental nomenclature and the changes to technical requirements.
Conditions of Release General 9.
This NES has been devised solely for the use of the MOD, and its contractors in the execution of contracts for the MOD. To the extent permitted by law, the MOD hereby excludes all liability whatsoever and howsoever arising (including but without limitation, liability resulting from negligence) for any loss or damage however caused when the NES is used for any other purpose.

DESIGN REQUIREMENTS/GUIDANCE Related Documents: There are no related documents in this section.
4.1
Safety a.
4.2
4.3
All hazards are to be where possible avoided by design. Where this is not possible one of several protective measures are to be taken. Any residual hazard is to be indicated by warning labels positioned adjacent to the hazard and included in the operating instructions.
General a.
Centrifuge design is to be such as to allow the maximum interval between routine servicing.
b.
Centrifuges are not required to operate fully immersed.
Pumps a.
b.
Centrifuges are to be provided with: (1)
An integral or separate supply pump to deliver dirty oil to the centrifuge;
(2)
A pump for discharging clean oil from the centrifuge;
(3)
A paring-disc pump, when required, for discharging water from self-cleaning type centrifuges.
A separate motor driven supply pump is required when the system the centrifuge is serving: (1)
Demands a higher suction lift capability than is generally specified for an integral supply pump (see Clause 1.4c.);
(2)
Requires the pump to perform duties additional to that of a centrifuge supply pump.
c.
The design is to ensure that the centrifuge discharge pump has a higher throughput than the supply pump to preclude overflowing in any condition.
d.
Arrangements are to be fitted whereby the rate of discharge of oil to the centrifuge can be regulated. Surplus oil is to be returned to the supply pump suction unless there are particular reasons to return it to a tank. The arrangements are to be such that the suction chamber of the centrifuge discharge pump cannot run dry. This requirement is particularly important for positive displacement type pumps.
e.
Each integral positive displacement type pump is to be fitted with a spring-loaded relief valve with return to suction. No valve is to be fitted between the pump and the relief valve or in the return to source. The relief valve is to be permanently set to prevent excessive discharge pressure in the event of operating against a closed discharge valve in the system.
f.
It is essential that the inlet connection of the centrifuge supply pump remains primed with oil, even where the pump is self priming. To achieve this a non-return valve is to be provided in the pump suction line.
g.
When a paring-disc pump is provided to discharge clean oil from the centrifuge, the discharge head is to be not less than 11 m at the rated throughput of the centrifuge and the appropriate viscosity.
4.1
DEF STAN 02–323 / ISSUE 2 (NES 323)
4.4
Strainers a.
4.5
A strainer is to be fitted at the inlet branch of the centrifuge integral supply pump and is to be 80 mesh size.
Oil Heaters a.
Centrifuges, other than fuel centrifuges, are to be provided with an oil heater, which is mounted separately from the centrifuge. The origin of supply will be stated in the SRD.
4.6
Tanks
4.6.1
Anti-flood Tank
4.6.2
a.
An antiflood tank is to be provided by the centrifuge manufacturer as an associated part of a centrifuge to meet the requirements of Clause 4.9.1. The antiflood tank is to protect against loss of oil in the event of water seal failure. Alternative automated systems for this application should be submitted to the DPA for consideration.
b.
The tank is to be fitted with a float controlled switch, set to shut down the centrifuge if the oil or water in the tank rises to a predetermined level and initiate an alarm.
c.
The relative positions of the antiflood tank and the sullage tank are to be such that the water collecting in the antiflood tank drains continuously to the sullage tank. The effluent drain hole from the antiflood tank is to be fitted with a normally open SHUTOFF cock or valve of sufficient diameter to allow normal flow to drain adequately. The SHUTOFF cock or valve should only be shut when testing the float switch/alarm and fully opened on completion.
Sludge Tank a.
4.6.3
The provision of a common sludge tank for numerous separators may be considered, see Clause 3.8.
Operating Water Tank a.
An operating water tank, of suitable capacity for a selfcleaning centrifuge, is to be provided by the centrifuge manufacturer and installed by the shipbuilder. The location of the tank is to provide the centrifuge with the static head required.
b.
The tank is to be fitted with an air vent and a float controlled inlet valve to maintain the water level in the tank.
4.2
DEF STAN 02–323 / ISSUE 2 (NES 323)
4.7
4.8
Flexible Connections a.
Centrifuges are to be connected to associated service systems by flexible connections.
b.
Flexible hoses for bowl sealing and operating water supplies, where fitted direct to the centrifuge, are to be provided by the centrifuge manufacturer. All other flexible connections are to be supplied by the shipbuilder.
Pipework a.
Piping on centrifuges is to be ungalvanized mild steel. Sampling flanges are to be manufactured in the same material as the pipework to which they are connected.
b.
Discharge pipework is to include a length of clear material to enable visual inspection of discharged fluids whilst in operation.
4.9
Control and Instrumentation
4.9.1
Control a.
Each centrifuge is to be provided with an automatic safety device to prevent excessive loss of oil from any cause by stopping the centrifuge motor.
b.
If the automatic safety device is actuated by a signal from a pressure transducer in the centrifuge clean oil discharge, the centrifuge starter is to include an inhibit switch to allow the unit to be started.
c.
Where individual belts drive the centrifuge bowl and the supply pump; the drive motor control is to be arranged to stop the motor in the event of the bowl drive belt breaking.
d.
The centrifuge starter and control panel is to be located adjacent to the centrifuge to permit local starting and stopping. Arrangements are to be provided so that the centrifuge can be stopped from a remote position.
e.
If a separate motor driven supply pump is installed the separate starters of the pump and the centrifuge are to be interconnected: (1)
To ensure that the centrifuge cannot run when the supply pump is stopped;
(2)
So that the supply pump is stopped by the automatic safety device called for in Clause 4.9.1a;
(3)
To inhibit the automatic safety device both when starting the pump and centrifuge and when running the pump with the centrifuge stopped.
4.3
DEF STAN 02–323 / ISSUE 2 (NES 323)
4.9.2
Instrumentation a.
Centrifuges are to be provided with pressure indicators with sensing points in: (1)
The centrifuge oil inlet;
(2)
The clean oil discharge line.
b.
Centrifuges, with integral supply pumps, are also to be provided with a pressure/vacuum indicator with a sensing point in the inlet branch of the pump, where applicable.
c.
Pressure indicators are to be supplied with an isolating valve at each sensing point.
d.
Lubricating oil centrifuges are to be provided with a temperature indicator with a sensing point in the centrifuge supply from the heater. The pocket for the temperature indicator sensor is to be seal welded.
e.
Pressure and temperature indicators are to be mounted on a panel attached to the centrifuge and located so that the indicators are clearly visible from the operating position.
