Pressure Systems Operating Standards |
I
|
|
|
The degree of hazard in pressure systems is proportional to the amount of energy stored, which is a function of both the pressure and the volume stored. As a result, low-pressure, high-volume systems can be as hazardous to personnel as high-pressure systems.
|
I
|
|
|
11.1.1. Only pressure systems that meet the design requirements of Volume 3 as tailored for each specific project (mission) shall be used.
|

|
|
|
11.1.2. The handling and storage of propellants shall be in accordance with NASA-STD 8719.12, Safety Standard for Explosive, Propellants, and Pyrotechnics; CPIA 394, Chemical Propulsion Information Agency-Hazards of Chemical Rockets and Propellants; and DoD 6055.9-STD and sub tier documents such as AFMAN 91-201 and NAVSEA OP 5, Ammunition and Explosives Ashore: Safety Regulations for Handling, Storing, Production, Renovation and Shipping.
|
C
|
|
|
11.1.3. Propellants shall be used and stored only in facilities designed and suited for that purpose and approved for specified time periods of use by the appropriate local safety authorities.
|
C
|
|
|
11.1.4. Propellants shall be used and stored only in systems that meet the design requirements of Volume 3, Chapter 11 and Chapter 12 and shall be approved by the appropriate local safety authorities.

|
|
|
11.1.5. Portable or mobile vessels and packaging used for transportation of pressurized or hazardous commodities shall be maintained and recertified in accordance with applicable Department of Transportation (DOT) CFR 49 regulations.
