                                               Electrically continuous hoses should not have a resistance higher
                                               than 0.75 ohms/metre measured between nipples (end flange to

                                 18.2.6.5      Withdrawal from Service
               งานห้องสมุด ศูนย์ฝกพาณิชย์นาวี
                                               In consultation with the hose manufacturer, retirement age should
                                               be defined for each hose type to determine when it should be
                                               removed from service, irrespective of meeting inspection and
                                               testing criteria.

                                               The temporary elongations at which smooth bore rubber hose
                                               assemblies should be withdrawn from service will vary with the
                                               type of hose assembly construction, such that either:

                                               a) The temporary elongation, when measured as in Section
                                                  18.2.6.3 above, should not exceed 1.5 times the temporary
                                                  elongation when the hose assembly was new.

                                                  For example:
                                                  Temporary elongation of new hose assembly: 4%
                                                  Temporary elongation at test:             6% maximum
                                                  or
                                               b) For hose assemblies where the temporary elongation of a
                                                                          ึ
                                                  new assembly was 2.5% or less, the temporary elongation at
                                                  the test should not be more than 2% more than that of the
                                                  new hose assembly.
                                                  For example:
                                                  Temporary elongation of new hose assembly: 1%
                                                  Temporary elongation of old hose assembly:  3% maximum.

                                 18.2.6.6      Explanation of Pressure Ratings for Hoses

                                               Figure 18.1 provides an illustration of the relationship between
                                               several definitions of pressure that are in common usage. The
                                               individual terms are briefly described below:

                                               Operating Pressure
                                               This is a common expression to define the normal pressure that
                                               would be experienced by the hose during cargo transfer. This
                                               would generally reflect the cargo pump operating pressures or
                                               hydrostatic pressure from a static system.

                                               Working Pressure
                                               This is generally considered to mean the same as ‘Operating
                                               Pressure’.

                                               Rated Working Pressure (RWP)
                                               This is the common oil industry reference that defines the
                                               maximum cargo system pressure capabilities. This pressure rating
                                               is not expected to account for dynamic surge pressures but does
                                               include nominal pressure variations as expected during cargo
                                               transfer operations.

                                               Maximum Working Pressure (MWP)
                                               This is the same as Rated Working Pressure and is used by BS
                                               and EN Standards for designing hoses to these standards.
