1.0 GENERAL
14 SCOPE
This Standard supplements API Standard 673, “Centrifugal Fans for Petroleum,
Petrochemical and Natural Gas Services,” 2” Edition, dated January 2002 as
follows:
1. Defines minimum requirements for the design, material selection, inspection and
testing requirements of centrifugal fans, drivers, and accessories etc.,
purchased by the Buyer.
2. Defines additional requirements that supplement API Standard 673, 2” Edition.
3. Defines exceptions that can be taken to certain features permitted by API,
Standard 673, 2 Edition. U
Seller's bid shall outline all deviations and exceptions. Any deviation from this
standard requires prior express approval of the Buyer before the Seller proceeds with
the work. Buyer allows deviations only where the safety of the service is not
compromised and where the alternate design has potential for cost savings. Seller
shall outline details of such advantages as part of the proposal.
However, compliance with this Standard does not relieve the Seller of the
responsibility of providing proper design, mechanical reliability, and metallurgical
fitness of the product while meeting the operating conditions specified on the
datasheets.
The paragraph and section numbering of this Standard is the same as in API 673,
2" Edition while defining exceptions, options, or supplementary requirements.
‘Symbols and conventions used throughout this specification are defined as follows:
Abullet (+). A decision made where required by corresponding paragraph of
API-673
A delta (A) ‘An exception has been made to the corresponding paragraph of
‘API-673. The delta invalidates only those items in API-673 to
which an exception is taken and not necessarily the entire sub-
paragraph of API-673
