SOLUTIONS 100% CORRECT!!!
Question 1
What do the following common fuel gas acronyms stand for?
SCF: Standard Cubic Foot
LPG: Liquefied Petroleum Gas
CNG: Compressed Natural Gas
Question 2
According to Fire Code, a Certificate of Fitness is required for connecting and
disconnecting containers meeting or exceeding what capacities for LPG and CNG?
Answer:
o LPG Containers: Capacity equal to or greater than 16.4 oz
o CNG Containers: Capacity greater than 8.7 SCF
Question 3
What is a Site-Specific Permit, and what activities does it authorize?
Answer: A permit that authorizes the permit holder to store, handle, or use
LPG/CNG, or conduct specific operations (such as manhole operations, tar
kettles/asphalt melters, or powered industrial forklifts) at a designated
premises or location
-A site-specific permit may be a permanent permit or a temporary permit.
-Permanent permits are valid for 12 months only. Every permit or renewal shall
require an inspection and shall expire after TWELVE months.
-Temporary permit may be valid from one day to 12 months depends on the
construction/operation need. For example, a one-week temporary permit may be
issued to a construction work which only takes one week; a one-day temporary
permit may be issued to a street fair event.
City wide permits
-A city-wide permit is valid up to 30 days and all LPG/CNG containers must be
removed from the site at the end of each workday.
-A new application must be submitted if a single job will last more than 30 days.
,Asphalt Melter
-An approved device designed to heat asphalt, typically for waterproofing
operations, that, utilizing a flammable gas or a combustible liquid, generates an
enclosed flame that indirectly heats a vessel containing the asphalt.
COMPRESSED GAS
-A material, or mixture of materials, that is a gas at 68°F or less at 14.7 psia of
pressure; and has a boiling point of 68:F or less at 14.7 psia that is either liquefied,
nonliquefied or in solution at that temperature and pressure, except that gases
which have no other health- or physical-hazard properties are not considered to be
compressed until the pressure in the packaging exceeds 41 psia at 68°F.
Compressed gases shall be classified as follows:
-Nonliquefied compressed gases. Gases, other than those in solution, that are in
apackaging under the charged pressure and are entirely gaseous at a temperature of
68°F. Liquefied compressed gases. Gases that, in a packaging under the charged
pressure, are partially liquid at a temperature of 68°F.Compressed gases in
solution. Nonliquefied gases that are dissolved in a solvent. Compressed gas
mixtures. A mixture of two or more compressed gases contained in a single
packaging, the hazard properties of which are represented by the properties of the
mixture as a whole.
Electric Barbecue
-Any device designed for heating or cooking food on an open grate cooking
surface above exposed heating elements. An electric grill that has its heating
elements embedded within a solid cooking surface is not an electric barbecue.
Flammable Gas
-A material which has a boiling point and becomes a gas at 68°F (20°C) or less at
14.7 pounds per square inch absolute (psia) (101 kPa) of pressure which:
1. Is ignitable at 14.7 psia (101 kPa) when in a mixture of 13 percent or less by
volume with air, in accordance with testing procedures set forth in ASTM E 681;
or
, 2. Has a flammable range at 14.7 psia (101 kPa) with air of at least 12 percent,
regardless of the lower explosive limit, in accordance with testing procedures set
forth in ASTM E 681.
General Supervison
-Supervision by the holder of any FDNY certificate who is responsible for
performing the duties of the Certificate of Fitness holder but need not be personally
present on the premises at all times.
LPG Definition
-A material which is composed predominantly of the following hydrocarbons or
mixtures of them: propane, propylene, butane (normal butane or isobutane) and
butylenes. Methylacetylene-propadiene mixtures (MAPP-gas) shall be deemed to
be an LPG.
Open Fires
-The burning of materials wherein products of combustion are emitted directly into
the ambient air without passing through a stack or chimney from an enclosed
chamber.
-For the purpose of this definition, a chamber shall be regarded as enclosed when,
during the time combustion occurs, only apertures, ducts, stacks, flues or chimneys
necessary to provide combustion air and permit the escape of exhaust gas are open.
Open Flame
-A flame that is generated by any material or device in a sustained and controlled
manner and that is not securely enclosed by noncombustible material, such as a
candle that is unenclosed or enclosed in a globe or lantern, or a gas light lantern,
but not a flame contained in a furnace or other similar approved device, equipment
or system.
-Torches operated in accordance with FC Chapter 26 and lighted smoking
paraphernalia shall not be considered an open flame.
