Coal Pulverizers

This standard is being maintained under Stabilized Maintenance. Stabilized maintenance is an option for maintenance of a standard that requires status review every 10 years rather than revision or reaffirmation every 5 years. The Standards Committee shall consider all requests and recommendations for change to standards maintained under the stabilized maintenance option from any materially affected and interested party. The request shall be made in writing and should include the rationale for the particular request in order to facilitate review by the Committee.

The purpose of this code is to establish procedures for conducting performance tests to determine: Capacity, Fineness of product, Raw coal feed, Grindability, Moisture, Sizing, Power consumption and Effect of changes in raw coal Characteristics on product fineness, pulverizer capacity, and power consumption. Effect of changes in pulverizer component settings on product fineness, pulverizer capacity, and power consumption. This Code applies to the pulverizing system as a whole, including all the component parts necessary to take the raw coal, hot air and tempering air at the system inlet, and deliver pulverized coal in proper mixture with air and/or flue gas at the desired temperature at the outlet of the system.
