LPG truck loading facility design 3

[adt10]

I am working on design of a LPG (propane) truck loading facility for a refinery. Any tip regarding current best practices would be appreciated. I have reviewed API 2510, 2510A and 2003 and NFPA 58. Thanks.

adt10,

Many LPG loading stations use Blackmer or Corken pumps. Check for their recommended piping and recirculation configurations.

There are a number of emergency shutdown valve, back check valve, excess flow valves, and remote trip valves offered by Fisher Controls -Regulators Division, and also REGO Products -ECII. These valves help comply with functional requirements of NFPA 58.
These also desccribe the valves and fittings seen on transports.
