Hi experts,
The over tolerance of IOGP S-614 and TEMA RCB-4.2 shall be considered into the basic hole diameter of the baffle plate for HTRI analysis. The machining finishing/drill tolerance by CNC shall be as per GENERAL TOLERANCE DIN ISO 2768-mk if there is not surface finishing tolerance shown in the hole diameter. The surface finishing tolerance may not consider into HTRI analysis. We should not confuse the over tolerance in RCB-4.2 or IOGP with the surface finishing tolerance which limit by the accuracy what machining method used.
For example,
1. AS per TEMA standard TEMA RCB-4.2, the tube OD is 19.05 mm, the over tolerance is 0.4 mm (not pulsating conditions). So, the hole diameter on the baffle plate shall be 19.45 mm.
TEMA Standard RCB-4.2: Where the unsupported tube length exceeds 36 in. (914 mm) for tubes 1-114 in. (31.8 mm) diameter and smaller, standard tube holes are to be 1/64 inch (0.4 mm) over the OD of the tubes.
2. As per IOGP S-614 clause 7.5.3.5 "The standard tube hole diameter in the baffle and support plates shall be +0.4 mm (1/64 in.) over the outside diameter of the tubes. Tube hole tolerance shall be in accordance with TEMA RCB-4.2".
So, the hole diameter shall be 19.05+0.4+ 4 mm of the over tolerance of RCB-4.2 =19.45+0.4=19.85 mm.
3. To avoid confusing, the tolerance of RCB-4.2 and IOGP shall convert to the basic diameter in the drawing, not the finishing tolerance format as +/_0.0xx because the drawing is for machining. The machining tolerance shall comply with the applicable machning industry standards, not TEMA/IOGP.
4. How to understand so big different for hole diameter between TEMA and IOGP S-614?
