1.1

Scope
This engineering standard establishes minimum requirements for the design, construction and installation of burner management systems (BMS) for the gas fired equipment in sulfur recovery unit (SRU) trains. SRU trains have typically 5 independently fired furnaces. The BMS system for each fired furnace is defined herein. Emphasis is placed on the use of a reliable Burner Management System (BMS), incorporating flame monitoring, safety interlocks, light-off and purge permissives, and alarms and trip functions as defined in NFPA 85. Requirements of NFPA 85 shall be applied to the BMS systems used on SRU trains. However, conflicting requirements specified in this standard shall take precedence over NFPA 85. A BMS is considered a specific type of Emergency Shutdown System (ESD). As such, all requirements of JERES-J-601 apply to this standard, except as noted herein. The BMS requirements specified in this standard are considered prescriptive and the application of ANSI/ISA-84.00.01-2004 (IEC 61511 Mod), including establishment and validation of SIL levels, is not required. This standard specifies the minimum BMS requirements for new SRU projects. BMS upgrade projects to existing SRU trains may reduce the minimum requirements of this standard to maintain consistency with other SRU units, when approved by the Saudi Aramco Proponent Organization.

Definitions
Definitions presented in this Standard and other JER documents have precedence over other definitions. Conflicts between various definitions shall be brought to the attention of Company Representative by the Contractor for resolution. Company: Jubail Export Refinery. Company Representative: A designated person from the Company or an assigned third party representative. Company Inspector: A designated person or an agency responsible for conducting inspection activities on behalf of the Company.

4.2

List of Definitions Automatic BMS Operation: The Saudi Aramco mandatory method of BMS operation in which pushbutton actuations initiate furnace start-up, and where all purging, positioning, timing, and fuel/air valve manipulations are supervised and occur automatically. In Automatic BMS logic, operators are not required to manipulate burner front controls (e.g., manually open gas cocks) to light burners or pilots. Instead, burner and pilot starts are actuated from pushbuttons and monitored locally and remotely. Saudi Aramco requires the operator to manually initiate (via pushbutton) each of the following sequences: Furnace Master Fuel Trip (MFT) reset Purge Initial pilot/burner start (local operator function) Subsequent pilot/burner starts and stops Normal shutdown

Burner Valve (BV): A burner valve (BV) can be either an automated block valve or an automated bleed valve as defined below. BVs shall be selected as ZV valves per JERES-J-601; however, BVs shall not be provided with manual operators, local pushbutton operators, bypass valves, or partial stroke testing features. BVs are under complete control and supervision of the BMS system. Automated Bleed Valve - BV: This is an automatic valve used to vent fuel gas from between block BVs in both the pilot and burner fuel headers. Bleed valves shall be tagged as 'BV', and are not to be tagged as ZV.

Automated Block Valve - BV: Sometimes called block valve, fuel shutdown valve, or SSV valve. The block valve is an automatic, fast closing, tight shutoff valve that completely shuts off fuel or air supply. These valves are located in the pilot and burner fuel headers and in the individual pilot and burner piping. Block valves can be used in conjunction with Bleed valves for gas service. Block valves shall be tagged as 'BV' and are not to be tagged as ZV. Burner Management System (BMS): The BMS is the control system dedicated to furnace safety and provides operator assistance in the starting and stopping of fuel preparation and burning equipment. Use of a BMS prevents misoperation of and damage to fuel preparation and burning equipment. The BMS includes the following subsystems: Logic System Field Sensors Pilot System Flame Monitoring System Automated Block and Bleed Valves Local Flame Safety Shutdown Panel Control Room Indication and Control Equipment

Master Fuel Trip: Sometimes called main fuel trip or MFT; an event that results in the rapid shutoff of all fuel to a furnace. Sulfur Recovery Unit (SRU) Fired Equipment: SRUs may have the following fired equipment: Air Preheater A natural draft, fuel gas fired furnace that preheats combustion air to be used in the SRU Reaction Furnace. This furnace typically uses up to 10 burners and incorporates continuous pilots. Pilots and burners are individually supervised, each with its own flame monitor. Pilots are lit via integrated spark ignitors. Firebox purging is via steam injection. Acid Gas Preheater A natural draft, fuel gas fired furnace that preheats H2S acid gas before it is combusted in the SRU Reaction Furnace. This furnace typically uses up to 14 burners with continuous pilots. Pilots and burners are individually supervised, each with its own flame monitor. Pilots are lit via integrated spark ignitors. Firebox purging is via steam injection. Reaction Furnace - A forced draft reaction furnace with one burner (typically no pilot) where acid gas is the fuel and is burned with air to form SO2 and

sulfur. This furnace will also be equipped with a forced draft fuel gas fired burner that starts and supplements the H2S burning. The fuel gas burner flame is lit by an automatically retracting spark ignitor. The burner flame is supervised with dual optical flame monitors. Purging on cold start is by combustion air flow, but on hot re-start, purge is via nitrogen to prevent reactor cool-down and free oxygen ingress to the downstream catalyst beds. Catalytic Reheat-Auxiliary Combustion Chamber/Burner When used, the auxiliary combustion chamber uses a single forced draft, fuel gas or fuel gas/acid gas fired burner to reheat the process stream above the liquid sulfur dewpoint prior to entering the next catalytic conversion stage. This burner is supervised with dual flame monitors and is lit by an automatically retracting spark ignitor (typically no pilot). There are up to 3 independent Catalytic Reheat Auxiliary Combustion Chamber/Burners per Reaction Furnace. Purge is via forced draft combustion airflow. Tail Gas Thermal Oxidizer A natural or forced draft, fuel gas fired furnace that combusts the SRU tail gas to form SO2 and release to atmosphere. The Thermal Oxidizer uses multiple burners with continuous pilots. Pilots and burners are individually supervised, each with their own flame monitor. Pilots are lit via integrated spark ignitors. Firebox purging is via steam injection or air in the forced draft configuration.
