GB/T 12145-2016 is the English-translated version of 火力发电机组及蒸汽动力设备水汽质量.
GB/T 12145-2016 is the Chinese national standard on quality criterion of water and steam for power plant and steam-generating equipment, in the field of energy and heat transfer engineering. The /T suffix marks it as a recommended standard: it is not compulsory by itself, but it becomes binding as soon as a contract, a tender or a customer specification calls it up - which in practice is how most foreign buyers meet it. It was issued on 24 February 2016 by the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine of the People's Republic of China; Standardization Administration of China, and has been in force since 1 September 2016. Classification: ICS 27.060.30, CCS J98. This page is published from the official record of the standard held by the Chinese standards administration: the identification, the dates, the classification and the issuing body are taken from there. The clause text, the tables and the numeric limits are in the document itself, which is delivered complete in English translation.

Foreword
This standard is drafted in accordance with the rules given in GB/T 1.1-2009. This standard replaces GB/T 12145-2008 "Quality criterion of water and steam for power plant and steam-generating equipment". As compared with GB/T 12145-2008, the main technical changes, except the editorial modification, are as follows: - MODIFY terms and definitions; - MODIFY steam quality indicators; - MODIFY boiler feed water quality indicators; - MODIFY condensate quality indicators; - MODIFY boiler water quality indicators; - MODIFY makeup water quality indicators; - MODIFY quality criterion of dewatering and production backwater; - MODIFY cooling water quality indicators for water-cooled generators. This standard was proposed by AND shall be under the jurisdiction of the China Electricity Council. The drafting organizations of this standard. Xi'an Thermal Power Research Institute Co., Ltd., State Grid Henan Electric Power Company Electric Power Research Institute. The main drafters of this standard. Cao Jieyu, Sun Benda, Ke Yujin, Wu Wenlong. This Standard replaces the standard previously issued as follows: - GB/T 12145-1989, GB/T 12145-1999, GB/T 12145-2008.

1 Scope
GB/T 12145-2016 is the Chinese national standard on quality criterion of water and steam for power plant and steam-generating equipment, in the field of energy and heat transfer engineering. The /T suffix marks it as a recommended standard: it is not compulsory by itself, but it becomes binding as soon as a contract, a tender or a customer specification calls it up - which in practice is how most foreign buyers meet it. It was issued on 24 February 2016 by the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine of the People's Republic of China; Standardization Administration of China, and has been in force since 1 September 2016.

The clause text, the tables and the numeric limits are in the document itself, which is delivered complete in English translation.
This standard specifies the water and steam quality for power plant and steam- generating equipment in the normal operation and startup of the shutdown (standby) unit. This standard applies to the power plant and steam-generating equipment for which the boiler main steam pressure is not less than
3.8 MPa (gauge pressure).
