• Description: A short description of the event

• Virtual station: Virtual station ID

PFExport__<Tool name>_<Time stamp>_Results.csv

A semicolon-separated file containing the following information:

• Tower Data: flange identity in batch assembly or batch service job.

• Program ID

• Bolt size

• Date and time: A time stamp of when the result occurred

• Operator ID

• Operator Data

• Operator Company

• Software version: The software version on the controller running when the bolts are tensioned.

• Tensioner Custom Identifier: Optional, set by the customer and stored in the tensioner.

• Pump Custom identifier: Optional, set by the customer and stored in the pump.

• Tensioner type: Fetched from production data in the tensioner.

• Bolt Quantity: The number of bolts on the flange, entered by the operater when starting a batch job.

• Bolt Data

• Nut loosening min loosening angle: multistage step configuration of type step tensioning service parameter. Only populated when the results relates to a bolt service operation.

• Estimated initial mean settlement (kN): Term for clamping force estimation.

• Estimated initial max settlement (kN): Only written to report directly from configuration.

• Min required average clamping force (kN): Term for evaluation of the average clamping force for the full flange result.

• Clamping Force Method Used:

  Estimation: Residual force is estimated using Estimated initial mean settlement.

  Calculation: Residual force is calculated using Clamping length and the Load transfer factor equation.

• Bolt number

• Status: End result of the tensioning, status OK or NOK.

• Tensioning Attempt Number: The attempt number incrementing when a bolt fails and is re-tensioned.

• Assembling Position: Same as bolt number.

• Pressure (bar): The pressure when the nut was tightened, i.e. when the conditions for acknowledged torque are met.

• Force (kN): The force when the nut was tightened, i.e. when the conditions for acknowledged torque are met.

• Angle: The resulting angle of the tightening of the nut.

• Torque: The torque applied when the conditions for torque are met.

• Residual Force (kN): Estimation of residual force calculated as Applied Pressure -Estimated mean settlement.

• Min Residual Force (kN): The minimum residual force of the bolt based on configuration field Estimated initial max settlement.

• Re-tighten Angle (deg): During bolt service, the total angle the nut rotated from its original position.

• Loosening Angle (deg): During bolt service, the angle the nut is loosened.

• Loosening Torque (Nm): The applied torque when the first nut loosening movement was recorded.

• Loosening Pressure (bar): The hydraulic pressure when the first nut loosening movement was recorded.

• Loosening Force (kN): The force that corresponds to the loosening pressure.

• Backlash Angle (deg): The mechanical play in the tensioner mechanics and socket-nut alignment between nut loosening and nut tightening.

• Pump Serial Number

• Pump Ordering Number

• Tensioner Serial Number

• Tensioner Ordering Number
