API 560

API 560

(OP)
I am developing a specification for a waste heat recovery unit (fined tube heat exchanger system) for a gas turbine exhaust. I was thinking of using API 560 as a basis for this specification. API 560 is intended for direct fired units in refineries but this application is neither a direct fired application or in a refinery. I suspect that the bidders could feel that specifying API 560 for this application is too conversative. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? Comments would be appreciated.

  

RE: API 560

I'd contact the bidders and get their input ahead of time.  I would think one question is if there is any other standard dealing with the product.
