3.0 GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
3.1 Design Considerations
3.1.1 Unless otherwise noted in the specifications, all pressures and temperatures
referred to shall be considered Design Conditions. Design Conditions shall be as defined
in Doc. No....
3.1.2 Piping component wall thicknesses are based on pressure design thickness,
taking into account the specified corrosion allowance and any permitted manufacturer
under tolerance. Piping component wall thickness does not include additional thickness
that may be required to compensate for design considerations such as thermal loads
due to restraints, live loads, hydraulic shock, loads on underground pipe, or loads or
forces from other sources. Additional loads will need to be considered in the design of
piping systems.
3.1.3 Unless otherwise indicated in the specifications, piping components are specified
to be adequate for the full flange rating of the pressure class.
3.2 Line Class Notes
3.2.1 Each pipe specification contains specific numbered notes (in parenthesis) that
pertain to one individual component or to a group of components, as well as a list of
additional requirements that pertain to the entire specification.
3.2.2 Line class notes are provided in page 4 of this Standard. The information
contained in these notes shall be read and adhered to ensure compliance with the line
class specification.
3.3 Item Descriptions
3.3.1 The item descriptions on the individual line class are abbreviated, and may be
used for purchasing the item with the exception of Valves. Abbreviations are contained
in page 4 of this Standard.
3.2.2 The complete purchase description for Valves is contained in the Valve
specifications, and shall be followed to ensure compliance with the pipe specifications.
4.0 SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS
4.1 Pipe
4.1.1 Welded pipe shall not be substituted for seamless pipe. Seamless pipe may be
substituted for welded pipe in all services, sizes and materials.
4.1.2 Where "CALC" is specified for piping material wall thickness, the wall thickness
shall be calculated in accordance with the applicable ASME B31 Code.
4.1.3 Stainless steel, electric fusion welded (EFW) pipe (ASTM A 358) may be
substituted for ASTM A 312 EFW pipe for sizes 14 in. NPS and above.
4.1.4 Carbon steel seamless pipe, ASTM A 106B, may be substituted for ASTM A 53B,
Type S, and seamless pipe in all sizes.
4.1.5 Where joint factors are specified for pipe, these factors shall be taken as
minimum values. Use of pipe with joint factors in excess of these values is acceptable.
If pipe manufactured with a higher joint factor than listed on the specification is used,
the minimum joint factor listed on the specification shall be used when calculating wall
thicknesses of the pipe.
4.1.6 Double Submerged Arc Welded (DSAW) pipe shall be used for all EFW stainless
steel pipes. If DSAW pipe is not available, EFW pipe with a single butt joint having a
joint factor of 0.80 shall be used for 8 in. NPS and smaller.
4.2 Fittings
4.2.1 Welded fittings shall not be substituted for seamless fittings. Seamless fittings
may be substituted for welded fittings in all services, sizes and materials.
4.2.2 Dimensions of all fittings shall be in accordance with the industry standard
referenced on the individual specification.
4.2.3 Buttweld fittings shall have a wall thickness to match the wall thickness of the
adjoining pipe. Fittings of commercially available wall thickness shall be used even
though the fitting may have a slightly larger wall thickness than the adjoining pipe. The
ends of the fitting shall be taper bored if the thickness of the fittings exceeds that of the
pipe by more than 1/16 in. (1.6 mm). Taper boring shall not result in an infringement
on the minimum wall thickness.
4.2.4 Long radius elbows are required for all buttweld elbows. Short radius elbows
shall only be used with "Client" approval.
4.2.5 Use of Lokring Fittings
LOKRING fittings are generally recognized in the industry as a robust pressure
containing device that can be easily and quickly installed without a hot work permit.
These features can be highly attractive when considering the installation cost. However,
there is limited experience within "Client" on the overall long term performance for
these fittings, so the potential for long term reliability and maintenance issues must be
considered, such as inspection limitations and the potential for crevice corrosion, water
freeze damage and stress corrosion cracking due to the inherent crevice between
components and the high sealing stresses. For these reasons LOKRING fittings are
considered an acceptable alternative for use in pipe specifications provided all the
limitations described below have been met:
1. Must be approved for the intended service by the local jurisdiction or governing
body for pressure equipment. (Note: ASME B31 proof testing requirements have
been satisfied.)
2. The fittings are used in Category D (as defined in Doc. No...) or utility services as
follows:
Air, Water, Nitrogen (Outdoor Service Only) and Low pressure steam and
condensate service with a maximum design pressure of 200 PSIG.
3. The applicable pipe specification allows the use of Socket Weld construction for
the services described in item 2 above.
4. Installation shall be only for Carbon Steel piping systems up to 500F (260C) and
Stainless Steel piping systems up to 120F (49C).
5. Sizes up to and including 3 in. NPS.
6. Manufacturer trained and certified personnel must perform the installation
utilizing manufacturer approved tool kits and installation procedures. Consult
LOKRING for guidance: www.lokring.com.
7. These fittings shall not be installed in piping systems which historically have
shown susceptibility to crevice corrosion.
8. No installations shall be made in service applications with high pulsation or
vibration forces.
9. No installation in any piping systems that require post weld heat treatment.
10. Fittings shall be grit blasted and painted in accordance to Doc. No....
11. Fittings operating below 300F (149C) shall be sealed with a temperature
resistant silicone caulking to prevent the ingress of water.
12. After installation, perform 100% visual inspection to verify the NOGO gage
markings are indicating proper installation (marking partially covered), the fitting
body protrudes from underneath the swage ring, and remaining gaps are
acceptable per the LOKRING installation procedure.
4.3 Flanges
4.3.1 Dimensions and surface finishes of all flanges shall be in accordance with the
industry standard referenced on the individual specification.
4.3.2 Buttweld flanges shall have a wall thickness to match the wall thickness of the
adjoining pipe. Flanges of commercially available wall thickness shall be used even
though the flange may have a slightly larger wall thickness than the adjoining pipe. The
end of the flange shall be tapering bored if the thickness of the flange exceeds that of
the pipe by more than 1/16 in. (1.6 mm). Taper boring shall not result in an
infringement on the minimum wall thickness.
4.3.3 Orifice flanges shall be Class 300 minimum. Orifice flanges shall be ordered in
pairs and shall have Socketweld taps. Class 150 utility services, specifications PLC...
and PLC..., may use threaded orifice taps.
4.3.4 When mating to cast iron flat-face flanges is required, a carbon steel flat-face
flange with a full-face gasket shall be used. Full-face gasket material shall be
compatible with process stream and shall be in accordance with Doc. No...
requirements.
4.3.5 When mating to cast steel flat-face flanges is required; a raised-face flange shall
be used. The gasket shall be of a type and material that meets the requirements of the
piping specification.
4.3.6 Flanges installed in acid/caustic service (as defined in Doc. No...) or other
hazardous material shall be protected with a flange safety shield when a potential for
exposure to personnel and/or equipment exists.
4.4 Branch Connections
4.4.1 ASME B16.9 welding tees shall be used when branch connections are size on
size. Reducing tees shall be used when the branch run is one nominal size less than the
header run.
4.4.2 Except where indicated on the individual line classes, integrally reinforced branch
connections shall be used for branch runs NPS 8 and smaller.
4.4.3 Full area replacement shall be used for branch connections above NPS 8. The
reinforcing pad thickness shall equal the header thickness, and the reinforcing pad
width shall equal 1/2 the outside diameter of the branch. The material of the reinforcing
pad shall match the material of the header.
4.4.4 Reserved
4.4.5 If an economic incentive exists, the dimensions of the reinforcing pad may be
calculated in accordance with ASME B31.1 or ASME B31.3 as applicable. In this case,
"Client" shall approve dimensions of reinforcing pads.
