1.1. Scope
This document specifies the minimum requirements governing the supply of
all piping components, whether supplied as bulk materials or as part of an
equipment package unit. It forms an integral part of any Enquiry, Material
Requisition or Purchase Order package for piping components and shall be
read in conjunction with the documentation referenced therein.
1.2.
Order of Precedence
Any conflict between any requirements specified in this document and the
requirements of any other relevant referenced document shall be resolved in
the following order of preference:
1.3.
The Stock Code Description (or item number description) in the Enquiry,
Material Requisition or Purchase Order.
This Specification;
Other Project Specifications.
Referenced Codes and Standards.
Codes and Standards

All piping components shall conform to the requirements of ASME B31.3 and
the relevant referenced Codes, Standards and Specifications, listed in
Appendix I.
Other Codes or Standards may be specifically referenced in a Stock Code
Description (Material Requisition Item Number Description). In these cases,
the requirements of the Code or Standard so referenced take precedence
over any conflicting requirements of ASME B31.3 or any relevant Code or
Standard referenced therein.
1.4.
Exceptions to Specified Requirements

Exceptions to the specified requirements of the enquiry package will only be
considered by the BUYER on a case by case basis for equipment or materials
procured within the State of India, provided that the equipment or the
materials comply with applicable Indian codes and standards.
Units of Measurement
Metric (SI) units of measurement shall be used throughout in accordance with
project specification 25194-3PS-GA-001 with the following exceptions:
a)
Inches and decimal fractions shall be used for wall thickness for piping
components. These shall, however, be expressed first as the Schedule
Number (e.g., Schedule 40). For a thickness that does not correspond to
a Schedule Number, Extra Strong (XS) or Double Extra Strong (XXS)
shall be used. Where a thickness does not correspond to either of these
designations, inches and decimal fractions to 3 decimal places shall be
used (e.g., 1.312" WT).
25194-3PS-PL-004 Rev.1
Page 3 of 60

b) Nominal pipe sizes (NPS), bolt lengths and diameters shall be expressed
in inches.
c)
Nominal pressure ratings for flanges, valves, socket weld and threaded
fittings, etc., are expressed in pounds (e.g., 150 lb, 300 lb, etc.). Where
metric (SI) nominal pressure rating designations are used (i.e., PN), the
relationship shall be as follows:
PN20
= 150 lb
PN50
= 300 lb
PN68
= 400 lb
PN100
= 600 lb
PN150
= 900 lb
PN250
= 1500 lb
PN420
= 2500 lb
There is no listed equivalent for 3000 lb, 6000 lb and 9000 lb ratings.
1.5.
General Requirements
All material shall be new and unused and shall be free of detrimental foreign
matter.
Pipe, gaskets and studbolts shall be colour coded in accordance with Project
Specification 25194-3PS-PL-005.
Piping components within packaged equipment shall comply with the
applicable Piping Classes in Project Specification 25194-3PS-PL-001.
SELLERs supplying packaged equipment shall identify in their quotation, any
piping within the packaged equipment which does not comply with project
specification 25194-3PS-PL-001 and shall include enough details regarding
the material composition of those components, and the services for which
they are intended, to enable BUYER to judge their suitability for the intended
service.
Nominal pipe sizes 1/4", 3/8", 1-1/4", 2-1/2", 3-1/2", 5" and 22" shall
not be used except to match manufacturers equipment connections or existing
piping. These sizes shall not be used in packaged equipment without the prior
written approval of BUYER at the enquiry stage and shall not, in any case, be
used for terminal connections for mating piping. Where the use of one of
these sizes is necessary to match an equipment or existing connection, a
reducer shall be employed immediately to increase to the next larger
acceptable nominal pipe size.
Flange gasket contact surface finish is quoted in individual purchase

descriptions and is judged in accordance with ASME B46.1
Asbestos Products are not accepted and must be replaced with a non
asbestos material.

Requirements for Valves in Low Temperature and Cryogenic Service
1.
General
1.1
All low temperature carbon steel valves shall be suitable for continuous
operation at minus 45C and for operation at any temperature between
minus 45C and plus 110C.
1.2
All stainless steel valves, specified to have extended bonnets for low
temperature service, shall be suitable for continuous operation at minus
185C and for operation at any temperature between values quoted in valve
long description.
1.3
All stainless steel gate, globe, butterfly and ball valves, specified to have
extended bonnets for low temperature service, shall have extended bonnets,
stems, etc., of such a design that removes the packing gland (stem seals,
etc.) from the cryogenic zone to ensure easy operability at the lowest design
temperature. The Minimum length of bonnet extension shall be 250mm, and
shall be integral or welded to the body. A flanged bolted on extension is not
acceptable.
1.4
The test for operability to determine the need for a gear operator, i.e. values
that require a torque of 271 Nm or more to open or close against the
maximum differential pressure for which the value is designed, shall be
conducted at the lowest design temperature (minus 130C) for all low
temperature service stainless steel valves.
1.5
Valves shall be designed to relieve pressures above normal working

pressure that may build up in body cavities due to the thermal expansion or
evaporation of entrapped liquids or gases. For gate and ball valves, this
requirement will normally be met by the provision of a drilled hole in the gate
wedge to connect the body cavity with the upstream side of the valve or
through the centre of one side of the ball, 90 from the through port.
As the provision of this feature will make these valves unidirectional in
operation, the flow direction shall be clearly indicated either on and integral
with the body of the valve or on a plate securely attached to the body of the
valve.
SELLERs drawings for these valves shall clearly detail these features and
shall state the diameter of the cavity relief hole.

All initial castings and randomly selected castings shall be dimensionally
checked to ensure compliance with the minimum wall thickness specified and
the overall dimensions.
3.8
Submittal of NDE Procedures

For quality standard A & B, NDT procedures shall be submitted for review.
4.
Repair Procedures
4.1 The repair of any defect found on castings by plugging, peening, use of
plaster or cement compounds, or impregnation by plastic materials or similar
compounds is prohibited. Repairs to the pressure boundary shall be by
welding only. However, any repair work may only be carried out at the
discretion of the Purchaser.
4.2 Major repairs are defined as those that require removal of 20% of the
casting wall thickness or 25 mm which ever is less or those that result in a
repair area that exceeds 6,500 mm2. For quality standard A & B, major weld
repair procedures shall be submitted for approval.
4.3 All repairs by welding shall be made by procedures/welders in
accordance with ASTM A488. The analysis of the deposited weld metal shall
conform to the nominal analysis of the parent casting.
4.4 After major weld repair all castings shall be heat treated or stress
relieved as required by the casting specification, however, the Buyer reserves
the right to specify solution heat treatment for repairs to austenitic stainless
steel where considered applicable for process or environmental reasons.
4.5 All weld repairs shall be re-examined by appropriate methods and as
defined in Section 3.0.
