Integral:- Integral flanges are those, which are cast along with the component or
equipment.
2. How can flanges be classified based on Pressure - temperature ratings?
Flanges are classified based on pressure temperature ratings as:A. 150 #
B. 300 #
C. 400 #
D. 600 #
E. 900 #
F. 1500 #
G. 2500 #
Pressure temperature rating charts in the standard ASME B16.5 specify the nonshock working gauge pressure to which the flange can be subjected to at a
particular temperature.
5. Where the smooth finish flange & serrated finish flange finds its use?
The smooth finish flange is provided when metallic gasket is provided and serrated
finish flange is provided when non-metallic gasket is provided.
B. Spiral (phonographic)
7. How the serration on flanges is specified?
The serration on flanges is specified by the number, which is the Arithmetic
Average Rough Height (AARH).
11. Which type of gasket is recommended for high temperature & highpressure application?
Spiral Wound Metallic Gasket.
12. What are the criteria for selection of MOC of spiral wound metallic
gasket winding material?
The selection of material of construction for gasket winding depends upon:A. The corrosive nature and concentration of fluid being carried.
B. The operating temperature of the fluid.
C. The relative cost of alternate winding material.
13. What are the most common materials used for spiral wound metallic
gasket winding?
The most commonly used material for spiral wound metallic gasket winding is:A. Austenitic stainless steel 304 with asbestos filler.
B. Austenitic stainless steel 316 with asbestos filler.
C. Austenitic stainless steel 321 with asbestos filler.
14. Which material is used as filler material for spiral wound gasket in
case of high temperature services?
For very high temperature services, graphite filler is used.
16. What will be the AARH finish on flange face for using spiral wound
gasket?
125-250 AARH finish.
