Note on safety valve outlet line going to atmosphere (End to be chamber 45

downwards )
for wafer type butter fly valve/wafer type check valve, special (extra) length
through bolts to be used
For commissioning Temp, strainers not to be included in the MTO list (i.e Temp,
presu, strainer supplied by commissioning contractor)
anubar type flow transmitter in the isometrics as per instrumentation
recommendation only hole to be provided on the pipe and orientation has to be
mentioned
revisions comes in the isometrics properly clouded the particular portion & put
revision symbol
Process vent/ drains, Hydro test vent & drains for modeling Lucite standards to be
followed
IFC issue back drafting level after updating of all comments designer to take iso
print out and through the isos , all previous items are properly appearing in the
isometrics drawing
(a) Pipe supports to be moved through MDS only. Not by using move commands
(b) dont use out spec. comments
branch connection to be checked with the branch table
For all valves normally (by default) reduced bore ball valves are used. if full bore
ball valve are mentioned in P&ID
for ductile & malliable iron double flanged type butterfly valves flat face flanges
to be used
wherever mono flange used for INST. Tapping extra bolt length to be used as per
INST. Recommendation
wherever extended spindle valves in the isometrics, spindle length to be indicate
in the isometrics
wherever chain operated valves isometrics chain length to be indicated in
isometrics
standards colors codes for checking isometrics;
Yellow for correction
Red for addition
Blue for deleted items
Green for information
the MTO column fabrication/ erection split-up to be properly checked
comments from stress /supports/inst/ MTO to be properly checked
for line size 1 & < 1 field supports to suit at site ( notes has to be
indicate )
valves special notes : LO-LC lock open/lock closed to be marked in iso
for small bore particular piping add note : contractor and FW construction shall
verify route and modify as necessary to suit site condition ( refer doc)
fluid codes: WCS /WCR , RF, WD, WP,AI,AS,AN,GN,AM
note for actuated valve size 1 and below as actuated valves are heavy,
adequate supports shall be placed either side off the valves close vicinity
safety valves inlet line extra bolt length has to provide
