PIPE AND FITTINGS
operating temperature and pressure requirements
of the system. Thickness for pipe is indicated most
commonly by two standards. The American National Standards lnstitute (ANSI) classifies by
schedule numbers (Sch. 40, Sch. 80, etc.).
whereas the American Society of Mechanical
Engineers (ASME) and the American Society for
Testing and Materials (ASTM) uses the designations
"STD" (standard), "XS" (extra strong), and "XXS"
(double-extra strong)
Always subtract the pipe wallthickhess from the
OD to find the lD. Stronger pipe may have an lD less
than the NPS. Fol example, 8 in. schedule 8O pipe
has a wallthickness of .5OO in. The OD of 8 in. pipe
is 8.625 in. By subtracting one inch from 8.625
in., ure see that the lD is onty 7.625 in. This is a
good example of why "Nominal Pipe Size" {NPS}
is used.
Fittings are also classified according to pressure
rating (PSl). Common ratings for buttwelded fittings
and flanges are 15O# to 600#, and for screwed
steel 2OOO# to 6O0O#. The strength of pipe and
fittings is determined by the conditions (pressure,
temperature) under which it will be used.

aspects of each. One aspect of considerable impprtance to the drafter is the pipe break. So let's check
out the appearance of pipe . . . whole and broken.
The difference between socketwelding and buttwelding is that in SOCKETWELDING, the pipe is
inserted into a socket in the fitting and then welded.
ln BUTTWELDING, pipe and fittings are "butted"
together and then welded. Socketwelding is used
primarily on lines smaller than 2 in. when the
absence of leaks is critical. Socketwelded joints are
used on - but not restricted to - toxic, flammable, or radioactive materials.

VALVES
VALVES are used to turn something on or off.
They also can be adjusted to vary the rate of flow,
permit flow in one direction only, switch flow along
different routes, or discharge fluid from a system.
Fig. 3-2 shows the basic valve symbol used on piping drawings. Variations on this theme indicate the
special type of valve or the method of operation'

INSTRUMENTS
The dashboard of your automobile houses several
instruments similar to those used in industry. One
instrument measures the rate of movement, another
reads the oil pressure, and still another indicates the
temperature of the coolant. All of these variables
and more must be monitored in modern industrial
processes, and it must be done quickly and
accurately.

INSTRUMENT REPRESENTATION
. As stated earlier, instruments are seldom, if ever,
shown on a piping drawing. A symbol is used and
a connection fitting may be shown on the piping.
The symbol used is a circle, and it appears the same
on flow diagrams and piping drawings. Figs. 3-17
through 3-22 otfer a few examples of the ap-
pearance of instruments on flow diagrams and piping drawings. Note that the instrument itself is the
same on both. Take some time to study these examples and become familiar with the more commonly used instruments and how they are applied.

TANKS
TANKS are containers that come in a great variety
of shapes and sizes. They are used to store almost
everything. Tanks are not difficult to draw, but often
the attachments and embellishments are detailed.
Let's take a look at some characteristics of these
ponderous pieces of equipment.

the drafter after the tank has been designed. Complete in every detail, the drawing is sent to the tank

MISCELLANEOUS EOUTPMENT
Pumps and tanks are common to almost all
dustrial processes. However, the types of sp

dustry to another. Petroleum, petrochemical,
and paper, food processing, brewing, and
plants employ some of the following pieces

PIPING PLAN
Keep in mind that all companies possess standards that specify all of the drawing conventions
and techniques to be used by the drafter. Most firms
illustrate equipment with fairly universal symbols,
by, there always are exceptions. Therefore,
whenever you are drawing a new piece of equipment, always look to the standards for the correct
symbol or drawing method.

there are many equipment symbols that are common within certain industries. Basic shapes seldom
change, but company "A" may prefer to add a bit
fnore detail to a symbol that company "B." Refer
to Fig. 5-3 for a sampling of some flow diagram
equipment symbols. There are no universal sizes to
draw the equipment. Drawing layout, company
standards, and client preference will determine that.
There is one important point to remember when
laying out a flow diagram. Equipment sizes should
appear in proportion to one another. The example
shown in Fig. 5-4 is indicative of good symbol sizes.
- --:-
EOUIPMENT LABELING
LABELING should always be done last if you are
drawing manually. You will avoid smudging and excess erasing if you have to move slmbols or rearrange your layout. When you do label, it should
be done with care and forethought. lndiscriminate
labeling of equipment can result in a less-thanpleasing appearance on your drawing.
The best location to place a label is within the
symbol, slightly above center. See symbolA in Fig.
5-5. This may not be possible if there are other
details within the symbol. The illustrations in Fig.
5-5 indicate the preferred labeling sequence, with
A being the first choice. The placement of labels
also depends on the amount of space available.
EOUIPMENT NUMBERS
Each piece of equipment is assigned a number,
chosen by the engineering firm or by the client. The
EOUIPMENT NUMBERS are always placed on the
flow diagram with the label. See Fig. 5-4. fhe
drafter must be certain that these numbers appear
on the flow diagram. They will be used when constructing the piping drawings and will also appear
on equipment schedules.
