Study Notes
- The text discusses registration requirements for various fittings used in piping systems, including pipe fittings, expansion joints, hose assemblies, measuring devices, pressure relief devices, and valves.
- Registration is necessary to ensure the quality and suitability of fittings for pressure service. The supplier of the fittings must provide registration material for every item purchased and installed.
- Most jurisdictions prohibit the use of non-registered fittings in pressure service.
- Different types of fittings have specific requirements for their markings to ensure proper identification and suitability for the specific service.
- Power engineers must consult the correct ASME codes when pressure components are to be replaced or repaired to ensure proper design and fabrication methods.
- ASME BPVC I and B31.1 cover high-pressure plant piping installations, while ASME BPVC IV, ASME BPVC VII, and ASME B31.9 cover low-pressure plant piping installations.
- ASME BPVC I and ASME B31.1 divide high-pressure plant piping into three categories: boiler proper piping, boiler external piping, and nonboiler external piping.
- When existing piping systems need repairs or new piping systems are installed, designers, installers, and repair agencies must follow the correct code to ensure safety and durability.
- ASME BPVC I has jurisdiction over the materials, design, fabrication, installation, and testing of boiler proper piping, while ASME B31.1 covers boiler external piping and nonboiler external piping.
- ASME B31.1 has technical jurisdiction over the design and fabrication rules for boiler external piping, including steam piping, feedwater piping, blowoff piping, blowdown piping, and installed valves and fittings.
