3. ASME B16.48 blinds must be certified to CSA Z245.12 PN 420 pressure ratings, otherwise design
and test pressures shall be limited as per ASME B16.5 flange ratings.
5. SMYS for BW fitting and flanges shall be equal to or greater than the SMYS of the pipe to which
they are attached.
7. Compression Fittings to be Swagelok. Ferrule and fitting hardness to be greater than tubing
hardness.
10. Refer to CSA Z662 for restrictions on threaded piping. Threaded piping is permitted only if H2S
content is less than 1% and H2S partial pressure is less than 35 kPa at operating pressure.
Threaded branch connections are permitted only if H2S partial pressure is less than 700 kPa at
operating pressure, and only for instrumentation, sampling, chemical injection, or maintenance
vents and drains.
13. Bore to match connected pipe schedule.
17. Maximum Hydro-test Pressure is the maximum upper limit for test pressure during testing.
Applicable only for pressure tests conducted below 38 C, and is subject to reduction based on
limitations of any valves, controls, equipment, and/or vessels connected to the piping system during
hydrotest.
19. Greasing or doping of flange seating surfaces is prohibited.
20. Thread sealant shall be used on all NPT connections. Combination use of pipe thread tape and
dope is prohibited.
21. Pipe nipples shall be between 50mm and 150mm in length, and shall be minimum S/XXH in cyclic
or vibrating service. Pipe sections longer than 150mm are not considered pipe nipples.
31. Threaded plugs 33mm and smaller to be heavy hex head. Hub flange plugs and 48 mm plugs to be
solid round head.
32. Strength and leak hydrotest to be conducted with water or water with anti-freeze chemical. Test
durations to be as noted below. Visual Leak Check to be conducted after Strength Test and before
reducing hydrotest pressure below the Minimum Leak Test Pressure. Tests shall be chart recorded.
