Practices by Discipline

This Practice provides requirements for use by a purchaser for determining the design criteria for double-pipe and multitube, and hairpin-type heat exchangers constructed in accordance with ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section VIII, Division 1 or Division 2, henceforth referred to as the Code. Most standardized, predesigned (off-the-shelf) double-pipe and multitube hairpin-type heat exchangers meet the requirements of this Practice.

This Practice provides guidelines for the field installation of process analyzer systems.

This Practice provides requirements for both shop and field fabricated piping and pipelines constructed in accordance with ASME B31.8, Gas Transmission and Distribution Piping Systems, (hereinafter referred to as the Code). Piping fabrication requirements are provided for materials, welding, forming, and heat treatment. Examination requirements are provided for piping materials, components, fabrication, assembly, and erection. Requirements for examination documentation are provided. Examination methods, acceptance criteria, and requirements for correction of defective work are also provided.

Scope The purpose of this Practice is to specify the requirements for design and manufacture of horizontal end suction centrifugal pumps. The requirements in this Practice are modifications, additions, and/or deletions (exceptions) to the requirements in ASME B73.1 - 2020. The section/paragraph numbers and the associated headings used in this Practice correspond to the ones used in ASME B73.1. Since this Practice does not take exception to all the requirements in ASME B73.1, the section/paragraph numbers in this Practice may not be sequential. Data sheets PIP RESP73 D and PIP RESP73-DM, appended, may be used to select options for ordering the pumps specified in this Practice. This practice is intended for chemical and hydrocarbon services and does not cover pumps sealed with packing. For general water services that fall out of the limitations of this practice use PIP RESP003H.
