Notes..

 02 - Pipe Bending shall be used ONLY where specified on the drawings or where
approved in writing by the EWP project engineer.
 03 - Specify WN flanges adjacent to welded fittings and/or Butterfly Valves as
alternates only.
 05 - Threaded joints are permitted only at terminal of vent, drain, and hydrostatic
test connections, and at instrument take-off points, and to match equipment.
 06 - EWP's TED site preference, class 2000 threaded FS fittings are made only in
45° and 90° elbows, tees, and crosses. The class 2000 fittings are rated same as
sch XS/80 (max) threaded pipe. Class 3000 fittings found in existing lines may be
replaced by class 2000.
 14 - Line blinds, spacers, restricting orifices, and spectacle blinds shall be per
Standard Details Doc. No...01 thru 04.
  18 - Conical Strainer to be used as temporary start-up strainer at pumps.
 20 - Thread sealant to be used on all thread joints except if seal welding is used.
Refer to Specification Doc. No....
 22 - These Valves have no flanges but are installed between line flanges with
extra length bolts.
 23 - Cast Valves used in "critical service" or "very critical" service should be
considered for radiographic inspection.
 24 - BW gate or globe is for alternate use.
 25 - Reducing fittings that have ends of different thickness must show thickness
(e.g., Conc. Red - SCH XS x SCH STD).
 31 - Butterfly Valves NPS 6 and smaller w/ handle; NPS 8 and larger w/ gear
operator. Do not use above 177°C service.
 32 - Intended for orifice taps only.
 33 - Doc. No... for slurry service.
 34 - Valves with PTFE may be chosen for use in the OXO reactor loop piping.
 35 - Valve Index 180 is alternate for 180K.
 36 - May be used for Relief Valve changeover.

 P = Reinforcing pad with minimum thickness equal to header thickness, and
width equal to 1/2 of the branch nominal pipe size. Drill 1/8" (3mm) diameter hole
in each pad section for venting (a weld gap is acceptable as a means of venting).
