C. Flange bolt torque values shall be per gasket manufacturer recommendation not to exceed 75%
of bolt allowable yield strength as defined in the applicable ASTM standard and using appropriate
bolt torque patterns as shown in ASME PCC-1-2010, Appendix F.
3.7 LABELING AND IDENTIFICATION
A. Install identifying labels and devices for piping, valves, and specialties. Label piping system in
accordance with Section 220553, Identification for Plumbing Piping and Equipment.
3.8 FIELD QUALITY CONTROL
A. Testing Agency: Buyer will engage qualified testing agency to perform field tests and
inspections of piping and prepare test reports.
B. Perform field tests and inspections of piping and prepare test reports.
C. Tests and Inspections:
1. Piping Testing Coordination: Perform tests, inspections, verifications, and certification
of piping systems concurrently with tests, inspections, and certification of interfacing
systems.
2. Inspect Pressure or flow regulators for proper operation.
3. Preparation: Perform the following Installer tests:
a. Initial blow down.
b. Initial pressure test.
c. Hydrostatic test for positive pressure piping.
4. Perform the following tests on IXM piping:
a. Use ambient temperature water as a testing medium unless there is risk of damage
due to freezing. Another liquid that is safe for workers and compatible with piping
may be used.
b. While filling system, use vents installed at high points of system to release air.
Use drains installed at low points for complete draining of test liquid.
c. Isolate any tanks and determine that the IXM system is full of water.
d. Subject piping system to hydrostatic test pressure that is not less than 1.5 times the
system's working pressure. Test pressure shall not exceed maximum pressure for
any vessel, pump, valve, or other component in system under test. Hydrostatic test
