P11-THE NORMALLY DESIRABLE LOCATION OF RELIEF AND

BLOWDOWN HEADERS ELEVATED ABOVE PIPERACK IS
OVER THE PIPERACK COLUMNS.
P12-THE CENTERLINE TO CENTERLINE OF PIPERACK
COLUMNS SHALL BE 7600 WITH THE FOLLOWING
EXCEPTIONS:
P12.1-IF THE PREDOMINATE PORTION OF THE PIPING IN
THE RACK IS UNDER 3" (DN80) SEE TABLE-1 FOR
ALLOWABLE PIPE SPANS.
P12.2-ALUMINIUM OR OTHER SPECIAL MATERIALS CONSTITUTE THE MAJORITY.
P12.3-SPANS MAY BE SHORTENED SLIGHTLY TO MAKE
EVEN SPACING ACROSS A PLOT.
P12.4-SUPPORT SPACING SHALL BE INCREASED FOR
SINGLE OR MULTIPLE LINES 200 & LARGER.(SEE
TABLE-1 FOR ALLOWABLE PIPE SPANS.)
P12.5-SMALL LINES UNABLE TO SPAN THE NORMAL 7600
SPACING SHALL BE SUPPORTED BY INTERMEDIATE
PICK-UP.
P13-FOR LINE SPACING SEE DWG. IPS-D-PI-103.

P7- WHEN CONDENSATE REMOVAL IS REQUIRED IN UTILITY AIR OR STEAM HEADERS, DRIP OR BOOT LEGS
SHALL BE PROVIDED AT PIPING LOW POINTS OR
OTHER CONVENIENT LOCATIONS.
P8- GENERALLY, PIPERACK HEADER BRANCH CONNECTINS
FOR UTILITY & PROCESS GASES, AIR, STEAM, ETC.

HEADER LOW POINTS WHERE COND. MAY COLLECT.
P9- PIPERACK HEADER BRANCH CONNECTIONS FOR
