The document provides an overview of piping systems, including definitions of key piping terms like pipe and tube. It explains piping drawings like Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams (P&IDs) and Piping Flow Diagrams (PFDs), which are used to represent piping systems. It also discusses piping specifications, which specify the appropriate materials for pipes and components for a given service, and are unique to each plant or site. Sample excerpts from a P&ID and piping specification index are included to illustrate these concepts.

Piping Specifications & Flow Diagrams What is a pipe?
A pipe is a tube used to convey water, gas, oil, or
other fluid substances. Tubes are different from pipes as they are designated by their BWG No. (Birmingham Wire Gauge) A pipe is designated by its NPS (Nominal Pipe Size) and Schedule They usually come in single random (12.5) or double random lengths (25) Understanding Piping Systems Understanding Piping Systems Understanding Piping Systems Understanding Piping Systems Understanding Piping Systems Understanding Piping Systems Understanding Piping Systems Understanding Piping Systems Understanding Piping Systems Understanding Piping Systems PFD and P&ID
In the previous slides, a whole piping system has
been designed. We represent the whole thing in a drawing which is called Piping and Instrumentation Drawing, in short P&ID. A more simplified form of P&ID is known as a PFD which is commonly used to indicate the general flow of plant processes and equipment. The PFD displays the relationship between major equipment of a plant facility and does not show minor details such as piping details and designations. Sample PFD P&ID

PFD Piping Specifications
The Piping Specification (abbreviated: PIPE SPEC) is a
document prepared during the design phase of any project. It provides the appropriate selection, specification and material grade of pipe and piping components for a given service. A piping specification only applies to the defined plant, site or installation. Other sites or plants for example can have their own piping specifications and they are NOT interchangeable. Piping Specifications
BF-1028-3 (1S1) is a line no. taken from the sample P&ID
BF Designates the Services, which In this case is
Boiler Feed Water Designates the pipeline number which is a 1028 unique number allocated to a specific section or run of pipe during the design stages. 3 Designates the nominal pipe size of the line. This is a short-hand reference into the piping 1S1 specification document, and is also unique to that document. The first number normally refers to the pressure rating of the system.
