1. Accessibility of Valving in Pumps Piping
All valving in Pumps Piping shall be accessible for hand operation without the use of ladders.
Explanation: All valving at pumps should indeed be accessible for hand operation without the use of ladders.
2. Pressure Indicator Installation in Pumps Piping
Where should a pressure indicator be installed in relation to the check valve in the pump discharge?
Explanation: A pressure indicator should be installed in the discharge upstream of the check valve.
3. Consideration of Forces and Moments
According to Pumps Piping, what should be included in the evaluation of loads on pump nozzles?
Explanation: The effects of connecting piping forces and moments due to thermal expansion should be included in the evaluation of loads on pump nozzles.
4. Vent and Drain Valves
According to Pumps Piping, where should vent and drain valves be provided?
Explanation: Vent and drain valves should be provided so the pump casing and the suction and discharge piping up to the block valves can be drained. These valves may be on the piping or pump casing.
5. First Support Alignment
What should be the type of the first support nearest the pump suction and discharge nozzles, according to Pumps Piping?
Explanation: The first support nearest the pump suction and discharge nozzles shall be an adjustable type for proper alignment of the pump.
6. Pump Discharge Pressure Indicators
Where should pump discharge pressure indicators be located for easy viewing?
Explanation: Pump discharge pressure indicators should be located so they can be viewed from the start-stop button, which is located at the motor end of the pump.
7. Pump Arrangement and Aisle Width
According to Pumps Piping, how should pumps be arranged, and what should be the minimum aisle width?
Explanation: Wherever practical, pumps shall be arranged in rows with the center line of the discharge nozzle on a common line. The aisle between the pumps shall be a minimum of 900mm, and it should be clear of any auxiliary piping elements of pumps.
