Piping checklist
WARNING:
• The heating of water and other fluids causes volumetric expansion. The associated forces
can cause the failure of system components and the release of high-temperature fluids.
In order to prevent this, install properly sized and located pressure-relief valves. Failure
to follow these instructions can result in serious personal injury or death, or property
damage.
• Avoid serious personal injury and property damage. Make sure that the flange bolts are
adequately torqued.
• Never force piping to make a connection with a pump.
Check
Explanation/comment
Checked
Check that the suction and discharge pipes are
supported independently by use of pipe hangers near
the pump station.
This eliminates pipe strain on the pump
station.
Check that there is a strong, rigid support for the
suction and discharge lines.
As a rule, ordinary wire or band hangers are not
adequate to maintain proper alignment.
Check that the suction or discharge lines are not
forced into position.
Component failure will result if suction or
discharge lines are forced into position.
Check that fittings for absorbing expansion are
installed in the system when considerable
temperature changes are expected.
This helps to avoid strain on the pump.
