RE: Minimum distance between Fittings

Hitesh, assume these are butt weld fittings. Fitting to fitting is preferred but where not possible I work on minimum pup spool distance of 50 mm to allow for weld effected zone and weld efficiency. Haven't had any failures yet. With steam, elbows can be highly stressed and its best to ovoid short pipe sections and layout distribution to allow fitting to fitting.

Hope these comments of some help. Best regards Glenn
