If u r from India ,then u can get a sliding Chart(Piping) which is available at all Stationeries in Mumbai.I think u can even find it at ur place .It gives u all info like dimensions of all components and fittings ,valves sch. etc I hope this would help it .U can even refer any Hand book for Piping Engineers.

Please respond to

Hi All,
There are a lot of end conditions used in Piping and Fittings. Is there any document that has the list of such end condition abbreviations like: SCM = Threaded Male End, SWF = Socket Weld Female
It would be nice if such a document is available with a snap of each end condition for the visualization.
Thanks,
Safdar

Miscellaneous Valves

Valves Standards - Refining and Petrochem
<<This document focuses on some of the important standards that affect
steel, gate, globe and check valves in refineries and petrochemical
installations. Some mention will also be made of other valve
specifications, however specifications for control and relief valves
will not be covered. Early in this century, when our nation's
petrochemical and refining industries were in their infancy, pipe, valve
and fitting (PVF) manufacturers as well as end-users had no standards to
go by. The design and function of their products were dictated and
affected by actual feedback from the end user - be it years of effective
service life, catastrophic failure or incompatibility with similar
products from other manufacturers. This lack of valve, flange & fitting
interchangeability with other manufacturers products, resulted in two
primary groups addressing the standardization issue.>>
Valves History
<<Interesting valve catalog pages from decades ago.>>
Valve Owner's Survival Kit
<<As an engineer or technician you probably have to deal with valves
everyday. Depending upon your job description, you may have to specify,
maintain, install, operate or repair any number and type of valves. That
is a lot of responsibility. And if you don't know all the answers, you
have to get some help. But whom do you ask? Where do you look? If you
had a tough valve application questions 10-20 years ago, there was
probably someone in your organization that held the unofficial title of
'valve guru', and he would have the answers based on his years of
experience and focused interest. Sadly, the gold watches have taken
their toll, and most of these guys have transitioned to the back nine or
the back bay. So where do you turn? Fortunately there is a lot of good
information out there. Hopefully this article will give you a few
insider tips, as well as point you in the right informational
direction.>>
Maintenance

Valve Repair in the 21st Century United Valve
<<Once upon a time, most large refineries and chemical plants had their
own valve shops, complete with a full compliment of experienced valve
repair technicians. These service departments took care of most of the
plants repair needs, although oftentimes valves were simply replaced
rather than refurbished.>>
