 PURPOSE AND USE OF PROCESS INDUSTRY PRACTICES

In an effort to minimize the cost of process industry facilities, this Practice has
been prepared from the technical requirements in the existing standards of major
industrial users, contractors, or standards organizations. By harmonizing these technical
requirements into a single set of Practices, administrative, application, and engineering
costs to both the purchaser and the manufacturer should be reduced. While this Practice
is expected to incorporate the majority of requirements of most users, individual
applications may involve requirements that will be appended to and take precedence
over this Practice. Determinations concerning fitness for purpose and particular matters
or application of the Practice to particular project or engineering situations should not
be made solely on information contained in these materials. The use of trade names
from time to time should not be viewed as an expression of preference but rather
recognized as normal usage in the trade. Other brands having the same specifications
are equally correct and may be substituted for those named. All Practices or guidelines
are intended to be consistent with applicable laws and regulations including OSHA
requirements. To the extent these Practices or guidelines should conflict with OSHA or
other applicable laws or regulations, such laws or regulations must be followed.
Consult an appropriate professional before applying or acting on any material
contained in or suggested by the Practice.

This Practice is subject to revision at any time.

Tank Miscellaneous Details

1. Introduction
1.1 Purpose
This Practice provides fabrication and installation details for well pipes and other
miscellaneous tank components.
1.2 Scope
This Practice describes typical fabrication and installation requirements for well
pipes, generally constructed of carbon steel, stainless steel, or aluminum components.
These well pipes may be used for measuring levels and temperatures, for liquid inlet,
for liquid pump-out, for recycle loops, and/or for content sampling in tanks. This
Practice provides details for removable and nonremovable well pipe installations.
This Practice also provides details for well pipe supports and other components.
