This standard covers the desi

42、gn, material, face-to-face dimensions, pressure-temperature ratings, and examination, inspection, and test requirements for two types of check valves. Type “A” check valves are short face-to-face as defined in Table 2 and can be: wafer, lug, or double flanged; double flange as defined in Table 3; si

43、ngle plate or dual plate; gray iron, ductile iron, steel, nickel alloy, or other alloy designed for installation between Classes 125 and 250 gray iron flanges as specified in ASME B16.1, between Classes 150 and 300 ductile iron flanges as specified in ASME B16.42, between Classes 150 and 2500 flange

44、s as specified in ASME B16.5, and between Classes 150 and 900 pipeline flanges as specified in MSS SP-44 or flanges as specified in ASME B16.47 Series A. Type “B” bolted cover swing check valves are long face-to-face as defined in 5.1.2 and can be: flanged or butt-welding ends of steel, nickel alloy

45、, or other alloy material. End flanges shall be as specified in ASME B16.5, or ends shall be butt-welding as specified in ASME B16.25. This standard covers the following ranges: Type “A” valves: Classes 125 and 250, 50 DN 1200 (2 NPS 48) (excluding DN 90 NPS 31/2); a) Classes 150 and 300, 50 DN 1200

46、 (2 NPS 48)*; b) Class 600, 50 DN 1050 (2 NPS 42)*; c) Classes 900 and 1500, 50 DN 600 (2 NPS 24)*; d) Class 2500, 50 DN 300 (2 NPS 12)*; Type “B” valves: a) Classes 150 through 1500, 50 DN 600 (2 NPS 24)*; b) Class 2500, 50 DN 300 (2 NPS 12)*. NOTE *Valve sizes DN 90 and DN 125 (NPS 31/2 and 5) are

47、 non-preferred sizes whose usage is discouraged. Sizes: DN: 50, 65, 80, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400, 450, 500, 600, 750, 900, 1050, 1200; corresponding to nominal pipe sizes (NPS): NPS: 2, 21/2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48. Information to be specified by the purchase

48、r is shown in Annex B. 2 API STANDARD 594 The standard nomenclature for valve parts is shown in Annex C. Figure C.1, Figure C.2, Figure C.3, and Figure C.4 illustrate typical Type “A” check valves, and Figure C.5 illustrates a typical Type “B” check valve. These figures show typical designs only and

49、 are not to be construed as precluding other available designs that comply with the requirements of this standard. The only purpose of these figures is to identify part names. The construction of a valve is acceptable only when it complies with this standard in all respects. 2 Normative References The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
