7、 1. SCOPE 1.1 Object. The object of this standard is to estblish a common. color code for visual warnings to accompany the written identification of materials covered in piping systems and contained in compressed gas cylinders, and to facilitate the segregation of these cylinders at de- pots. The us
8、e of this standard will promote greater safety and will lessen the chances of error , confusion, or inaction in times of emer- gency by providing a uniform color code to quickly warn personnel of outstanding hazards inherent in the materials involved. However, this standard does not define the manne
9、r or conditions under which these materials mqr be used safely. 1.2 Application. This standard is applicable to all ground based piping systems and to all compressed gas cylinders owned by or pro- cured for the Department of Defense including type D one-ton containers (Department of Transportation S
10、pecification 1OGA-500). The applicability of this standard to industry piping systems and commercial-owned cylin- ders (see 5.2.5.1) is encouraged. Requirements specified herein are optional for hose-lines and nozzles, ship installations; equipment in- tended for operations in forward mea facilities
11、, steam plants, and ,; hydroelectric plants. The identification method for bulk petroleum product systems is covered in MIL-STD-161. The identification of pipe lines for aircraft, missiles, and space vehicles is covered in MIL- STD-1247. Color coding for containers of liquid propellants is covered i
12、n MILSTD-172. 1.3 Method. This standard establishes, defines, and assigns a color for recognition to each of six classes of materials. Five classes have been selected to represent universally recognized types of hazards involved in the handling of dangerous gases and liquids. The sih class is assign
13、ed for exclusive use of fire protection materials and equipment. This standard requires the application of the color warnings in a distinctive manner, as a visual aid and supplement to written identification. 2.

16、ntracting officer. ) 3. DEFINITIONS 3.1 For the purpose of this standard, the following definitions shall apply : . (a) Comercial colors. Commercial- colors are the colors which may be used,. in a limited arrangement, on a small portion of the body and bottom of a compressed gas cylinder for commerc
17、ial identification and designation of ownership. (b) Compressed. gas cylinder. A compressed gas cylinder is a.ny tube, bottle, or other type .of pressure cylinder larger than 3 inches in diameter by 6 inches in length, which contains a pressure that exceeds 104 pounds per square inch at 130. F or an
18、y liquid flammable material having a vapor pressure exceeding 40 pounds per squa2e inch absolute at 100 F. One-ton type bulk containers are included. All ammunition is excluded. (c) Piping systems. Piping systems consist of any pipe line or con- duit. used for the transport of gases, liquids, or sem
19、iliquids, but not those used for carrying solids in air or gas. Valves , fittings operating accessories, pipe coverings, and pipe installations of any kind (including submerged or buried pipe lines, their markers or buoys, and their points of tie-in with pumping stations and storage or dispensing fa
20、cilities) shall be considered as parts of a .piping system. Supports, brackets, or other nonoperating accessories are not considered parts for application of warning colors. (a) Primary color warninh dimensional- information shown on figure 1. . In lieu f color bands all pipe and covering on an enti
21、re system, including all encircling or partially encircling straps, hangers, and supports, mw be painted with the primary color warning. However, the use of color bands is preferred because they will indicate dangerous systems to color-blind.personne1, . 5.1.3.2 Location on pipink systems. Immediate
22、ly adjacent to all operating accessories such as valves regulators, flowchecks, strainers, cleanouts, pumps, dispensing points, and vents, all coded piping sys- tems shall be painted with a pr5mu-y color warning. In addition, primary color warnings shall be painted throughout the system at con- veni
23、ent intervals, e.;., where branch lines join the system, where the system passes underground or through walls, and at any other con- - spicuous places where warnings are required by safety. authorities If desired, operating accessories may also be painted with the primq _. color warning. 5 .l. 4 Arr
24、ows and secondary color warnings. An arrow sha;pe shall. appear on coded piping systems in any installation which is color coded in accordance with this sfandard, Any material system possessing an outstanding hazard of 8, type distinctly different from that indi- cated by its primary color warning s
25、hall have a secondary color warn- ing applied in the shape of an arrow. The color of the arrow shall be selected according to the definitions for warning colors specified in 4.2. Systems which do not involve such additionil hazards shall have arrows either the same color =.the primary warning, or bl
26、ack or white. When bands axe used-for the primary warnings, thecolored arrows shall appear adjacent to each primary color warning applied to the piping system. When the entire piping system .is painted with the primary color warning, the colored arrows shall appear-in all locations specif.ied in 5.1
27、.3.2. The arrows shall indicate the normal direction( s) of flow of material in the system. A double-headed asrq 8hall be placed on lines subject to reverse flow. Dimensional informa- tion is shown on figure 1. Tails may be omitted on arows, creating triangles with one corner indicating the normal d
28、irection of flow, Operating accessories may also be pasntea with the secondary color warning. 5 Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-PRIMARY COLOR WARNING b WIDTH OF BAND I II 2 (I 6 I OUTSIDE DIAMETER OF PIPE OR COVERING UNDER 36 3$ TO 13
