205 A Guide to the Production Testing of Valves for the Energy, Process and related Industries
This Guide sets out recommended production tests to be applied to the main types of valve used in the energy, process and related industries: ball, plug, gate, butterfly and globe. It is a common assumption that valve test and product standards contain all that is required to ensure adequate performance, but this is not always the case. By adopting the tests specified here, EEMUA expects that the users requirements will be better fulfilled, particularly for critical services.

200 Guide to the Specification, Installation and Maintenance of Spring Supports for Piping
A common problem faced on construction sites and operating plants with certain piping systems, is a lack of specialist knowledge on effective and safe setting and maintenance of piping spring supports, particularly where there is a significant temperature difference between the hot (operating) and cold (shutdown) conditions of the plant. This publication aims to address this problem by providing data on the specification of piping supports (in particular the information required by the manufacturer), information to be recorded in the pipe support index, installation and commissioning procedures, in-service inspection and maintenance, and dynamic restraints.
This publication addresses the problem. It covers the specification of piping supportsin particular the information required by the manufacturerthe information to be recorded in the pipe support index, installation and commissioning procedures, in-service inspection and maintenance, and, as a separate section, dynamic restraints.

199 On-Line Leak Sealing of Piping: Guide to Safety Considerations
Certain types of leak from pressurised piping (including valves) may be effectively contained by on-line sealing methods involving the use of elastomeric compounds. These (essentially temporary) repair methods were originally developed for application to leaking steam and condensate systems. However with additional safety precautions, they may be applied to process piping systems containing flammable, corrosive and/or toxic fluids. The publication gives guidance on the limits of application of the technique, the factors to be considered when evaluating the feasibility of its use, the preparation and execution of the procedure and the type of risk assessment required.

196 Valve Purchasers' Guide to the European Pressure Equipment Directive
The European Pressure Equipment Directive (PED) became part of European countries' law in 2002. This guide 'cuts through the fog' by identifying and explaining those areas of the PED that valve purchasers need to know and understand. It also gives information on those guidelines issued by the European Commission's Working Group of relevance to valves. Purchasers of other items of pressurised equipment will also find useful guidance in the publication. Topics include a one-page guide to the PED; how the conformity assessment modules affect valves; routes to materials compliance, marking, certification and documentation; responsibilities of manufacturers, inspection bodies and users; a step-by-step procedure for establishing valve 'category'.

195 Compendium of EEMUA Information Sheets on Topics Related to Pressure-Containing Equipment
Over the years the EEMUA Piping Systems Technical Committee (PSC) has developed and issued exclusively for Members' use a number of short 'information sheets' on a variety of engineering topics. The PSC Committee decided that a wider audience would benefit from the advice contained in several of the sheets prepared, hence this compilation on topics related to pressure-containing equipment. The topics covered are: detecting and evaluating in service deterioration in pipes and tubes, thermal imaging applications, in-service replacement of bolting, application guidelines for integral block and bleed valve manifolds, pipe flange surface finishes, fugitive emissions, pipe wall retirement thicknesses, use of metric bolting in place of inch bolting for 'class' designated flanges, integrity of small-bore pipe fittings, acoustic emission applications.

192 Guide for the Procurement of Valves for Low Temperature (Non Cryogenic) Service
This publication has been prepared for users and contractors involved in the procurement of process valves for operation in moderately cold conditions, typically 0 C to -50 C, a temperature range typically not adequately covered by existing low temperature standards. The guide covers recommendations for design and functional requirements, materials, marking and testing. Appendices are included covering temperature limits of non metallic materials, proposed type test procedures and test acceptance standards.

185 Guide for Hot Tapping on Piping and other Equipment
Hot tapping, the term used when a branch is connected to a live or 'hot' piping system, is potentially hazardous particularly where flammable or toxic fluids are present. This publication offers guidance on how to carry out a safe and successful operation when hot tapping into metallic piping systems containing process fluids or their residues. It covers overall planning of the operation and includes hazard assessment and control, the constraints imposed by the nature, temperature and pressure of the process fluids, welding, testing and cutting (drilling/trepanning). Additionally, information is provided for special hot tapping applications such as on storage tanks.

184 Guide to the Isolation of Pressure Relieving Devices
Pressure relieving devices generally require more frequent inspection and maintenance that the rest of process plant. By providing isolation, devices can be removed with the plant remaining in operation. However isolation introduces the risk of inadvertent disconnection of a pressurised system from its relieving device; such isolation therefore needs to be rigorously controlled. This publication offers guidance on the design, installation, management and operation of isolation systems, identifying the key points to be considered. Its topics include legislation, national standards, mechanical locking systems and isolation valve selection.

182 Specification for Integral Block and Bleed Valve Manifolds for Direct Connection to Pipework
This specification covers integral block and bleed valve manifolds for direct connection to pipework, used as a replacement for individual block and bleed valves at tapping points in piping systems and also in larger arrangements for equipment and main process isolation. The aim of the specification is to ensure that such installations are fit for purpose and of the required integrity.
