Pipe schedule tell you something about the wall thickness of a pipe.

Higher schedule means thicker wall.

The actual thickness must be read from a pipe specification sheet, as it differs from material to material. Typical pipe sch. are Sch 20, 40, 80, 160, XS, XXS.

What is nozzle schedule xs?

Nozzle schedule XS refers to a specific set of wall thicknesses for piping, particularly in the context of piping systems made from materials like carbon steel. It is part of a classification system that includes various schedules (like Schedule 40, 80, etc.) to denote the thickness and pressure ratings of pipes and fittings. A nozzle schedule XS typically indicates heavier wall thicknesses compared to standard schedules, allowing for higher pressure handling and durability in applications. This is often used in industrial settings, such as oil and gas, where robust piping is essential.


Can the schedule 20 ERW pipes be used for the fire hydrant system with a 1250 GPM pump?

Schedule 20 ERW pipes are generally not recommended for fire hydrant systems, especially with a 1250 GPM pump, due to their lower pressure and thickness compared to higher schedule pipes like Schedule 40 or Schedule 80. Fire hydrant systems require robust piping to withstand high pressures and potential impacts. Using Schedule 20 could lead to failures or insufficient flow, compromising the system's effectiveness in fire suppression. It's best to consult local codes and regulations for the appropriate piping specifications.
