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.
The temperature rating for PVC Schedule 80 piping is typically around 140F to 160F.
That would depend what schedule of piping your asking about thin wall? schedule 40? schedule 80? schedule 120? giving a hint would certainly help a lot
please tell me the difference between thickness
Schedule 40 P V C pipe.
I use schedule 40 for natural gas BUT if your talking medical Gases then look up the NFPA 54 or contact the CDA and your local codes
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.
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.
As far as I know the NPPA never had 3.4 piping and Steel piping is 2", 2 1/2" 5", 6" ,7" and 8" Although 7" is now very rare
What schedule piping as schedule 40 fittings are rated for 125# thus your 140 PSI would be really dangerous to try on standard fittings
What the difference between process piping and power piping?
Hello??? black steel comes in various schedules , schedule 10, 20 40 ,80 ,120 the thicker the wall the higher the pressure the piping can withstand
3/16 for every 2 inches
