PIP INEG2000 EDITORIAL REVISION Guidelines for Use of Insulation Practices May 2008

PURPOSE AND USE OF PROCESS INDUSTRY PRACTICES In an effort to minimize the cost of process industry facilities, this Practice has been prepared from the technical requirements in the existing standards of major industrial users, contractors, or standards organizations. By harmonizing these technical requirements into a single set of Practices, administrative, application, and engineering costs to both the purchaser and the manufacturer should be reduced. While this Practice is expected to incorporate the majority of requirements of most users, individual applications may involve requirements that will be appended to and take precedence over this Practice. Determinations concerning fitness for purpose and particular matters or application of the Practice to particular project or engineering situations should not be made solely on information contained in these materials. The use of trade names from time to time should not be viewed as an expression of preference but rather recognized as normal usage in the trade. Other brands having the same specifications are equally correct and may be substituted for those named. All Practices or guidelines are intended to be consistent with applicable laws and regulations including OSHA requirements. To the extent these Practices or guidelines should conflict with OSHA or other applicable laws or regulations, such laws or regulations must be followed. Consult an appropriate professional before applying or acting on any material contained in or suggested by the Practice.

This Practice is subject to revision at any time.

4. Electronic Entry Data Sheets

4.1 PIP insulation Practices represent proven practices used by the process industry. Special requirements are not intended to be covered by these Practices. These Practices require various data input forms (e.g., data sheets, forms, and reports) for use on projects.

4.2 Data input forms provided with the Practices are available as downloadable electronic entry data sheets (EEDS) in Word format. The EEDS should be used to specify requirements (e.g., insulation system data sheets, insulation thickness tables etc) or record specific information (e.g., inspection reports).

4.3 EEDS may contain default values (in grey shaded areas), which can be changed for specific project requirements.

5. Application of Practices - Overview
