Q

What is the main disadvantage of pancake blinds vs. spectacle blinds?

A

Pancake blinds → the flanges have to be spread in order to remove the blind.

Vs. spectacle blinds, where the piping system is designed to accomodate the blind.

What compatibility must be considered regarding gasket materials and flanges?

A

Compatibility with flange and joint design

The gasket must fit properly within the joint to ensure an effective seal.

117
Q

What type of wear should gasket materials be able to withstand?

A

Wear experienced by the turning motion found on drain plugs (attrition)

This is crucial for gaskets used in applications with moving parts.

118
Q

What is the product in a sniffer tube called?

A

Reactant

119
Q

What type of reamer is used on a power threader?

A

Straight fluted

Sprial fluted reamers pull into the material, which could cause breakage with a power threader.

120
Q

True or false: 1 inch schedule 80 and XXS pipe have the same outside diameters.

A

True

121
Q

When making repairs to an existing piping system what must be ensured, what four pipe characteristics must be ensured?

A
  1. Pipe material
  2. Size
  3. Finish
  4. Standard
122
Q

Identify the standards organizations used in North America for piping?

A

CSA, API, ASTM and ISO

123
Q

The heat number found on a Mill Certification for piping tells you what?

A

Record of the chemical analysis of the steel

124
Q

With a pipe end finished “threaded and coupled”, the coupling supplied with this type of finish is suitable for what piping application?

A

These coupling are thread protectors and should not be used in any installation

125
Q

Which pipe joint is prone to loosening during operation in a system which vibrates, has pressure pulse and thermal movement?

A

Tapered threads

126
Q

Which pipe joint requires a machined spot face?

A

Straight threads

ORB ⟶ O-ring boss threads

127
Q

When cutting a NPT thread how far do you cut the thread?

A

Thread to the end of the die

128
Q

How many turns by hand should a fitting have on a ½ inch NPT threaded pipe?

A

4 ½

129
Q

How do you determine the outside diameter of copper tube?

A

Tube is measured by nominal size plus 1/8 on an inch

130
Q

Which type of soldering equipment would be practical for soft soldering a large area?

A

Coppers

131
Q

Which type of flux is suitable to solder electrical wiring?

A

Resin flux

132
Q

Identify the following flange and gasket design:

A

Flat-faced unconfined

133
Q

Identify the following flange and gasket design:

A

A male and female flange and gasket

These gaskets are semi-contained because the gasket is confined on its two flat sides and outside edge.

134
Q

This type of pipe support allows unlimited axial movement for supported pipe.

A

Pipe saddle support

135
Q

What are two reasons why gaskets move while in place?

A
  1. Bolt load
  2. Internal pressure
136
Q

True or false: Flat-faced gasket joints are regarded as confined joints because the gasket is not allowed to flow freely.

A

False

The gasket can be squeezesd out.

137
Q

True or false: Flat-faced gaskets are used for high-pressure conditions.

A

False

They would be squeezed out.
