ASME B16.38-2023 Large Metallic Valves for Gas Distribution
Published By | Publication Date | Number of Pages |
ASME | 2023 | 22 |
This Standard covers requirements for manually operated metallic valves in nominal sizes 2 1/2 (DN 65) through 12 (DN 300) having the inlet and outlet on a common centerline. These valves are intended for controlling the flow of gas from open to fully closed positions, for use in distribution and service lines where the maximum gage pressure does not exceed 125 psig (8.6 bar). Valve seats, seals, and stem packing may be nonmetallic.
