ISS 23.040

Introduction date 1971-01-01

By the Decree of the Committee of Standards, Measures and Measuring Instruments under the Council of Ministers of the USSR of February 7, 1969 N 168, the introduction date was set from 01.01.71

Reissue. March 2004

1. This standard applies to identification coloring, warning signs and marking plates of pipelines (including connecting parts, fittings, fittings and insulation) at designed, newly built, reconstructed and existing industrial enterprises inside buildings, at outdoor installations and communications located on overpasses and in underground channels in order to quickly determine the contents of pipelines and facilitate the management of production processes, as well as ensuring labor safety.

The standard does not apply to the identification coloring of pipelines and ducts with electrical wiring.

2. The following ten enlarged groups of substances transported through pipelines are established:

1) water;

3) air;

4) combustible gases (including liquefied gases);

5) non-flammable gases (including liquefied gases);

6) acids;

7) alkalis;

8) combustible liquids;

9) non-flammable liquids;

0) other substances.

3. Identification coloring and digital designation of enlarged groups of pipelines must correspond to those indicated in Table 1.

4. Characteristics of colors of identification coloring should correspond to those specified in Appendix 1.

5. Fire-fighting pipelines, regardless of their content (water, foam, steam for extinguishing a fire, etc.), sprinkler and deluge systems in the areas of shut-off and control valves and at the points of connection of hoses and other fire extinguishing devices must be painted red (signal).

If it is necessary to indicate the contents of fire-fighting pipelines, it is allowed to additionally designate them by means of marking plates painted in the appropriate distinctive colors.

6. Identification painting of pipelines should be carried out continuously over the entire surface of communications or in separate sections.

The method for performing identification painting should be selected depending on the location of the pipelines, their length, diameter, the number of lines located together, safety and industrial sanitation requirements, lighting conditions and visibility of pipelines for maintenance personnel and the general architectural solution.

It is recommended to paint pipelines in sections in workshops with a large number and length of communications, as well as in cases where, due to the increased requirements for color rendering and the nature of the architectural solution of the interior, a concentration of bright colors is undesirable due to working conditions.

Identification painting over the entire surface of pipelines is recommended for use with a small length and a relatively small number of communications, if it does not worsen working conditions in the shops.

On outdoor installations, it is recommended to use identification coloring over the entire surface only in cases where this does not cause deterioration of operating conditions due to the effect of solar radiation on communications.

7. When applying identification coloring in sections to pipelines located inside industrial premises, it is recommended to paint the rest of the communications surface in the color of walls, partitions, ceilings and other interior elements against which the pipelines are located. At the same time, it is not allowed to paint pipelines between sections with an identification color adopted to designate other enlarged groups of substances.

8. When applying identification coloring in sections to pipelines located outside buildings, it is recommended to paint the rest of the communications surface in colors that help reduce the thermal effect of solar radiation on pipelines.

9. When laying communications in impassable channels and when laying communications without channels, areas of identification coloring on pipelines should be applied within the chambers and manholes.

10. Areas of identification coloring should be applied, taking into account local conditions, at the most critical communication points (at branches, at joints, flanges, at points of selection and instrumentation, at places where pipelines pass through walls, partitions, ceilings, at inputs and outputs from industrial buildings, etc.) at least 10 m inside production facilities and outdoor installations and 30-60 m on external main routes.

11. The width of the areas of identification coloring should be taken depending on the outer diameter of the pipelines (including insulation):

for pipes with a diameter of up to 300 mm - at least four diameters;

for pipes with a diameter of more than 300 mm - at least two diameters.

With a larger number of parallel communications, it is recommended that the areas of identification coloration on all pipelines be of the same width and applied at the same intervals.

With large diameters of pipelines, areas of identification coloring may be applied in the form of strips with a height of at least 1/4 of the pipeline circumference.

The width of the strips must correspond to the dimensions established for pipelines of a given diameter.

12. To designate the most hazardous substances transported by properties, warning color rings should be applied to pipelines.

Identification colors for warning rings must correspond to those indicated in Table 2.

Notes:

1. When applying yellow rings for identification coloring of pipelines of gases and acids, the rings must have black borders with a width of at least 10 mm.

2. When applying green rings for the identification color of water pipelines, the rings must have white borders with a width of at least 10 mm.

13. In cases where a substance simultaneously has several dangerous properties, indicated by different colors, rings of several colors should be applied to pipelines at the same time.

On vacuum pipelines, in addition to the distinctive color, it is necessary to give the inscription "vacuum".

14. According to the degree of danger to human life and health or the operation of the enterprise, substances transported through pipelines should be divided into three groups, indicated by the corresponding number of warning rings in accordance with Table 3.

ISS 23.040

Introduction date 1971-01-01

By the Decree of the Committee of Standards, Measures and Measuring Instruments under the Council of Ministers of the USSR of February 7, 1969 N 168, the introduction date was set from 01.01.71

Reissue. March 2004

1. This standard applies to identification coloring, warning signs and marking plates of pipelines (including connecting parts, fittings, fittings and insulation) at designed, newly built, reconstructed and existing industrial enterprises inside buildings, at outdoor installations and communications located on overpasses and in underground channels in order to quickly determine the contents of pipelines and facilitate the management of production processes, as well as ensuring labor safety.

The standard does not apply to the identification coloring of pipelines and ducts with electrical wiring.

2. The following ten enlarged groups of substances transported through pipelines are established:

1) water;

3) air;

4) combustible gases (including liquefied gases);

5) non-flammable gases (including liquefied gases);

6) acids;

7) alkalis;

8) combustible liquids;

9) non-flammable liquids;

0) other substances.

3. Identification coloring and digital designation of enlarged groups of pipelines must correspond to those indicated in Table 1.

4. Characteristics of colors of identification coloring should correspond to those specified in Appendix 1.

5. Fire-fighting pipelines, regardless of their content (water, foam, steam for extinguishing a fire, etc.), sprinkler and deluge systems in the areas of shut-off and control valves and at the points of connection of hoses and other fire extinguishing devices must be painted red (signal).

If it is necessary to indicate the contents of fire-fighting pipelines, it is allowed to additionally designate them by means of marking plates painted in the appropriate distinctive colors.

6. Identification painting of pipelines should be carried out continuously over the entire surface of communications or in separate sections.

The method for performing identification painting should be selected depending on the location of the pipelines, their length, diameter, the number of lines located together, safety and industrial sanitation requirements, lighting conditions and visibility of pipelines for maintenance personnel and the general architectural solution.

It is recommended to paint pipelines in sections in workshops with a large number and length of communications, as well as in cases where, due to the increased requirements for color rendering and the nature of the architectural solution of the interior, a concentration of bright colors is undesirable due to working conditions.

Identification painting over the entire surface of pipelines is recommended for use with a small length and a relatively small number of communications, if it does not worsen working conditions in the shops.

On outdoor installations, it is recommended to use identification coloring over the entire surface only in cases where this does not cause deterioration of operating conditions due to the effect of solar radiation on communications.

7. When applying identification coloring in sections to pipelines located inside industrial premises, it is recommended to paint the rest of the communications surface in the color of walls, partitions, ceilings and other interior elements against which the pipelines are located. At the same time, it is not allowed to paint pipelines between sections with an identification color adopted to designate other enlarged groups of substances.

8. When applying identification coloring in sections to pipelines located outside buildings, it is recommended to paint the rest of the communications surface in colors that help reduce the thermal effect of solar radiation on pipelines.

9. When laying communications in impassable channels and when laying communications without channels, areas of identification coloring on pipelines should be applied within the chambers and manholes.

10. Areas of identification coloring should be applied, taking into account local conditions, at the most critical communication points (at branches, at joints, flanges, at points of selection and instrumentation, at places where pipelines pass through walls, partitions, ceilings, at inputs and outputs from industrial buildings, etc.) at least 10 m inside production facilities and outdoor installations and 30-60 m on external main routes.

11. The width of the areas of identification coloring should be taken depending on the outer diameter of the pipelines (including insulation):

for pipes with a diameter of up to 300 mm - at least four diameters;

for pipes with a diameter of more than 300 mm - at least two diameters.

With a larger number of parallel communications, it is recommended that the areas of identification coloration on all pipelines be of the same width and applied at the same intervals.

With large diameters of pipelines, areas of identification coloring may be applied in the form of strips with a height of at least 1/4 of the pipeline circumference.

The width of the strips must correspond to the dimensions established for pipelines of a given diameter.

12. To designate the most hazardous substances transported by properties, warning color rings should be applied to pipelines.

Identification colors for warning rings must correspond to those indicated in Table 2.

Notes:

1. When applying yellow rings for identification coloring of pipelines of gases and acids, the rings must have black borders with a width of at least 10 mm.

2. When applying green rings for the identification color of water pipelines, the rings must have white borders with a width of at least 10 mm.

13. In cases where a substance simultaneously has several dangerous properties, indicated by different colors, rings of several colors should be applied to pipelines at the same time.

On vacuum pipelines, in addition to the distinctive color, it is necessary to give the inscription "vacuum".

14. According to the degree of danger to human life and health or the operation of the enterprise, substances transported through pipelines should be divided into three groups, indicated by the corresponding number of warning rings in accordance with Table 3.

22. The image of warning signs should be taken in accordance with the draft. 2 and table. 5.

23. In cases where the impact of aggressive flowing substances can cause a change in the hue of the distinctive colors, pipelines must be marked with marking plates.

24. Labeling plates should be used to additionally indicate the type of substances and their parameters (temperature, pressure, etc.) required by the operating conditions.

Marking plates on pipelines or on the surfaces of structures to which pipelines are attached must be marked with alphabetic or numeric inscriptions.

25. The inscriptions on the shields of the pipelines must be made in a clear, well-readable font and should not contain unnecessary data, little-used terms and incomprehensible abbreviations. The font for inscriptions is recommended to be taken in accordance with GOST 10807-78.

It is allowed to designate the type of substance by means of numbers in accordance with App. 3.

The designation of the type of substance by means of chemical formulas is not allowed.

26. The direction of the flow of substances transported through pipelines must be indicated by the sharp end of the marking plates or by arrows applied directly to the pipelines.

The shape and size of the arrows must match the shape and size of the labels.

27. Marking shields must be of four types:

1 - to indicate the flow moving in both directions;

2 - the same, in the left direction;

3 - the same, in the right direction;

4 - to indicate the place of selection of the transported substance.

28. The dimensions of the marking plates must correspond to those indicated in Fig. 3 and in table. 6.

29. Size options for labels, inscriptions and warning signs should preferably be used:

1 - in laboratories;

2 and 3 - in industrial premises;

4 and 5 - on outdoor installations and outdoor main routes.

30. When attaching them to pipelines, warning signs should be placed together with marking plates.

31. The height of markings on pipelines should be taken depending on the outer diameter of the pipeline in accordance with drawing. 4 and table. 7.

The color of markings and arrows indicating the direction of flow applied to pipelines and marking plates should be white or black, taking into account the greatest contrast with the main color of the pipelines.

The color of the inscriptions when applied against the background of identification coloring is taken:

white - on a green, red and brown background;

black - on a blue, yellow, orange, purple and gray background.

32. The size of labels, inscriptions and warning signs should be selected depending on the distance from which they should be perceived by personnel associated with the operation of pipelines, in accordance with drawing. 5 and tab. 8.

33. Paint and varnish coatings for identification painting, marking plates and warning signs must be carried out in accordance with the current standards for paintwork materials and coatings, depending on the material of pipelines or the insulation protecting them and operating conditions, as well as the cost of paint and varnish coatings and the technology of their application.

34. Paintwork materials used for identification painting, marking plates and warning signs must meet the requirements of the relevant standards, as well as technical documentation approved in the prescribed manner.
