13、m IHS-,-FOREWORDThe B16 Standards Committee was organized in the spring of 1920 and held its organizationalmeeting on November 21st of that year. The group operated as a sectional Committee (laterredesignated as a Standards Committee), under the authorization of the American EngineeringStandards Com

14、mittee (subsequently named American Standards Association, then the UnitedStates of America Standards Institute and now, American National Standards Institute). Sponsorsfor the group were the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, Manufacturers StandardizationSociety of the Valve and Fitting Indu

15、stry, and the Heating and Piping Contractors NationalAssociation (later the Mechanical Contractors Association of America).The American Gas Association determined that standardization of gas valves used in distribu-tion systems was desirable and needed. The A.G.A. Task Committee on Standards for Val

16、vesand Shut-Offs was formed and development work commenced in 1958. In 1968, it was determinedthat a more acceptable document would result if approval were gained for the American NationalStandards Institute and to facilitate such action, the A.G.A. Committee became B16 SubcommitteeNo. 13, later ren

17、amed Subcommittee L, which is its current designation. In 1982, the B16 Commit-tee, was reorganized as an ASME committee operating under procedures accredited by ANSI.The first standard developed by the Subcommittee was ANSI B16.33.As a follow-up, the B16.38 standard was subsequently developed to co

18、ver larger sizes of gasvalves and shut-offs. Starting in about 1965, there was a major increase in the use of plastic pipingin gas distribution systems, which made it desirable to have valves and shut-offs of a compatiblematerial. To fill this need, the B16.40 standard was developed.In 1985, the lac

19、k of standards for gas valves for use in gas piping systems, downstream fromthe point of delivery (meter outlet), and upstream of the inlet to gas utilization equipment, wasbrought to the attention of the subcommittee. To fill this need, this Standard was developed.This Standard has been developed s

20、o that user and manufacturers have a common basis valvespecification, one that can be readily used to qualify valve designs. Usage by certifying bodieswould make it possible for building codes to reference the standard.In 2002, the title was changed to clearly match the updated scope and several oth

21、er revisionswere incorporated to bring the standard up-to-date with the current practices.All request for interpretations or suggestions for revisions should be sent to the Secretary, B16Standards Committee, The American Society of Mechanical Engineers, Three Park Avenue, NewYork, NY 10016-5990.Foll

22、owing its approval by the B16 Standards Committee, this Standard was approved as anAmerican National Standard by ANSI on May 16, 2002.ivCopyright ASME International Provided by IHS under license with ASMENot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-ASME B16 COMMIT

28、lly operated metallic valvesin sizes NPS 414and tubing sizes 114O.D. These valvesare intended for indoor installation as gas shutoff valveswhen installed in aboveground fuel gas piping down-stream of the gas meter outlet and upstream of the inletconnection to a gas appliance. The valves covered byth

29、is Standard are intended for service at temperaturesbetween 32F (0C) and 125F (52C) at pressure ratingsnot to exceed 5 psi (0.34 bar). When so designated by themanufacturer, these valves may be installed for serviceoutdoors and/or at temperatures below 32F (0C) and/or above 125F (52C).1.2 Applicabil
