1.0 SCOPE
2.1 GENERAL
The steam jacketing system consists of:
All piping requiring steam jacketing shall be shown on the P&ID and piping drawings indicating continuous
(The steam supply to each jacketed circuit should be taken from the main header or sub headers for jacketing.
The steam header or sub header shall be provided with steam traps.

3 MATERIAL
All piping materials for process line (inner core) and outer jacket shall be in accordance with material
specifications. Material
NOTE: For cases when the inner core is 150# carbon steel and is being jacketed by MP / HP Steam. Contractor
to check the thickness for the core pipe and shall use the same after getting Pyramid approval. However, in no
case thickness to be decreased less than the thickness of core pipe as per the original specification.
Each weld of the inner pipe shall be accessible for X-raying and shall be visible during hydro testing.
Therefore, split jackets shall be used to enable inspection of each inner pipe weld.
Longitudinal welds from the split pipe jackets and split tees or reducers shall be staggered to avoid
cross weld.
When a jump over or condensate return connection is required in split jacket, first the connection
shall be

Details of Reducers, Vent, Drains and instrument connection for continuous jacketing
NOTES:
1. Minimum size of sub-header and the supply line will be 1” for Max. 4 x ¾ “ OR 6 x ½ “ supply lines to
jacket 1½ “ for maximum 6 x ¾ “ OR 8 x ½ “ supply lines to jacket.
2. Supply line to jacket shall be ½“for ¾ “jackets and smaller for ¾ “for 4” x 6” jackets and larger.

NOTES:
1) For ‘Cross’ fabrication split the jacket into four longitudinal half pipe shells (dimensions as applicable for T-
fittings).
2) In process lines for equal branch, equal tee to be used reducing tee to be used if the branch size is 2” x
1.5”.
3) For fabrication of ‘Branch Connection’ split the jacket into two longitudinal half pipe shells
(dimensions as applicable for T-fittings)

1) The drain holes of Baffle shall be located to vent the jacket as possible.
3) The Jacket of deadline stop valve shall be fed in parallel with the jacket of main line or in series with the
jacket of deadline.
4) Avoid process line pockets lines shall be self draining and valve stems, vertically mounted as far as possible.
NOTES:
1) Guide material shall be as per process line material and shall be supplied by fabricator.
2) The dimensions in the table above are for a 150# jacket as per specification. For 300# or higher rating
jacket the dimensions shall be suitably calculated by the fabricator.
