- condensate formation;
- presence of corrosive substances;
- mechanical stresses and vibrations due to normal operation;
- danger of fire and explosion.

2.2 Functional requirements

Equipment shall be manufactured in accordance with the requirements defined

in Data Sheet and in the documentation issued for the specific project.

2.2.1 Design requirements

A dielectric joint shall be composed of two pieces of metallic pipe,assembled

by welding along with interposition of insulating material and sealing gaskets
so that the two pieces at the same time come out each other mechanically
connected and electrically insulated.

The design of joints must be performed in accordance with ASME code

Sect.VIII Div. I Appendix 2 adapted conveniently.

Insulating joints shall be designed for a pressure defined by ANSI/ASME code

B16.5 for the pressure rating to which the piping where joints are installed
shall be subjected. Pressure rating and design temperature shall be specified on
Data Sheet.
