13 13/14 Appendix A: Revision and Transition Notes (Revisions are listed in reverse chronological order with most recent revision at the top. Revision notes describe: what was changed, why it was changed, and the plan to implement the change, including whether changes are retroactive) Revision Approved for Revision 7 Results from an investigation regarding an over-torquing failure of a Victaulic Style 75 coupling, the OEM states these couplings should not be exposed to sudden shock or blasting as in an underground mining environment. OEM preferred coupling is the Style 77. The Victaulic Style 75 and Gruvlok Fig 7000 have been removed from this specification and replaced with Victaulic Style 77 or Gruvlok Fig Note: The above changes are applicable to any new installations and/or modifications to existing systems from this date forward. Revision 6 Section 3: Added some reference codes and/or standards that were omitted Section 4: Changed Pressure Rating to Design Conditions, added temperature range to design and operating conditions. Pressure rating is a component requirement while design pressure and temperature is a system requirement. Changed design conditions maximum temperature from 140 to 149 F to be consistent with other specifications and changed operating conditions from 33 to 140 F to temperature up to 140 F. Replaced paragraph with list of requirements in Design Fabrication Installation section for clarity. Added ASME B36.10 references to the Pipe Section. The lb. was removed from Class designations per ASME definition. ANSI was removed from ANSI/ASME designations as ANSI/ASME is incorrect. Added ASME B16.11 and MSS SP-97 reference to Branch Connection section. Gasket section title replaced with Pipe Joint title and now includes welding section, flange bolts section and gasket section. Replaced incorrect SPEC with SPEC in Welded Joint section. Add full face gaskets required at flat face flanges. Section 5: Added table, added SPEC-3504 and PROC-3006 reference. Removed duplicate content that is in the SPEC or PROC. Section 6: Added Inspection to title. Added inspection criteria per code. Clarified examination requirements. Section 7: Changed section title for clarity.

14 14/14 Note: The above changes are applicable to any new installations and/or modifications to existing systems from this date forward. Revision 5 Approved for Thompson. Revision 4 Section 5 Testing was corrected to reference B31.1 code compliance rather than B31.3 code compliance. Revision 3 Reference to SPEC-3003 corrected in Reference document section. No technical changes. Revision 2 Approved for use in Thompson. Piping system approval requirements updated for.
