Foreword
‘This British Standard has been prepared under the
direction of the Machanical Engineering Standards
Committee and constitutes a revision of BS 2995: 1966
and BS 3808 : 1964. This new matric standard covers,
classes 800 and 1500 scrowed and socket-weld ond
wedge gate, globe and check valves previously covered by
BS 2995 and BS 3808, also classes 150, 300, 600 and
11500 flanged and butt-weld end wedge gate, globe and
check valves previously covered by BS 3808, BS 1414,
BS 1868 and BS 1873. Apart from metricetion, The
valves ate basically the same, but the list of shell and trim
materials has been extended and bellovis seal valves have
been included.
BS 2995 and BS 3808 ore withdrawn on publication of
this standard, Amendments to BS 1414, BS 1868 and
BS 1873 will dolote rofarences to size 40 mm and
smaller. BS 2080 will be amended.
‘The plug valves previously covered in BS 2995 willbe
Included in tho new mote version of BS 1570.
“The provious sections in 8S 2995 and BS 3808 dealing
with tests and inspection have not been included inthis
standard, as these are now the subject of a separate
standard, BS 6 rt :
"NOTE. Requirements fr fina inspacion and supplementary
Inspection stall stages of mentature previously epectog In
Be btao Ports 1804 row wihdawn) should be stated by the
purehaser ins enquiry er dar” *.
“Similarly, eotions in BS 2998 and BS 3808 dealing with
dimensional sizes and tolerances of scrowed and
‘socket-wald end details have been amitted and cross
references made to the appropriate sections of the new.
‘metcioversion of BS 3793, which in turn has been
‘modified for bore dimensions of sockets to allow use of
pipe in accordance with BS 3800 and BS 1600.
BS 5352 : 1981
tis the intention that valves complying with the
requirements of this standard shall be interchangeable as
units with those of similar type produced by American
‘manufacturers. In the preparation ofthis standard,
consideration has therefore boen given to the latest
edition of API Standard 602.
\Valvas pecified in this standard are primarily intended for
installation as follows:
(a) screwed ends, with pipes or fittings threaded in
‘accordance with API Standard 6B or ANS! B2.1;
(b) socket-weld ends, with plain ond pipa in accordance
with API Standard 5L, 8S 1600 or BS 3600;
(c) butt-weld ends, with plain ond pipoin accordance
with API Standard BL, BS 1600 or BS 3600;
(4) fanged ends, with flangesin accordance with
BS 1560: Part2
Where vaives are for use in piping systems using flanges
in accordance with BS 4504 : Part 1 or screw-threads in
accordance with BS 21 attention is drawn to appendix A,
and appendix B respectively
‘This standard can also be used as a general guice where
valves of material composition outside the scope of
section three ofthis standard aro requited as, for example,
for use in highly corrosive services and environments, or
for low temperatures.
‘Acknowledgoment is made to the American Petroloum
Institute and to the American National Standards Institute
for data used.
