BOS BY’S Manufacturers producing stesl pipe flanges to this specification may by arrangement with the Council of the South African Bureau of Standards apply the Council's standardization mark as illustrated above to their product as evidence to the consumer that the product is being made in accordance with this specification and that compliance with its requirements is ensured by tests and inspections carried out by the South African Bureau of Standards. This specification will be reviewed when necessary in order to keep abreast of progress. Comment will be welcomed and will be considered when ‘the specification is revised. Reprint incorporating Amendment N 1+ 22 August 1979 No, 2: 17 August 1962 ‘PREFACE This specification was originally prepared because of the discrepancies which existed between the thicknesses of flanges made in accordance with BS 10 and those made in accordance with BS 4504. The specification covers five types of flanges and, with the exception of deviations in the thick~ ness of flanges, follows closely the requirements of BS 4504 for the ranges of pressures up to 4 000 kPa and temperatures from -10 to +200 °C . Connecting dimensions, i.e. diameters, pitch circle diameters and drilling pattern, are in accordance with [80 2084 (the drilling of the flanges having been changed only to suit the preferred range of bolt sizes) so that the flanges may be connected to flanges made to BS 4504. ‘The pressure rating quoted in the specification is the maximum working pressure in the line. The test pressure for this type of equipment is normally 1,5 times the working pressure Because of the common practice of referring to a flange by reference to a table mmber, confusion may arise through the use of two systems of table reference, To overcome this possibility of confusion, the technical comuittee decided that it will be in the interests of the user and the manufacturer to adopt the approach used in BS 4504, Consequently, the flange reference tables in this specification have been designated Table 250/2, Table 250/3, etc. ISBN 0-626-06737-53 SABS 1123-1977 : COMMENDS COMMITTEE tee SECTION 1.

Requirements that must be specified by the purchaser are listed in Appendix B. ‘DEFINITIONS For the purposes of this specification the following definitions shall apply: Acceptable, In relation to the standardization mark and to consign ment inspections carried out by the Bureau, acceptable to the South African Bureen of Standards, Defective. A flange that fails in one or more respects to comply with the relevant requirements of the specification. Lot, Not less than 20 and not wore than 1 000 flanges of the same material and designation, made by one manufacturer, submitted at any one time for inspection and testing. Pressure rating. The maximum allowable working pressure of an installation of which the flange is intended to be a component. Working pressure. The maximum pressure to which the installation of which the flange is intended to be 4 component will be subjected under normal working conditions. 1)Flanges used for the connection of pipes to a pressure vessel should comply with the relevant requirements of the code to which the pressure vessel was manufactured. 2)For flanges for use at pressures and temperatures outside these limits, and for those made of metals other than steel, see BS 4504.SABS 1123-1977 6 3 Bel 342 33 4. 41 4.162 TYPE, RATING, AND IDENTIFICATION TYPE, A flange shall be of one of the following types, as specified by the purchaser: e_ number 2 of " Welding neck 3 Plate, for welding 4 Screwed boss 5 Slip-on boss 8 Plate, blank PRESSURE RATING. The pressure rating of a flange?) shall be 250, 600, 1 000, 1 600, 2 500, 4 000 kPa, as specified ty the purchaser. TOEWPIFICATION, A flange shall be identified by its nominal size (DN), i.e, the nominal size (internal diameter) of the pipe with which it is intended to be used, and a designation that is used as the table reference and that consists of the mumerical value of the flange pressure rating (NP) in kilopascals followed by its type mumber (the two being separated by an oblique stroke, e.g, 25/2). CONSTRUCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS MATERIAL ‘A flange shall be made of easily veldable low carbon steel ‘the chemical composition and ical properties of which comply with the following requirements 4): a) Chemical composition Carbon, %, max. + 0,25 Manganese, % max. : 1,5 Sulphur, %, max. 2 0,05 Phosphorus, % max. 1 0,05 b) Mechanical properties Tensile strane (R,), MPa, ain, Yield stress (Ry), MPa, min.
