ASME B16.23 Document Information:
Title
Cast Copper Alloy Solder Joint Drainage Fittings: DWV
ASME International
Publication Date:
Nov 8, 2002
Scope:
General
This Standard establishes specifications for cast copper alloy solder
joint drainage fittings,
designed for use in drain, waste, and vent (DWV) systems. These
fittings are designed for use with
seamless copper tube conforming to ASTM B 306, Copper Drainage Tube
(DWV), as well as fittings
intended to be assembled with soldering materials conforming to ASTM B
32, or tapered pipe thread
conforming to ASME B1.20.1.
This standard is allied with ASME B16.29, Wrought Copper and Wrought
Copper Alloy Solder Joint
Drainage Fittings - DWV.
It provides requirements for fitting ends suitable for soldering. This
standard covers:
(a) description;
(b) pitch (slope);
(c) abbreviations for end connections;
(d) sizes and methods for designing openings for reducing fittings;
(e) marking;
(f) material; and
(g) dimensions and tolerances.
Convention
For the purpose of determining conformance with this Standard, the
convention for fixing
significant digits where limits and maximum or minimum values are
specified shall be "rounding off"
as defined in ASTM E 29. This requires that an observed or calculated
value shall be rounded off to
the nearest unit in the last right-hand digit used for expressing the
limit.
Units of Measure
The values stated in either SI (metric) or U.S. Customary (inch-lb.)
units of measure shall be
regarded separately as standard. Within the main text, SI units are
given. For convenience, the
customary units are shown in Mandatory Appendix I. The values stated
in each system are not exact
equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the
other.
NOTE: Combining values from the two systems may result in
nonconformance with the Standard.
References
Standards and specifications adopted by reference in this Standard are
shown in Mandatory Appendix
II, which is part of this Standard. It is not considered practical to
identify the specific edition
of each standard and specification in the individual references.
Instead, the specific edition
reference is identified in Mandatory Appendix II.
Quality Systems
Requirements relating to the product manufacturer's Quality System
Programs are described in
Nonmandatory Appendix A.
