This recommended practice supplements API 570 by providing piping inspectors with information that can improve their skills and increase their basic knowledge of inspection practices. This recommended practice describes inspection practices for piping, tubing, valves (other than control valves), and fittings used in petroleum refineries and chemical plants. Common piping components, valve types, pipe joining methods, inspection planning processes, inspection intervals and techniques, and types of records are described to aid the inspectors in fulfilling their role in implementing API 570. This publication does not cover the inspection of specialty items, including instrumentation, furnace tubulars, and control valves.
