Thanks rconner, you are right :) 580F is occasional, for times when we have to drain hot oil drips.
Based on your comment, can I assume for such temperature there will be no option but welded carbon steel piping? Even ductile iron will be out of options?
Thanks again.
I am preparing a piping spec for a condensate treatment facilty. We have a UG oily water sewer which will be atmospheric and the temprature would raise up to 580F. The required service life is 20 years.
Can anyone help me with material selection? The given options are carbon steel, ductile cast...
