Adapter/Transition Fitting Connections
Taper pipe threads, except dryseal, shall be in compliance with ASME B1.20.1 or ASTM F1498.
Dryseal pipe threads shall be in compliance with ASME B1.20.3.
Cast copper alloy, wrought copper alloy and copper alloy solder joint connections shall comply with the dimensional requirements of ASME B16.18 or ASME B16.22.
Pressure and Temperature
The minimum pressure shall be 125.0 psi (861.8 kPa) at a minimum temperature of 180.0 °F (82.2 °C).
