Pipe Color Code

The document provides a color coding chart for identifying different types of pipes. It lists the color, material piped, identification, division, and designation. For example, red pipes are for carbon dioxide, fire service water, steam (high pressure), and exhaust systems. Yellow pipes are for acids, high pressure air, ammonia, steam (high and low pressure), boiler feed water, hot water, and high pressure water. The color coding system allows easy identification of the contents in pipes for various mechanical and utility systems.
