Jic Pneumatic Standards

PNEUMATIC PNEUMATIC ST STANDARD ANDARDS S for INDUSTRIAL EQUIPMENT and GENERAL PURPOSE MACHINE TOOLS P-1-1975 FOREWORD Users and suppliers of industrial equipment, as well as the component manufacturers, have long recognized that the safety of   personnel and uninterrupted production are of cardinal importance to the economic growth of industry. The application of pneumatics to industrial equipment resulted in preparation of the first  pneumatic standard over 20 years ago. This is the latest revision of  that standard. This revision has been written as a General Purpose Pneumatic Standard and has been extended, where noted, to Mass Production Equipment, as well as to the type of engineering considered desirable. This standard is basic in nature, that is, it does not contain any requirements specific to any one industry, industry, company, division, or plant.

All JIC standards are advisory only. only. Their use in industry or  trade is entirely voluntary. The JIC assumes no liability for any patent infringements or  asserted patent infringements which may result from the use of this standard. Comments or requests for information regarding JIC activities or interpretation of the JIC standards should be addressed to the Secretary of the Joint Industrial Council, 7 901 Westpark Westpark Drive, McLean, VA 22101. Proposals to change this JIC Pneumatic Standard are considered in the Joint Ind ustrial Council meetings held at intervals for this purpose. Future revisions will include application requirements for those fields that become so closely associated with the pneumatic science as to be deemed a part thereof. No additions, revisions, or deletions shall be made hereto when reproduced as the JIC Pneumatic Standard for In dustrial Equipment.

The JIC Pneumatic Standard Committee which prepared this standard was composed of: T.F. Graffy - Chairman Airmatic/Beckett-Harcum W.A. Burton Lawrence Livermore Laboratory C.A. Cross Ford Motor Company W.F. Diehl General Motors Corporation R.D. Forney Cincinnati Milacron Inc. J.P Jenny Aluminum Company of America H.R. Kutcher  Aluminum Company of America A.J.

 Purposes. This Pneumatic Equipment Data Form PE1.1  Purposes.  provides the purchaser with a concise means of communication with the supplier in providing data required for proper and acceptable application application of pneumatic power to mass p roduction industrial equipment. The use of the Data Form assures the  purchaser of quotations based on information furnished and equipment desired. Form . The purchaser should issue a JIC PE1.2  Issue of Data Form. Pneumatic Equipment Data Form, marked “Original”, with each section of the form filled in according to inf ormation known at the time of issuance. The completed form should be attached to the purchaser’s inquiry for mass production industrial equipment. When the Data Form is used and later additional information becomes available, or when negotiated agreements  between the purchaser and the supplier negate the original information furnished, the purchaser shall issue a revised Data Form, marked “Revised”, with the revision numbered and dated. Included Data. PE2.0 Information. Sections 1 through 8 of the Data PE2.1  Known Information. Form should be filled in according to known information at the time the purchaser’s inquiry is originated. Equipment . The description of the PE2.2  Description of Equipment . equipment should be equivalent to that given in the title block  on drawings, and should include the part or component name(s) and number(s), if applicable, and the operation or process number. Technical Information. Information . The name of the individual PE2.3 listed for technical information should be the pneumatic en2 fleer, or other qualified person(s), designated to review  preliminary and final drawings. Instructions to Builder. Builder. PE3.0 Section 1. 1. The purchaser should specify to which PE3.l version of this JIC Pneumatic Standard for Industrial Equipment, supplement(s), or other standard he requires conformance. The purchaser should provide reference to, or  information relative to. the applicable state or local code. When no standard is specified by the purchaser. the supplier’s standard shall be deemed acceptable. Section 2. Maximum operating pressure, and line PE3.2 flow velocity, velocity, when other than that specified in this standard, should be specified. Section 3. 3. Regional and environmental conditions PE3.3 that may affect the pneumatic equipment or its operating characteristics characteristics should be listed.

Section 4. 4 . The purchaser should indicate the type and PE3.4 quantity of other services available at the installation area or  nearby. Section 5. 5 . The purchaser should designate the type(s) PE3.5 of diagrams and drawings required for preliminary review. review. These diagrams and drawings shall be provided as copies or  reproducibles as required. The person designated to receive the final drawing should  be the engineer responsible for the application or other  qualified person responsible for the preservation and control of  the drawings. Field changes are subject to provisions of P1.1 2.3. Section 6 . Purchaser’s drawing numbers assigned to PE3.6 the pneumatic circuit and the equipment to which the circuit is applied, if different, should be shown. Where numbers are not available at the time the inquiry is originated, they should be included with the purchase order or as soon thereafter as assigned. Section 7 . The purchaser should use this section to PE3.7 emphasize particular and previously stated requirements, statements of policy, and general data. Section 8. 8 . The purchaser should list all unusual PE3.8 environmental conditions, required deviations from the specified standard, and additional safety requirements. Applicable labor conditions, unusual operating conditions and/or problems, supply or material handling problems, and other special requirements should also be shown. Section 9 This section should be filled in by the PE3.9  purchaser only where his selection of components is advantageous relative to his inventories, component  procurement, and/or his equipment maintenance. Such  preference should be based on design requirements, operational experience, and inventory consideration. Information provided in Section 9 of the Data For m should specify general type of  function of the equipment or component and should include the rnanufacturer’s name and size, group. or series to which the equipment or components belong (not a specific model designation) in accordance with the p urchaser’s preference. When no equipment preference is specified, the supplier’s choice shall be acceptable. The order of the purchaser ’s preference should be indicated numerically (1.2.3) in the space provided immediately preceding the listing of the preferred component or equipment. When the order of pr eference is omitted,  preferred equipment or components listed shall be considered equally acceptable.
