Why mark pipes?
Pipe markers or pipe labels aid in the quick identification of a pipe’s contents,
especially in an emergency situation. A successful pipe labelling identification
program and pipe colour coding helps employees, contractors and emergency services to distinguish
between pipes where there are several side by side.
Where should pipe markers be located?
AS1345 specifies that cable markers be placed next to all junctions, valves,
service appliances, bulkhead and wall penetrations. Markers shall be placed
no more than 8m apart except for long,
uninterrupted straight runs of external services where spacing shall not
exceed 50m.
