Valve symbols on piping isometrics
Valves on an isometric use the same bodies as on a P&ID, with their end connections drawn: flanges, weld dots or threaded marks. The stem shows which way the handwheel or actuator points.
Valves
The valve tag, size and rating come from the P&ID and the line list; the isometric adds where the valve sits, which way it faces and how it is connected. See the P&ID valve symbols for the same bodies on a P&ID.
Check valves and control valves are directional, so the flow arrow on the line matters when they are installed.
