What is the difference between B16.10 and B 16.34 when specifying a valve? Does B16.34 cover both the pressure ratings and dimensions?

You've touched a nerve with some with the title to your post, there have been some recent lively discussions on the forum, you can do a search, but it is ASME valve standards, not ANSI.

16.10 mainly deals with valve dimensioning while 16.34 is the recognized & recommended standard for spec'ing valves.
