If there isn't the factory would do well to collate and publish one.

The only clue as to where you live is your spelling of "color" - when asking for standards it always helps to know location.

See this thread, it has quite a lot of information on the subject.

OSHA Standard 29CR1910.144 calls for the marking of physical hazards and as for pipes and all others, Refer to ANSI Z53.1, Z35.1, Z35.2, Z35.4, and if you have any radio frequency radiation hazards, use ANSI C95.2

Are you in the U.S.? If so I pulled all that information out of an Industrial Sherwin-Williams company color chart. Call 800-524-5979 to have one of there experts help you. (that would be free help)

Hope that helps

The U.S. Navy has a color standard for pipes aboard ships. If you now don't have a standard to go by, the navy one would be a good standard. Not sure where to look for it.
