ASME & minimum pressure vessel sizing

ASME & minimum pressure vessel sizing

ASME & minimum pressure vessel sizing

(OP)
I am fabricating a pressure vessel for a testwork facility which requires 5 x individual sampling bombs equally spaced along the vessel of approx 300mls volume each. Does anyone know if these sample bombs require 100% NDT under the code?

RE: ASME & minimum pressure vessel sizing

Unless I'm mistaken, ASME VIII Div. 1 does not require any NDT. I'm aware of at least one case where a refinery didn't specify the level of NDT and received a vessel with no RT and I think a 70% joint efficiency.

Next time you post a vessel question, keep in mind that you'll reach a more targeted audience at forum794: Boiler and Pressure Vessel engineering.
