Understanding Swedish Pressure Vessel Spec Plate
Understanding Swedish Pressure Vessel Spec Plate
(OP)
I hope someone out there has knowledge of Swedish pressure vessels. I have just inspected a small air receiver with a very faded printed & stamped aluminium specification plate. From the little I can read (shown "****" below), I think it originated in Sweden.
"Ar" - Year? "73"
"Ma" - Month? "5"
"HTT 10" - is this 10 bar design pressure?;
"5643" - serial number?
"KTTA 600/350" - is this the design code or the manufacturer and model number;
"Besman JB" - Inspector?
The vessel passed a pressure test (15bar) and thickness survey so I am reluctant to pension it off just yet but I would like to be sure I have interpreted the specification correctly.
