ASME 8 Div 1 certification process for PV
ASME 8 Div 1 certification process for PV
(OP)
Hi all - just wanted to preface this thread by saying you guys are all fantastic contributors and I have learned quite a bit by reading through some of the responses.
My question however, is in regard to certifying PV's post-manufacturing. We have an ASME 8 Div 1 tank with 1 liquid phase inlet and 1 gas phase inlet, but we need a second liquid phase inlet installed. In speaking with some of the certifying authorities (BV, CCS, DNV, etc.), some say it would take 2 months just to get the drawing certified, not to mention the work to be done on the tank itself.
I am well aware that ASME 8 Div 1 only pertains to new builds.
Anyone have any idea about this sort of procedure? Thanks in advance and keep up the good work!

Type in your jurisdiction (state or province) and R for the stamp and you will get a list of R certificate holders. Adding a fitting like an existing fitting is not a big deal. Not sure why anyone is talking about a certified drawing, that is not a Code requirement.
Good luck.
