ASME Section III, Class 3 Valve W/ "N" Stamp
ASME Section III, Class 3 Valve W/ "N" Stamp
(OP)
Hi,
I am working on a modification that requires the replacement of ASME Section III, Class 3 valve which requires the "N" stamp. The valve is needed for the upcoming outage that is 2 months from now. Unfortunately, the lead time for new valve is no less than 48 weeks. I am reaching out to other utilities to locate a valve that I can use. What I need to know is what process to I need to follow to qualify the new valve for my application and how long the process takes.
Thanks

You can try Wier valve. They do have a "N" stamp program and I know they can turn parts for safety related valves very quickly. However I'm not sure if they can do it with full valves.
