Help needed in understanding pressure vessel nameplate
(OP)
Hello,
Would you be able to interpret the nameplate info on this vessel?
We are using an older (1960s) pressure vessel, the nameplate reads
CRN. 4800.5.
N.S.P. 3442.
TS.55000.
W.P.236.TEMP.354.
SH.4375.HDS.387.
UW.12.C.31.10.62.
H.W.C.
This is what we know:
CRN is Canadian Registration Number
WP is working (or max) pressure
TEMP is working (or max) temperature
UW denotes the type of welding
31.10.62 seems to be the manufacturing date
Thank you.

TS might be Tensile Strength= 55000 psig
RE: Help needed in understanding pressure vessel nameplate
The volume of the vessel is of a particular interest... But unsure if it is listed in one of the numbers in the nameplate
RE: Help needed in understanding pressure vessel nameplate
UW.12.C, neither spot nor full RT, again a guess.
Agree w/ Frank1344, no guesses on the rest.
Regards,
Mike
