Plate patch
Plate patch
(OP)
Hi everyone.
Would anybody be able to lead me in the right direction in finding a reference where it says that I can take off a cap and replace it with a plate for a pressure vessel. The pressure vessel is rated at 70 psig.
Thanks in advance,

What does your PV insurance company say about the change?
RE: Plate patch
I'm trying to cut an existing nozzle/cap and put a lapped patch over it. What I found was API 653 section 9.3.2
Is there any more references I can go by and would API 653 section 9.3.2 be a sufficient reference?
Thanks in advance,

RE: Plate patch
It states if the shell is greater than 1/2" then I will not be able to, is this correct? If so where can I find a method to patching a 5/8" thick shell?
Thanks in advance,
