R Stamp Requirement :: Plate Heat Exchanger :: Addition of Plates
(OP)
We have a Plate Heat Exchanger that is U stamped. We now intend increasing the heat duty by installing additional plates in the heat exchanger. The plates are manufactured by stamping ( pressing) and do not involve any welding. The installation is by Bolting and does not involve any welds. I would like to receive advice if this modification will require following the "R" stamp " Alteration" process?

Thanks once again.

One more question. For the additional plates, is it enough for the supplier to furnish a Certificate of Compliance instead of U Part Report. As the plate does not involve any welds, is a certificate of compliance by the manufacturer adequate? I am reading NBIC Part 3 Section 3 Clause 3.2.2. Please advice.

I am preparing just in case my client wants to go for the R stamp process.

Thanks very much. Certificate of compliance from an ASME Certificate Holder - Is this in a specific format available in Code? or is this in a format designed by the ASME certificate holder?
Please reply.
