Gents,
I'm quite new to pressure vessel codes, I usually deal with a specialized pump part. Vessels are used as part of a support system to keep the part I'm familiar with cool and clean while in service. I hear my customers talk about requirements for a U stamped vessel when the internal diameter of the vessel is greater than or equal to 6". I've dealt with that before when working for a company with a division that manufactured of vessels who could provide a U-stamp. I now work for another company who provides vessels built to meet both AMSE VIII Division 1 and TUV/PED 97/23EC standards. I'm interested in the differences between vessels built to AMSE VII Div 1 and those with U-stamp. For all I know it may really be a matter of keeping paperwork on file.
