I mean if the maximum hydrostatic pressure out of PED and ASME is used to design pressure vessel having:
Material - 316L ST. STL and working condition
MAWP = 10 Bar at 120 degree celcius

Materials used are ASME material.

2)Do I need to carry out marking and testing as per PED as it is to be used in European Market.

Any views greatly appreciated.
Many thanks

Hi David,

The answer can be yes provide certain criteria are met. See the attached link to an ASME publication.
I know of companies that buld ASME vessels is the US and receive CE marks. They use TUV for this work, see attached link.
I hope this helps you get started.
