Lethal Service - Carcinogen 5

[Clareok]

We have a new vesssel to design. The vessel Contents are deemed to be "highly carcinogenic, which have the ability to penetrate the skn causing serious harm".

Does my vessel fall under UW-2?

I give up.... I can't state things any simpler.

Too many MBAs on these fora

The Europeans have lists of dangerous/lethal substances and it is not up to the newbie hardware purchaser or vessel designer to play bio-chemist. Plant Management, as we all know, will delegate difficult and costly decisions downward......

Lets just stick with the nightmare ASME methodology we have now...
