Pressure Vessels

European Design Codes

Our vessels are strength calculated and designed according to one of the following European (PED compliant) design codes:

• EN 13445
• AD Merkblätter - AD 2000

 

Design Pressure

The majority of the pressure vessels we produce is designed to withstand a design pressure between -1bar_(g) (total vacuum) and max. 52 bar_(g).

Dimensions

The sizing range of the vessels we regularly produce is  usually anywhere between 0.1 - 50 m³ (100 - 50.000 litres).

Not all vessel sizes are available throughout the available application pressure range, as high pressures and large cylinder diameters represent a significant increase of material thickness, nearing production limits.

Internal Features

The internal features (which are usually made of steel pipes, elbows, reducers, T-parts, bent sheet plates, perforated plates and similar) differ from vessel to vessel, and heavily depend on the client's functional design proposal and experience (we do not interfere with the clients on the requested layout of the internal parts, we just draw and manufacture these).

In certain cases, we weld or mount interior 3rd party parts, delivered to us by the client (e.g. demisters, wired meshes or similar).

Vessels Delivery, Equipment

Our vessels are delivered fully tested (NDT of the welds as per the design code and pressure tested acc. to PED or BSEI/CTP requirements) and PED certified by Notified Body (TÜV SÜD).

The vessels are shotblasted (interior/exterior) and coated by a quality industrial primer or primer+top coating layer(s).

The vessels are delivered with blinded nozzles/connections, and usually filled by slight N2 overpressure for the transport/site storage purposes.

We ship the vessels in majority of the  cases as "bare", with no equipment or accessories.

Engineering, CAD, 3D Models / 2D Drawings

The production of ordered vessels is based on a detailed engineering and CAD work (strength calculation, 3D modeling, 2D production drawings and other). The vessel shape and interior is largely determined by the client's input data, input sketches/drawing and other input info.

We send the client the drawings for the functional review/approval, thus the clients always have full control of the final vessel features to be manufactured.

Send us a RFQ!

Request a quotation from us whenever you require pressure or non-pressure vessels (e.g. storage tanks, surge drums, refrigeration vessels, air vessels, liquid receivers, process containers etc) for your project, anywhere where a carbon steel is applicable.

We will need a certain minimal set of input data to prepare a quotation

• D = Diameter of the Vessel Cylinder
• L = Length of the Vessel Cylinder
• PD min/max = Min./Max. Design Pressure
• TD min/max = Min./Max. Design Temperature
• N = number of Nozzles/Connections, and their respective diameters
• Interior details, description
• Input Sketch (even a hand made sketch works well) or a Drawing
• Working medium, compatible with carbon steel
• Execution = Horizontal/Vertical
• Number of vessels required
• Other details considered relevant
