Wang WF Hare INTRODUCTION SCOPE va SCOPE vita) U-I(a(1) The Foreword provides the basis for the rules described in this Division, U-I(a)(2) For the scope of this Division, pressure vessels are containers for the containment of pressure, either internal or external. This pressure may be obtained from an external source, o by the application of heat om: a direct or indirect source, or any combination thereof, U-1(2)(3} This Division contains mandatory requirements, specific prohibitions, and nonmandatory ‘guidance for pressure vessel materials, design, fabrica- tion, examination, inspection, testing, certification, and pressure relief, The Code does not address all aspects of these activities, and those aspects which are not speci cally addressed should not be considered prohibited. Engineering judgment must be consistent with the philos- ‘ophy of this Division, and such judgments must never be used to overrule mandatory requirements or specific prohibitions of this Division. See also informative and nonmandatory guidance regarding metallurgical phenom~ cena in Appendix A of Section II, Part D. U-1(b) This Division is divided imto three Subsections, Mandatory Appendices, and Nonmandatory Appendices. Subsection A consists of Part UG, covering the general requirements applicable (0 all pressure vessels. Subsec- sion B covers specific requirements that are applicable to the various methods used in the fabrication of pressure vessels. It consists of Parts UW, UF, and UB dealing with welded, forged, and brazed methods, respectively Subsection C covers specific requirements applicable to the several classes of materials used in pressure vessel construction. It consists of Parts UCS, UNF, UHA, UCI, UCL, UCD, UHT, ULW, and ULT dealing with carbon and Jow alloy steels, nonferrous metals, high alloy steels, cast iron, clad and lined material, cast ductile iron, ferritic steels with properties enhanced by heat treatment, layered construction, and low temperature materials, respectively Section II, Part also contains tables of maximum allow- able stress values for these classes of materials ‘The Mandatory Appendices address specific subjects ‘ot covered elsewhere in this Division, and their require- ‘ments are mandatory when te subject covered is included in construction under this Division. The Nonmandatory Appendices provide information and suggested good practices. U-o) U-1(e}(1) The scope ofthis Division has beznestab- lished to identify the components and parameters consid ered in formulating the rules given inthis Division. Laws or regulations issued by municipality, state, provincial, federal, or other enforcement or regulatory bodies having §urisdiction at the location ofan installation establish the mandatory applicability of the Code rules, in whole or in part, within ther jurisdiction. Those laws o regulations may requite the use of this Division of the Code for vessels oF components not considered to be within its Scope. These laws or regulations should be reviewed to determine size or Service limitations of the coverage which may be different or more restrictive than those given here. U-1(c}2) Based on the Committee's consideration, the following classes of vessels are not included in the scope of this Division; however, any pressure vessel which meets al the applicable requirements ofthis Divi- sion may be stamped with the Code U Symbol {a) those within the scope of other Seetions; {) fired process tubular heaters; {c) pressure containers which are integral pars ‘or components of rotating or reciprocating mechanical devices, such as pumps, compressors, tarines, genera- tors, engines, and hydraulic or pneumatic cylinders where the primary design considerations and/or stresses are derived from the functional requirements of the device; {(d) except as covered in U-1(N, structures whose primary function is the tansportof fluids from one Toca tion to another within a system of which it is an integral part, tht is, piping systems; () piping components, such as pipe, flanges, bolting, gaskets, valves, expansion joint, fitings, and the pressure containing pars of other componenis, such as strainers and devices which serve such purposes as mix- ing. separating, snubbing, distributing, and metering or A058: va 2004 SECTION Vi controlling flow, provided that pressure containing parts of such components are generally recognized as piping ‘companeats OF accessories; (fa vessel for containing water’ under pressure, including those containing air the compression of which serves only as a cushion, when none of the following limitations are exceeded (1) @ design pressure of 300 psi (2 MPa); (2) a design temperature of 210°F (99°C); (g) a hot water supply storage tank heated by steam or any other indirect means when none of the following limitations is exceeded: (2) a heat input of 200,000 Btu/hr (58.6 kW); (2) a water temperature of 210°F (99°C); (3) a nominal water containing capacity of 120 gal (450 L); (h) vessels having an internal or external operating pressure (see 3-2) not exceeding 15 psi (100 kPa) with no limitation on size [see UG-28(F) and 9-10) (i) vessels having an inside diameter, width, height, or eross section diagonal not exceeding 6 in. (152 mm), with no limitation on length of vessel or pressure; Gj) pressure vessels for human occupancy ? U-H(d) The utes ofthis Division have been formulated on the basis of design principles and construction prac- tices applicable to vessels designed for pressures not exceeding 3000 psi (20 MPa). For pressures above 3000 psi (20 MPa), deviations from and additions to these rules usually are necessary to meet the requirements of design principles and construction practices for these higher pressures. Only in the event that after having applied these additional design principles and construction practices the vestel sill complies with all of the requirements ofthis Division may it be stamped with the applicable Code symbol U-i(e) In relation to the geometry of pressure con- taining parts, the scope of this Division shall include the following: U-Ie)(1) where externa) piping; other pressure ves- sels including heat exchangers; or mechanical devices, such as pumps, mixers, or compressors, are to be cone nected to the vessel: (a) the welding. end connection for the first cir- cumferential joint for welded connections [see UW-3@: The water may coniain aves provided the ash point ofthe _4queous solution tsmoaphene presse is 185°F or higher, The Bash pont shall be determined by Uwe methods spesied in ASTM D 93 oe In ASTM D'56, whichever is appropiate. * Requirements for pressure vestl or human occupancy are covered by ANSI/ASME PVHO-1 va DIVISION 1 (8) the first threaded joint for serewed connec- sions; (c) the face ofthe first lange for bold, flanged connections; {d) the frst sealing surface for proprietary con- nections oF fitings; U-I(e)(2) where nonpressure parts are welded directly to either the intemal or exteral pressure retaining surface of a pressure vessel, this scope shall include the design, fabrication, testing, and material requirements established for nonpressure part attachments bythe appli- cable paragraphs of this Division;?
