D.1 Application of ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Section VIII, Div.2 or AD
Merkablatt or BS 5500 shall be considered for Construction of Pressure Vessel
when any of the following conditions are met;
D.2 When a Vessel unit consists of more than one Independent Pressure Chamber, different
Code may be applied to each Chamber. In such a case, only the combination of
ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Section VIII, Div.1 and Div.2 is acceptable.
D.3 When the equipment is fabricated to the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Section
VIII, Div.2, the VENDOR shall have a current U2 accreditation although Code Stamping is
not required for the Equipment.
D.4 When the design code is not ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Section VIII, Div.1
or Div.2, VENDOR shall check the consistency of the code requirement and the
requirement of the Pressure Vessels, D-101 (21100-4-8430-SP-0001) and Heat
Exchangers, E-101 (21100-4-8480-SP-0001), specifications and shall inform any

E.1 General
This Appendix covers the Minimum Requirements required for Materials, Fabrication
and Testing of Heat Exchangers in the specific environments listed below.
(2) Caustic
(3) Amine
E.2 Requirements
E.2.1 General
E.2.1.2 Stabilized Austenitic Stainless Steel, such as Type 321, 347, shall be solution Annealed
before Fabrication. Maximum Temperature of Solution Annealing shall be 1060 °C.
E.2.1.3 Plates shall be through-thickness tested in accordance with ASTM A770. Three test
specimens, subjected to anticipated heat treatment cycle, are taken through the
thickness. Minimum average reduction (“Z” parameter) of area on the three specimens
shall not be less than 35% of the initial cross section.
E.2.3 Caustic
E.2.3.1 PWHT shall be performed when required by the Caustic S oda Service graph in
“Corrosion Data Survey” of NACE. The Temperature shown in the graph shall be
Operating Temperature of Equipment except that it shall be Metal Temperature for
Tubes of Heat Exchanger.
E.2.4 Amine
E.2.4.2 PWHT shall be performed at Temperature from 595 °C up to 650 °C for 1 hour per 25
mm of thickness with a minimum of 1 hour.
When Austenitic Stainless Steel is selected in Polythionic Acid Class Equipment, the
following restrictions are Mandatory.
E.2.5.1 Stabilized Type Stainless Steel shall be used. If Maximum Metal Temperature is less
than 350 °C, Low Carbon Type Austenitic Stainless Steel may be approved.
E.2.5.2 For Plate, Pipe, Tube and Forged Material, the following restriction on Chemical
Composition shall be satisfied.
E.2.5.3 U-Tubes after bending shall be Solution Heat Treated. The Maximum Temperature of
Solution Treatment shall be 1050 °C.
When Type 304H Stainless Steel is used at Elevated Temperature above 450 °C, Ferrite
Content at weld shall be from 3% up to 8%.
