A
pressure vessel is a closed, rigid, container designed to hold gases
or liquids at a pressure different from the ambient pressure.
In
the industrial sector, pressure vessels are designed to operate
safely at a specific pressure and temperature, technically referred
to as the Design pressure and Design temperature. A
vessel that is inadequately designed to handle a high pressure
constitutes a very significant safety hazard. Because of that, the
design and certification of pressure vessels is governed by design
codes such as the ASME boiler and pressure vessel code (BPVC) in
North America, the pressure equipments directive of the Eu (PED).
Japanese industrial standard (JIS), CSA B51 in Canada and other
international standards.
CCE
approved vessels are also supplied upto 50³ capacities with
pressure range from 1 to 50kg/mm2
