About This Item

 

Full Description

Product Scope / Abstract

This Section provides requirements for construction of an FRP pressure vessel in conformance with a manufacturer's design report.  It includes production, processing, fabrication, inspection and testing methods required for the vessel.  Section X includes three Classes of vessel design; Class I and Class III - qualification through the destructive test of a prototype and Class II - mandatory design rules and acceptance testing by nondestructive methods.  These vessels are not permitted to store, handle or process lethal fluids.  Vessel fabrication is limited to the following processes: bag-molding, centrifugal casting and filament-winding and contact molding.  General specifications for the glass and resin materials and minimum physical properties for the composite materials are given.

Intended for manufacturers, users, constructors, designers and others concerned with the design, fabrication, assembly, erection, examination, inspection and testing of pressure vessels, plus all potential governing entities.
