What is the equivalent of BS 1873 in API standard?

BS Standard is a Specification for steel globe and globe stop and check valves (flanged and butt-welding ends) for the petroleum, petrochemical and allied industries the list below are standards that i wish help to you API 600 API 6D API 6A ASME B16.5 ASME B16.34


What is the difference between ASME U and U1 stamps?

The ASME U stamp designates an unfired pressure vessel of more than 35 gallons (4.68 cu. ft.) has been built to ASME Code specifications, under ASME Code section 8. A U-1 form must be filed and signed by the authorized inspector for each and every pressure vessel built. The ASME U2 stamp is for unfired pressure vessels not built to ASME section 8 div. 1 standards, but under the alternative rules, has been inspected and found to comply with acceptable construction methods. A U-1 form signed by an authorized inspector must be filed for each such vessel, along with a description of the methods of construction used. The ASME U3 stamp is for high pressure (over 600 psi?) unfired pressure vessels. The ASME UM stamp is for pressure vessels less than 35 gallons capacity.

What is the minimum design pressure in ASME sec viii?

ASME Section XIII does not define a minimum design pressure. Many vessels are designed for full vacuum according to the requirements of the code. A storage tank (API 650 or API 620) can be used in place of a pressure vessel provided that the gage pressure is not more than 15 pounds per square inch.


What is the difference between API and intermediates?

The raw material is a compound that is used as the basis for making an API. an API is not made from raw material by just one reaction, but by a variety of compounds that become API. the compounds that are being transformed from raw materials into APIs are called intermediates.
