Standing pressure vessel equipped 500 l - 11 bar

Connections for pressure vessels

• each pressure vessel is equipped with different connections
• the vessel must be fitted with suitable fittings before installation
• according to the relevant standards, each pressure vessel must be equipped with:
  - fittings for closure
  - safety valve
  - a pressure gauge
  - the discharge valve
• the manufacturer/supplier is obliged to supply the pressure vessel:
  - EC Declaration of Conformity (based on the European P.E.D. Directive)
  - the pressure vessel type certificate (EC-type examination) on the basis of which the declaration of conformity was issued
  - instructions for use in the relevant language

Pressure assemblies

• after the fittings have been assembled on the pressure vessel, the organisation that carried out the assembly becomes the manufacturer of the pressure assembly
• before commissioning, the pressure assembly must be assessed by an authorised organisation, a notified person (e.g. TÜV, Det Norske Veritas, SZU, etc.)
• the assessment shall check in particular:
  - documentation for the pressure vessel
  - documentation for all components (taps, connecting valve, pressure gauge)
  - whether the components comply with the applicable standards (in particular CSN 69 0010 and CSN 69 0012)
  - method and execution of fittings installation according to standards
• assessment of the pressure assembly is a paid service, the price of which is very high for individual cases (usually around 10,000 - 15,000 CZK)

Airborne Program

• To ease the worries with the legislation of pressure assemblies, we offer the delivery of an air tank fitted with the necessary fittings
• under the order no. ending with the letter "A" (e.g. VVP270-11A) you will receive the pressure vessel including:
  - ball valve at inlet and outlet
  - ball valve for sludge removal
  - safety valve
  - pressure gauge
  - test cock
  - blanking fittings
• The delivery of the container includes:
  - tÜV pressure unit certification
  - pressure vessel passport
  Due to the mass production, the price for the assessment of the pressure assembly is significantly lower on a flat rate basis between VSK and TÜV - it is only 3.360,- CZK excluding VAT

Additional customer obligations related to pressure vessels

• the pressure vessel is a dedicated pressure equipment within the meaning of Decree No. 18/1979 Coll.
• with its operation, the user has the following obligations given by laws, decrees and technical standards:

Revision (according to ČSN 69 0012):

• immediately after installation, carry out the initial and first operational inspection
• 1x yearly operational audit
• every 5 years - internal inspection, leakage test
• every 9 years - pressure test

Organizational / operational matters:

• appoint a review technician
• appoint a person responsible for the operation of pressure vessels
• appoint pressure vessel operators (every 3 years review - carried out by a review engineer)
• keep appropriate records of pressure vessels and ensure the routine operational tasks described in the standard (checks of pressure gauges, thermometers, safety valve, vessel condition, etc.)
