Non-Destructive Examination (NDE) is a crucial aspect of the manufacturing process for pressure vessels and boilers. It involves a variety of techniques to detect flaws and defects without damaging the material. For U-Stamp certified products, NDE is essential to ensure the integrity and safety of the equipment.
A U-Stamp is a certification mark issued by the National Board of Boiler and Pressure Vessel Inspectors (NBBPVI). It signifies that a pressure vessel has been manufactured and inspected in accordance with the rigorous standards outlined in the ASME® Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (BPVC).
A UM-Stamp is a certification mark issued by the National Board of Boiler and Pressure Vessel Inspectors (NBBPVI). It authorizes a manufacturer to repair and alter existing pressure vessels and boilers. This certification ensures that repairs and alterations are performed in accordance with the ASME® Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (BPVC).
A U2-Stamp is a certification mark issued by the National Board of Boiler and Pressure Vessel Inspectors (NBBPVI). It authorizes a manufacturer to repair and alter existing pressure vessels and boilers. This certification ensures that repairs and alterations are performed in accordance with the rigorous standards outlined in the ASME® Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (BPVC).
An S-Stamp is a certification mark issued by the National Board of Boiler and Pressure Vessel Inspectors (NBBPVI). It signifies that a manufacturer is authorized to build and stamp power boilers, which are pressure vessels designed to generate steam for various applications, such as power generation, heating, and industrial processes.
The PP-Stamp is a certification mark issued by the National Board of Boiler and Pressure Vessel Inspectors (NBBPVI). It signifies that a manufacturer is authorized to weld, fit, manufacture, and install piping and components that attach to external piping used for power boilers and pressure vessels.
An ASME® Joint Review is a rigorous process conducted by the National Board of Boiler and Pressure Vessel Inspectors (NBBPVI) to assess the quality and safety of pressure vessels and boilers.
Applicants for new issuance or renewal of an ASME® Certificate(s) of Authorization should be aware that the Joint Review will require implementation and demonstration of their Quality Control Program. The purpose of the demonstration is to have the Applicant provide evidence of their knowledge of and compliance with requirements of each Certificate and scope they are requesting.
