Dividing standards of pressure levels
Low pressure pipe: 0≤P≤1.6MPa
Medium pressure pipe: 1.6
High pressure pipe: 10
Ultra high pressure pipe: P>100MPa
There are many classification methods for pressure vessels, division type is as per the usage, manufacturing and supervision as below:
1. The level of pressure: low pressure vessels, medium pressure vessels, high pressure vessels and super-high pressure vessels.
2. Filling matter: non-flammable, non-toxic; flammable or toxic; highly toxic.
3. The role of processing technology:
Reaction vessel: Completing physical and chemical reaction of medium.
Heat exchanger: Completing the medium heat exchange.
Storage vessel: Completing the medium mass exchange, gas purification and solid, liquid, gas separation
Separator vessel:
Used for the completion of the medium of mass exchange, gas purification, solid,
liquid, gas separation of the container.
