  • For screw connection to external pipe, the scope covers the first screw connection.
  • For flange connection to external pipe, the scope covers the first flange.
  • If attachments are welded directly to the internal pressure part, the scope covers that weld joint.
  • The scope includes pressurized covering plates for manhole or handhole, weld joint, bolts & nuts, and gaskets.
  • * Fluid handling vessels in chemical processes are facilities used to store, separate, transport, and mix the fluid required in chemical processes such as evaporation, absorption, distillation, dry, and adhesion, referring to columns (distillation column, absorption column, extraction column, decompression column, etc.), reactors, mixing tanks, heat exchangers (heater, cooler, evaporator, condenser, etc.) filters, and storage vessels, and include vessels that handle dangerous substances according to the Rules of the Occupational Safety And Health Act [Attached table 1].
