Appendix 15 Revised Regulation for Boiler and Pressure Vessel Manufacture

Licensing
w w
Since the“ Supervision Administration Regulation for Manufacture of Boiler and
Pressure Vessel” and “Requirement for Boiler and Pressure Vessels Manufacture
Licensing” came into effect on Jan.1st, 2004, AQSIQ has made revisions and

78
 EI
interpretations to same of the provisions, which are summarized as following.

1. NDE person requirement (Article 11 and 19 of “Requirement for Boiler and Pressure

S
Vessels Manufacture Licensing”)
“RT Ⅲ and UT Ⅲ” person required by the manufacturer of boiler A level , pressure
vessels A1 and C level was adjusted from “Level Ⅲ” to “ holding the certificate of RT
and UTⅡ(or above level) not less than four years”

C
2. Requirement of heat treatment and rolling machine (Article 22 of “Requirement for
Boiler and Pressure Vessels Manufacture Licensing”)
2.1 Heat treatment equipment required by high-pressure vessels manufacturer of A1 level
in “Requirement for Boiler and Pressure Vessels Manufacture Licensing” has been
changed to below:
For the high-pressure vessels manufacturer of A1 level, heat treatment performed by
outsourcing through corresponding qualified sub-contractor is acceptable.
2.2 Rolling machine required in “Requirement for Boiler and Pressure Vessels
Manufacture Licensing” has been changed to follow:
Manufacturer of pressure vessels shall have the bending ability suitable for its main
products. Sub-contacting of steel plate bending is permitted if the machine can’t roll
some individual products. However, the final weld for longitudinal seam shall be
completed by the manufacturer of pressure vessel.
On the situation of above mentioned, the corresponding quality control procedure or
document for sub-contracting shall be submitted together with the application
documentation while manufacturer begin to apply for the manufacture license.

3. Lifting ability
Lifting activity may be sub-contracted if the crane can’t meet the requirement for
lifting.

4. Item 5 of Article 55 in “Requirement for Boiler and Pressure Vessels Manufacture

Licensing”

e
“For the steel plate used for the tank of transportable pressure vessels, the sampling

s
quantity of the impact test is two steel plate per batch and the test temperature should be

c
-20℃ or per instruction on the drawing. The requirements for impact test and acceptable

.
impact toughness value should conform to Table 3.

5. Shell of the pressure vessels

w w
w
The shell is the main pressure part of pressure vessel, the manufacturer shall have the
capability of producing the shell of pressure vessel and normally the sub-contracting is
not permitted. However, for the forged or foundry pressure vessels without longitudinal
seam, shell fabricating performed by the subcontractor who has the adequate production
conditions is also acceptable. Under the outsourcing, the subcontractor’s production
conditions, quality assurance measures, etc. shall be evaluated in accordance with the
pressure vessel manufacturer’ own quality guaranty systems. The subcontractor shall be

79
 EI
responsible for the shell quality of the pressure vessel, such as geometric dimension,
chemical composition, mechanical properties, the results of impact test (if require) and
NDE, etc.

S
Accumulator assemblers who do not have accumulator shell production ability
cannot be granted the pressure vessel Manufacture License, however, they are allowed to
purchase and assemble accumulator shell produced by manufacturers who have obtained
the corresponding Manufacture License, and on the body of the accumulator the

C
accumulator shell manufacturer and its license number shall be clearly indicated.

6. Qualification and classification for small size pressure vessel

The term” small size pressure vessel” refer to the pressure vessel which diameter less
than 150 mm or the content less than 25 liters. The pressure vessels aforementioned is
subjected to “Regulations of Safety Supervision of Special Equipment”, but are not
applicable to the“ Supervision Regulation on Safety Technology for Pressure Vessel”, so
these vessels may be designed and fabricate by any manufacturer holding the license of
A1, A2, A3, D1, or D2 level. Simultaneity, small size pressure vessels are not classified
in accordance to “Supervision Regulation on Safety Technology for Pressure Vessel”.

7. Gas cylinder container

Manufacturer of gas cylinder container with whole assembling volume no less than
one cubic meter shall obtain manufacture license of C3 level (assembling for gas cylinder
container only).
The basic requirement for pressure vessel C3 (assembling for gas cylinder container
only) shall be as follow:
(1) In order to guaranty the efficient performance of quality systems, the quality
management systems shall be established; the quality control documents and regulation
shall be completed too.
(2) The workshop is required to meet the production of assembling the gas cylinder
container.
(3) The gas cylinder container shall pass the corresponding inspection by China

e
Classification Society (Briefed as the CCS).

s
(4) The facility for pressure test and gas tightness test is required to assemble the gas

c
cylinder container.

.
(5) The professional technician and operator is needed and not less than 3 person
Manufacture license of C3 (assembling for gas cylinder container only) is not

w
required for the license holder of B1 (Seamless gas cylinder). However, above-mentioned
w
w
containers of gas cylinder shall pass the corresponding inspection by CCS, and the
inspection report shall be submitted to the license-issue organ for registration.

8. Addition the boiler and pressure vessel production site.

8.1 The manufacturer of boiler and pressure vessel, who desire to add another production
site beyond the approved address under the same company name due to the increase of
production ability, shall deliver the application to the license-issue organ. Upon the

80
 EI
application accepted and approved, the applicant is required to invite the audit organ to
conduct the manufacturer survey to the additional production site. After the assessment
passed, the name, address, manufacturing level, products variety approved at the

S
additional production site will be merged into the license scope of general factory (head
office), and no independent license issued only to the additional production site.
8.2 The subsidiary company who has business license or possesses the legal person status
can apply for boiler and pressure vessel Manufacture License independently according to

C
its qualifications, the Supervision Administration Regulation for Manufacture of Boiler
and Pressure Vessel, the Requirements for Boiler and Pressure Vessel Manufacture
Licensing, and the Procedures for Manufacture Licensing of Boiler and Pressure Vessel.
If the subsidiary company does not apply for Manufacture License by itself, its mother
company can apply as indicated by 8.1.

9. Change of manufacture address

With the reference to the Article 20 of “Supervision Administration Regulation for
Manufacture of Boiler and Pressure Vessel”, refer to the change of production site, the
form of “Application form for the change of special equipment manufacture license”
shall be filled out and delivered to the license-issue organ. After the application accepted
and approved, the manufacturer shall invite the audit organ to perform the manufacturer
survey for this change confirmation and the revised license will be issued after the
assessment passed finally. Production activities of boiler and pressure vessels shall be
suspended while site moving. Any production at the same time of removal is not
permitted in principle.

10. Scope extension of license

The license holder of pressure vessel including D level, or pressure vessel
manufacture holding level B, A3, A4 or A5, shall deliver the application to the AQSIQ
for the adding of D level. Upon the application accepted and approved, audit organ who
has the assessment qualification applicable for manufacture licensing of D level shall be
invited to perform the manufacturer survey and the corresponding audit report shall be
submitted to AQSIQ for approval.

11. Expiry date of boiler and pressure vessel manufacture license

s e
c
The manufacture license of boiler and pressure vessel is valid for a period of 4 years

.
since the date of issue. If license upgraded from level D to level A, B, or C, the license
expiration shall be re-calculated from the date of upgrading approved. Within the

w w
license’s approved scope, if add the level or products variety, the license’s expiration date
remain unchanged.

12. Regulation of sample products for trial-manufacture

The sample/demo products for trial-manufacture describing in Article 10 of
w
“Supervision Administration Regulation for Manufacture of Boiler and Pressure
Vessel ”refer to the typical products or major components corresponding to the applied
level.
