NOTE:
(1) The source standards for specifications listed in this table are ASTM standards. ASTM technical committees review the standards under
their jurisdiction on a 5-yr cycle. If no changes are needed, then the standard is simply reapproved. At times, editorial errors are discovered
within an ASTM standard between the 5-yr review cycle. If the technical committee decides to fix the errors immediately, then the standard
will be republished with a superscript epsilon (ε) in the designation. BPVC II Committee has taken the position that a reapproved or
editorially corrected edition is technically and substantively identical to the base edition. For example, edition 15(2020), 15 ε1, or 15(2020)ε1
is technically and substantively identical to 15. Therefore, for the purposes of ASME construction, a reapproved or editorially corrected
edition of an ASTM specification shall be considered acceptable for use, even if the edition is beyond the range listed in this column,
provided that its base edition is within range.

3 Example of how this table shall be used when Alfa Laval, for the
material, requires ASME 2023
ASME 2023: SA-193/SA-193M is identical to ASTM A193/A193M - 20. Editions from 14 to 20 are accepted.

ASTM specifications referenced in earlier ASME editions:

ASME 2021: SA-193/SA-193M is identical to ASTM A193/A193M - 12b. Editions from 05 to 12b are accepted.

ASME 2019: SA-193/SA-193M is identical to ASTM A193/A193M - 12b. Editions from 05 to 12b are accepted.

ASME 2017: SA-193/SA-193M is identical to ASTM A193/A193M - 12b. Editions from 05 to 12b are accepted.

ASME 2015: SA-193/SA-193M is identical to ASTM A193/A193M - 12b. Editions from 05 to 12b are accepted.

ASME 2013: SA-193/SA-193M is identical to ASTM A193/A193M - 07.

This specification is acceptable to Alfa Laval because edition 07 is also accepted by ASME 2019.
