Pressure Vessels Fabrication (1 of 2)

A pressure vessel is a closed, rigid container designed to hold gases or liquids at a pressure different from the ambient pressure. The end caps fitted to the cylindrical body are called heads.

In addition to industrial compressed air receivers and domestic hot water storage tanks, other examples of pressure vessels are: diving cylinder, recompression chamber, distillation towers, autoclaves and many other vessels in mining or oil refineries and petrochemical plants, nuclear reactor vessel, habitat of a space ship, habitat of a submarine, pneumatic reservoir, hydraulic reservoir under pressure, rail vehicle airbrake reservoir, road vehicle airbrake reservoir and storage vessels for liquified gases such as ammonia, chlorine, propane, butane and LPG.

In the industrial sector, pressure vessels are designed to operate safely at a specific pressure and temperature, technically referred to as the "Design Pressure" and "Design Temperature". A vessel that is inadequately designed to handle a high pressure constitutes a very significant safety hazard. Because of that, the design and certification of pressure vessels is governed by design codes such as the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code in North America, the Pressure Equipment Directive of the EU (PED), Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS), CSA B51 in Canada, AS1210 in Australia and other international standards like Lloyd's, Germanischer Lloyd, Det Norske Veritas, Stoomwezen etc.

I knew it so you can keep oxigen on those things rigth? so you can create gravity in another planet let´s say MARS?, so by all means, this can also by used to produce water rigth, it says, they can keep liquids or gases, but what if you keep all the gases that the water is made of, and in a some sort of temperature that the water as we know it is produce you can recreate at least like 200mm of water, well depending on how long the pressure vessel is, am i rigth?, do u think is possible?

was that guy doing liquid penetrant inspection around 3:50?

not a good company to work for.....no helmets for safety?

the thickness of the plates is quite less.....so probably non critical tanks and vessels

What kind of pressure vessel are they building?

[fmx88torana]

looks like a high pressure water vessel of sum sort, my work built vessels so similar to those ones.. sub arc welds inspected for undercut n spatter.. this video looks old..

Informative and fun. Weird how I felt it was fun. But fun, nonetheless

Rarely do I like the all-music-no-sound thing but this song IS perfect.

Funny...I never associated "Tales of the Vienna Woods" with a fab shop. Interesting and informative, but some expert narration would improve this effort.

Can you get me a job boss?

Very Good Work
