Fiba 24" ASME N.B. Packaged Vessel — 60.3 cu ft, 2800 PSIG

Is this ASME or DOT rated, and what does that allow me to do with it?

This is an ASME Code vessel with National Board registration, designed for stationary installation at a fixed facility. ASME vessels cannot be transported filled over public roads; they are intended for permanent or semi-permanent placement at industrial plants, gas filling stations, or other fixed sites where high-pressure gas storage is needed.

What is the MAWP and capacity at service pressure?

The listing states a pressure rating of 2800 PSIG and a capacity of 60.3 cubic feet, but does not specify whether this capacity is measured at the maximum allowable working pressure or at a lower service pressure. You should confirm with the seller whether the 60.3 cu ft is the water capacity or the gas capacity at a specific pressure, as this affects how much usable gas the vessel will hold in your application.

What is the requalification or inspection status?

The vessel is listed as new condition, but the listing does not state whether it has a current hydrostatic test date, initial certification paperwork, or National Board Form U-1A data report. Before installation, you'll need to verify that all ASME documentation and National Board registration are complete and that your jurisdiction's requirements for new vessel acceptance are met.

What should I inspect before putting it into service?

Even though the unit is listed as new, verify the presence and legibility of the ASME stamp and National Board number, inspect all fittings and valves for shipping damage or contamination, and confirm the vessel is suitable for your intended gas service. Check that any factory-installed components match your process requirements, as Grade J vessels are typically configured for specific applications and may require modification for different gases or pressures.
