Safety valves are primarily responsible for keeping industrial operations safe, as they are the last line of defense in the system. Therefore, it is essential that their design, installation, and maintenance are in perfect condition to ensure safe operation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
To guarantee safe operation, there are several standards and certifications that govern the functioning of safety valves. In this article, we will present these guidelines, how they are applied, and how they ensure a safe system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Among the regulations for safety valves, the ASME code is one of the most important. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Developed by ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers), this code defines all the technical standards for the manufacture of boilers, pressure vessels, and auxiliary equipment, recognized for its technical methodology and worldwide application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Regarding Safety valves<\/strong><\/a>, the two ASME code sections that deal with the topic are sections I and VIII.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In addition to the ASME code, there are companies certified for the manufacture, assembly, and maintenance of safety valves, <\/strong>and they are awarded the so-called ASME stamp. <\/p>\n\n\n\n To obtain the ASME stamp, companies must have the following certifications from the National Board of Boiler and Pressure Vessel Inspectors<\/strong> . <\/p>\n\n\n\n This is the Brazilian standard for boilers and pressure vessels defining audit standards to be followed for such equipment to operate with the indicated pressure and working capacity.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n This standard evaluates technical definitions, inspection periods, calibration, and various technical aspects, as well as the figure of the qualified professional (PH), who will be responsible for supervising the equipment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n As a mandatory standard in Brazil, non-compliance by the company can lead to various legal consequences.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n In addition to national and international standards and certifications, there is also certification from globally recognized companies for their industrial services, such as Baker Hughes, for which Axpr is a sales channel partner <\/strong><\/a>in Brazil. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The main certifications granted by BH are: <\/p>\n\n\n\n Additionally, all services performed, from obtaining the product to its maintenance, are supervised by Baker Hughes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n AXPR, in addition to following all NR-13 requirements, is a company that holds the Mark certification for the <\/strong>Masoneilan<\/strong><\/a> line and the GTC seal granted by Baker Hughes<\/strong>. This ensures a team of highly qualified professionals to perform services with industrial valves<\/strong>, following all required technical standards. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Being certified by Baker Hughes, the company has the EVT 3.0 online test for evaluating valves in industrial lines<\/strong>, nsuring enormous precision and reliability, as well as avoiding operational downtime and all the disadvantages of physical tests. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Want to know more about our services and how we can help you have a safer operation? clicking here!<\/strong><\/a> <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" As v\u00e1lvulas de seguran\u00e7a s\u00e3o as principais respons\u00e1veis por manter em seguran\u00e7a as opera\u00e7\u00f5es industriais, pois como s\u00e3o o \u00faltimo equipamento de seguran\u00e7a do sistema, \u00e9 essencial que seu projeto,…<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":5656,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[35,36],"tags":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/axpr.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/artigo-21.06.21-1110x6301-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/axpr.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5654"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/axpr.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/axpr.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/axpr.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/axpr.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5654"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/axpr.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5654\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5655,"href":"https:\/\/axpr.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5654\/revisions\/5655"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/axpr.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5656"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/axpr.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5654"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/axpr.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5654"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/axpr.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5654"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}\n
