High Pressure Vessels LEHPV

Cylindrical Pressure Vessels

• Cylindrical pressure vessels are the most commonly used vessels for storage of high pressure gasses and fluids.
• The “shell” of a pressure vessel refers to its wall, which is typically cylindrical. The shell is composed of metal plates with a thickness carefully calculated to sufficiently contain the pressure of the vessel’s contents.
• Vertical or horizontal types.
• The product meets the requirements of various standards such as ASME, PED, GB150.

Nonferrous Metal Cladding

These metal plates are typically made to withstand pressure, as well as the specific types of corrosion commonly caused by the materials it is intended to contain. Materials used for pressure vessel shells include but not limited to: Stainless steel, Duplex steel, Titanium alloy, Hastelloy, Inconel, Monel Alloy, etc.

Pressure Vessel Heads

Flat / Torispherical heads / Elliptical heads / Conical heads.

Heat Transfer

• Half pipe coil jacket：Half-pipe coil jackets consist of metal shaped into concentric circles or coils and welded to the exterior of the container. They are useful for rapid heating or cooling of the contents of the container and are stronger than mechanical dimpled jackets.
• Conventional jacket：The conventional jacket is a cover over all or part of the vessel with an annular space between the outer vessel wall and the inner jacket wall, generally concentric. This is the most popular jacket.

Uses of Pressure Vessels

Pressure vessels are useful for a wide range of applications, including:

• Jacketed Reactors
• Storage Tanks
•  Chemical Reactors
• Mixing Vessels
• Distillation Towers
• Autoclaves
• Heat Exchangers
• Vacuum Tanks

Common locations where pressure vessels may be found include Pharmaceutical, Cosmetic, Chemical, food processing and dairy processing facilities.

Pressure vessels are composed of a shell, head, and supports, with additional attachments as needed for the vessel’s particular application. Each component of a pressure vessel will have a different design and composition based on its intended use.
