Chapter 1 General Product Description
ROPV pressure vessel is designed to withstand 6 times the designed pressure before a
catastrophic failure occurs. As a safety precaution the housings are designed for a full
body leak at 4 times the design pressure to keep catastrophic failure from happening.
Each standard vessel is carefully inspected and a hydro-test is performed to ensure its
reliability before delivering from the plant.
ROPV Pressure Vessels are designed to provide safe operation over a long service life if
properly installed, operated, and maintained. The vessel may cause loss of life, severe
bodily harm, or property damage if improperly installed, operated, or maintained. Read
and understand all guidelines provided in the vessel User Manual. Observe every
precaution contained therein. Failure to do so may result in malfunction and potential
catastrophic failure. It is recommended that only qualified technicians experienced in
servicing hydraulic systems work with this vessel. Misuse, incorrect assembly, or use of
damaged/corroded components may result in catastrophic failure. ROPV Pressure
Vessels are design and manufacture in accordance with the American Society of
Mechanical Engineers, ASME, Section X Boiler and Pressure vessels Code requirements,
for use as a membrane element housing.
