The ASME U stamp designates an unfired pressure vessel of more than 35 gallons (4.68 cu. ft.) has been built to ASME Code specifications, under ASME Code section 8. A U-1 form must be filed and signed by the authorized inspector for each and every pressure vessel built. The ASME U2 stamp is for unfired pressure vessels not built to ASME section 8 div. 1 standards, but under the alternative rules, has been inspected and found to comply with acceptable construction methods. A U-1 form signed by an authorized inspector must be filed for each such vessel, along with a description of the methods of construction used. The ASME U3 stamp is for high pressure (over 600 psi?) unfired pressure vessels. The ASME UM stamp is for pressure vessels less than 35 gallons capacity.
What is difference between ASME B16 & ASME B16.5 Flange
i want all ASME codes and standards.
The design should conform to ASME Sec VIII Div.1.
have seen one fired heater with asme u stamp. ASme recogbnises DF, direct firing however it excludes tube heaters per the follwoing form ASME VIII-1.U-1(c)(2) Based on the Committee's consideration, the following classes of vessels are not included in the scope of this Division; however, any pressure vessel which meets all the applicable requirements of this Division may be stamped with the Certification Mark with the U Designator:(a) those within the scope of other Sections;(b) fired process tubular heaters;(c) pressure containers which are integral parts
An ASME "U" stamp designates a vessel as a "pressure vessel" as defined and regulated by ASME codes
When a newly manufactured pressure vessel is to be certified from ASME AI (Authorized Inspector), the AI stamps a form called "ASME U1A Form" with signature certifying that the vessel fabrication has been done according to the rules laid down by ASME Section VIII.

The ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code details all the various calculations necessary to determine the MAWP of any pressure vessel.
ASME was created in 1880.

An ASME U Vessel Stamp signifies that the vessel was made to the standards stated in Section VIII Division 1 by the American Society of Engineers. A U2 Vessel Stamp means it meets the standards for Section VIII Division 2 Alternative Rules.
