ASME Section XIII does not define a minimum design pressure. Many vessels are designed for full vacuum according to the requirements of the code. A storage tank (API 650 or API 620) can be used in place of a pressure vessel provided that the gage pressure is not more than 15 pounds per square inch.
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.
asme VIII
safety valve in accordance with the requirements of Article VIII of the ASME code for pressure vessel applications, which is within 10% overpressure that opens and closes in 7%.
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.
Hemophilla is a genetic disorder in which there is absence of clotting factor viii, leading to defective clot formation, petechiae bruising and gum bleeding. Treatment is by injecting factor VIII concentrate
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
There are many companies in the world that process iron into the various recipes of steel. They will be more able to help you than l can
Pressure vessels fabricated to ASME Sec VIII Div 1 need to be U stamped. The vendor's facilities should qualify for fabrication of such vessels and audited at periodic intervals as specified in the code. The benefits of fabricating to U stamp are 1) higher quality standards 2) competent authority involved in all stages for approval 3) uniformity of code requirements irrespective of geography
*Any flange having different MOC bears the rating with respect to international standards like ANSI B16.5.*It is a designed pressure that a flange can withstand.*For example a flange is having the following specification:25NBX150#,FORGED CARBON STEEL as per ANSI B16.5is having 150 psi flange rating.It can withstand 150 psig pressure safely.(Noting that in most cases the pressure-temperature charts of a given spec will allow for normal operating pressure to far exceed the class rating at ambient temperature. For example a 150# flange in A105 Carbon Steel will rate for 285PSI at -20 to 100 Degree F. For more information see www.texasflange.com The original intent was to class the parts to safely hold the given pressure at relatively high temperature. Since often times the operating temperatures are much lower the flanges can usually be used well above their given rate. When in doubt take your design criteria to a company that deals in it and ask for the specifics.)*Pipe flanges that are made to standards called out by ASME/ANSI B16.5 or ASME/ANSI B16.47 are typically made from forged materials and have machined surfaces. They are typically in "Pressure Classes" such as 150#, 300#, 600#, 900# 1500#; however, ASME B16.47 still recognizes the 75# or "Class 75" flange for certain low pressure and low temperature applications. These "Pressure Classes" have both pressure and temperature ratings for specific materials. The flange faces are made to standardized dimensions and are typically "flat face" "raised face" "tongue and grove" or "ring joint" styles, although other obscure styles may be permitted. Flange designs are available as "welding neck" "slip-on" "lap joint" "socket weld" "threaded" and also "blind flange". The gasket type and bolt type are generally specified by the standard(s); however, sometimes the standards refer to the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (B&PVC) for details ( see ASME Code Section VIII Division 1 - Appendix 2 ). These flanges are recognized by ASME Pipe Codes such as ASME B31.1 Power Piping, and ASME B31.3 Process Piping. Materials for flanges are usually under ASME designation: SA-105 , SA-266 or SA-182.*Please visit following link and download the software, you will get both pressure v/s temperature rating of flange:
