All Parr reactors and pressure vessels are designed and manufactured with great care to ensure safe operation when used within their prescribed temperature and pressure limits. But, the basic responsibility for safety when using this equipment rests entirely with the user; who must: 1. Select a reactor or pressure vessel which has the capability, pressure rating, corrosion resistance and design features that are suitable for its intended use. Parr engineers will be glad to discuss available equipment and material options with prospective users, but the final responsibility for selecting a...

Design Codes and Certification Design criteria specified in the ASME Code for Unfired Pressure Vessels are closely observed in the manufacture and testing of all Parr pressure equipment. Cylinders for each reactor and pressure vessel of standard design are machined from solid, hot-rolled or forged bars of selected corrosion resistant alloys with no seams or welds in the vessel as potential sources of weakness or localized corrosion. Each individual cylinder is tested hydrostatically. For vessels bearing ASME Certification Mark with “U” Certification designator, the minimum hydrostatic test...

ASME Certification Parr Instrument Company holds a Certificate of Authorization issued by the Boiler and Pressure Vessel Committee of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) and the National Board of Boiler & Pressure Vessel Inspectors (NBBI) as an approved facility for manufacturing unfired pressure vessels. If required, any Parr reactor or pressure vessel can be certified to the ASME BPVC, Section VIII, Division 1, which involves: 1. Vessel inspection and tests by an Authorized Inspector of the National Board of Boiler and Pressure Vessel Inspectors. 2. Issuance of Form U-1 or...

Parr Instrument Company will attempt to answer questions regarding corrosion resistance and may suggest materials that might be suitable for specific applications, but no guarantee can be made that any particular alloy will be fully resistant to a prescribed set of corrosive conditions. Parr reactors are normally made of Type 316 Stainless Steel, but they can also be made of other alloys as well. Available construction materials include: - Type 316/316L Stainless Steel - Alloy A-286 - Alloy 20 - Alloy 230 - Alloy 400 - Alloy 600 - Alloy 625 - Alloy B-2/B-3 - Alloy C-276 - Nickel 200 -...

of any material to stress corrosion cracking, intergranular corrosion and pitting must also be considered when judging the suitability of a material for a particular application. The principal characteristics of the construction materials offered by Parr are summarized on the following pages. These listings are intended to serve only as a starting point for any study of comparative corrosion resistance and physical properties. Material manufacturers booklets on each alloy are available on our website at www.parrinst.com. Additional details may also be obtained from other sources. Type...
