MAD3 (formerly Deacon Engineers) provided the design, independent verification and drawings in accordance with AS1210-2010 Pressure vessels
Scope Of Work
Design for the vessels to conform with AS1210-2010 Pressure vessels
- Service: Air / Water filter
- Design Press. / Temp.: 600 kPa / 2 to 90°C
- Nominal dims.: 2660 x 3200 mm
- Material: Coated Carbon Steel
- Verification in accordance with AS 3920 Pressure equipment – Conformity assessment.
Project Challenges
- Vessel required efficient charging with filter media
- Filter plate would prevent effective in-service inspection if a single inspection opening was provided
- Requirement to access the vessel from the top dished end
- Filter nozzles prone to degradation
- Internal coating required non-standard internal details.
How We Managed This
- Inspection and charging nozzles arranged to optimise site arrangements with dual entry points
- Removable davit designed to facilitate safe hoisting of personnel when entry was required from top of vessel
- Internals designed to be compatible with non-standard internal coating.
Value Engineering
- Access arrangements custom designed to meet site requirements
- Designed to allow application of long term durable internal coating
- Safe access using non-standard entry means
- Openings optimised for charging and monitoring charge of media.
