Special Equipment Administrative License
We are a steel pipe manufacturer that produces pressure pipes and pressure steel pipes. Frequently, customers ask: Do you have special equipment licenses? Is there a pressure vessel production license? Let's talk about what this license is today.
 
 
Announcement of the General Administration of Market Supervision on Matters Relevant to Administrative Licenses for Special Equipment (No. 3, 2019, hereinafter referred to as “No. 3 Announcement”), “Special Equipment Manufacture and Filling Unit Licensing Rules” (TSG07-2019, hereinafter The new licensing rules ") have been implemented since June 1, 2019. In order to further implement the No. 3 Announcement and the new licensing rules, and standardize the administrative licensing work, in response to the more concentrated issues during the implementation process, the Office of Special Equipment Administrative Licensing of the General Administration of Market Supervision answers the following questions:
 
 
one.Pressure vessel
(1) Test design documents for pressure vessels.
1. The design of fixed pressure vessel rules is not divided into levels, and the certification (renewal and addition) units should prepare trial design documents for large high pressure vessels, medium and low pressure vessels, and spherical storage tanks, while meeting the new permitting rules "Table C-1" It is not required to prepare trial design documents for ultra-high pressure vessels (even if trial design documents for ultra-high pressure vessels are provided, the license does not separately state that they contain ultra-high pressure vessels). If the trial design documents include non-metallic pressure vessels, the permit shall state "containing non-metallic pressure vessels".
2. The design of mobile pressure vessel rules is not divided into levels, and the certification (renewal, addition) unit shall prepare trial design documents for a total of 5 varieties of railway tank cars, automobile tank cars, tank containers, long tube trailers, and tube bundle containers.
3. Attachment A to the new permitting rules, “Instructions for Filling in Special Equipment Production Licenses,” Article 4 refers only to the design of pressure vessel rules, not including pressure vessel analysis design (SAD). A manufacturing unit that has the ability to design rules and only designs its own pressure vessel products, if it can meet the permit conditions for the pressure vessel analysis and design (SAD) subproject, it can engage in the analysis and design (SAD) of products manufactured by this unit. Note on the license Bright. The analysis and design approval personnel of the unit must pass the on-site ability assessment of the appraisal agency, and should prepare at least one set of analysis and design documents.
4. Before the pressure vessel manufacturing unit obtains the manufacturing license qualification, its trial design documents shall not be used for trial production of the tested product.
 
(2) Trial-produced products for pressure vessels.
1. The original A2 pressure vessel manufacturing unit can apply for a renewal of the D-level production license according to the provisions of the license renewal. The resource conditions, manufacturing performance or trial production of the original D1, D2 pressure vessel manufacturing unit should meet the requirements of the new licensing rules. , Can only be issued a D-level production license, otherwise the license remarks "limited to the first and second category of low-pressure vessels".
2. Units that only manufacture single-layer pressure vessels, the license does not indicate "high-pressure vessels limited to single-layer". Units applying for or adding new items to manufacture typical products listed in the new license rule "C2.1.7 (3)" should prepare corresponding trial products. The license remarks "include (or limit)", which has the production capacity of multi-layer pressure vessels The unit should manufacture the corresponding trial products and have at least the resource conditions of hot-sleeve (bandaging or wrapping) pressure vessels.
 
(3) Resource conditions of pressure vessel production units.
1. The pressure vessel design approval personnel should use the national unified test bank to pass the online examination. The design experience and performance of the designer are confirmed by the appraisal agency based on the relevant materials provided by the design unit.
2. The pressure vessel manufacturing unit should meet the basic conditions and corresponding special conditions at the same time. When work is allowed to be outsourced, the manufacturing unit should still have the production equipment required by the special conditions; equipment that is not really needed in the product manufacturing process can be made without requirements. The unit should make an explanation when applying, and the appraisal agency will make it clear in the appraisal report (for example, a large high-pressure container production unit that only produces multi-layer bandaging containers does not need a 150mm plate rolling machine, and the rolling capacity can meet the product requirements).
3. For the addition of mobile pressure vessel and gas cylinder filling licenses, the applicant shall provide relevant documents in accordance with the requirements of the renewal unit in the "Note C-11" and "Note D-7" of the new license rules. The “Planning Permit” in “Note C-11” and “Note D-7” may also be planning-related certification documents issued by the planning department of the local government.
4. Welded and non-welded heads can be purchased separately; Article 6.1.2.1 (3) of the “Safety Technical Supervision Regulations for Fixed Pressure Vessels” (TSG21-2016, hereinafter referred to as the solid capacity regulation) lists them separately and leaves the factory. When outsourcing other components, it can only be used to repair and modify the pressure vessel in use.
5. For spherical tank (A3) manufacturing unit, sub-contracting of spherical shell plate is allowed; if it does not have the ability of spherical shell plate pressing, the license remarks "excluding spherical shell plate pressing".
 
(4) On-site manufacturing of ultra-large medium and low pressure non-spherical containers.
1. Units that have obtained evidence before the implementation of the new permit rules, and have on-site manufacturing performance within 4 years, but units that have not yet reached the renewal period can sign the on-site manufacturing project contract in accordance with the "General Administration of Market Supervision General Office on Special Equipment Administrative Licensing Related Matters" "Implementation Opinions of the People's Republic of China" (City Supervision [2019] No. 32, hereinafter referred to as "Licensed Implementation Opinions") required the submission of change materials to the issuing authority of the original certificate, and the license remarks "including on-site manufacturing".
2. Units engaged in the on-site manufacturing of ultra-large medium and low pressure non-spherical containers do not require trial production of spherical tanks (A3). The unit should have A1, A2, or D pressure vessel manufacturing qualifications and meet the basic and special conditions for spherical tanks (A3) (excluding the requirements for qualified welders), or have spherical tank (A3) manufacturing qualifications and meet A1, A2, or The basic conditions and special conditions for D-level pressure vessel manufacturing units, or both the corresponding levels of pressure vessel and spherical tank (A3) manufacturing qualifications.
