Announcement from the State Administration for Market Regulation: The design license of the pressure vessel manufacturing unit is included in the manufacturing license (how to define design capabilities)

Thread Content

recently,* * The State Administration for Market Regulation issued the "Announcement on Matters Concerning the Administrative Licensing of Special Equipment" [2019 No. 3], in order to further implement the " * * "Opinions of the Central Committee and the State Council on Promoting Reform and Development in the Field of Safety Production" and the requirements of the State Council to implement the "separation of licenses and licenses" reform nationwide, promote the implementation of the "Top-level Design Plan for Special Equipment Safety Supervision Reform", effectively reduce the institutional transaction costs of enterprises, and strengthen the supervision of special equipment. After extensive solicitation of opinions, the State Administration for Market Regulation has reviewed the current special equipment safety supervision reform. The equipment production licensing projects, special equipment operators and inspection and testing personnel qualification projects have been streamlined and integrated, and the "Special Equipment Production Unit Licensing Catalog" (Annex 1), "Special Equipment Operator Qualification Categories and Projects" (Annex 2), and "Special Equipment Inspection and Testing Personnel Qualification Projects" (Annex 3) have been formulated. The above catalog and projects will be implemented from June 1, 2019. According to the provisions of the "Special Equipment Manufacturing Unit License Catalog" in the announcement, the design license of the pressure vessel manufacturing unit is included in the manufacturing license (except for the analysis and design of pressure vessels), and is noted on the manufacturing license. A pressure vessel manufacturing unit does not need to obtain a separate design license when designing the pressure vessels manufactured by the unit. ; Pressure vessel manufacturing units without design capabilities shall subcontract the design to design units holding corresponding design licenses. Attachment 1 License Catalog for Special Equipment Production Units Attachment 2 Qualification Categories and Projects for Special Equipment Operators Attachment 3 Qualification Project for Special Equipment Inspection and Testing Personnel (Contributed by Liu Huicheng) Implication: For manufacturing units, the manufacturing license and design license are "combined into one", and they only need to have design capabilities. The definition of design capabilities still follows the provisions of the original design licensing rules (including the total number of designers, the number of certified personnel, etc.). In recent years, it has been emphasized that design approval personnel may no longer need to hold licenses and only need to have the corresponding design approval capabilities! Previously, the assessment of design approval ability was actually conducted when obtaining the "Company Design Qualification". Now that the design license is also included in the manufacturing license, there is no assessment anymore?

It was said before that it was to learn from ASME to manage the company's qualifications and not target individuals alone, but it seemed to have dropped the matter later.

The audit certificates have all been cancelled. You no longer need to hold the certificate, just make an appointment.

It's not that simple. Appointment is possible, but on-site assessment is required. What should I do if I fail the on-site assessment?

If the design license is included in the manufacturing license, how can there be "on-site assessment"? ? ? :o

First of all, the manufacturing unit must indicate whether it wants to apply for design qualification when applying. If it applies, experts from the review team must evaluate whether it has design capabilities on site. If the manufacturing unit does not apply for a design, the pressure vessel design will not be included in the issuance of the certificate.

Pressure vessel manufacturing units can design and install pressure vessels of the same manufacturing level and industrial pipelines connected to pressure vessels of this level (except for flammable, explosive and toxic media, and are not restricted by length or diameter); There is this description in the installation license column of the license directory. The implication is that the manufacturing unit can design its own container, and by the way, the things connected to the container, such as steam pipes, can be designed and installed.

The manufacturing license needs to be certified and renewed, so that when the review team comes to the company, it will directly assess whether it meets the design qualification requirements.

I still don’t understand. If a manufacturing unit designs and manufactures by itself, it does not need qualifications. Then what if a unit with manufacturing qualifications completes the design and manufactures it by other units? What about design institutes and other units that only do design?

personal understanding: 1. There is no separate design certificate. In the existing combined manufacturing certificate, the manufacturing certificate indicates whether the design is included. 2. If you obtain a new manufacturing certificate, you must indicate in advance whether you need a design certificate. If so, obtain the certificate together instead of obtaining a separate manufacturing certificate. 3. If the manufacturing certificate includes a design certificate, you can design and manufacture it yourself. External design is also possible. 4. If the manufacturing certificate does not include a design certificate, the design needs to be outsourced.

Pressure vessel manufacturing units can design and install pressure vessels of the same manufacturing level and industrial pipelines connected to pressure vessels of this level (except for flammable, explosive and toxic media, and are not restricted by length or diameter); ” There is an article about installation license in the directory. Does this mean that manufacturing units can design their own containers? By the way, pipes that can be connected to the container (such as steam pipes) are also designed and installed. Also, the manufacturing licenses of many companies are A1 and A2, and the design certificates are D1 and D2. How to combine them? It will be extremely complicated. Is it necessary to subcontract the design of A1 and A2 projects? We must know that many enterprises do not have high-level manufacturing certificates, so do they have to subcontract high-level projects? Personally, I feel that the manufacturing unit can design it by itself with the manufacturing certificate.
