If the installation of a pressure vessel is not reported, and registration is carried out right after installation, will a fine be imposed?

In accordance with Article 78 of the Regulations on the Safety Supervision of Special Equipment, construction units that are responsible for the installation, modification, or maintenance of boilers, pressure vessels, elevators, lifting machinery, passenger cableways, and large-scale amusement facilities, as well as units that handle the modification and maintenance of specialized motor vehicles used within factories or plants, shall be ordered by the authorities in charge of special equipment safety supervision to make corrections within a specified time limit if they commence work without first informing in writing the relevant departments of special equipment safety supervision in the municipalities directly under the Central Government or cities with districts about the planned installation, modification, or maintenance work. They shall also be required to hand over the relevant technical documents to the users of boilers, pressure vessels, elevators, lifting machinery, passenger cableways, and large-scale amusement facilities within 30 days after the work is completed； If the violation is not corrected by the deadline, a fine of not less than 2,000 yuan but not more than 10,000 yuan shall be imposed.

It depends on whether the Special Equipment Department of the local Market Supervision Administration conducts inspections and takes action or not. According to the rules, a penalty is required, but if they don’t know about it, then no penalty will be imposed. If you’re really afraid of a fine, just get one issued again. Write the date on the notice a bit earlier. Now it is the approval authority that is responsible for issuing the certificates, and they do not check whether a notice has been provided when issuing them. It can be considered a vulnerability as well.

It says it won’t be processed; can’t register, right?

According to the established procedure, no notification was given that registration could not be processed. But those at the approval office don’t understand either, and it doesn’t cause any delays; that’s how things are on our end. After all, it’s not a specialty managed by quality inspection systems.

We keep 4 copies of the notice for our own records, one copy is required by the Special Equipment Department at the county level, one copy is needed by the city authorities, and one copy is required by the city’s approval agency

Who should be the one to inform them? The construction company, or should we as the project owners do it? Should we inform the municipal special inspection agency or the county-level special inspection department? Let me know what documents are required Is it just a list of equipment? Many devices are being installed one after another; it’s not possible to inform everyone every time a new device is installed

The construction unit shall provide notification. You can go to the county-level special equipment department. Inform them about the qualifications required for general production units and the complete factory documentation for the equipment, as well as the qualifications of the using units; that’s basically it.
