Do products classified as special components for pressure pipelines in skid-mounted equipment require registration as special equipment?
According to the Special Equipment Safety Law, special components of pressure pipelines are considered a type of special equipment. Therefore, if the product categories within the skid-mounted equipment include special components for pressure pipelines, registration of such special equipment is required. The registration of special equipment is an important aspect of managing such equipment, aimed at ensuring its safe and reliable operation. It is recommended that you contact the relevant special equipment regulatory authorities to learn about the specific registration procedures and requirements. .
Quality Inspection Special Letter [2016] No. 46 – Opinions of the Special Equipment Bureau of the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine on the Implementation of the Safety Technical Inspection Regulations for Fixed Pressure Vessels (TSG 21-2016). 2. Registration for the use of skid-mounted pressure equipment systems or mechanical equipment systems (hereinafter referred to as “equipment systems”). (1) Pressure vessels and pressure pipelines installed in the \"equipment system\" shall be designed and manufactured by units with the appropriate qualifications, and shall undergo manufacturing supervision inspections in accordance with the requirements of relevant safety technical specifications. (2) For an “equipment system” that includes pressure vessels or pressure pipelines, the manufacturing unit must hold a pressure vessel manufacturing license, a pressure pipeline component manufacturing license, or a pressure pipeline installation license corresponding to the relevant category. The system shall undergo manufacturing supervision inspections (for those pressure pipeline components for which no manufacturing supervision inspection is specified in the safety technical specifications, the requirements for installation supervision inspections may be applied as a reference). (3) The pressure pipelines in the “equipment system” can be treated as auxiliary devices of pressure vessels and registered for use in accordance with the regulations applicable to pressure vessels ; For those that are only pressure pipelines, registration for use shall be carried out in accordance with the regulations for pressure pipelines. (4) The “equipment system” shall be subject to direct application by the user unit for registration of use (except for simple pressure vessels and pressure vessels falling within the scope of 1.4 of these regulations); there is no need to submit notifications for the installation of pressure vessels or pressure pipelines, nor to carry out inspection during installation
