Is the manufacturer of the boiler also the designer?

The manufacturer of the boiler is not necessarily the design unit. Generally, the design and manufacturing of boilers require specialized knowledge and skills; therefore, they are often designed by specialized design firms before being handed over to manufacturing units for production. However, regardless of who the design entity is, the boiler manufacturer is responsible for the quality of its design documents. This is because the manufacturing unit is the entity that transforms design documents into actual products, and it is their responsibility to ensure the accuracy, rationality, and feasibility of those design documents. If there are issues with the design documents, it may affect the performance and safety of the boiler, and could even lead to accidents. Therefore, regulations require manufacturing units to be responsible for the quality of design documents in order to ensure the safety and quality of the products. .

The design unit of a boiler is also the manufacturing unit, which must be the case, because the boiler design documents (including drawings) need to go through a verification process, and during manufacturing only the boilers designed by that same unit can be produced.

Unlike containers, boilers must be designed and manufactured as a single unit
