Issues with the delayed calibration of safety accessories on pressure vessels?

Safety valves can have their inspection dates extended; what should be done with pressure gauges?
When installing a pressure gauge, it is essential to install a shut-off valve in front of it. If that is not possible, we will conduct inspections during the downtime for maintenance of the equipment; adding a valve after that period is not allowed, especially for gauges installed on pressure vessels – a valve must always be used in such cases.
We also have valves; even if they aren’t turned on or off very often throughout the year, there is still a high possibility of internal leakage.
