Frequently Asked Questions

1. According to which standards do you design pressure vessels and their accessories?

Pressure vessels are mainly designed according to the following standards:

  • ASME BPVC Sec VIII-Div 1

  • EN 13445

  • PED 2014/68/EU

We often work with a combination of PED and ASME code requirements. Naturally, we always take into account related welding standards (e.g., EN ISO 9606, EN ISO 15614, ASME Sec. IX), material standards (EN, ASTM), non-destructive testing standards (EN 13445-5, EN ISO 9712, ASME Sec. V), and other specialized standards depending on the specific requirements or industry.

2. What materials do you use to design pressure vessels and their accessories?

We specialize mainly in pressure vessels and equipment made from:

  • Austenitic stainless steels (the most common materials for pharmaceutical, food, and chemical applications),

  • Nickel alloys (for demanding environments, aggressive media, or increased corrosion resistance),

  • Also carbon structural steels,

  • And duplex stainless steels (for a combination of increased strength and corrosion resistance).

The choice of material is always adapted to the project requirements, medium, pressure, and applicable standards. All materials used meet the requirements for safety and certification for pressure equipment in the EU and according to ASME.

3. What information is needed for a non-binding quotation?

For a non-binding quotation, basic information is sufficient: a description of the equipment, approximate dimensions, operating conditions (pressure, temperature, medium), and the expected delivery date. If you have a drawing or reference documentation, it will significantly speed up the processing.

4. Can you also arrange certification, or do you only supply documentation?

We provide complete documentation for certification according to applicable standards (e.g., ASME, PED). We can also assist with organizing inspections and the certification process itself through an external inspector or cooperating certification authority.

5. How quickly can the documentation usually be delivered?

Simple technical documentation can usually be delivered within 5–10 working days, depending on complexity. For larger projects requiring certification or complex calculations, the deadline is set individually and always by agreement.

6. Do you prepare documentation in English?

Yes, we routinely prepare technical documentation in both Czech and English according to the client's preference.

7. Do you provide manufacturing, or only design and documentation?

We primarily provide design and technical documentation. We can recommend or arrange manufacturing through our partner manufacturers who meet certification and quality requirements.
