Question 1

EASY

120:00

An inspector is asked whether API 510 applies to a vertical air receiver located inside a process unit boundary. The vessel is an unfired pressure vessel used for compressed air service and is part of the owner/user’s mechanical integrity program. Which statement best reflects API 510 applicability?

API 510 establishes requirements for in-service inspection, repair, alteration, and rerating of pressure vessels within its scope; compressed air receivers are not categorically excluded. Applicability is based on being an in-service pressure vessel as defined by API 510, not limited to lethal service or Section I construction.

Select one answer

API 510 applies because it covers in-service inspection, repair, alteration, and rerating of pressure vessels within its scope.

API 510 does not apply because compressed air service is excluded from API 510.

API 510 applies only if the vessel was originally constructed to ASME Section I.

API 510 applies only to vessels that contain lethal substances.
