120:00

You are assigned to inspect a pressure vessel installed in a refinery. The owner/user asks whether API 510 applies to the vessel because it was built to ASME Section VIII, Div. 1 and is currently in in-service operation. Which statement best reflects API 510 applicability?

API 510 is an in-service inspection code for pressure vessels and applies to pressure vessels in service (including those constructed to ASME Section VIII) that meet API 510 definitions and scope. It is not limited by publication date, API monogram, or a blanket 300 psi threshold. (API 510, Scope/Applicability and Definitions).

Select one answer

API 510 applies to pressure vessels that have been placed in service, regardless of whether they were constructed to ASME Section VIII, provided they meet the definition of a pressure vessel in API 510.

API 510 applies only to vessels constructed after API 510 was first published and stamped with the API 510 monogram.

API 510 applies only to unfired pressure vessels operating above 300 psi and does not apply below that pressure.

API 510 applies only to vessels that will be altered or rerated; otherwise, API 570 governs all in-service vessels.
