Universal AET has a long history of providing ASME Code pressure vessels for oil and gas, air process and power generation applications. ASME certified our Muscoda plant in 1983 to fabricate metallic pressure vessels. Since  then, we’ve built more than 3,500 “U”- or “UM”-stamped vessels.  Our capabilities also extend to vessels that must conform to Europe’s PED, China’s GB-150 or Russia’s GOST standards.  The following factors apply to ASME Code:

  • operating pressure may range from 15 to 3,000 PSIG
  • recommended for applications with vacuum exceeding 20 inches mercury
  • capable of handling hazardous or flammable gases
  • commonly used on blowers, compressors and vacuum pumps
  • suitable for use with pressure reduction valves and inline filters
