    Study Notes

    Boiler Fittings and Registration

    • Every valve, piping component, or instrument connected to the pressure side of a boiler becomes pressurized and must meet the required service designation for the boiler to which they are installed.
    • Considerations for fitting service include:
      • Operating temperature
      • Operating pressure
      • Material compatibility
    • The CSA B51 Boiler, Pressure Vessel, and Pressure Piping Code requires registration of all pressure fittings designed for service at:
      • Pressures greater than 103 kPa and temperatures above 65°C
      • Pressures greater than 1720 kPa

    Registration Process

    • The manufacturer of the fitting must have high-quality control standards and proof that the fitting can endure the type of service it was designed for.
    • An application for registration is made in the jurisdiction where the fitting will be used.
    • Design engineers review the application and evidence, and if the fitting is found suitable, the registering jurisdiction issues a Canadian Registration Number (CRN).

    Fittings Requiring Registration

    • Pipe fittings (e.g. couplings, tees, elbows, wyes, plugs, unions, pipe caps, reducers, flanges, valves)
    • Expansion joints, flexible connections, and hose assemblies
    • Strainers, filters, separators, and steam traps
    • Measuring devices (e.g. pressure gauges, level gauges, sight glasses, levels, pressure transmitters)
    • Pressure relief devices and fusible plugs used for overpressure protection

    Importance of Registration

    • Installers and end-users are assured of reasonable quality and suitability for pressure service with registered fittings.
    • Most jurisdictions prohibit the use of non-registered fittings in pressure service.

    Code References

    • ASME BPVC I Power Boilers and ASME B31.1 Power Piping Code address design and fabrication requirements for high-pressure plant piping installations.
    • ASME BPVC IV Heating Boilers, ASME BPVC VII Recommended Rules for the Care and Operation of Heating Boilers, and ASME B31.9 Building Services Piping Code address design and fabrication requirements for low-pressure plant piping installations.
