UFC 3-430-07
24 July 2003
including Change 1, Jan 2004 and Change 2, March 2005
UPV designed to be portable is relocated outside the base, any certified NAVFAC boiler inspector or
NAVFAC-approved contract boiler inspector may issue a certificate (9-11014/32) for the length of the
deployment period but not exceeding the original certificate's expiration date. A copy of the original
inspection report and certificate must accompany the pressure vessel during the deployment/transfer
period. The extent of reinspection after the move for pressure vessels designed to be portable consists
of an external inspection to check for damage incurred while in transit, a visual examination to determine
if the installation is conforming with applicable codes and a visual examination to verify that all code
required safety devices are installed. If any of these inspection processes indicates discrepancies with
the pressure vessel and/or installation then the full inspection requirements of this UFC apply.
5.
Use of ultrasonic thickness (UT) testing in addition to internal inspection is highly encouraged.
