Pressure System Safety
Regulations 2000
We are UKAS accredited to carry out the inspection of minor pressure systems. As part of these
regulations we provide Written Schemes of
Examination and Thorough Examinations.
Equipment covered by
these regulations include: |
 |
 |
Pressure Vessels |
|
Steam boilers |
|
Autoclaves |
|
Air receivers |
|
Steam Calorifiers |

Coffee Machines with steam

On average every year in Britain there are 150
incidents involving failure of pressure systems, some of them fatal.
An examination is similar to a MOT for a car. It is a statutory examination that is designed to ensure that pressure systems are “safe”.
It is not a substitute for regular and routine
maintenance.
