In the US, what constitutes a pressure vessel versus a manifold and at what point does it need to ASME certified. I'd like a simple definition without having to purchase the ASME code.
Specifically, pulse jet style dust collectors use a compressed air manifold, typically 5 to 6" diameter or a comprable size square unit, that has multiple diaphragm valves feeding from it. I've been informed that these manifolds cannot exceed a certain size without having to be ASME certified. Is this accurate and size an is there a distinction for a vessel versus a manifold?
