Exemption Pressure

03/22/2010 2:18 AM

Tin bronze have exemption pressures of 207 barg (3000 psig)

Does " exemption pressure" mean allowable working pressure here? Tks.

More context may be needed to decipher this. Most commonly the allowable working pressure depends in the diameter, thickness, and stress capability of the material. (Other geometry such as formed heads or flat parts is more complicated, but with the same basic idea.)

I haven't heard of "exemption pressure" before, so I wonder if this is an awkward translation from some yet further source.

The expression is meaningless without some context.
