Ammonia Plant Equipment Design Pressures and Temperatures

I defer to Mr Tornado

Thanks.

Have you looked anywhere besides here?

In my storage boxes at home but the information I was looking for seems to be eluding me. Please help me out.

The data needs to be stored carefully at the facility for immediate reference, not hidden away at someone's home!

These things will be in the design documentation for that particular plant. Sadly, none of it can be seen from here.

As the plant ages, periodic insurance examinations will take place in the presence of the Engineer/Surveyor for the company providing burst indemnity insurance cover for it as witness. The records of those examinations, and the maximum working pressure assessment for the equipment at that time and from then to the next insurance examination, will be found therein. Sadly, none of it can be seen from here.

Your question is quite complex, if answered in full. This is partly because the terms "design temperature/pressure" can have more than one meaning. I will follow up later with some partial information.

Thanks for the response. I was looking for the vessels design pressures and temperatures. Like high temp shift operating pressure is 400 psig and exit temperature is 800 °F and low temp shift operating pressure and temp is 375psig and exit temperature is 450 °F so what are design pressures and the design temperature for both and the other vessels such as Methanator and including ammonia converter. I can add 50 °F and 15 psig or 10% to the pressures but actually I was looking for the design pressure and the temperatures by the vendors like, KBR, Topsoe and Uhde the major players in ammonia industry.

I am not familiar with that range of operating conditions, which sound more like a manufacturing operation rather than refrigeration. This may be such a specialized area that general literature is hard to find.
