PV/S Certification

• The scope of work for PV/S certification shall follow all the directives mandated in NPD 8710.5D. The pressure systems components include a large number of pressure vessels, heat exchangers, piping, valves, expansion joints, supports, etc. Most of the pressure systems are over 30 years old and may not be designed to the current national consensus codes and standards. The purpose of the certification process is to assure that the systems are recertified and maintained to the current standards to the extent possible

Ops, Maint. and Engineering of Cryo Systems

The scope of work for cryogenic systems includes maintenance, operations, and engineering. Operations and maintenance may include the transfer of small amounts of medium to users in the Glenn research community. The Contractor shall be responsible for operating, maintaining and repairing, all related cryogenic devices. The contractor shall also be responsible for engineering solutions addressing day-to day operations and maintenance and for minor system upgrades.

Relief Valve Testing: The Contractor shall maintain and operate, with appropriately qualified staff, a relief valve testing station provided by the Government to perform relief valve certifications.
