Did you know?
The Pressure Systems Safety Regulations 2000 covers any pressure systems contain fluid above 0.5 bar gauge or any liquid with a vapour pressure of 0.5 bar gauge or greater at either its working temperature or 17.5ºC

The regulations require the users of pressure systems, including cryogenic vessels and associated pipework, to:

Establish the safe operating limits
Have a suitable written scheme drawn up and certified by a competent person for the regular examination of most pressure vessels, all safety devices and any pipework
Provide adequate operating instructions to ensure the safe operation of the system
Provide adequate emergency instructions
Ensure that the system is properly maintained
Keep adequate records of the most recent examination and any manufacturer’s records supplied with the new system for the designated period in line with the regulations

What if you rent a vessel from BOC?

If you rent a pressurised cryogenic vessel from BOC, you can relax.

All maintenance required under Pressure Systems Safety Regulations 2000 is included in the rental agreement with BOC at no additional cost – ensuring the vessel is always in safe working condition. Our local BOC Cryospeed Sales and Service Operators will carry out the required Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM) inspections in line with the Written Scheme of Examination (WSE)for that particular vessel including the fitting of any replacement parts.

What if you own your vessel?

If you own your own cryogenic vessel, you must ensure that Pressure Systems Safety Regulations 2000 are conformed to
and managed by a competent person. You can do it yourself...

...Or BOC Cryospeed can do it for you with one of two maintenance packages:

BOC Cryocare - for pressure vessels up to and including 500 litres capacity
