compression of which serves only as a cushion;
(6) Hot-water supply boilers, hot-water
heating boilers, and potable water heaters that are directly fired with oil,
gas, or electricity, except that hot-water supply boilers shall be equipped

section IV of the ASME BPVC, when none of the following limitations are
exceeded:
(A) A heat input of 200,000 Btu per
hour;
(B) A water temperature of
210 degrees Fahrenheit;
(C) A
nominal water-containing capacity of 120 gallons; and
(D) An operating pressure not exceeding 160
psi;
(7) Unfired pressure
vessels designed for a pressure not exceeding fifteen (15) psi and five (5)
cubic feet in volume;
(8) Pressure
vessels not exceeding:
(A) Five (5) cubic feet
in volume and 250 psi design pressure;
(B) Three (3) cubic feet in volume and 350
psi design pressure; or
(C) One and
one-half (1.5) cubic feet in volume and 600 psi design
pressure;
(9) Unfired
pressure vessels containing water and filtering material for use in irrigation
of land;
(10) Unfired pressure
vessels for the storage of cold water;
(11) Fired or self-contained sterilizers,
steam generators, jacketed kettles, or steam cookers when neither of the
following limitations is exceeded:
(A) Heat
input of three (3.0) KW; or
(B) A
volume of one and one half (1.5) cubic feet;
(12) Unfired pressure vessels and piping
containing liquid petroleum gas and liquid natural gas (except that welded
repairs and alterations shall be in accordance with section
12-220-8.1);
(13) Refrigeration pressure vessels and its
associated piping (except that welded repairs and alterations shall be in
accordance with section
12-220-8.1);
(14) Liquid carbon dioxide pressure vessels
(except that welded repairs and alterations shall be in accordance with section
12-220-8.1);
(15) A hot water heater constructed of
continuous coils, which is used only to produce steam vapor to clean machinery,
equipment, and buildings, if:
(A) The tubing
or pipe size does not exceed three-fourths (3/4) of an inch in diameter and
drums and headers are not attached;
(B) The nominal water-containing capacity
does not exceed six (6) gallons;
(C) The water temperatures do not exceed 350
degrees Fahrenheit; and
(D) Steam
is not generated within the coil; and
(16) Pressure vessels containing water heated
by steam or any other indirect means when none of the following limitations are
exceeded:
(A) A heat input of 200,000 Btu per
hour; and
(B) A water temperature
of 210 degrees Fahrenheit provided such pressure vessels shall be equipped with
an ASME-NB stamped safety relief valve.
(d) The marking done in accordance with the
original code of construction and section
12-220-29.1 shall not be concealed
by lagging or paint and shall be exposed unless a suitable record is kept of
the location of the stamping so that it may be readily uncovered at any
time.
