Therefore, a temporary boiler or pressure vessel must meet the requirements applicable to a used or re-installed boiler or pressure vessel each time it is shipped to a different location in Indiana. Consequently, if the portable equipment in question has been previously installed at an Indiana location, it will have to have been registered with the division and may or may not have a valid certificate to operate. If a previously registered temporary unit is being re-installed in Indiana and the location of installation is insured by the owner or user of the location, the responsible insuring company's inspector shall be contacted for approval to operate the unit. The division of BPV Safety shall be contacted for the initial inspection of portable equipment not previously registered in Indiana. These fees are totaled and invoiced to the owner or user.
Certificates are valid until their expiration date.
The only exception are those objects having certificates issued by an insuring company's inspector which must remain insured to be valid. Name changes are best reported at the next inspection cycle. Instruction sheets for standard vessels and non-standard vessels are available from the division of boiler and pressure vessel safety to assist applicants in applying for a variance.
