PRV Service & Inspection – Newfoundland and Labrador

Print Print this Article | Send to Colleague

The regulatory authority responsible for the storage and handling of propane in Newfoundland and Labrador, the Engineering & Inspections division of Service NL, has not approved implementation periods for compliance with the new pressure relief valve (PRV) servicing requirements.
 
Therefore, the current code in Newfoundland and Labrador requires PRVs used on pressure vessels in LPG service to be serviced as follows: 
  • Greater than 2,500 USWG – Maximum servicing interval of 10 years.
  • 2,500 USWG or less – Maximum servicing interval of 25 years.
To facilitate continued research in this area, the regulatory authority in Newfoundland and Labrador is asking affected companies to create an inventory of their vessels and associated pressure relief device last servicing dates and provide their inventory to Service NL. If you have any questions, contact Jean-François Duguay, Regional Manager, Atlantic & Quebec at jeanfrancoisduguay@propane.ca.
