·
· Boiler Capacity: A retort
this large requires a high-pressure steam boiler (typically 500kg/hr to
1000kg/hr capacity).
·
· Floor Loading: Ensure your
factory floor can support the weight of the vessel plus the water and product weight (often exceeding
5-8 tons).
·
· Certification: Ensure the
manufacturer provides a Hydraulic
Test Certificate and complies with ASME or IS 2825 standards for pressure vessels.
