Hi....

I have a basic clarification. What are the limits of ASME Sec VIII Div.1 & 2, both in pressure and size of the vessel.

Dear Sukesh,
please refer to the Code Finder program on this homepage, it shows you the limits. In the Book, please read U-1 in Section VIII DIv. 1,

1 thru 200 bar and 150mm ID are the basic limits for Div. 1
Div. 2 is 1 thru 700 bar.

But you better read the Code. There are many special clauses.
