The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) is a professional organization that develops and publishes standards and codes for the design, fabrication, and inspection of mechanical equipment, including injection quills. The ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (BPVC) is the primary set of rules that governs the design, fabrication, and inspection of injection quills.

One of the main sections of the BPVC that applies to injection quills is Section III, which covers the design and fabrication of nuclear power plant components. Injection quills used in nuclear power plants must be designed and fabricated in accordance with the requirements of Section III, which includes specific rules for materials, design, fabrication, and testing.

Another section of the BPVC that applies to injection quills is Section VIII, which covers the design and fabrication of pressure vessels. Injection quills that are used as pressure vessels, such as those that are used to inject steam into a process stream, must be designed and fabricated in accordance with the requirements of Section VIII, which includes specific rules for materials, design, fabrication, and testing.

In addition to the BPVC, there are also other codes and standards that may apply to injection quills, depending on their application and the industry they are used in. For example, the National Board Inspection Code (NBIC) governs the inspection and repair of pressure vessels, including injection quills.

It’s important to mention that specific rules and regulations may apply in different countries and regions , the above standards and codes are only a reference and should be checked with the specific regulations in your area

In summary, injection quills must be designed and fabricated in accordance with the rules and regulations set by the ASME and other relevant codes and standards. This typically includes specific rules for materials, design, fabrication, and testing. It’s important to consult the appropriate codes and standards when designing, fabricating, and inspecting injection quills to ensure compliance with the regulations.
