Which standard verifies accumulators used in flame effects?

The selection of the standard verifying accumulators used in flame effects points to ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers) standards or regulations from the Department of Transportation. ASME standards cover a wide array of mechanical and safety aspects pertaining to pressure vessels and other mechanical systems, ensuring they are designed, built, and maintained to specific safety criteria. This is essential for the safe use of accumulators, as they store pressurized gases or fluids that can be hazardous if not properly managed.

The Department of Transportation also plays a role in the regulation of materials and occurrences associated with transportation, including transport safety of equipment that contains pressurized substances. Collectively, these standards ensure that accumulators meet rigorous safety performance criteria before they are used in any applications involving flame effects.

In contrast, ISO standards typically cover broader quality and management systems rather than specific equipment safety like that of accumulators. OSHA regulations are focused on occupational health and safety standards in workplaces, which do not generally address the design and verification of specific equipment like accumulators. NFPA 101 is a life safety code that outlines requirements for building safety and evacuation, rather than focusing on specifics regarding the performance or verification of pressure vessels such as accumulators.
