The following is a comprehensive list of BEPeterson’s Quality Assurance
Codes and Certifications:
ISO 159001:20 NSAI certification
ISO 159001:20 is the world’s foremost quality management standard, used by
hundreds of thousands of organizations in over 170 countries around the globe.
It is part of a series of quality management system standards, sometimes referred
to as ISO 9000.
These comprise:
ISO 9000 – Fundamentals and Vocabulary, which introduces the basic principles
underlying management systems and explains the terminology.
ISO 9001 – Requirements, which specifies the criteria for certification.
ISO 9004 – Guidelines for performance improvements goes beyond ISO 9001 by
identifying how ISO 9001 can be used as a springboard for improving the
efficiency and effectiveness of a quality management system.
This suite of standards is designed to help organizations analyse and improve each
element in their operations, from the selection of suppliers through to sales and
distribution.
Among the many benefits of ISO 9001, the Standard helps organizations to improve
customer satisfaction levels, internal efficiency and employee involvement.
It sets out the essential requirements for a practical and effective quality management
system (QMS) which is, in essence, a system for minimizing risk and maximizing
opportunity.
National Board Certified to ASME Section 8 Div 1
Division 1 provides requirements applicable to the design, fabrication, inspection, testing, and
certification of pressure vessels operating at either internal or external pressures exceeding 15
psig.
Division 1 contains mandatory and non-mandatory appendices detailing supplementary design
criteria, nondestructive examination and inspection acceptance standards.
Welders and weld procedures certified to ASME Section 9 and AWS D1.1 and D1.6
TUV certification AD2000 – Merkblatt HPO
AD-2000 / HP0 is the Certification of manufacturers of pressure vessels and pressure parts.
The PED Pressure Equipment Directive was adopted by the European Parliament and the
European Council in May 1997 and from 29 May 2002 has been obligatory throughout the
European Union with penalties for non-compliance.
AD 2000 stands for “Arbeitsgemeinschaft Druckbehalter”, which translates to Working Group
on Pressure Vessels. “Merkblatter” are “specification sheets”
The certification includes the following services:
assessment of technical documents
assessment of test reports
assessment of testing procedures
check of the reliability of working procedures and personnel
appraisal of materials used
American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) promotes the art, science & practice of
multidisciplinary engineering and allied sciences around the globe.
The ASME Certification Mark, which is regarded as the hallmark of acceptance and
certification, is used to indicate that the stamped item(s) conform to the ASME Boiler and
Pressure Vessel Code (BPVC).
Utilization of the Certification Mark is a means of complying with the laws and regulations in
nearly all U.S. States and Canadian Provinces. In addition, it has been estimated that over 100
countries accept the ASME BPVC as a means of meeting their government safety regulations.
S Certificate of Authorization
Power Boilers
U Certificate of Authorization
Pressure Vessels
UM Certificate of Authorization

The National Board offers the Certificate of Authorization and R symbol stamp for the repair
and/or alteration of boilers, pressure vessels, and other pressure-retaining items.
NB Mark
The NB mark is used by manufacturers to identify items registered (see Registration) with the
National Board. It is also used by pressure relief device manufacturers and assemblers to
identify pressure relief devices that have been certified by the National Board in accordance
with NB-501,
