Orion Instruments® Acquires ASME U Stamp Certification

Orion Instruments® was recently certified as an ASME Section VIII, Division 1 Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code facility. This achievement verifies that ORION’s engineering, manufacturing, and quality systems meet the stringent requirements of ASME Sec. VIII, Div. 1. As a result, our capabilities now include the construction of code stamped chambers to meet end user specifications.

Adding ASME Sec.
