00:00:17.160 00:00:17.170 interval that that vessel has to be
00:00:19.050 00:00:19.060 inspected at and it's going to vary
00:00:21.170 00:00:21.180 according to the pressure rating of the
00:00:24.450 00:00:24.460 boiler and whether a unit is fired or
00:00:27.660 00:00:27.670 unfired high-pressure boilers over 15
