What ASMEstandard closed loop extractor parts should follow ?

I want to assemble a closed loop extractor from Glaciertank .
For the safety concerns , what ASME standard these parts follow ? And can I use quick tri-clamps ?

ASME Section VIII, with 6" and below being pressure piping and above 6" a pressure vessel.

As LPG pressure piping, it must meet 350 psi, which the smaller sizes do, but the 6" does not with their 13MHP high pressure clamp.

You will need to pick up a 6" SSH clamp at someone like LJ Star, which is rated over 400 psi.

Thank you GW .
And another thing is that I want to add sight glass on the extractor , but I read from your blog that there is a dangerous point to add sight glass between the dump valve and material tube . But from the article ,broken extractor image that I can see that the glass sight is not broken ? So does the sight glass is a factor that cause the explode ?
And another question is that can i use a Long Tee | Tri Clamp to add the sight glass on extractor base so I can see the progress ?

Glass is strongest under compression and weakest under tension. A tubular sight glass under internal pressure is under tension.

A tubular sight glass is not suitable as a structural member taking periodic side loads.

A stainless "tee" or cross with wafer type sight glasses, puts the glass under compression and will work.
