Our Products
Our team effectively acquires and manages raw materials on a large scale, allowing us to be one of the leading providers of military metal fabrication and giving us the capability to take on major projects. We’re your single-source technology solution to design, engineer and fabricate robust military metal vessels.
BEPeterson Certifications for the Defense Industry
BEPeterson takes compliance seriously. We’ve worked hard to ensure we satisfy the industry codes, and all our defense metal fabrication solutions consider safety, risk and security.
JCP Certified Company
Our Joint Certification Program (JCP) certification allows us to receive crucial, unclassified technical military data to produce high-quality military metal fabrication that responds to the needs of the defense industry.
Certified Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE)
As a certified defense metal fabricator, we also hold a CAGE code, which enables us to participate in government procurement processes and contracts. You’re assured of reliable solutions for testing vessels, filter housing and all other defense applications.
Case Studies
Since we have ample experience working with the United States (U.S.) Navy and its contracting suppliers, our designers and engineers possess the skills to start and finish any military project.
SAIC
BEPeterson supplied a custom turnkey hydrostatic testing system to SAIC, a prime contractor to the United States Navy. The BEP engineering team worked extensively with SAIC and subcontractors technical staffs from initial concept and all the way through on-site installation and commissioning.
The test chamber skid with the loading/unloading skid is roughly 6 feet W by 30 feet OAL, while the attached water supply skid is approximately 8 feet by 8 feet.
Test vessel Operating Pressure: 2500 PSIG at 100 degrees Fahrenheit MAWP: 3000 PSIG MDMT: 32 degrees Fahrenheit
The test chamber shall has an extendable rail system with provisions to load and secure the units under test. The system was fully integrated with operator-friendly controls and all electrical and electro-pneumatic controls were mounted in an IP64/NEMA 4 enclosure and met the requirements of NFPA 70 (NEC)
BEPeterson’s facility performed a factory acceptance test (FAT) prior to acceptance and shipment. BEPeterson was responsible for field installation and training at the job site.
Northrop Grumman
Glycol reservoir vessels for the ongoing U.S. Navy SEWIP – Surface Electronic Warfare Improvement Program (see attachment). Multiple pressure vessels are produced annually to support the fleet deployment of this program. The pressure vessels are a necessary component in constructing the SEWIP Block 3 System.
Teledyne
BEPeterson has produced several test vessel systems for Teledyne. These systems are utilized to test submarine electronic cables for the Navy. The pressure vessels have been fitted with QAC—quick opening closures, which improve efficiency and operator safety.
General Dynamics
Currently on order from General Dynamics is a 28-inch O.D. by 216-inch S/L CS pressure chamber designed to 1000 PSI @ 100 Degrees F. The test vessel will have a quick-opening tool-less hinged closure for ease of access and safety. The system is also being designed to accommodate a conveyor system.
Syqwest & Progeny
BEPeterson has produced several test vessels for both of these companies. They both supply sonic devices to the Navy. The vessels have all been designed to 3000 psi.
Our Process
BEPeterson understands that the design and engineering phase is crucial for accurate outcomes. We’ve streamlined the entire process by working with you to devise a suitable solution that meets your specific defense requirements. This minimizes delays and downtime, keeps operations going and maintains high-quality levels.
1. The Design Phase
We support you during the design stage with custom solutions. Our process is efficient, ensuring compliance and functionality for practical results. We assist you with the following during the design phase:
- Support: Our team will verify the existing design or create a new one with you.
- Comprehensive approach: We build our systems to satisfy utility, safety and cost-effectiveness.
- Compliance: All our vessels are designed according to code as we are a holder of the ASME single certification mark and a certificate of authorization.
- Wide selection: Choose from our broad portfolio of military metal fabrication.
2. The Engineering Stage
During the engineering stage, we’ll start bringing your design to life using advanced technology. During this stage, you can look forward to:
- Advanced software: We use Codeware Compress, AutoCAD, Solidworks and Solidworks Simulation (FEA) design and engineering software.
- A dedicated engineer: Every project is assigned a specific engineer.
- Quality control: Our team reviews all products for manufacturability and compliance before material procurement and manufacturing commences.
