Relating to an exemption from boiler registration and inspection requirements for certain boilers in medical equipment and autoclaves.

HB 1888 exempts certain boilers used in medical equipment and autoclaves from Texas boiler registration and inspection requirements. Specifically, it applies to boilers that are components of FDA-regulated medical devices, with size limits including a maximum 16-inch diameter, 20 square feet of heating surface (unless electric), 5 cubic feet gross volume, and 100 psi pressure. It also exempts unfired pressure vessels in autoclaves. This directly affects hospitals, clinics, and medical facilities using sterilization equipment like autoclaves, reducing regulatory requirements for these specific devices.
