Are floats internal to a pressure vessel subject to the requirements of ASME SECTION VIII specifically UG-28?

Short answer, no.

Long answer, the float is not required to be a code component. It falls under the piping components exception U-1(e). It would also likely fall under the size exception in U-1(i).
