The Jenny Lake Ranger Station (Grand Teton National Park) actually issues this exact model (BV450) to climbers in need of a bear canister.

Since there is not actual single authority that says what is and isn't approved for all National Parks there is no blanket answer. Each park has their own process for evaluating bear canisters and bags, You're best bet is to get in touch with the actual park you want to visit and get a list of approved containers.
