EU Technical standards for pressure equipment In order to be placed on the European Union (EU) market, pressure equipment and assemblies of pressure equipment must comply with the essential safety requirements laid down by Directive 97/23/EEC (OJ L- 181 09/07/1997). Product Scope The Directive applies to the design, manufacture and conformity assessment of pressure equipment and assemblies of pressure equipment with maximum allowable pressure greater than 0.5 bar. The term pressure equipment includes vessels, piping, safety accessories and pressure accessories. Where applicable, pressure equipment includes elements attached to pressurised parts, such as flanges, nozzles, couplings, supports, lifting lugs etc. Those items listed in Article 1 paragraph 3 are excluded from the scope of the Directive. In particular, the Directive does not apply to certain equipment covered by other EU directives such as: simple pressure vessels aerosol dispensers some equipment intended for the functioning of vehicles machinery lifts electrical equipment designed for use within certain voltage limits medical devices appliances burning gaseous fuels equipment and protective systems intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres 1. Essential requirements Pressure equipment and assemblies as defined in article 3 of Directive 97/23/EEC must satisfy the essential requirements set out in Annex I to the Directive. These requirements are related to design, manufacture, materials, testing, marking, labelling and instructions.

EU Technical standards for pressure equipmentIn order to be placed on the European Union (EU) market, pressure equipment and assemblies of pressure equipment must comply with the essential safety requirements laid down by Directive 97/23/EEC (OJ L-181 09/07/1997).

Product Scope

The Directive applies to the design, manufacture and conformity assessment of pressure equipment and assemblies of pressure equipment with maximum allowable pressure greater than 0.5 bar. The term pressure equipment includes vessels, piping, safety accessories and pressure accessories. Where applicable, pressure equipment includes elements attached to pressurised parts, such as flanges, nozzles, couplings, supports, lifting lugs etc.

Those items listed in Article 1 paragraph 3 are excluded from the scope of the Directive. In particular, the Directive does not apply to certain equipment covered by other EU directives such as:

simple pressure vessels aerosol dispensers some equipment intended for the functioning of vehicles machinery lifts electrical equipment designed for use within certain voltage limits medical devices appliances burning gaseous fuels equipment and protective systems intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres

1. Essential requirements

Pressure equipment and assemblies as defined in article 3 of Directive 97/23/EEC must satisfy the essential requirements set out in Annex I to the Directive. These requirements are related to design, manufacture, materials, testing, marking, labelling and instructions.

Where the materials used in the manufacture of the pressure equipment are not covered by a harmonised standard, they may be eligible for a European materials approval certificate. This document certifies that the various types of materials comply with the essential requirements laid down in Directive 97/23/EEC. A list of the relevant approvals shall be published in the Official Journal of the European Union.

2. Harmonised standards

Harmonised standards are technical specifications that would enable to meet the essential requirements. Products manufactured according to these harmonised standards benefit from a presumption of compliance with the essential requirements.

Harmonised standards are developed by the European Standardisation bodies: The European Committee for standardisation (CEN) and the European Committee for Electrotechnical standardisation (CENELEC), published in the Official Journal of the European Communities and transposed into national legislation in the form of national standards.

A list of references of harmonised standards can be found at:

http://europa.eu.int/comm/enterprise/newapproach/standardization/harmstds/reflist/equippre.html

3. Conformity assessment

Pressure equipment is classified by categories (Annex II to the Directive) depending on the risk level. Pressure equipment classified under categories I to IV needs to go through the appropriate conformity assessment procedures (referred to as “modules”) that are required to certify that products comply with the provisions laid down in the Directive.

The different procedures to be applied for the various categories are described in Annex III to the Directive.

Assemblies are covered by a general conformity assessment procedure.

In certain cases the intervention of a third party (notified body) is needed. Notified bodies are organisations designated by the Member States and notified to the European Commission and the other Member States, that are in charge of assessing manufacture’s conformity to the essential requirements when a third party is required.

4. CE-marking

The CE marking has to be affixed to pressure equipment and assemblies before being placed on the market. It symbolises the conformity of this equipment with the essential requirements laid down in the Directive.

It shall be affixed in a visible, easily legible and indelible form to each item of pressure equipment or each assembly and must be accompanied by the identification number of the notified body involved at the production control phase.

Legislation

Directive 97/23/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 May 1997 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States concerning pressure equipment (OJ L-181 09/07/1997)
