Pressure Equipment
Directive 2014/68/EU (PED)
Pressure equipment with allowable pressure ≤ 200 bar (2 900 psi)
Pressure equipment (having a maximum allowable pressure PS ≤ 200 bar (2 900 psi)) can be
classified as pressurized equipment in accordance with Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU. If
the maximum allowable pressure is ≤ 200 bar (2 900 psi) and the pressurized volume of the pressure
equipment is ≤ 0.1 l, the pressure equipment is subject to the Pressure Equipment Directive (cf.
Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU, Article 4, point 3). The Pressure Equipment Directive
only requires that the pressure equipment shall be designed and manufactured in accordance with
the "sound engineering practice of a Member State".
Reasons:
• Pressure Equipment Directive (PED) 2014/68/EU Article 4, point 3
• Pressure equipment directive 2014/68/EU, Commission's Working Group "Pressure", Guideline
A-05 + A-06
Note:
A partial examination shall be performed for pressure instruments that are part of safety equipment
for the protection of a pipe or vessel from exceeding allowable limits (equipment with safety
function in accordance with Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU, Article 2, point 4).
Pressure equipment with allowable pressure > 200 bar (2 900 psi)
Pressure equipment designated for application in every process fluid having a pressurized volume of
< 0,1 l and a max. allowable pressure PS > 200 bar (2 900 psi)shall satisfy the essential safety
requirements set out in Annex I of the Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU. According to
Article 13 pressure equipment shall be classified by category in accordance with Annex II. The
conformity assessment of the pressure equipment shall be determined by the category I
underconsideration of the above-mentioned low pressurized volume. These devices shall be provided
with CE marking.
Reasons:
• Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU, Article 13, Annex II
• Pressure equipment directive 2014/68/EU, Commission´s Working Group "Pressure", Guideline
A-05
Note:
A partial examination shall be performed for pressure instruments that are part of safety equipment
for the protection of a pipe or vessel from exceeding allowable limits (equipment with safety
function in accordance with Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU, Article 2, point 4).
