Guidelines
In order to ensure a coherent application of the Pressure Equipment Directive 97/23/EC (PED), Guidelines are developed and agreed by the Commissions Working Group Pressure (WGP). This working group, created as a result of Article 17 of the PED, which requests the Member States to cooperate in order to assist the functioning of this Directive, is composed of representatives of Member States, European federations, the Notified Bodies Forum and CEN and chaired by a representative of the Commission services.

The use of Harmonized European Standards(EN) is not mandatory. Very little interest in the use of the product Harmonized Standards
Manufacturers content with Known international standards ASME Those adopted to PD5500, DODAP, AD2000

However, pressure equipment manufactured using harmonized standards is presumed to comply with the Essential Safety Requirements of the PED.

Who is Responsible?
A manufacturer is the person who is responsible for design and manufacturing a product with a view to placing pressure equipment on the Community market on his own behalf. And the manufacturer is responsible for carrying out conformity assessment in accordance with the procedures laid down by the directive. No allowance for Manufacturer to share responsibility.

To be a Manufacturer

Responsible for design and manufacturing Responsible for carrying out Conformity Assessment The item must be Whole The item must be tested

If any of the above are not met, the fabricator is considered a Subcontractor

HSB Global Standards 7

Subcontractors
A fabricator who cannot fulfill the scope, design and pressure test requirements of a Manufacturer is defined as a Subcontractor. Subcontractors have responsibility for welding and NDE qualifications, and possibly material procurement. Material selection is the responsibility of the Manufacturer.

Manufacturers Responsibilities
Design and manufacture the product in accordance with essential requirements laid down by the directive Selection of the Notified Body and Module(s)
All subcontractors must use the selected Module and Notified Body Except for welding and NDE approval

Pressure Testing CE-Marking Declaration of Conformity

Declaration of Conformity
The manufacturer, or his authorized representative established within the Community, must affix the CE marking to each item of pressure equipment and draw up a written declaration of conformity. The manufacturer, or his authorized representative established within the Community, must keep a copy of the declaration of conformity for a period of ten years after the last of the pressure equipment has been manufactured.
