This Part of EN 10217 specifies the technical delivery conditions in two test categories for welded tubes of circular cross-section made of austenitic and austenitic-ferritic stainless steel which are intended for pressure and corrosion resisting purposes at room temperature, at low temperatures or at elevated temperatures.
NOTE   Once this document is published in the Official Journal of the European Union (OJEU) under Directive 2014/68/EU, pressure equipment directive, presumption of conformity to the Essential Safety Requirements (ESR) of Directive 2014/68/EU is limited to technical data of materials in this standard and does not presume adequacy of the material to a specific item of equipment. Consequently, the assessment of the technical data stated in this material standard against the design requirements of this specific item of equipment to verify that the ESRs of the Pressure Equipment Directive are satisfied, needs to be done by the designer or manufacturer of the pressure equipment, taking also into account the subsequent manufacturing processes which may affect properties of the base materials.

Geschweißte Stahlrohre für Druckbeanspruchungen - Technische Lieferbedingungen - Teil 7: Rohre aus nichtrostenden Stählen

Dieser Teil der EN 10217 legt die technischen Lieferbedingungen für geschweißte Rohre mit kreisförmigem Querschnitt aus austenitischen und aus austenitisch-ferritischen Stählen, die für Druckbeanspruchungen und für korrosive Medien bei Raumtemperatur, bei tiefen Temperaturen und bei erhöhten Temperaturen bestimmt sind, in zwei Prüfkategorien fest.
ANMERKUNG   Nach Veröffentlichung dieser Norm im EU Amtsblatt (OJEU) unter der Richtlinie 2014/68/EU ist die Annahme ihrer Konformität mit den grundlegenden Anforderungen (ESR) der Richtlinie 2014/68/EU die technischen Daten von Werkstoffen in dieser Europäischen Norm beschränkt, und es darf nicht angenommen werden, dass damit die Eignung des Werkstoffs für ein bestimmtes Ausrüstungsteil festgestellt ist. Folglich müssen die in dieser Werkstoffnorm angegebenen technischen Parameter im Hinblick auf die konstruktiven Anforderungen dieses bestimmten Ausrüstungs¬teils ermittelt werden, um damit zu verifizieren, dass den ESR der Druckgeräterichtlinie entsprochen wird. Dies muss durch den Ausleger oder den Hersteller der Druckgeräte geschehen, der auch den nachfolgenden Herstellungsprozess berücksichtigen muss, der die Eigenschaften des Grundmaterials verändern kann.

Tubes soudés en acier pour service sous pression - Conditions techniques de livraison - Partie 7 : Tubes en aciers inoxydables

La présente partie de l’EN 10217 spécifie les conditions techniques de livraison, pour deux catégories d'essai, des tubes soudés à section circulaire fabriqués en acier austénitique et en acier inoxydable austéno-ferritique utilisés dans les applications nécessitant une résistance à la pression et à la corrosion à température ambiante, à basse température ou à température élevée.
NOTE   Dès lors que le présent document est publié dans le Journal Officiel de l’Union européenne (JOUE) en lien avec la Directive 2014/68/UE, la présomption de conformité avec les exigences essentielles de sécurité de la Directive 2014/68/UE se limite aux données techniques des matériaux spécifiées dans la présente Norme européenne et ne suppose pas l’adéquation des matériaux avec un appareil en particulier. Par conséquent, il doit être procédé à l’évaluation des données techniques spécifiées dans la présente norme de matériaux par rapport aux exigences concernant la conception de cet équipement spécifique, afin de vérifier que les exigences essentielles de sécurité de la Directive 2014/68/UE soient satisfaites qui doit être effectuée par le concepteur ou le fabricant, en tenant compte également des procédés ultérieurs de fabrication qui peuvent affecter les propriétés des matériaux de base.

This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry. This document supersedes EN 10217-7:2014. This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive 2014/68/EU. For relationship with EU Directive 2014/68/EU (formerly 97/23/EC), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document. This European Standard consists of the following parts, under the general title Welded steel tubes for pressure purposes — Technical delivery conditions: — Part 1: Electric welded and submerged arc welded non-alloy steel tubes with specified room temperature properties — Part 2: Electric welded non-alloy and alloy steel tubes with specified elevated temperature properties — Part 3: Electric welded and submerged arc welded alloy fine grain steel tubes with specified room, elevated and low temperature properties — Part 4: Electric welded non-alloy and alloy steel tubes with specified low temperature properties — Part 5: Submerged arc welded non-alloy and alloy steel tubes with specified elevated temperature properties — Part 6: Submerged arc welded non-alloy steel tubes with specified low temperature properties — Part 7: Stainless steel tubes Another European Standard series covering tubes for pressure purposes is: EN 10216, Seamless steel tubes for pressure purposes.
