Pressure equipment for refrigerating systems and heat pumps - Part 2: Piping - General requirements

1.1   This document specifies the requirements for material, design, manufacturing, testing and documentation for stationary piping intended for use in refrigerating systems, heat pumps and secondary cooling and heating systems. These refrigerating systems and heat pump systems are referenced in this document as refrigerating systems as defined in EN 378-1:2016.
The term "refrigerating system" used in this document includes heat pumps.
1.2   This document applies to piping, including welded or brazed attachments up to and including the flanges, screwed, welded or brazed connectors, or to the edge to be welded or brazed at the first circumferential joint connecting piping or other elements.
1.3   This document applies to the selection, application and installation of safety accessories intended to protect the piping during the various phases of the refrigeration cycle.
1.4   This document applies to the following piping:
-   heat exchanger consisting of piping for the purpose of cooling or heating air where piping aspects are predominant;
-   piping incorporated into an assembly (e.g. self-contained system, condensing unit);
-   field erected piping.
1.5   This document applies to piping with an internal pressure down to -1 bar, to account for the evacuation of the piping prior to charging with refrigerant.
1.6   This document applies to both the mechanical loading conditions and thermal conditions as defined in EN 13445 3:2014/A5:2018 associated with refrigerating systems. It applies to piping subject to the maximum allowable temperatures for which nominal design stresses for materials are derived using EN 14276-1:2020 or as specified in this document. In addition, piping designed to this document will have a maximum design temperature not exceeding 200 °C and a maximum design pressure not exceeding 160 bar. Outside of these limits, the EN 13480 series can be used for the design construction and inspection of the piping. Under these circumstances, the unique nature of a refrigerating plant, as indicated in the introduction of EN 14276-1:2020, will also be taken into account.
1.7   This document applies to piping where the main pressure bearing parts are manufactured from metallic ductile materials as defined in Clause 4 and in EN 14276-1:2020.

Introduction

This document recognizes the unique nature of piping for refrigerating systems or heat pumps and is

intended to address the specific needs of the refrigeration and heat pump industry. This document should

be read in conjunction with the various parts of the EN 13480 series and EN 14276-1:2020.

The unique nature of a refrigerating system is defined in the Introduction of EN 14276-1:2020.

1 Scope

1.1 This document specifies the requirements for material, design, manufacturing, testing and

documentation for stationary piping intended for use in refrigerating systems, heat pumps and secondary

cooling and heating systems. These refrigerating systems and heat pump systems are referenced in this

document as refrigerating systems as defined in EN 378-1:2016.
The term “refrigerating system” used in this document includes heat pumps.

1.2 This document applies to piping, including welded or brazed attachments up to and including the

flanges, screwed, welded or brazed connectors, or to the edge to be welded or brazed at the first

circumferential joint connecting piping or other elements.

1.3 This document applies to the selection, application and installation of safety accessories intended

to protect the piping during the various phases of the refrigeration cycle.
1.4 This document applies to the following piping:

— heat exchanger consisting of piping for the purpose of cooling or heating air where piping aspects

are predominant;

— piping incorporated into an assembly (e.g. self-contained system, condensing unit);

— field erected piping.

1.5 This document applies to piping with an internal pressure down to –1 bar, to account for the

evacuation of the piping prior to charging with refrigerant.

1.6 This document applies to both the mechanical loading conditions and thermal conditions as defined

in EN 13445-3:2014/A5:2018 associated with refrigerating systems. It applies to piping subject to the

maximum allowable temperatures for which nominal design stresses for materials are derived using

EN 14276-1:2020 or as specified in this document. In addition, piping designed to this document will

have a maximum design temperature not exceeding 200 °C and a maximum design pressure not

exceeding 160 bar. Outside of these limits, the EN 13480 series can be used for the design construction

and inspection of the piping. Under these circumstances, the unique nature of a refrigerating plant, as

indicated in the introduction of EN 14276-1:2020, will also be taken into account.

1.7 This document applies to piping where the main pressure bearing parts are manufactured from

metallic ductile materials as defined in Clause 4 and in EN 14276-1:2020.

4 Material
4.1 General

The materials referenced in this document shall meet the requirements of EN 14276-1:2020 unless

modified by the subclauses of this clause.

It is permitted to use non-metallic materials (e.g. gaskets, coatings, insulating materials, sight glasses)

provided they are compatible with the other materials, refrigerants and lubricants present.

Sight glasses shall comply with EN 12178:2016 for pressure bearing requirements.
4.2 Requirements for materials to be used for pressurized parts

Materials listed in this document have been identified for use in refrigerating piping. If it is required to

utilize a material not listed in this document, the requirements of EN 13480-2:2017 shall be followed

where applicable and the unique nature of refrigerating plant requirements shall also be taken into

account.

As impacted by EN 13480-2:2017/A1:2018, EN 13480-2:2017/A2:2018 and EN 13480-2:2017/A3:2018.

4.3 Materials
4.3.1 General

4.3.1.1 Piping manufactured from the following materials satisfies the requirements of this document for

the pressurized parts.
Material shall be selected from one option described in EN 764-4:2014.

4.3.1.2 Where mechanical properties may be modified by the piping manufacturing process, the material

shall be selected from the following material groups as defined in EN 14276-1:2020, Annex I:

— steel groups: 1.1, 1.2, 8.1;
— aluminium and aluminium alloys groups: 21, 22;

— copper groups: 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, included in EN 1653:1997 , EN 12735-1:2016, EN 12735-2:2016.

4.3.1.3 When materials do not comply with the above requirements, it is also permitted to use materials

which comply with European Approval of Material (EAM) or with Particular Material Appraisal (PMA)

according to EN 764-4:2014.

4.3.1.4 Where the piping manufacturing process does not modify mechanical properties, metallic

materials other than those quoted in 4.3.1.2 can be used if they comply with EAM or with PMA according

to EN 764-4:2014.
4.3.2 Special considerations
The requirements of EN 14276-1:2020, 4.3.3 shall apply.
4.4 Requirements for the prevention of brittle fracture
The requirements of EN 14276-1:2020, 4.4 shall apply.

The brittle fracture should be determined only when the material thickness can permit to make a test

piece according to EN ISO 148-1 with a minimum section size 5 mm × 10 mm.
4.5 Material documentation
The requirements of EN 14276-1:2020, 4.5 shall apply.
4.6 Materials for non-pressure retaining parts
The requirements of EN 14276-1:2020, 4.6 shall apply.
