Butt-welding pipe fittings - Part 4: Wrought austenitic and austenitic-ferritic (duplex) stainless steels with specific inspection requirements

This draft European Standard specifies the technical delivery requirements for seamless and welded butt-welding fittings (elbows, concentric and eccentric reducers, equal and reducing tees, caps) made of austenitic and austenitic-ferritic (duplex) stainless steel in two test-categories which are intended for pressure purposes at room temperature, at low temperature or at elevated temperatures, and for the transmission and distribution of fluids and gases.
It specifies:
a)   type of fittings;
1)   type A: butt-welding fittings with reduced pressure factor;
2)   type B: butt-welding fittings for use at full service pressure;
b)   steel grades and their chemical compositions;
c)   mechanical properties;
d)   dimensions and tolerances;
e)   requirements for inspection and testing;
f)   inspection documents;
g)   marking;
h)   protection and packaging.
NOTE   In the case of a harmonised supporting standard for materials, presumption of conformity to the ESRs is limited to technical data of materials in the standard and does not presume adequacy of the material to a specific item of equipment. Consequently it is essential that the technical data stated in the material standard be assessed against the design requirements of this specific item of equipment to verify that the ESRs of the PED are satisfied.

Formstücke zum Einschweißen - Teil 4: Austenitische und austenitisch-ferritische (Duplex-)Stähle mit besonderen Prüfanforderungen

Dieser Norm-Entwurf legt die technischen Lieferbedingungen für nahtlose und geschweißte Formstücke zum Einschweißen (Rohrbogen, konzentrische und exzentrische Reduzierstücke, T-Stücke mit gleichem Abzweig und mit reduziertem Abzweig, Kappen) aus austenitischem und austenitisch-ferritischem (Duplex-) Edelstahl in zwei Prüfkategorien fest, die für Druckbeanspruchungen bei Raumtemperatur, Niedrigtemperatur oder bei erhöhter Temperatur sowie für die Weiterleitung und Verteilung von Fluiden und Gasen vorgesehen sind.
Diese Norm legt fest:
a)   die Art der Formstücke;
1)   Typ A: Formstücke zum Einschweißen, verminderter Ausnutzungsgrad;
2)   Typ B: Formstücke zum Einschweißen, voller Ausnutzungsgrad;
b)   Stahlsorten und ihre chemische Zusammensetzung;
c)   die mechanischen Eigenschaften;
d)   die Maße und Grenzabmaße;
e)   die Anforderungen an die Prüfungen;
f)   die Prüfbescheinigungen;
g)   Kennzeichnung;
h)   die Schutzmaßnahmen und Verpackung.
ANMERKUNG   Im Falle einer unterstützenden harmonisierten Norm für Werkstoffe beschränkt sich die Vermutung der Konformität mit den grundlegenden Sicherheitsanforderungen auf die in der Norm genannten technischen Daten für Werkstoffe und bedeutet nicht, dass davon ausgegangen wird, dass der Werkstoff für ein bestimmtes Gerät angemessen ist. Somit sind die in der Werkstoffnorm angegebenen technischen Daten im Hinblick auf die Anforderungen an die Auslegung des betreffenden Geräts zu bewerten, um sicherzustellen, dass die grundlegenden Sicherheitsanforderungen der Druckgeräterichtlinie (DGRL) erfüllt sind.

Raccords à souder bout à bout - Partie 4 : Aciers inoxydables austénitiques et austéno‐ferritiques avec contrôle spécifique

Le présent document spécifie les exigences techniques de livraison des raccords à souder bout à bout, sans soudure et soudés, (coudes, réductions concentriques et excentriques, tés égaux et réduits, et caps) en aciers inoxydables austénitiques et austéno-ferritiques (duplex) dans deux catégories d'essai, destinés à des usages sous pression à température ambiante, à basse température ou à température élevée, ainsi qu'au transport et à la distribution des fluides et des gaz.
Il spécifie :
a) le type de raccords ;
1) type A : raccords à souder bout à bout à facteur de pression réduit ;
2) type B : raccords à souder bout à bout pour utilisation à pleine pression de service ;
b) les nuances d'acier et leur composition chimique ;
c) les caractéristiques mécaniques ;
d) les dimensions et tolérances ;
e) les exigences en matière de contrôle et d'essai ;
f) les documents de contrôle ;
g) le marquage ;
h) la protection et l'emballage.
NOTE En dernier ressort, la sélection du raccord approprié (matériau, épaisseur) est de la responsabilité du fabricant de l'équipement sous pression (voir la législation européenne sur les équipements sous pression). Dans le cas d'une norme de support harmonisée pour les matériaux, la présomption de conformité aux exigences essentielles de sécurité est limitée aux données techniques des matériaux de la norme et ne suppose pas l'adéquation du matériau à une partie spécifique de l'équipement. Par conséquent, il est essentiel d'évaluer les données techniques présentées dans la norme du matériau en fonction des exigences de conception de l'élément spécifique de l'équipement de façon à vérifier que les exigences essentielles de sécurité de la PED sont satisfaites.

This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 10253-4:2008.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the

EN 10253 comprises a series of European Standards about Butt-welding pipe fittings, namely:
— Part 1: Wrought carbon steel for general use and without specific inspection requirements;
— Part 2: Non alloy and ferritic alloy steels with specific inspection requirements;
— Part 3: Wrought austenitic and austenitic-ferritic (duplex) stainless steels without specific inspection
requirements;

Introduction
In writing this European Standard the competent committee recognized that there are two broad types
of products commonly used, and decided to reflect these in the standard by differentiating between two
parts.
EN 10253-3 describes fittings without formal reference to the pressure resistance, which are not
intended to be used in applications, covered by the Pressure Equipment Directive (2014/68/EU) in
classes I to IV.
EN 10253-4 defines two types of fittings: Type A fittings have the same wall thickness at the welding
ends and at the body of the fitting than a pipe having the same specified wall thickness. Their resistance
to internal pressure is, in general, less than that of a straight pipe with the same dimensions. Type B
fittings showing increased wall
