4 Requirements
4.1 General requirements
Unless otherwise specified, the requirements shall be valid for each single measurement.
For information on suitable guidelines for inspection of factory made fitting assemblies, see Annex A.
4.2 Service pipe parts
4.2.1 Steel service pipe parts
4.2.1.1 General
The material of the fitting steel parts shall be certified in accordance with EN 10204. If traceability on
material is required by the end user it shall be specified at the time of ordering. Corresponding material
certificates shall be delivered to the end user if specified at the time of ordering.
4.2.1.2 Specification
The fitting steel material shall be in accordance with the steel grade specification in EN 17415-1.
All steel pipes and components used for manufacturing of pipe assemblies under the scope of this document
shall as a minimum be delivered to the manufacturer with an inspection certificate 3.1 according to
EN 10204. The inspection certificate shall on request be passed on to the client who orders the fitting
assemblies.
In case a material related inspection certificate 3.1 according to EN 10204 is required by the client who
orders the fitting assemblies, this request shall be given whilst placing the order with the manufacturer of
the fitting assemblies.
NOTE Any later request for provision of such documentation could be too late and possibly can't be met by the
manufacturer, since the manufacturer needs to organize the assignment of 3.1 certificates to pipes and part of pipes
before starting the production.
4.2.1.3 Wall thickness and diameter
All components shall be designed for a minimum operating pressure of 16 bar.
If the fitting assemblies are intended to be used in situations with pressures higher than 16 bar, extra
calculations will be necessary.
The minimum nominal wall thickness of all components shall prior to processing be at least the same as for
the service pipes in accordance with EN 17415-1.
The nominal diameter, the outside diameter, the tolerances on the diameter of the pipe ends and the wall
thickness shall be the same as for the service pipes in accordance with EN 17415-1.
Subject to design considerations other wall thicknesses than those given in EN 17415-1 may be used, but in
no case shall these be less than the minima indicated in EN 17415-1.

---------------------- Page: 9 ----------------------
SIST EN 17415-2:2021
EN 17415-2:2021 (E)
All components shall be designed in accordance with EN 13941-1 for the actions and stresses that normally
occur during the service life of the fitting assembly (or of the component).
4.2.1.4 Bends
4.2.1.4.1 Butt welding bends
The dimensions shall be in accordance with EN 10253-2 with the exception that the bend radius shall
be ≥ 1,5 times the outer diameter.
4.2.1.4.2 Cold formed bends
Cold formed bends shall be produced from seamless pipe or longitudinal welded pipes. At cold formed bends
made of longitudinal welded pipes the weld bead shall be welded to factor V = 1 (calculation stress = 100 %).
After bending, the minimum wall thickness of the bent pipe shall be not less than 85 % of the wall thickness
of the straight pipe (see EN 17415-1).
The maximum ovality in the bent area shall not exceed 6 %.
The formula for the calculation of the ovality is:
D − D
( )
s max s min
o ×100 (1)
D
s
where
o is the ovality, in %;
D is the maximum outside diameter;
s max
D is the minimum outside diameter in the same cross section in the bended area;
s min
D is the specified outside diameter.
s
There shall be no folding in the bent area. Waves may be accepted, when the maximum height between
trough and crest of the wave does not exceed 25 % of the nominal wall thickness of the bent pipe.
4.2.1.4.3 Hot-formed bends
For hot-formed bends manufactured from straight pipes by means of inductive heating (induction bends), no
heat treatment is necessary as far as this method is applied with unalloyed or low-alloyed steel with
[Mo] < 0,65 %. Hot-formed bends shall be supplied in conformity with EN 14870-1.
If for the bending other heating methods are applied, heat treatment following the bending of the pipes is
required.
If a hot-formed bend has to be made from line pipe, this shall be specified to the pipe manufacturer at the
time of ordering so that the pipe manufacturer can take this into account when selecting the (chemical)
composition of the pipe material and the welding filler material.
It is recommended to determine per batch, diameter, wall thickness and bend radius, through mechanical
testing, that the bends comply with the applicable material specifications. It is customary that a
representative bend or an (additional) section of a bend of adequate length will be manufactured during the
production process and that 10 % of the bends will be tested.

4 Requirements
4.1 General requirements
Unless otherwise specified, the requirements shall be valid for each single measurement.
For information on suitable guidelines for inspection of factory made fitting assemblies, see Annex A.
4.2 Service pipe parts
4.2.1 Steel service pipe parts
4.2.1.1 General
The material of the fitting steel parts shall be certified in accordance with EN 10204. If traceability on
material is required by the end user it shall be specified at the time of ordering. Corresponding material
certificates shall be delivered to the end user if specified at the time of ordering.
4.2.1.2 Specification
The fitting steel material shall be in accordance with the steel grade specification in EN 17415-1.
All steel pipes and components used for manufacturing of pipe assemblies under the scope of this document
shall as a minimum be delivered to the manufacturer with an inspection certificate 3.1 according to
EN 10204. The inspection certificate shall on request be passed on to the client who orders the fitting
assemblies.
In case a material related inspection certificate 3.1 according to EN 10204 is required by the client who
orders the fitting assemblies, this request shall be given whilst placing the order with the manufacturer of
the fitting assemblies.
Any later request for provision of such documentation could be too late and possibly can't be met by the
manufacturer, since the manufacturer has to organize the assignment of 3.1 certificates to pipes and part of
pipes before starting the production.
4.2.1.3 Wall thickness and diameter
According to the scope of this document, all components shall be designed for a minimum operating
pressure of 16 bar.
If the fitting assemblies are intended to be used in situations with pressures higher than 16 bar, extra
calculations will be necessary.

The minimum nominal wall thickness of all components shall prior to processing be at least the same as for
the service pipes in accordance with EN 17415-1.
The nominal diameter, the outside diameter, the tolerances on the diameter of the pipe ends and the wall
thickness shall be the same as for the service pipes in accordance with EN 17415-1.
Subject to design considerations other wall thicknesses than those given in EN 17415-1 may be used, but in
no case shall these be less than the minima indicated in EN 17415-1.
4)
All components shall be designed in accordance with EN 13941-1 for the actions and stresses that
normally occur during the service life of the fitting assembly (or of the component).
4.2.1.4 Bends
4.2.1.4.1 Butt welding bends
The dimensions shall be in accordance with EN 10253-2 with the exception that the bend radius shall
be ≥ 1,5 times the outer diameter.
4.2.1.4.2 Cold formed bends
Cold formed bends shall be produced from seamless pipe or longitudinal welded pipes. At cold formed bends
made of longitudinal welded pipes the weld bead shall be welded to factor V = 1 (calculation stress = 100 %).
After bending, the minimum wall thickness of the bent pipe shall be not less than 85 % of the wall thickness
of the straight pipe (see EN 17415-1).
The maximum ovality in the bent area shall not exceed 6 %.
The formula for the calculation of the ovality is:
D − D
( )
s max s min
o ×100 (1)
D

area;
D is the specified outside diameter.
s
There shall be no folding in the bent area. Waves may be accepted, when the maximum height between
trough and crest of the wave does not exceed 25 % of the nominal wall thickness of the bent pipe.
4.2.1.4.3 Hot-formed bends
For hot-formed bends manufactured from straight pipes by means of inductive heating (induction bends), no
heat treatment is necessary as far as this method is applied with unalloyed or low-alloyed steel with
[Mo] < 0,65 %. Hot-formed bends shall be supplied in conformity with EN 14870-1.
If for the bending other heating methods are applied, heat treatment following the bending of the pipes is
required.

If a hot-formed bend has to be made from line pipe, this shall be specified to the pipe manufacturer at the
time of ordering so that the pipe manufacturer can take this into account when selecting the (chemical)
composition of the pipe material and the welding filler material.
It is recommended to determine per batch, diameter, wall thickness and bend radius, through mechanical
testing, that the bends comply with the applicable material specifications. It is customary that a
representative bend or an (additional) section of a bend of adequate length will be manufactured during the
production process and that 10 % of the bends will be tested.
4.2.1.4.4 Tolerances of bending angles
The deviation from the nominal bending angle shall not exceed the tolerances given in Table 1.
