CEN/TC 54/WG 52 - B - Material selection

This European Standard specifies the requirements, under the regime of the EU Directive 97/23/EC on Pressure Equipment (PED), for the establishment of the technical delivery conditions in the form of:
-   harmonized European Standards for material;
-   European Approval for Materials (EAM);
-   Particular Material Appraisal (PMA)
for metallic materials for pressure equipment in all product forms. Welding consumables are not covered by this standard.
This European Standard was developed predominantly on the basis of steel, nickel and nickel-based materials. However, application to other materials is not restricted but should consider specific aspects relevant to the material concerned.

This European Standard specifies the provisions for inspection documentation of metallic materials, intended to be used under the regime of the PED, to comply with the Essential Safety Requirements 4.2 (b) and 4.3 of Annex I and to comply with the required material specification.
A simplified diagram of the routes for inspection documentation including compliance with the material specification is shown in Figure 1.

WI abandoned - Content of this amendment exists in prA5.

Revision of 4.1.7 and annex A

This document specifies the requirements for steel products used for unfired pressure vessels.
For some metallic materials other than steel, such as spheroidal graphite cast iron, aluminium, nickel, copper, titanium, requirements are or will be formulated in separate parts of this document.
For metallic materials which are not covered by a harmonized material standard and are not likely to be in near future, specific rules are given in this part or the above cited parts of this document.

This Part of this European Standard specifies the requirements for materials (including clad materials) for unfired pressure vessels and supports which are covered by EN 13445-1:2014 and manufactured from metallic materials; it is currently limited to steels with sufficient ductility but it is, for components operating in the creep range, also limited to sufficiently creep ductile materials .
It specifies the requirements for the selection, inspection, testing and marking of metallic materials for the fabrication of unfired pressure vessels.

Revision of table B.2.11

This Part of this European Standard specifies the requirements for materials (including clad materials) for unfired pressure vessels and supports which are covered by EN 13445-1:2014 and manufactured from metallic materials; it is currently limited to steels with sufficient ductility but it is, for components operating in the creep range, also limited to sufficiently creep ductile materials .
It specifies the requirements for the selection, inspection, testing and marking of metallic materials for the fabrication of unfired pressure vessels.

This Part of the European Standard specifies the requirements for the establishment of the technical delivery conditions in form of: - European material Standard; - European approval for material (EAM); - Particular material appraisal; for metallic materials for pressure equipment in all product forms. When properties specific to an application are relevant, e.g. creep, reference should also be made to the appropriate product standard.

It is the pressure equipment manufacturers responsibility to assure that materials for pressure equipment comply with the requirements of the relevant pressure equipment material standard. This Part describes how this shall be applied to materials intended for the manufacturing of pressure parts and attachments to pressure parts. A summary of the routes for compliance and inspection documentation is shown in figure 1-1.
