Overview
This European Standard specifies the inspection and testing of individual and serially produced pressure vessels made of steels in accordance with EN 13445-2:2009 subject to predominantly non-cyclic operation (that is, vessels operating below 500 full equivalent pressure cycles). Special provisions for cyclic operation are given in EN 13445-3:2009 and in Annex G of this part of the standard. Special provisions for vessels or vessel parts working in the creep range are given in clause 5, clause 6, clause 10, Annex H and Annex I. The responsible German committee is NA 012-00-05 AA "Unbefeuerte Druckbehälter" ("Unfired pressure vessels") at the Chemical Apparatus Standards Committee (FCNA).
