Pressure equipment with
allowable pressure
≤ 200
bar (2 900 psi)
Pressure instruments with a flange and threaded boss that do not have a pressurized housing do not
fall within the scope of the Pressure Equipment Directive, irrespective of the maximum allowable
pressure.
Reasons:
According to Article 2, point 5 of EU Directive 2014/68/EU, pressure accessories are defined as
"devices with an operational function and having pressure-bearing housings".
If a pressure instrument does not have a pressure-bearing housing (no identifiable pressure chamber
of its own), there is no pressure accessory present within the meaning of the Directive.
Note:
A partial examination shall be performed for pressure instruments that are part of safety equipment
for the protection of a pipe or vessel from exceeding allowable limits (equipment with safety
function in accordance with Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU, Article 2, point 4).
