The Simple Pressure Vessels Regulation 2014/29/EU covers the basic requirements as in other regulations, but does not provide specific information on design, material, production and testing. These questions can be answered by applying accepted national laws and standards.
Vessels with a Pressure x Volume greater than 50 bar/litre must meet the essential safety requirements in Annex I to the Simple Pressure Vessels Regulation and must be subjected to conformity assessment by the notified body.
2014/29/EU Simple Pressure Vessels Regulation It is divided into classes according to the result obtained by multiplying the pressure and volume values. The provisions in each category differ. Multiplication of Pressure and Volume values;
Containers less than 50 bar x liters - Out of Scope
Containers between 3000 bar x liter - 10000 bar X liters - C1
200 bar x liter - 3000 bar x liter containers - C1 or C2
Containers from 50 bar x liter to 200 bar x liter - C1 or C
