PED 2014/68/EU: Blowdown Tank - Case Study

Understanding how the Pressure Equipment Directive (PED 2014/68/EU) applies to specific equipment is crucial for industry professionals. This course uses a detailed blowdown tank case study to illustrate the step-by-step process of PED compliance, from assessing scope to final documentation and certification.
Participants will explore key concepts such as risk categorization, conformity assessment, and working with Notified Bodies (NoBo). The course also covers the use of non-harmonized materials, non-destructive examinations, welder qualifications, and the preparation of technical documentation. The case study culminates with guidance on creating a nameplate and issuing the Declaration of Conformity (DoC).

Topics include:
Scope assessment (Yes/No decisions)
PED risk category determination
Conformity assessment and NoBo involvement
Handling non-harmonized materials
Non-destructive examination procedures
Welder qualification requirements
Technical documentation preparation
Nameplate design and DoC issuance

Through this practical approach, participants will gain a clear understanding of how to apply PED requirements to real-life scenarios. This course is ideal for professionals looking to deepen their expertise in PED compliance.
