RE: european directive and regulation for pressure vessel
this derives me to european directive 97/23/EC, which is what i needed,
on the other hand, and excuse me if this is not so correct, but what this directive has to do with the standard EN 13445?
is the EN 13445 a common stardard that has to be accomplished or just a guide (recommended?
thanks again!

What i do not find it clear is if EN 13445 stands for pressure vessels of all materials or just for those made of steel (we manufacture in fibre-glass)
the materials part is about steel, but not sure about the whole directive...
thanks again!

Take a look at http://www.eng-tips.com/faqs.cfm?fid=281 the faq will direct you to the official ped web site, from here you can find harmonised stadards for pressure vessels and related standards.

I have been checking and sending some emails ... There is no standard for pressure vessels made of glass reinforced. Only those manufactured with rowing are considered in the standards.
RE: european directive and regulation for pressure vessel
We are manufacturing pressure vessels according the European Directive of pressure eqipment (PED).
You can find the directive itself at:
ec.europa.eu/enterprise/pressure_equipment/index_en.html
There are lots of standards involved and you have to pay to get them

RE: european directive and regulation for pressure vessel
Yes you are right. I read about that directive. We were looking for a standard for a more precise design guideline.
I have changed some mails with some people who are in charge of the standards, and did not find a standard for manufacturing and design of pressure vessels for glass reinforved plastics pressure vessels apart from rowing which is not our case.
If I am not wrong, the EN 13445 is not for reinfored plastic, but it is an excellent document for steel vessels.
