Information Leaflet on SPV DirectiveEuropeAid /114385/D/SV/CY• an inspection document describing the appropriate examinations and tests to be carried out duringmanufacture, together with the procedures and the frequency with which they are to be performed;• an undertaking to carry out the examinations and tests in accordance with the inspectiondocument referred to above and to have a hydrostatic test or, subject to the agreement of theMember State, a pneumatic test carried out on each vessel manufactured at a test pressure equalto 1,5 times the design pressure.• These examinations and tests shall be carried out under the responsibility of qualified staff whoare sufficiently independent from production personnel, and shall be covered by a report;• the addresses of the places of manufacture and storage and the date on which manufacture is tocommence.In addition, when the product of PS and V exceeds 200 bar.litre, manufacturers shall authorize access tothe said places of manufacture and storage by the body responsible for EC Surveillance, for inspectionpurposes, and shall allow that body to select sample vessels and shall provide it with all necessaryinformation, and in particular:• the design and manufacturing schedule,• the inspection report,• the EC type-examination Certificate, or Certificate of Adequacy, where appropriate,• a report on the examinations and tests carried out.The approved Inspection Body which issued the EC type-examination Certificate, or Certificate ofAdequacy, must, before the date on which any manufacture begins, examine both the document referredto in Article 13(1) and the design and manufacturing schedule referred to in Annex II, Section 3, in order tocertify their conformity where vessels are not manufactured in accordance with an approved prototype.In addition, where the product of PS and V exceeds 200 bar.litre, that body must during manufacture:• ensure that the manufacturer actually checks series-produced vessels.• take random samples at the places of manufacture or at the place of storage of vessels forinspection purposes. The body shall supply the Member State, which approved it, and, on request,the other approved bodies, the other Member States and the Commission, with a copy of theinspection report.CHAPTER III is referring to EC markingCHAPTER IV contains Final provisionsANNEX IInclude the essential safety requirements for the vessels as set out below:MATERIALSMaterials must be selected according to the intended use of the vessels and in accordance with Section1.1 to Section 1.4.1.1.PRESSURIZED PARTSThe materials referred to in Article 1 used for manufacturing the pressurized parts must be:• capable of being welded,• ductile and-tough, so that a rupture at minimum working temperature does not give rise to eitherfragmentation or brittle-type fracture,• not adversely affected by ageing.For steel vessels, the materials must in addition meet the requirements set out in Section 1.1.1 and, foraluminium or aluminium alloy vessels, those set out in Section 1.1.2.They must be accompanied by an Inspection Report drawn up by the producer of the materials asdescribed in Annex II.

Steel vesselsNon-alloy quality steels must meet the following requirements:• they must be non-effervescent and be supplied after normalization treatment, or in an equivalentstate;• the content per product of carbon must be less than 0,25 % and that of sulphur and phosphorusmust each be less than 0,05 %; and• they must have specific mechanical properties per product.Summary list of titles and references of harmonised standards under Directive 87/404/EEC relatedto Simple Pressure VesselsStandardreferenceTitleEN 286-1 Simple unfired pressure vessels designed to contain air or nitrogen: Part 1:pressure vessels for general purposesThe presumption of conformity, conferred by standard EN 286-1 of 1991published in the OJ C 104 of 1992-04-24, ends on 1998-08-31.EN 286-2EN 286-3EN 286-4EN 571-1EN 583-1Part 2: pressure vessels for air braking and auxiliary systems for motor vehiclesand their trailersPart 3: steel pressure vessels for air braking equipment auxiliary and pneumaticequipment for railway rolling stockPart 4: aluminium alloy pressure vessels for air braking equipment and auxiliarypneumatic equipment for railway rolling stockNon-destructive testing — Penetrant testing — Part 1: General principlesNon-destructive testing — Ultrasonic examination — Part 1: General principlesEN 1011-1 Welding — Recommendations for welding of metallic materials — Part 1:General guidance for arc weldingEN 1290EN 1330-3EN 1714EN 6520-1EN 12062Non-destructive examination of welds — Magnetic particle examination of weldsNon-destructive testing — Terminology — Part 3: Terms used in industrialradiographic testingNon-destructive examination of welds — Ultrasonic examination of welded jointsWelding and allied processes — Classification of geometric imperfections inmetallic materials — Part 1: Fusion welding (ISO 6520-1:1998)Non-destructive examination of welds — General rules for metallic materialsANNEX II include1.
