Relationship between this European Standard and the Essential
Requirements of EU Directive 97/23/EC

This European Standard has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission to provide a means of conforming to Essential Requirements of the New Approach Directive 97/23/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 May 1997 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States concerning pressure equipment.

Once this standard is cited in the Official Journal of the European Union under that Directive and has been implemented as a national standard in at least one Member State, compliance with the clauses of this standard given in Table ZA.1 confers, within the limits of the scope of this standard, a presumption of conformity with the corresponding Essential Requirements of that Directive and associated EFTA regulations.

1 Whilst it is difficult to define minor repairs, an excavation of maximum length of 100 mm and a depth of e/10 (where e is the component nominal thickness) or 6 mm maximum depth may be considered minor, but values greater than this may be exceeded.

2 A production run is a series of tubes of the same size and material being welded to form a panel on a specific machine within the same machine set-up.
