Transcript
The Transportable Pressure Equipment Directive governs the receptacles, valves, accessories and tanks used to move dangerous goods under pressure, across the whole life of the equipment.
It applies to manufacturers, importers, distributors, and to the owners and operators who keep the equipment in service.
Adopted in 2010 to replace Directive 1999/36/EC, it takes its technical rules from the ADR, RID and ADN agreements, which are updated on a two-year cycle, and it uses the Pi marking instead of CE.
You build to the international annexes, have a notified body assess the design type and production, keep technical documentation, affix the Pi marking with the notified body number, carry out periodic and intermediate inspections on time, and use reassessment of conformity for serviceable legacy equipment.
Conphora maps your equipment against TPED and the international rules, flags gaps in conformity assessment, the Pi marking, documentation and inspection intervals, and alerts you when they change.
