211 Guidance on the specification of pressure vessels
This new guidance deals with the specification of pressure vessels for a variety of different circumstances not addressed in design codes. It brings together the practical lessons learnt about design, manufacturing and testing of pressure vessels based on users’ experience. The guidance examines the circumstances under which repeat post-weld heat treatment (PWHT) may be waived; describes methods for assessing both existing and new pressure vessels for exceptional internal pressures; and covers improvements in the specification and reliability of nozzles.

223 Pressure Equipment Testing after Repair, Modifications or Re-rating: A Guide to the Pressure Test Waiver
This Publication has been developed, in close liaison with the British Health & Safety Executive (HSE), to assist owners and operators of pressure equipment to determine where it may be permissible to waive a hydrostatic pressure test before re-introducing equipment into service and instead rely on other forms of integrity assurance. EEMUA 223 relates to ‘in-service’ situations, such as testing after major modification, significant repair or re-rating, rather than new build.

168 A Guide to the Pressure Testing of In-service Pressurised Equipment
Since the First Edition of EEMUA 168 was published in 1991, there has been a significant rise in the understanding of the technology surrounding pressure testing. The variety and reliability of non-destructive testing techniques has increased and the application of fracture mechanics has provided a more quantitative approach. The new substantially revised Second Edition of EEMUA 168 reflects these developments and the concurrent changes to the standards for pressure vessels, particularly where ‘proof stress’ is of primary concern.

215 Industrial Cooling Tower Fans and Fin Fans - Guide for Design, Maintenance and Operation
This publication addresses the best design, maintenance and operation of mechanical draught cooling tower fans and fin fans used in air cooled heat exchangers. If fans are neglected until they fail, there is often extensive damage to the housing and danger of pieces of blade being thrown out. As well as causing damage to plant, this type of failure presents an unacceptable risk to the safety of personnel. This publication sets out the appropriate maintenance practices and gives a framework for the maintenance routines, including specific details of what is required.

205 A Guide to the Production Testing of Valves for the Energy, Process and related Industries
This Guide sets out recommended production tests to be applied to the main types of valve used in the energy, process and related industries: ball, plug, gate, butterfly and globe. It is a common assumption that valve test and product standards contain all that is required to ensure adequate performance, but this is not always the case. By adopting the tests specified here, EEMUA expects that the user’s requirements will be better fulfilled, particularly for critical services.

200 Guide to the Specification, Installation and Maintenance of Spring Supports for Piping
A common problem faced on construction sites and operating plants with certain piping systems, is a lack of specialist knowledge on effective and safe setting and maintenance of piping spring supports, particularly where there is a significant temperature difference between the hot (operating) and cold (shutdown) conditions of the plant. This publication aims to address this problem by providing data on the specification of piping supports (in particular the information required by the manufacturer), information to be recorded in the pipe support index, installation and commissioning procedures, in-service inspection and maintenance, and dynamic restraints.
This publication addresses the problem. It covers the specification of piping supports—in particular the information required by the manufacturer—the information to be recorded in the pipe support index, installation and commissioning procedures, in-service inspection and maintenance, and, as a separate section, dynamic restraints.

199 On-Line Leak Sealing of Piping: Guide to Safety Considerations
Certain types of leak from pressurised piping (including valves) may be effectively contained by on-line sealing methods involving the use of elastomeric compounds. These (essentially temporary) repair methods were originally developed for application to leaking steam and condensate systems. However with additional safety precautions, they may be applied to process piping systems containing flammable, corrosive and/or toxic fluids. The publication gives guidance on the limits of application of the technique, the factors to be considered when evaluating the feasibility of its use, the preparation and execution of the procedure and the type of risk assessment required.

196 Valve Purchasers' Guide to the European Pressure Equipment Directive
The European Pressure Equipment Directive (PED) became part of European countries' law in 2002. This guide 'cuts through the fog' by identifying and explaining those areas of the PED that valve purchasers need to know and understand. It also gives information on those guidelines issued by the European Commission's Working Group of relevance to valves. Purchasers of other items of pressurised equipment will also find useful guidance in the publication. Topics include a one-page guide to the PED; how the conformity assessment modules affect valves; routes to materials compliance, marking, certification and documentation; responsibilities of manufacturers, inspection bodies and users; a step-by-step procedure for establishing valve 'category'.

184 Guide to the Isolation of Pressure Relieving Devices
Pressure relieving devices generally require more frequent inspection and maintenance than the rest of process plant. By providing isolation, devices can be removed with the plant remaining in operation. However isolation introduces the risk of inadvertent disconnection of a pressurised system from its relieving device; such isolation therefore needs to be rigorously controlled. This publication offers guidance on the design, installation, management and operation of isolation systems, identifying the key points to be considered. The second edition revises and updates the original 1996 edition. It is a companion volume to EEMUA Publication 188 Guide for Establishing Operating Periods of Safety Valves.
