Norms and guidelines create a framework for the construction, operation, and maintenance of process plants. They describe recommended and well‑proven methods for the sizing of components and promote the harmonization of technical conventions which are used to define the requirements for plant components and aggregates, as well as of the methods to verify that the defined requirements are fulfilled. The application of norms and guidelines simplifies the interaction and thorough alignment between the customers and the suppliers involved in a plant building project.
The pressure equipment directive describes control procedures that are applied for quality assurance during the manufacturing of plant components. The directive is considered durign the basic- and detail-engineering for the sizing of the components as their capacity as well as the process conditions determine the required testing procedures.
MoreThe norm DIN EN 1092‑1 defines geometry and materials of flanges and states maximum permissible operating pressures as a function of the operating temperature. The norm is used for the arrangement planning to ensure compatible connections at the plant components and is furthermore considered for the development of the process concept.

MoreThe ATEX directive defines standards for the design of plant components for the safe operation in potentially explosive areas. It is relevant during the basic- and detail-engineering of the project execution to specify the requirements of the components as well as during the later operation of the plant.
