3. Requirements for manufacturing and subcontracting
3.4 Manufacturing
‘The general responsibilities of the pressure vessel manufacturer are stated in EN 19445-1:2002. Additionally to
those requirements, the manufacturer shall ensure that
2} the organisation forthe contol of manufacturing operations which includes special processes such as welding,
forming and heat treatment shall be clearly defined by the manufacturer;
) the manufacturing procedures such as welding, forming and heat treatment are adequate for the purpose and
Tho pressure vessel meets the requirements of this standard. Where specie requirements are associated with
materials these shell be taken into account, ¢.g. EAMS;
©) the manufacturing equipment Is adequate for fabrication:
@) the staff Is adequate for the assigned tasks;
NOTE As far as welding co-ordination fs concemod, the qualifications, asks and responses °8n be defined by tho
manufacturer in accordance with EN 719 [1] in the job assignment,
{the quality requirements for welding defined in EN 729-3:1994 are met a5 & minimum.
3.2 Subcontracting
“The manufacturer may subcontract wor, but shall ensure thatthe subcontractor caié O41 the work in accordance
Th tr requirements of his European Standard. The manufacturer fs responsible forthe ‘adequate definition of the
subcontracted task and the need for any associated records.
On all occasions that the subcontractor work includes
a) welding;
'b) forming including associated heat treatment;
) post weld heat treatment,
1d) non-destructive testing of welds (see EN 19446-5:2002).Page 8
EN 1945-4 : 2002
“The manufacturer shall obtain a subcontractor form (see Annex B).
Where welding operations are subcontracted, the manufacturer shall also either obtain copies of the welding
procedure and welding operator qualification records or take other action to ensure that they comply with this
standard.
In cischarging his responsibilty to ensure that the subcontractor caries out the wort in accordance with this
catch the manufacturer shal enaure that survellance ofthe subcontracted work Is performed.
Where a manutacturer is producing equipment that requires the intervention of & responsible authority, the
wiperacturer should inform the responsible authority of his intention to subcontract so that the responsible
duuthorty has the opportunity to teke partin he subcontractor surveillance.

¢) check ofthe materia to assure that the materials are permited by Wi European Standard, fully traceable to
{he correct material certfication and as spectied inthe design documentation:
4) check ofthe welding consumables to assure the correct markings and that correct conditions are maintained to
prevent deterioration.Page®
EN 1945-4 : 2002
42.2.2 Material traceablity to the otiginal identification markings shall be by one or more of the following
methods:
2) accurate transfer ofthe original identification markings to a location where the markings will be visible on the
completed vessel;
+) identfication by a coded marking traceable tothe orginal required marking:
©) recording the identification markings using material iste or as built sketches ‘which assure identification of each
piece of material during fabrication and subsequent identficaion inthe completed vessel,
4) the batch numbers of welding consumables shall be recorded.
42.3. Visibility
Materials which cannot be stamped or which will not be visible aftr the vessels ‘completed or for small muttiple
Nis or non pressure paris the manufacturer may operate a documented system ‘which ensures material trace-
ability for all materias in the completed vessel.
4.2.4 Review of material certification and material identification
‘At materiel cortfiation shall be reviewed upon receipt The review shall cover the completences and adequacy of
‘the reports against the following:
4) mechanical and chemical properties required to be reported by the material spectticati
by assuring that the reported results meet the requirements of the specification;
¢) all markings required by the material specification are satisted and that there is traceability between the actual
markings and those recorded on the material certification.
‘Al materials certfication shall be made readily availabe throughout manufacture,
4.2.6 Transfer of markings
In case the original identification markings are unavoidably cutout or the mater is divided into two or more pieces
Tc aee kings shal be accurately transferred by the manufacturer's nominated personnel prior to cutting.
‘The actual material marking shall be by methods which are not harmful to the material in subsequent
uuse/operation.
‘The transter of markings shal teke place before paritioning of the product and alter veriication of the marks
present with the corresponding certification.Page 10

$c pelow the maximum permissible temperature for stress relieving, see Table 10.1-1.
NOTE vette problems may however be encountered at intermediate temperatures in the range 200 °C to 950 °C due to
dynamic sttain ageing inthis temperature range.
old forming of material group 8.1, 8.2 and 10 shall be caried out at temperatures below 300 °C.
For other types of materials the cold forming temperatures shall be taken {rom appropriate European Standards,

9321 General
Hot forming of material group 1.1, 12. 1., 8.1, 4, & 6 and & shall be carried out at temperatures above the
HeLamum permissible temperature for stress relieving, usualy in the temperature range of normalising, in
‘accordance with the material specifications.
Hot forming of thermo-mecharically treated steel grades is not permitted.
Hot forming of material group 8.1, 82 and 10 shal be carried out ata temperature of 800°C or above usually in the
temperature range according to Table 9.3-1
For other types of materials the hot forming temperatures ‘shall be in accordance with appropriate European
Standards, data sheets or other specifications.
“The forming procedute shall define the rate of heating, the holding temperature and the holding time given to the
formed part.
NOTE 1 Hot forming is a process which is perfoomad at temperatures above th stress let temperature and will usuelly bo
