This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by September 2008, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by September 2008. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN and/or CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of the EU Directive 97/23/EC. For relationship with the EU Directive 97/23/EC, see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document. EN 10253 comprises a series of European Standards about Butt-welding pipe fittings, namely: Part 1: Wrought carbon steel for general use and without specific inspection requirements Part 2: Non alloy and ferritic alloy steels with specific inspection requirements Part 3: Wrought austenitic and austenitic-ferritic (duplex) stainless steels without specific inspection requirements Part 4: Wrought austenitic and austenitic-ferritic (duplex) stainless steels with specific inspection requirements In writing EN 10253 the competent committee recognized that there are two broad types of products commonly used for stainless steels, and decided to reflect these in the standard by differentiating between two parts, Part 3 and Part 4. Part 4 defines two types of fittings: Type A fittings have the same wall thickness at the welding ends than a pipe having the same specified wall thickness. Their resistance to internal pressure is, in general, less than that of a straight pipe with the same dimensions. Type B fittings showing increased wall thickness at the body of the fitting are designed to resist the same internal pressure as a straight pipe with same dimensions. These two types of fittings are intended to be used in applications covered by the EU Directive 97/23/EC. According to this Directive and further interpretation guidelines (e.g. guideline 7/19), seamless fittings are considered as materials whereas welded fittings are considered as components. Therefore, in some areas of this European Standard, provisions for seamless and welded fittings are different. The committee recognized the need to provide a basic type in which the minimum wall thickness of the fitting is guaranteed without formal reference to the pressure resistance. This type is considered in Part 3 and includes products not intended for use in applications covered by the Pressure Equipment Directive category I IV except applications according to Article 3 Paragraph 3. Information about structural dimensions of fittings is given in Annex A. For fittings specified in accordance with this part of EN 10253, the resistance to internal pressure of the fitting may be determined by calculation. Annex B gives information about the calculation. For some wall thickness series Annex C lists pressure factors for fittings type A and Annex D lists wall thickness values for the body of the fittings of fittings type B.

Introduction The European Committee for Standardisation (CEN) draws attention to the fact that it is claimed that compliance with this document may involve the use of patents applied to steel grade 1.4410, the compositions of which is given in Table 3. CEN takes no position concerning the evidence, validity and scope of these patent rights. The holder of these patent rights has assured CEN that they are willing to negotiate licences, under reasonable and non-discriminatory terms and conditions, with applicants throughout the world. In this respect, the statements of the holders of these patent rights are registered with CEN. Information may be obtained from: Sandvik AB SE-811 81 SANDVIKEN Sweden Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements within this document may be the subject of patent rights other than those indicated above. CEN shall not be responsible for identifying any or all such patents rights.

It specifies: the type of fittings; type A (see 7.2) type B (see 7.3) the steel grades; the mechanical properties; the dimensions and tolerances; the requirements for inspection and testing; the inspection documents; the marking; the handling and packaging. NOTE In the case of a harmonised supporting standard for materials, presumption of conformity to the Essential Requirement(s) (ESRs) is limited to technical data of materials in the standard and does not presume adequacy of the material to a specific item of equipment. Consequently the technical data stated in the material standard should be assessed against the design requirements of this specific item of equipment to verify that the ESRs of the Pressure Equipment Directive (PED) are satisfied. 1.2 Unless otherwise specified in this European Standard the general technical delivery requirements in EN 10021 apply. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
