Overview

This webinar is hosted by the Heat Transfer Society. 

The UK has left the EU, and the Pressure Equipment Directive, as implemented by The Pressure Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016, is no longer applicable for pressure equipment placed on the market in the UK. New regulations have come into force and these will affect manufacturers, importers and users of pressure equipment.

Simon Earland will give a presentation on the changes to the regulations in the UK, including the Essential Safety Requirements, materials, documentation and standards.

Miles Gardner will give a presentation on conformity assessment, the different types of conformity assessment bodies, and the new markings and when they should be used.
