How Is a Pressure Vessel Defined According to the Pressure Equipment Directive?

According to the Pressure Equipment Directive, a vessel is classified as a pressure vessel when it is designed for an operating overpressure of more than 0.5 bar. This applies to pressure vessels, steam boilers, pipelines, heat exchangers, pressure-rated equipment components, as well as the assembly of pressure equipment into assemblies.
Vessels below 0.5 bar are not subject to mandatory inspection and are not subject to any corresponding standard. Vessels that are operated exclusively under negative pressure (vacuum) are also not subject to the Pressure Equipment Directive.

Application Areas for Pressure Vessels

Our food-grade pressure vessels are frequently used as sterile tanks, pressure-rated storage tanks or process vessels in food production. In addition to overpressure or vacuum-rated designs, they must meet the highest hygiene requirements. This is achieved through ground weld seams, CIP cleaning spray balls and food-grade fittings. Ideal for sterile applications in the dairy, beverage and food industry.

At Behälter KG, we offer you a broad range of factory new and used pressure vessels and pressure tanks for the food industry. Our stock includes pressure vessels in all sizes – from 50-litre pressure-rated process vessels for mayonnaise to 500 hl beer pressure tanks.

Increasingly Popular – Pressure Vessels as Buffer Tanks for Industrial Heat

Pressure-rated buffer tanks are gaining increasing importance as industrial heat storage due to the energy transition. Depending on requirements, 50,000 litre buffer tanks as well as 100,000 litre buffer tanks are popular sizes for industrial heat storage. They store hot water or process heat to efficiently reuse surplus energy. This enables more sustainable production processes, reduced energy losses and lower operating costs – an important contribution to resource conservation in modern industrial plants.

Our Quality Standards for Used Pressure Vessels

At Behälter KG, we place the highest value on the quality and longevity of our pressure vessels – for both custom-built pressure vessels and used pressure tanks. For our used pressure vessels, the quality control begins before the purchase – we determine precisely what the pressure vessel was last used for, which recurring inspections were carried out, and why the pressure vessel is being sold. Most pressure vessels originate from recently decommissioned production lines of renowned companies and have a complete usage history.

We Support Wherever We Can!

Convenient

Trade-In

We take over surplus pressure vessels or complete process plants as part of a new procurement. This reduces your investment costs and creates space for new projects.

Worldwide Shipping

We are happy to provide you with a tailored freight quotation for all pressure vessels and tanks – reliably delivered to your desired destination.

Flexible

Retrofitting & Modification

We support you with the retrofitting or modification of used pressure vessels – including the adaptation of technical documentation.

Technical Consultation

When changing operating pressure, temperature or medium – we support with consultation with inspection bodies and specialist engineers to clarify your questions.

Frequently Asked Questions About Pressure Vessels

The extent of available documentation varies for each vessel – however, it is often completely preserved! On the product detail page, the available documents are precisely listed, e.g. material certificates, inspection documentation, or technical drawings. Many documents can also be viewed directly as downloads. We are happy to provide further documentation digitally upon request.

The modification of pressure vessels is complex, as any change requires an adaptation of the documentation and, where applicable, a re-inspection according to the Pressure Equipment Directive. Contact our sales team to discuss your requirements. We offer professional modifications and adaptations such as additional connections, agitators or insulation – in cooperation with certified specialist companies.

No statutory warranty is offered on used goods. However, our customers can rely on our accommodating support in case of problems: Should an issue arise, we will assist you with the incurred costs or offer a return or exchange of the pressure vessel. For an additional charge, we can also carry out a pressure test of the product space or the double jacket at our warehouse to proactively exclude potential risks.

We manufacture factory new stainless steel pressure vessels with a volume from 500 to 100,000 litres – individually to your specifications. Available options include vertical or horizontal designs, configurations for overpressure up to 10 bar or full vacuum, as well as all common stainless steel alloys such as 1.4301 (V2A), 1.4404 (V4A), 1.4571 or 1.4539. We also offer matching agitator technology, fittings and accessories for your individually manufactured pressure vessel.

Our new pressure vessels are manufactured according to the European standard DIN EN 13445 – one of the most demanding standards for pressure equipment. Upon request, we also take into account the AD 2000 code of practice, which has been proven in Germany for decades.
