Periodic reassessment
One more supplement on the Pressure Euipment Directive
Like the Approval for Commissioning, the Periodic Reassessment is also not institutionalised at an European level. Each member state has its own rules and legislation. The responsibility rests upon the user, not the manufacturer.
The Dutch situation: Just like all other working appliances, blast pots must be periodically reassessed. In case the design pressure times the volume exceeds 1000, or: Ps x V = > 1000 this reassessment has to be executed by a Notified Body (NoBo). When this outcome is less, the reassessment can be executed as the owner/user sees fit. For obvious safety reasons the original manufacturer or distributor is usually called upon to perform this task.
- The Periodic Reassessment does not replace the Pressure Equipment Directive but complements it!

The soda media is the ARMEX Maintenance XLÂ formula. For commercial use you can work even faster using large nozzles together with our MicroStrip machine!
