ÖNORM EN 12516-3

Issue date: 2025 09 01

Industrial valves - Shell design strength - Part 3: Experimental method

This document specifies requirements for an experimental method to prove that representative samples of valve shells and their body ends, made in cast iron, steel or copper alloy materials, are designed to possess the required pressure containing capability, with an adequate margin of safety. This document is not applicable to valves designed on the basis of time dependent strength values (creep) or valves designed for pulsating pressure applications (fatigue). For valves in the scope of the European legislation for pressure equipment, the sole use of an experimental method is only permitted when the maximum allowable pressure at room temperature, PS, multiplied by the DN-number is less than 3 000 bar. This document is used to supplement the tabulation method EN 12516-1:2014+A1:2018, and the calculation method EN 12516-2:2014+A1:2021 without limit.

Frequently Asked Questions about ÖNORM EN 12516-3

When you purchase a standard from the Austrian Standards webshop (e.g. ÖNORM, ISO), a single-user licence is included as standard. This entitles a single person to use the standard. A multi-user licence is required if several employees need access. It enables company-wide, legally compliant use and sharing of standards.

Standardization thrives on expertise and participation. Anyone interested can play an active role in its further development – for example, by joining the relevant committee or a working group. In this way, you can help shape the content and contribute to advancing the state of the art.
