PED · European harmonised standards
PED software for strength calculation
sPEeD-Analyze covers the five harmonised EN standards that satisfy the Pressure Equipment Directive — for boilers, pressure vessels, piping and flange joints.
One toolbox for pressure-equipment compliance
The calculation engine behind certified pressure equipment
Why it matters
Every pressure vessel above 0.5 bar must comply
Since 29 May 2002, all boilers and pressure vessels at 0.5 bar or higher must be approved in accordance with the Pressure Equipment Directive. The harmonised EN standards are the route to that approval — and sPEeD-Analyze implements them directly.
Many manufacturers still run spreadsheets based on older national norms (TRD, British Standard). As those are replaced by the harmonised EN norms, moving to sPEeD-Analyze removes the manual errors and the uncertainty of doing it by hand.
Coverage
Five EN standards, one platform
EN 13445 is the main norm the others reference. Data can be exchanged between packages despite differing nomenclature.
| EN 12952 | Water-tube boilers — Strength calculation of water-tube boilers and auxiliary installations. |
| EN 12953 | Shell boilers — Strength calculation of shell boilers. |
| EN 13445 | Unfired pressure vessels — Strength calculation of unfired pressure vessels; the main reference norm. |
| EN 13480 | Industrial piping — Strength calculation of metallic industrial piping. |
| EN 1591 | Flange joints — Strength calculation of flange joints. |
What sPEeD-Analyze secures
Faster certification, fewer errors
Advantages
Designed around the engineer
The deliverable
Reports your notified body will accept
The report is the product. sPEeD-Analyze produces structured calculation reports with references to the exact formal expression in the applicable norm — using the same nomenclature as the standard, which keeps the review unambiguous.
Documentation & updates
References to the specific formal expression in each norm, using the standard’s own nomenclature. Updated continuously for corrections and revisions to the standards.
Customised courses
Training for the employees who will use the software — plus courses in heat transmission, thermodynamics and energy savings.
Development plans
Ongoing work on the EN standards, including new software for EN 14394 heating boilers. Programs can be customised to your requirements.
