Simple unfired pressure vessels designed to contain air or nitrogen - Part 2: Pressure vessels for air braking and auxiliary systems for motor vehicles and their trailers
1.1 This part of this European Standard applies to the design and manufacture of simple unfired serially made pressure vessels, hereinafter referred to as vessels, designed for air breaking equipment and auxiliary systems for motor vehicles and their trailers, and which: a) include fabrication by welding; b) have a simple geometry enabling simple-to-use production procedures. This is achieved by either: 1) a cylindrical shell of circular cross section closed by outwardly dished and/or flat ends having the same axis of revolution as the shell; or: 2) two dished ends having the same axis of revolution. c) have branches not larger in diameter than 0,5 of the diameter of the cylinder to which they are welded. 1.2 It applies to vessels which are intended to contain only compressed air, and which operate within the following constraints: a) subjected to an internal pressure greater than 0,5 bar; b) the parts and assemblies contributing to the strength of the vessel under pressure to be made either of non-alloy quality steel or of non-alloy aluminium or non-age hardening aluminium alloys; c) maximum working pressure 30 bar. The product of that pressure and the capacity of the vessel (PS.V) is greater than 50 bar.litre and not exceeding 1500 bar.litre; d) minimum working temperature - 50 øC and maximum working termperature not higher than 100 øC. It does not apply to vessels specifically designed for nuclear use, to vessels specifically intended for installation in or the propulsion of ships and aircraft, or to fire extinguishers. 1.3 The essential safety requirements are given in annex G.

Overview - EN 286-2:1992 (simple unfired pressure vessels for vehicles)
EN 286-2:1992 is a European CEN standard that specifies requirements for the design and manufacture of simple unfired pressure vessels intended to contain compressed air (or nitrogen) used in air braking and auxiliary systems for motor vehicles and their trailers. It applies to serially produced, welded vessels of simple geometry (cylindrical shells with dished or flat ends or two dished ends) used only for compressed air under defined pressure, volume and temperature limits.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Scope of application
- Vessels for air braking systems and vehicle auxiliary pneumatic systems.
- Designed for compressed air only; not for nuclear use, ship/aircraft propulsion installations, or fire extinguishers.
- Geometry and fabrication
- Simple geometry enabling straightforward production: cylindrical shells with outwardly dished and/or flat ends or two dished ends.
- Fabrication by welding is included.
- Branches (nozzles) limited to a diameter ≤ 0.5 × cylinder diameter.
- Materials
- Parts contributing to strength must be made from non-alloy quality steel or non-age hardening aluminium / non-alloy aluminium alloys.
- Pressure, capacity and temperature limits
- Internal pressure > 0.5 bar and maximum working pressure 30 bar.
- Product of maximum working pressure and vessel capacity PS·V > 50 and ≤ 1500 bar·litre.
- Temperature range: minimum −50 °C to maximum 100 °C.
- Safety
- Essential safety requirements are provided in Annex G of the standard.
Applications and who uses EN 286-2:1992
- Vehicle OEMs and commercial-vehicle manufacturers specifying or sourcing compressed air reservoirs for brake systems and pneumatic auxiliaries.
- Component and tank manufacturers designing, fabricating and certifying simple unfired pressure vessels for road vehicles and trailers.
- Quality, compliance and regulatory engineers ensuring components meet European pressure-vessel requirements for vehicle systems.
- Testing and inspection laboratories verifying pressure and strength characteristics within the standard’s PS·V and temperature limits.
- Aftermarket and repair suppliers replacing or refurbishing air tanks used in braking and auxiliary systems.
