EEMUA 177, Guide to the UK Pressure Systems Safety Regulations (2000), is a practical guide to interpreting the Pressure Systems Safety Regulations (PSSR) that relate to periodic examination of pressure systems, in or out-of-service as appropriate, and certain associated aspects.

Significantly, the newly released Edition 3 of the EEMUA guide includes: Additional guidance on postponement of examinations within Regulation 9; a revision to the guidance on Regulation 10, ‘Action in case of imminent danger’; additional guidance on Regulation 13, ‘Modification and repair’; together with other points of interest based upon actual use of pressure systems covered by the PSSR.

Whilst the guide refers throughout to UK regulations and practice, much of the general advice is relevant to practice outside the UK.

EEMUA 177 (Edition 3) is available to buy from the EEMUA online Shop.

Digital editions are free to employees of EEMUA Member companies and available at a reduced price for EEMUA Associate companies.
