We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Pressure Equipment Directive", and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Manufacturingtalk which will be of interest. Let me be your guide.
 
Start with the news release Pre-engineered systems for all areas of industry from ASCO Power Technologies, which we summarised at the time by saying "Steve Meadows, Senior Marketing Engineer at ASCO Joucomatic, outlines the benefits of pre- engineered systems for all areas of industry". A few weeks before, we featured the news release 3N severe-service union-bonnet series needle valve from Swagelok: "Swagelok has received Transportation Pressure Equipment Directive (TPED) approval (Directive 99/36/EC) for its 3N severe-service union-bonnet series needle valve".
 
In February 2006, we covered the news from Asco Joucomatic Numatics concerning its Power Pulse dust collection valves - take a look at Valves improve dust collector efficiency which says: "A redesigned range of dust collection valves offer faster opening and closing times with less noise for improved dust collection and also a substantial reduction in overall valve size".
 
Take a look also at the news release from ABB Automation Tech (Instrumentation + Automation), Pressure transmitter resists harsh environments, as well as Does PED pressurised plant need CE mark? from TUV Rheinland UK, and Help offered over ASME/PED confusion from TUV Rheinland UK.
