- dual low-pressure fusion jointing procedure;

- single high-pressure fusion jointing procedure.

ISO 21307:2017 takes into consideration the materials and components used, the fusion jointing procedure and equipment and the quality assessment of the completed joint. It can be applied in conjunction with appropriate national regulations and standards.
