A PN10 flange has a fixed nominal pressure rating of 10 bar (approximately 145 psi).
Unlike the ASME/ASA system, the PN system uses a single pressure class designation that assumes the maximum pressure is at ambient temperature (around 20°C).
The maximum working pressure for a PN10 flange generally decreases if the temperature rises significantly.

Pressure derates based on material
For common materials:
Steel (Carbon or Stainless): The 10 bar rating is typically maintained across a wide temperature range if the material allows for it.
