Max angle to commence an approach (Europe)

I have found in PANS-OPS that the maximum angle of the initial approach track to the IF is 90 degrees for a precision approach and 120 degrees for a non precision approach. However I am struggling to find the maximum angle of intercept to the initial approach track which would allow the aircraft to commence an approach which does not feature a reversal procedure and is based on VOR/DME fixes. Is this also 90 degrees? Can anyone shed some light on this? Thank you.
