    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Defines minimum requirements for the design, testing and production testing of valves, including appropriate fittings, which are connected to mobile or static LPG pressure vessels above 150 l water capacity.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This European Standard specifies minimum requirements for the design, testing and production testing of valves, including appropriate fittings, which are connected to mobile or static LPG pressure vessels above 150l water capacity. Pressure relief valves and their ancillary equipment, contents gauges and automotive LPG components are outside the scope of this European Standard.

    This European Standard does not apply to refineries or other process plants.
