This document specifies the design, type testing, marking and manufacturing tests and examinations requirements for self-closing cylinder valves intended to be fitted to refillable transportable gas cylinders which convey compressed, liquefied or dissolved gases.
NOTE1 The main applications for such self-closing cylinder valves are in the calibration gas and beverage industries.
This document covers the function of a self-closing cylinder valve as a closure.
NOTE2 Requirements for standard cylinder valves are given in ISO10297 . Requirements for quick-release cylinder valves are given in ISO17871 .
This document is not applicable to self-closing cylinder valves for cryogenic equipment, for portable fire extinguishers, or for liquefied petroleum gas (LPG).
NOTE3 Requirements for valves for cryogenic vessels are specified in ISO21011 and at a regional level, for example, in EN1626 . Requirements for valves for portable fire extinguishers at a regional level are specified, for example, in EN3series . Requirements for self-closing LPG cylinder valves are specified in ISO14245 .
NOTE4 Additional requirements for pressure-relief devices might be specified in international/regional regulations/standards.
