    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Describes practical criteria for determining valve outlet connections for gas cylinders.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This document establishes practical criteria for determining valve outlet connections for gas cylinders.

    It applies to the selection of gas cylinder valve outlet connections and specifies the dimensions for a number of them.

    This document is not applicable to connections used for cryogenic gas withdrawal or gases for breathing equipment, which are the subjects of other International Standards.

    NOTE Other safeguard provisions like labelling or colour coding are not affected by this document.
