tubes and pre...view more

This document 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 150 l water capacity. Pressure relief valves and their ancillary equipment, contents gauges and automotive LPG components are outside the scope of this document.
This document does not apply to refineries or other process plants.

This document specifies the endurance test necessary to confirm the ability of hand-operated plastics
valves to withstand prolonged use, with repeated opening and closure. It does not specify the ability of
valves to withstand adverse conditions, in particular those of chemically aggressive fluid media and/or
environments, or excessive fluid velocities and cavitation.
NOTE Concerning the chemical aggression of the materials, a classification table is reported in
ISO/TR 10358[1].
