Foreword
This document (CEN/TR 14473:2014) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 23 “Transportable
gas cylinders”, the secretariat of which is held by BSI.
This document supersedes CR 14473:2002.
This second edition supersedes the first edition (CR 14473:2002) with the following main technical revisions:
a) changes in the legal background are taken into account by introducing new tables for porous materials
with filling conditions based on a new European standard (EN ISO 3807) for type testing of porous
materials for acetylene cylinders);
b) entries for porous materials that are no longer used or for which the filling conditions could not be verified
were deleted;
c) the report was amended with regard to porous materials which have been newly placed on the market
since the last edition of this report.
For amendments or changes to this report, an application shall be made to the CEN/TC 23 Secretariat with a
copy of the documentation based on which the acetylene cylinders are placed on the market (type approval by
the competent authority or conformity assessment in accordance with Directive 2010/35/EU (TPED)).

Introduction
This report contains data and information about monolithic porous materials for acetylene cylinders.
This report does not contain information about non-monolithic porous materials.
Where there is any conflict between this European Technical Report and any applicable regulation, the
regulation always takes precedence.
In International Standards, weight is equivalent to a force, expressed in Newton. However, in common
parlance the word “weight” continues to be used to mean “mass”, but this practice is deprecated
(ISO 80000-4).
In this European Technical Report the unit bar is used, due to its universal use in the field of technical gases.
It should, however, be noted that bar is not an SI unit, and that the according SI unit for pressure is Pa.
Pressure values given in this European Technical Report are given as gauge pressure (pressure exceeding
atmospheric pressure) unless noted otherwise.

1 Scope
This Technical Report contains information about monolithic porous materials used in individual acetylene
cylinders and in acetylene cylinder bundles. It does not claim to be exhaustive.
2 Source and nature of the data about the listed porous materials
The data contained in the tables in Clauses 4, 5 and 6 are derived from the documentation based on which
the acetylene cylinders were or still are placed on the market (type approval by the competent authority or
conformity assessment in accordance with TPED) and according to which they are operated (in some cases a
type approval with regard to newly manufacturing a porous material has been withdrawn or a TPED-certificate
is no longer valid but the cylinders that were already on the market still may be used).
NOTE The documentation provided was examined carefully before including the according information into this
Report. Nevertheless, there might be discrepancies to the actual approval, e.g. because more recent amendments exist
which were not made available at the time of preparing this Report. In some cases not all information was available in the
documents provided and consequently the according information is missing (for example the maximum top clearance or
the working pressure).
Acetylene cylinders that were reassessed in accordance with TPED may be filled with the filling values
conforming to the reassessment certificate throughout the EU. It should be noted that these values might
deviate from those of prior national approvals which still apply to those cylinders that were not reassessed
according to TPED.
If no reliable documentation could be made available to the working group, no information is included in this
Report. However, this does not necessarily mean that no approval or certification exists.
Clause 4 contains information on porous materials for acetylene cylinders which are placed on the market in
accordance with type tests according to EN ISO 3807. It also contains information on filling conditions for
acetylene cylinder bundles in accordance with EN ISO 13088.
Clause 5 contains information on porous materials used in individual acetylene cylinders that were type
approved based on national regulations and/or standards.
Clause 6 contains information on porous materials used in acetylene cylinder bundles that were approved
based on national regulations and/or standards.
If several years are indicated for the approval or certification they refer to according amendments in addition.
3 Country codes
In this Technical Report countries are identified in accordance with their distinguishing signs for motor vehicles
according to the Vienna Convention on Road Traffic which is also the basis for marking of cylinders according
to the ADR (see Annex A to the ADR, 6.2.2.7) as follows:
A Austria F France L Luxembourg

4 Data for porous materials for individual acetylene cylinders type tested in
accordance with EN ISO 3807
Clause 4 contains information on porous materials for acetylene cylinders which were or still are placed on the
market in accordance with type testing according to EN ISO 3807. It also contains information on filling
conditions for acetylene cylinder bundles in accordance with EN ISO 13088.
The following tables are ordered alphabetically according to the name of the porous material.
Column 1 gives the cylinder water capacities, in l, to which the filling conditions (solvent content, acetylene
content, working pressure) as given in the subsequent columns are applicable.
Column 2 lists the specified solvent content, in kg/l, that the acetylene cylinder shall contain per litre water
capacity in accordance with the type tests according to EN ISO 3807.
Column 3 lists the maximum acetylene content (including saturation acetylene), in kg/l, that the acetylene
cylinder shall contain per litre water capacity in accordance with the type tests according to EN ISO 3807.
Column 4 lists the working pressure of the acetylene cylinder as calculated in accordance with EN ISO 3807.
For bundles it gives the maximum no. of consecutive fillings before the bundle has to be dismantled and
solvent has to be replenished in the individual cylinders.

The data contained in the tables in Clauses 4, 5 and 6 are derived from the documentation based on which

conformity assessment in accordance with TPED) and according to which they are operated (in some cases a
type approval with regard to newly manufacturing a porous material has been withdrawn or a TPED-certificate

5 Data for porous materials for individual acetylene cylinders and that are type
approved based on national regulations
Clause 5 contains information on porous materials for individual acetylene cylinders which were type
approved based on national regulations and/or standards.
The following tables are ordered alphabetically according to the name of the porous material. Within these
tables the countries are ranked alphabetically according to the country codes as given in Clause 3.
Column 4 gives the cylinder water capacities, in l, to which the filling conditions (solvent content, acetylene
content, working pressure) as given in the subsequent columns are applicable.
Column 5 lists the specified solvent content, in kg/l, that the acetylene cylinder shall contain per litre water
capacity according to the national approval.
Column 6 lists the maximum acetylene content (including saturation gas except where mentioned otherwise),
in kg/l, that the acetylene cylinder shall contain per litre water capacity according to the national approval.
Column 7 lists the working pressure of the acetylene cylinder according to the national approval (based on a
settled pressure at 15 °C).
