Rubber and plastics hoses for liquefied petroleum gas - Part 2: Hose assemblies
Gummi- und Kunststoffschläuche für Flüssiggas - Teil 2: Schlauchleitungen
Overview
This standard applies to the requirements, marking and examination of tightly bound hoses (hereinafter referred to as hose assemblies) made from elastomers and plastics, for liquefied petroleum gas according to DIN 15622, Propane, butane and their mixtures, for use in the gas phase and in the pressure categories 0,2 bar, 10 bar and 30 bar. The standard applies to hose assemblies with an operating temperature range from -30 °C to 70 °C. This document does not apply to hose assemblies subjected to particular thermal stress, for example in liquefied petroleum gas operated installations with combustion engines (see DIN 4815-4) and, principally not to welding, cutting and allied processes (see DIN EN 559 in conjunction with DIN EN 1256 and DIN EN 1327).
