Overview

This European Standard has been prepared by Technical Committee 234 "Gas Infrastructure" of the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). National concerns of the Federal Republic of Germany were introduced by DIN e. V., the German Institute for Standardization. At DIN e. V., the German Institute for Standardization, the responsible body involved in its preparation was Working Committee NA 032-02-03 AA "Verdichteranlagen" ("Gas compressor stations") at DIN Standards Committee Gas Technology (NAGas). This European Standard covers the specific functional requirements for the design, construction, operation, maintenance and disposal activities for safe and secure gas compressor stations of the gas infrastructure. This standard includes safety-related specifications. This European Standard applies to gas compressor stations with a Maximum Operating Pressure (MOP) over 16 bar and with a total shaft power over 1 MW. The purpose of this European Standard is to ensure the safety of the public and all site personnel, to cover environmental issues and to avoid incidental damage to nearby property. This standard does not apply to existing gas compressor stations in use prior to the publication of this standard. For existing compressor stations, this standard applies only to the parts which are to be replaced, expanded or disposed. It can be used at any time for the operation or maintenance of gas compressor stations. This European Standard is supplemented by German national technical rule DVGW Arbeitsblatt G 497 "Verdichteranlagen" ("Compressor stations"), which gives more detailed information. This standard will be incorporated into the DVGW set of rules.
