Metallic industrial piping - Part 8: Additional requirements for aluminium and aluminium alloy piping; German version EN 13480-8:2012
Metallische industrielle Rohrleitungen - Teil 8: Zusatzanforderungen an Rohrleitungen aus Aluminium und Aluminiumlegierungen; Deutsche Fassung EN 13480-8:2012
Overview
This part of the European Standard specifies requirements for industrial piping systems made of aluminium and aluminium alloys in addition to the general requirements for industrial piping according to the series of standards EN 13480:2012 and CEN/TR 13480-7:2002. In principle the requirements that apply to piping of aluminium and its alloys also apply to piping of other materials, for example steel. However, because aluminium (and aluminium alloy) properties differ from steel properties, it was necessary to specify the relevant requirements and test procedures regarding material, design, and manufacturing (forming, welding, etcetera) to take account of the ways in which aluminium differs from steel. This document (EN 13480-8:2012) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 267 "Industrial piping and pipelines", the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR (France). The responsible German committee is Working Committee NA 082-00-17 AA "Industrielle Rohrleitungen und Rohrfernleitungen" ("Industrial piping and pipelines") at the Piping and Boiler Plant Standards Committee (NARD).
