Overview

This standard gives requirements and corresponding test\assessment methods applicable to leak detection kits, based on volumetric loss from within the tank and/or pipework system. The kits usually comprise: - Measuring Device - Evaluation Device - Alarm Device. Intended use: Leak Detection kits are intended to be used in\with single or double skin underground tanks or single or double skin underground and/or aboveground pipework designed for flammable liquids having a flash point not exceeding 100 °C. This standard differs from DIN EN 13160-5:2004-12 as follows: a) the requirement for a device for simulating a leak has been deleted; b) pressure line leak detection kits have been included. This standard has been prepared under mandate M/131 "Piping, tanks and accessories not in contact with water intended for human consumption" under Regulation (EU) No. 305/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 March 2011 laying down harmonized conditions for the marketing of construction products. The standard has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 393/WG 2 "Leak detecting devices for tanks and pipes" (secretariat: DIN, Germany). The German committee involved in the preparation of the standard was Working Committee NA 104-02-03 AA "Leckanzeigegeräte" ("Leak detection devices") at DIN Standards Committee Tank Installations (NATank).
