Overview
DIN EN 12542 specifies requirements for the construction and manufacture of static welded steel cylindrical tanks, serially produced for the storage of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) with a volume not greater than 13 m 3 for installation above-ground or assembly underground. The essential technical changes in this edition exist in the widening of the Scope to include requirements for underground tanks, addition of environmental considerations, references to the latest welding standards and the introduction of radioscopy as a permitted alternative to radiographic examination of welds.
