DIN Standards Committee Pressurized Gas Installations

Overview

The purpose of this International Standard is to provide a specification for the design, manufacture, inspection and testing of a seamless aluminium alloy gas cylinder for worldwide usage. The objective is to balance design and economic efficiency against international acceptance and universal utility. This International Standard aims to eliminate the concern about climate, duplicate inspections and restrictions currently existing because of lack of definitive International Standards. This International Standard should not be construed as reflecting on the suitability of the practice of any nation or region. Following publication, this International Standard will be submitted for reference in the UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods - Model Regulations. This International Standard specifies minimum requirements for the material, design, construction and workmanship, manufacturing processes and tests at time of manufacture of refillable seamless aluminium alloy gas cylinders of water capacities up to and including 150 litres for compressed, liquefied and dissolved gases for worldwide use (normally up to +65 °C). The committee responsible for this standard is NA 016-00-03 AA "Druckgasflaschen und Ausrüstung; Spiegelausschuss zu CEN/TC 23 und ISO/TC 58" ("Gas cylinders and equipment; Mirror Committee of CEN/TC 23 and ISO/TC 58") at DIN.
