DIN Standards Committee Pressurized Gas Installations

Overview

This standard specifies the characteristics of outlet connections for gas cylinder valves for compressed breathable air gas cylinders. It states the fundamental requirements for both; the connection and its components and includes basic dimensions. The following connections are covered in this document: - yoke type outlet connection for SCUBA use up to a maximum cylinder working pressure of 232 bar; - threaded type outlet connections up to a maximum cylinder working pressure of 232 bar and 300 bar; and - threaded type outlet connection for SCUBA use up to a maximum cylinder working pressure of 232 bar including adaptor for users to convert into a yoke type outlet. Annex A gives the outlet connection type test procedures. Requirements for cylinder valves (see ISO 10297) are not covered by this International Standard. This document is a combination of Parts 1 to 3 of the series DIN EN ISO 12209 which was published in 2001. Apart from combining the former Parts 1 to 3, the connection dimensions have also been changed and a new Annex A on type testing has been introduced. The committee responsible for this document is NA 016-00-03 AA "Druckgasflaschen und Ausrüstung; Spiegelausschuss zu CEN/TC 23 und ISO/TC 58" ("Transportable gas cylinders and equipment; National mirror committee to CEN/TC 23 and ISO/TC 58") at DIN.
