Overview

This European Standard specifies the characteristics of four types of oil suction and discharge hose assemblies used for the conveyance of petroleum, including crude oils and other liquid petroleum products containing a maximum aromatics content of 50 % (v/v). It is not suitable for liquefied petroleum gas and natural gas. Hose assemblies to this European Standard can be used in the temperature range -20 °C to 82 °C. The hoses specified are in the size range of nominal bore 50 to 500 and may be smooth bore, rough bore or armoured rough bore. Hoses for use with petroleum products having an aromatic content greater than 50 % (v/v) are outside the scope of this document but the requirements may be used as a basis for such hoses on request to the manufacturer. This European Standard has been prepared by CEN/TC 218/WG 1 "Rubber and plastics hoses and hose assemblies for industrial, chemical and petrochemical applications" (secretariat: Germany). As the national mirror committee Working Committee NA 104-02-01 AA "Schlauchleitungen" ("Hose assemblies") at NATank is responsible.
