Scope

This European Standard specifies the requirements for product discharge and air inlet valves for use on transportable tanks with a minimum working pressure greater than 50 kPa for the transport of dangerous goods by road and rail.

NOTE 1 The term 'valve' includes ball valves as well as butterfly valves and similar closure devices.

It is applicable to metallic equipment for use on tanks with gravity and/or pressure filling and discharge for liquid chemicals and liquefied gases. It includes carbon dioxide while excluding refrigerated liquefied gases.

NOTE 2 The standard is also applicable to liquefied gases including LPG, however, for a dedicated LPG standard see EN 13175 [3].
