M/TDG - Transport of Dangerous goods

This European Standard specifies the rules of design, type testing, fabrication and inspection control of portable fire
extinguishers manufactured with metallic bodies as far as pressure risk is concerned.
This part applies to portable fire extinguishers of which the maximum allowable pressure PS is lower than or equal to 30
bar and containing non-explosive, non-flammable, non-toxic and non-oxidising fluids.
This European Standard also applies to the metallic gas cartridge of a volume less than 0,12 l (see Annex E) and gives
guidance for sound engineering practice for metallic gas cartridges equal to or greater than 0,12 l and less than 0,5 l, see
Annex F.
This European Standard does not apply to carbon dioxide fire extinguishers.
NOTE Annex A gives the classification of the different parts forming the portable fire extinguisher.

This document specifies, as far as the pressure risk is concerned, the rules of design, type testing, fabrication and inspection control of portable fire extinguishers with a metallic body which comply with the requirements of EN 3-7:2004+A1:2007.
This part of EN 3 applies to portable fire extinguishers of which the maximum allowable pressure PS is lower than or equal to 30 bar and containing non-explosive, non-flammable, non-toxic and non-oxidising fluids.
This document also applies to the marking of metallic propellant gas cartridges (see Annex E).
This document does not apply to carbon dioxide fire extinguishers.

This document specifies minimum requirements for the design, testing and production testing of valves, including appropriate fittings, which are connected to mobile or static LPG pressure vessels above 150 l water capacity. Pressure relief valves and their ancillary equipment, contents gauges and automotive LPG components are outside the scope of this document.
This document does not apply to refineries or other process plants.

This standard specifies the diameter, length, wall thickness and shoulder geometry of cylindrical plastic flexible tubes.
It is applicable to tubes used for packing pharmaceutical, cosmetic, hygiene, food and other domestic and industrial products.

This European Standard specifies minimum requirements for material, design, construction and workmanship, testing and examination during the manufacture of transportable refillable welded aluminium liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) cylinders, having a water capacity from 0,5 litres up to and including 150 litres, exposed to ambient temperature.

This document specifies design, type testing, marking and manufacturing test and examination
requirements for ball valves used as:
a) closures of refillable transportable gas cylinders, pressure drums and tubes;
b) main valves for cylinder bundles;
c) valves for cargo transport units (e.g. trailers, battery vehicles and MEGCs);
which convey compressed gases, liquefied gases and dissolved gases.
NOTE 1 In the course of the document, the term "valve" is used with the meaning of "ball valve".
This document does not apply to:
•   oxidizing gases as defined in ISO 10156,
•   toxic gases (i.e. gases listed in ISO 10298 having an LC50 value ≤ 5 000 ppm) and
•   acetylene for single gas cylinders, pressure drums and tubes.
NOTE 2 The reason for the exclusion of oxidizing gases is that the use of ball valves as closures of high
pressure cylinders for oxidizing gases is known to lead to specific ignition hazards that cannot reasonably be mitigated through the ball valve design or type testing. Safety hazards concern both the ball valve itself and any downstream equipment.
This International document does not apply to ball valves for liquefied petroleum gas (LPG),
cryogenic equipment, portable fire extinguishers and cylinders for breathing apparatus.
NOTE 3 Requirements for valves for cryogenic vessels are specified in ISO 21011 and at a regional level, e.g. in EN 1626. Requirements for valves for portable fire extinguishers at a regional level are specified e.g. in EN 3 series.
NOTE 4 Certain specific requirements for valves for breathing apparatus in addition to those that are
given in this document are specified at a regional level, e.g. in EN 144 series. Certain specific requirements for quick-release valves for fixed fire-fighting systems in addition to those that are given in this document are specified in ISO 16003 and at a regional level e.g. in EN 12094–4.

The requirements for pressure relief valve accessories such as isolating devices, changeover manifolds and vent pipes are specified in EN 14071.
EN 14570 identifies the requirements for the pressure relief valve capacities for static pressure vessels.
EN 12252 identifies the requirements for the pressure relief valve capacities for road tankers.
Valves designed in accordance with this standard are specifically for use in LPG applications. Valves manufactured in accordance with EN ISO 4126 1 may also be used in certain LPG applications.
Terms used with LPG pressure relief valves are described graphically in Annex A.

This European Standard specifies the requirements for inspection and maintenance of LPG cylinder valves, either manually operated or self-closing, for reuse. It applies when the valve is either inspected or refurbished at the time of periodic inspection of the cylinder.
This European Standard may also be applied at any other time, for example, when maintenance of the valve is necessary.

This European Standard specifies equipment and accessories for road tankers used for the transport of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) and identifies the equipment that is considered necessary to ensure that filling, transportation and discharge operations can be carried out safely. It specifies the requirements for the assembly of the accessories and the vehicle LPG equipment to the road tanker. This European Standard also identifies additional equipment and accessories that can be used on road tankers carrying LPG.
This European Standard does not preclude the use of alternative designs, materials and equipment testing which provide the same or a higher level of safety. ADR [9] requires that such alternative technical codes be recognised by the competent authority, provided that the minimum requirements of section 6.8.2 of ADR [9] are complied with.
This European Standard does not apply to “tank-containers” or “battery-vehicles” used for the transport of LPG.

This document specifies the design, testing and inspection requirements for pressure relief valve isolating devices, valve manifolds, vent pipes and system assemblies which are, where necessary, used with pressure relief valves for use in static pressure vessels for Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) service.
