This European Standard was approved by CEN on 28 July 2019.
CEN members are bound to comply with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations which stipulate the conditions for giving this
European Standard the status of a national standard without any alteration. Up-to-date lists and bibliographical references
concerning such national standards may be obtained on application to the CEN-CENELEC Management Centre or to any CEN
member.
This European Standard exists in three official versions (English, French, German). A version in any other language made by
translation under the responsibility of a CEN member into its own language and notified to the CEN-CENELEC Management
Centre has the same status as the official versions.

European foreword
This document (EN 16125:2019) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 286 “LPG
Equipment and Accessories”, the secretariat of which is held by NSAI.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an
identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by March 2020, and conflicting national standards shall be
withdrawn at the latest by March 2020.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This document supersedes EN 16125:2015.
The main technical changes include:
— the removal of the environmental annex and associated clauses in favour of a reference to
CEN/TS 16765,
— the removal of Annex E (Manufacturing and type testing of composite pipes) with the intent of
developing a dedicated composite pipe manufacturing standard within CEN/TC 155. At the time of
this document going to formal vote, the proposed project within CEN/TC 155 is under consideration.
At all stages of building and operating pipework systems the use of materials and disposal of waste
material may have an effect on the environment. CEN/TS 16765 [10] sets out environmental
considerations for this document.
According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the
following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia,
Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland,
Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Republic of North
Macedonia, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the United
Kingdom.
Introduction
This document calls for the use of substances and procedures that may be injurious to health and/or the
environment if adequate precautions are not taken. It refers only to technical suitability and does not
absolve the user from legal obligations at any stage.
This document is intended for users who take on the responsibility for the assembly of the pipework on
site.
Protection of the environment is a key political issue in Europe and elsewhere. Protection of the
environment is taken in a very broad sense, as in the total life cycle aspects of, e.g. a product on the
environment, including expenditure of energy and during all phases from mining of raw materials,
fabrication, packaging, distribution, use, scrapping, recycling of materials, etc.
It is recommended that manufacturers develop an environmental management policy. For guidance see
the ISO 14004 [6]. It has been assumed in the drafting of this document that the execution of its provisions
is entrusted to appropriately qualified and experienced people.
All pressures are gauge unless otherwise stated.
NOTE This document uses measurement of material properties, dimensions and pressures. All such
measurements are subject to a degree of uncertainty due to tolerances in measuring equipment, etc. It could be
beneficial to refer to the leaflet “measurement uncertainty leaflet (SP INFO 2000 27 uncertainty.pdf)”[13].
1 Scope
This document specifies the requirements for the design, construction, testing, commissioning, operation
and maintenance of LPG pipework in both the liquid phase and at full vapour pressure.
This document is applicable to LPG pipework having a maximum allowable pressure of less than or equal
to 25 bar.
This document is applicable to new LPG pipework as well as to replacements of, or extensions to, existing
LPG pipework.
This document is not applicable to:
— pipelines (as defined in 2014/68/EU, PED) and their accessories;
— pipework for the propulsion systems of road vehicles or boats; and
— pipework on ships.
