Petrol filling stations - Part 4: Safety requirements for construction and performance of swivels for use on metering pumps and dispensers

This document specifies safety requirements for the construction and performance of swivels to be fitted to delivery hose assemblies on metering pumps and dispensers installed at filling stations and used to dispense liquid fuels into the tanks of motor vehicles, boats and light aircraft and into portable containers at flow rates up to 200 l×min-1. It pays particular attention to electrical, mechanical and hydraulic characteristics of swivels.
This document applies mainly to hazards related to the ignition of liquid fuels being dispensed or their vapour. This document also addresses electrical and mechanical hazards of swivels.
This document is not applicable to swivels for the dispensing of any compressed gas.

Stations-service - Partie 4 : Exigences de sécurité relatives à la construction et aux performances des raccords tournants utilisés sur les distributeurs de carburants

Le présent document spécifie les exigences de sécurité relatives à la construction et aux performances des raccords tournants destinés à être montés sur les flexibles des ensembles de mesurage et de distribution installés dans les stations-service et utilisés pour distribuer des carburants liquides dans des réservoirs de véhicules à moteur, de bateaux, d'avions légers et dans des réservoirs portables, à des débits n'excédant pas 200 l×min-1. Il accorde une attention particulière aux caractéristiques électriques, mécaniques et hydrauliques des raccords tournants.
Le présent document traite principalement des phénomènes dangereux liés à l'inflammation des carburants liquides distribués ou de leur vapeur. Le présent document s'intéresse également aux dangers électriques et mécaniques des raccords tournants.
Le présent document ne s'applique pas aux raccords tournants destinés à la distribution de gaz comprimés.

Testing.9 Annex ZA (informative)
Clauses of this European Standard addressing essential requirements or other provisions of EU Directives.11
Inside the vapour path the requirements for equipment group II, Category 1 as defined in EN 13463-1 shall apply. 5 Construction 5.1 General All electrical and non-electrical equipment and components, intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres, shall be designed and constructed according to good engineering practice and in conformity with the required categories for group II equipment to ensure avoidance of any ignition source. To classify the Category of the equipment it shall be subjected to an ignition hazard assessment in accordance with 5.2 of EN 13463-1:2001. Materials used in the construction shall be chemically and dimensionally stable under known service conditions. Materials likely to come into contact with fuels in both liquid and vapour phases shall be resistant to attack by these fuels. Conformity shall be demonstrated by manufacturers' declaration and by the tests detailed in Annex A. Light alloys when used shall conform to the requirements of Clause 8 of EN 13463–1:2001. If other specifications for explosion protected equipment impose more stringent requirements then the more stringent requirement shall apply.
All components shall be of corrosion resistant material or shall be provided with a corrosion resistant protective coating.
Outside surfaces likely to be handled shall be free of sharp edges. If protective covers are fitted they shall be constructed such that they allow ventilation and evaporation of fuel even if some shrinkage occurs. They shall not affect the performance of the swivels. The sealing surfaces of the connection threads shall be designed such that they are suitable for use with an enclosed O-ring or flat gasket. 5.2 Connection threads Connection threads shall be one of the following styles: SIST EN 13617-4:2005

Minimum thread lengthb mm ¾” 12,511,0 1” 15,514,0 1 ¼” 15,517,5 1 ½” 15,5 18,0 a The thread depth, measured from the outer fore-part to the metallic inner sealing face. b The stated minimum length only applies if the female thread of the connection fitting includes an inner flat gasket. When no inner flat gasket is used the minimum thread length depends on the tightness requirements of the threaded connection.
Style 2: Swivels with a vapour recovery path shall use M 34 x 1,5 male outlet threads according to ISO 261 and ISO 965-2. The total thread length shall be maximum 15,0 mm. The inlet end shall be machined to a diameter of (35,0 ± 0,05) mm for a length (6,0 ± 0,1) mm. 5.3 Safe breaks If a swivel has an integral safe break it shall fulfil the requirements of EN 13617–2. 6 Physical properties The physical properties of the swivel shall conform to the requirements given in Table 2 when tested by the methods indicated. SIST EN 13617-4:2005

One swivel for type test shall be tested according to A.3 followed by functional requirements under Clause 7. Four swivels for type test shall be pre-conditioned according to A.2. The drop test according to A.6, shall be done immediately after removal from saturated atmosphere and shall be commenced with
