The EN 13530-2:2002 standard addresses crucial aspects of the design, fabrication, inspection, and testing of large transportable vacuum insulated cryogenic vessels exceeding 1,000 liters in volume. The scope of this standard is expansive, focusing on vessels that are permanently or demountably attached to vehicles for road transport, while also offering applicability for other forms of transport as long as specific conditions and regulations are met. This flexibility enhances its usability across various transport sectors, ensuring a broad relevance in the industry. One of the key strengths of this standard lies in its comprehensive approach to ensuring safety and performance in the handling of cryogenic liquids. By detailing requirements for design and fabrication, it fosters a robust framework that manufacturers can rely on to produce vessels that meet stringent safety regulations. The specific mention of inspection and testing requirements ensures that all vessels comply with established safety norms before they are put into use, reducing the risk of accidents during transport. The standard is particularly significant for the transportation of fluids as outlined in prEN 13530-1:2001, providing clear guidelines that help manufacturers and transporters operate within recognized safety parameters. However, it is crucial to note that it specifically excludes vessels intended for toxic fluids, thus maintaining a focused approach on ensuring the safe transport of non-toxic cryogenic liquids. Moreover, the exclusion of general vehicle requirements, such as running gear, brakes, and lighting, emphasizes that this standard is tailored for the cryogenic vessel components rather than the entire transport vehicle. This specialization aids manufacturers in concentrating their efforts on ensuring that the cryogenic vessels themselves meet impeccable safety and performance standards without overlapping into unrelated vehicle specifications. Overall, the EN 13530-2:2002 standard plays a pivotal role in the realm of cryogenic transport, providing a well-structured guideline that reinforces safety while promoting efficiency in handling large transportable vacuum insulated vessels in various transportation scenarios. Its relevance is clear for professionals in the field, as adherence to this standard guarantees compliance with essential safety and operational protocols necessary for the transport of cryogenic liquids.

Die Norm EN 13530-2:2002 ist eine essenzielle europäische Norm, die spezifische Anforderungen an das Design, die Herstellung, die Inspektion und die Prüfung von großen, transportablen, vakuumisolierten kryogenen Behältern mit einem Volumen von mehr als 1.000 Litern festlegt. Diese Behälter können sowohl dauerhaft (feste Tanks) als auch nicht dauerhaft (abnehmbare Tanks) an einem Fahrzeug angebracht sein, was eine flexible Nutzung und Anpassung an verschiedene Transportbedürfnisse ermöglicht. Die Relevanz dieser Norm ist besonders ausgeprägt im Hinblick auf den Transport von kryogenen Flüssigkeiten, die in der Industrie von großer Bedeutung sind. Ein wesentliches Stärkeelement der EN 13530-2:2002 ist die detaillierte Aufschlüsselung der Anforderungen, die sicherstellen, dass alle Aspekte der Konstruktion und Fertigung der kryogenen Behälter gründlich geregelt sind. Diese Norm fördert die Sicherheit und Effizienz im Transport von kryogenen Flüssigkeiten, indem sie klare Richtlinien für die Inspektion und Prüfung bietet, was potenzielle Risiken minimiert. Es wird explizit darauf hingewiesen, dass die Norm nicht für toxische Flüssigkeiten gilt, was die Anwendungssicherheit weiter erhöht und den Fokus auf die Handhabung sicherer Flüssigkeiten legt. Ein weiterer Punkt, der die Bedeutung dieser Norm unterstreicht, ist die Möglichkeit der Nutzung in verschiedenen Transportmodi, sofern die speziellen Vorschriften und Anforderungen eingehalten werden. Obwohl die allgemeinen Fahrzeuganforderungen, wie Fahrwerk, Bremsen und Beleuchtung, nicht Teil dieser Norm sind, wird auf die Notwendigkeit hingewiesen, dass diese gemäß den relevanten Standards und Vorschriften erfüllt werden müssen. Dies fördert eine ganzheitliche Herangehensweise an den sicheren und effizienten Transport von kryogenen Stoffen. Insgesamt betrachtet stellt die EN 13530-2:2002 einen bedeutenden Standard dar, der durch seine klar definierten Anforderungen und Flexibilität im Anwendungsbereich eine wichtige Rolle in der Branche der kryogenen Transporte spielt. Die Norm gewährleistet nicht nur die Sicherheit der Transportvorgänge, sondern unterstützt auch die Einhaltung gesetzlicher Bestimmungen und Industriestandards.

SIST EN 13530-2:2003は、1,000リットルを超える大容量の輸送可能な真空絶縁冷却容器に関する設計、製造、検査、試験の要件を具体的に規定した欧州規格です。この規格は、固定タンクや脱着式タンクのいずれかに取り付けられた容器が、道路輸送用として利用される際の重要な指針を提供します。 この標準の強みは、特に設計及び製造プロセスに焦点を当てている点です。これにより、冷却容器の安全性と性能を確保するための基準が明確になります。また、真空絶縁技術を使用しているため、エネルギー効率の高い輸送が可能で、環境にも配慮された設計が求められています。 さらに、SIST EN 13530-2は、prEN 13530-1:2001で指定された流体に適用され、有毒な流体用に設計された容器には適用されないため、特定の用途に特化した要件が整備されています。この点は、業界のニーズを的確に捉えたものであり、使用する流体の特性に応じた安全管理を図ることに寄与します。 ただし、この規格は一般的な車両要件、例えば走行装置、ブレーキ、照明等には触れていないため、関連する他の規格や法規に従う必要があります。このように、SIST EN 13530-2:2003は、冷却容器の安全設計において核心的な役割を果たしており、運搬に関するあらゆる側面をカバーする重要な規格です。

SIST EN 13530-2:2003 표준은 1,000리터 이상의 대형 운송 가능한 진공 단열 크라이오제닉 용기의 설계, 제작, 검사 및 시험에 대한 요구 사항을 구체적으로 명시하고 있습니다. 이 표준은 고정된 탱크와 탈착이 가능한 탱크 모두에 적용되며, 도로를 통한 운반을 위해 차량에 영구적 또는 비영구적으로 부착된 경우에 해당됩니다. 이 표준의 주요 강점은 대형 용기의 안전하고 효율적인 운송을 보장하는 데 필요한 설계 및 제작 범위를 야기하는 것입니다. 또한, 사용되는 액체의 종류가 prEN 13530-1:2001에 명시된 유체로 제한되어 있다는 점은 이러한 용기의 응용 가능성을 만듭니다. 이는 사용자의 요구를 충족하는 동시에 안전과 법적 규정을 준수할 수 있도록 돕습니다. 또한, EN 13530-2:2002는 일반 차량 요건, 예를 들어, 주행 장비, 브레이크 및 조명 등은 포함하지 않고, 이러한 부분은 관련 표준 및 규정에 따라 별도로 규정된다는 점도 중요합니다. 이는 안전과 기술 기준을 지키면서 각기 다른 운송 수단에 대한 유연성을 제공하는 장점이 있습니다. 결론적으로, SIST EN 13530-2:2003 표준은 대형 진공 단열 크라이오제닉 용기의 설계, 제작, 검사 및 시험에 관한 규정을 통합하여 관련 산업에서 큰 중요성을 지니며, 안전하고 효율적인 운반 체계를 지원합니다. 이 표준은 크라이오제닉 기술이 요구되는 다양한 산업 분야에서 지속적인 발전을 촉진할 수 있는 기반을 제공합니다.
