EN 14140:2003 (E)4ForewordThis document EN 14140:2003 has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 286 “Liquefied PetroleumGas 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of an identical text orby endorsement, at the latest by February 2004, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latestby February 2004.This European Standard has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and theEuropean Free Trade Association, and supports the objectives of the framework Directives on Transport ofDangerous Goods.This European Standard has been submitted for reference into the RID and/or in the technical annexes of the ADR.Therefore the standards listed in the normative references and covering basic requirements of the RID/ADR notaddressed within the present standard are normative only when the standards themselves are referred to in theRID and/or in the technical annexes of the ADR.Annex A is normative.This document includes a Bibliography.According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the followingcountries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland,France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal,Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.
EN 14140:2003 (E)5IntroductionThis European Standard calls for the use of substances and procedures that may be injurious to health if adequateprecautions are not taken. It refers only to technical suitability and does not absolve the user from legal obligationsrelating to health and safety at any stage.It has been assumed in the drafting of this European Standard that the execution of its provisions is entrusted toappropriately qualified and experienced people.This standard permits the use of new and higher strength steels and has the potential for cylinders to be thinnerthan the minimum thickness related to diameter, compared with cylinders in accordance with EN 1442. Thesechanges in technology are justified by requiring a series of performance tests, including impact testing, todemonstrate the adequacy of the calculated pressure thickness for service and transport considerations.1 ScopeThis European Standard specifies the minimum requirements for the design, construction and testing duringmanufacture of transportable refillable welded steel Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) cylinders, of water capacityfrom 0,5 l up to and including 150 l, exposed to ambient temperatures. It allows alternative design and constructionmethods to those required in EN 1442.This European Standard applies only to cylinders with a circular cross-section.All pressures are gauge unless otherwise stated.2 Normative referencesThis European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. Thesenormative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text, and the publications are listed hereafter.
