Introduction
The purpose of this part of ISO 11119 is to provide a specification for the design, manufacture,
inspection, and testing of a cylinder for worldwide usage. The objective is to balance design and
economic efficiency against international acceptance and universal utility.
This part of ISO 11119 aims to eliminate the concern about climate, duplicate inspection, and restrictions
currently existing because of a lack of definitive International Standards and is not to be construed as
reflecting on the suitability of the practice of any nation or region.
It is possible that some procedures and tests will require precautions to be taken for the health and/or
safety of the operator(s). Safety, health, and environmental concerns are not addressed and is to be
addressed by those who wish to implement this International Standard.
This part of ISO 11119 is intended to be used under a variety of national and international regulatory
regimes. Where there is any conflict between this part of ISO 11119 and any applicable regulation, the
regulation always takes precedence.
This part of ISO 11119 has been written so that it is suitable to be referenced in the UN Model
[1]
Regulations.
Annexes A and B of this part of ISO 11119 are for information only.

7 Design and manufacture
7.1 General
7.1.1 A type 3 fully wrapped composite gas cylinder with load-sharing welded liner shall comprise of
the following:
a) an internal metal liner which carries part of the longitudinal and circumferential load. For
cylinders with test pressure above 60 bar, the maximum permissible load share by the liner shall
be 30 %, which results in a maximum liner burst pressure of 30 % of minimum burst pressure of
the finished cylinder;
b) a composite overwrap formed by layers of continuous fibres in a matrix;
c) an optional external protection system.
There shall be no adverse reaction or interaction (e.g. epoxy coating with epoxy matrix) between the
liner and the reinforcing fibre by the application of a suitable protective coating to the liner prior to the
wrapping process.
Cylinders shall be designed with one or two openings along the central axis only. Threads shall
extend completely through the neck or have sufficient threads to allow full engagement of the valve.
Construction and workmanship requirements shall be in accordance with those in the standards listed
in Table 1. If the cylinder includes permanently attached components (e.g. neck rings), they shall be
considered as an integral part of the cylinder and form part of the qualified design.
NOTE Examples of certificates are shown in Annexes A and B.
7.1.2 Cylinders with a test pressure less than 60 bar shall have a non-limited design life
7.2 Design submission
7.2.1 The design submission for each new design of cylinder shall include a detailed drawing, along
with documentation of the design including manufacturing and inspection particulars as specified in
7.2.2, 7.2.3, and 7.2.4.
7.2.2 Documentation for the liner shall include (but not be limited to) the following:
a) the material, including limits of chemical analysis;
b) the dimensions, minimum wall thickness, straightness, and out-of-roundness with tolerances;
c) the process and specification of manufacture;
d) the weld profile including the manufacturing procedure, dimensions and tolerances, and the
maximum limits for excess weld metal as specified in 7.3.1 a);
e) the heat treatment, temperatures, duration, and tolerances, if applicable;
f) the inspection procedures (in addition to those specified on the referred liner standard in
accordance with Table 1);
g) the material properties including minimum mechanical properties and hardness ranges, where
applicable;
h) the calculated proof pressure of the liner for liner integrity test, P (in accordance with 8.5.4);

ISO/DIS 11119-4
Introduction
The purpose of this part of ISO 11119 is to provide a specification for the design, manufacture, inspection and
testing of a cylinder for world-wide usage. The objective is to balance design and economic efficiency against
international acceptance and universal utility.
ISO 11119 aims to eliminate the concern about climate, duplicate inspection and restrictions currently existing
because of lack of definitive International Standards and is not to be construed as reflecting on the suitability
of the practice of any nation or region.
Some procedures and tests may require that precautions be taken for the health and/or safety of operator(s).
Safety, health and environmental concerns are not addressed and should be addressed by those who wish to
implement this standard.
ISO 11119-4 is intended to be used under a variety of national regulatory regimes but has been written so that
it is suitable for use with the conformity assessment system of the UN Model Regulations for the
Transportation of Dangerous Goods. Attention is drawn to requirements in specified relevant national
regulations of the country (countries) where the cylinders are intended to be used that might override the
requirements given in this International Standard
Annexes A and B of this part of ISO 11119 are for information only.
Annex C of this part of ISO 11119 is normative.

DRAFT INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO/DIS 11119-4
Gas cylinders – Refillable composite gas cylinders and tubes —
Design, construction and testing — Part 4: Fully wrapped fibre
reinforced composite gas cylinders and tubes up to 450L with
load-sharing welded metallic liners
1. Scope
This part of ISO 11119 specifies requirements for composite gas cylinders and tubes with load sharing welded
liners between 0.5 l and 450 l water capacity and a maximum test pressure of 450 bar, for the storage and
conveyance of compressed or liquefied gases.
The cylinders are constructed in the form of a welded stainless steel liner or welded ferritic steel liner or
welded aluminum alloy liner and- over-wrapped with carbon fibre or aramid fibre or glass fibre (or a mixture
thereof) in a matrix to provide longitudinal and circumferential reinforcement.
The cylinders and tubes in this standard are Type 3 Fully Wrapped Cylinders or Tubes with a load sharing metal
liner and composite reinforcement on both the cylindrical portion and the dome ends.
Cylinders produced in accordance with the standard have a minimum design life of 15 years. Cylinders with
test pressure up to 60 bar have an unlimited design life.
This part of ISO 11119 does not address the design, fitting and performance of removable protective sleeves.
This part of ISO 11119 does not apply to cylinders with seamless liners. For seamless liners ISO11119-2
applies
NOTE ISO 11623 covers periodic inspection and re-testing of composite cylinders.
