Overview

EN 13110:2012/prA1 is a CEN draft amendment to the European standard for transportable refillable welded aluminium cylinders for LPG. It specifies minimum requirements for material, design, construction, workmanship, testing and examination during manufacture of welded aluminium liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) cylinders with a water capacity from 0.5 litres up to and including 150 litres, intended for use at ambient temperature. The prA1 amendment updates normative references, refines definitions and acceptance criteria, and clarifies testing and inspection requirements.

Key Topics

• Scope and definition: Clarifies that covered pressure receptacles are transportable refillable welded aluminium cylinders with water capacities ≤ 150 L.
• Material and construction: Minimum requirements for aluminium materials and welded construction methods to ensure safe service for LPG contents.
• Design requirements: Rules governing cylinder geometry, wall thickness and features that affect mechanical integrity and compatibility with valve and service fittings.
• Workmanship and manufacturing controls: Requirements for welding personnel qualification and manufacturing quality control to ensure consistent cylinder performance.
• Testing and examination:
  • Destructive and mechanical tests (burst and mechanical tests) for validation of cylinder strength.
  • Non‑destructive testing (NDT) and radiographic testing requirements, with updated references to ISO-based NDT standards for image quality and radiography.
  • Fracture and corrosion acceptance criteria: Amendment adds detailed criteria for fracture appearance and stress‑corrosion assessment (ring test).
• Documentation and conformity: Manufacturer responsibilities for records, test reports and traceability during production.

Applications

• Cylinder manufacturers designing and producing transportable refillable welded aluminium LPG cylinders.
• Quality, inspection and testing laboratories performing NDT, burst and mechanical tests for LPG cylinders.
• Regulatory bodies and conformity assessment organizations assessing compliance with European manufacturing standards.
• Design and engineering teams specifying LPG cylinders for supply chains, refill stations and industrial or consumer applications.
• Maintenance and refurbishment services assessing cylinder fitness for continued service.

Related Standards

EN 13110:2012/prA1 updates and cross‑references multiple ISO/CEN standards used for testing and personnel qualification, for example:

• EN ISO 17636‑1 / EN ISO 17636‑2 (radiographic testing of welds)
• EN ISO 19232‑1 / EN ISO 19232‑2 (radiograph image quality)
• EN ISO 17639 (macroscopic/microscopic examination of welds)
• EN ISO 14732 (welding personnel qualification)
• EN ISO 11114‑1 (compatibility of cylinder and valve materials)
• CEN/TS 16765 (environmental considerations for LPG standards)
• Standards on aluminium composition (e.g., EN 573‑3)

This standard is essential for anyone involved in the design, manufacture, inspection or regulation of LPG cylinders and supports safe, compliant, and traceable aluminium cylinder production across Europe.
