EN 13918:2003 (E)3ForewordThis document (EN 13918:2003) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 121 "Welding", thesecretariat of which is held by DS.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of an identical text orby endorsement, at the latest by October 2003, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latestby October 2003.Annexes A and B are informative.According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the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.IntroductionEN ISO 2503 deals with pressure regulators for gas cylinders for welding cutting and allied processes. Thesepressure regulators deliver an as constant as possible downstream pressure from a generally variable gas cylinderpressure and the adjusting device acts to increase or reduce the regulated downstream pressure. Gas flow is notcontrolled by the pressure regulator.For some processes, e.g. arc welding with shielding gases, it is also necessary to control the gas flow. To achievethis, a pressure regulator coupled with a flowmeter is used. In this case the integrated flowmeter regulator adjustingdevice acts to increase or decrease the downstream flow. Annex A indicates the operating principles of integratedflowmeter regulators.1 ScopeThis European Standard specifies the requirements and type test methods of integrated flowmeter regulators forwelding, cutting and allied processes.It is applicable to integrated flowmeter regulators which may be equipped with flow control and measuring devicesof gas flows on gas cylinders normally used for compressed gases up to 300 bar1) (30 MPa) and carbon dioxide(CO2).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. Fordated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this EuropeanStandard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision.
