4 General construction requirements
4.1 General
This International Standard was developed to use in the examination, testing, and certification of newly
produced liquefied natural gas (LNG) vehicle refuelling nozzles and receptacles and, as such, applies
only to the nozzles and receptacles used in LNG refuelling systems and not to the system itself.
A nozzle certified to this International Standard will be functionally compatible from a safety and
performance perspective with all listed receptacles of compatible profile and system pressure. Similarly,
a certified receptacle will be functionally compatible from a safety and performance perspective with
all the listed nozzles of compatible profile and system pressure.
As there may eventually be many different kinds of nozzles and receptacles available from a variety of
manufacturers which, for safety reasons, must all be compatible with one another, this International
Standard specifies a receptacle profile. The nozzle probe shall comply with the receptacle profile. This
standard profile incorporates the design specification (mating dimensions, geometry and tolerances,
and material requirements) which can be considered in the certification of a submitted nozzle or
receptacle. This International Standard refers only to one working pressure and one application.
The construction and performance of nozzles and receptacles are based on the observation that three
main parameters affect user safety and system compatibility, namely the following:
a) working pressure;
All nozzles and receptacles are designed to have a working pressure of 3,4 MPa.
b) design cycle life;
Frequency of use is the second parameter to be considered. Since frequency of use will differ with
the nozzle/receptacle application (i.e. public sector, fleet employee, and residential), all receptacles
will be tested at 10 000 connect/disconnect cycles for compliance with this International
Standard (one fill per day for 27 years). In addition, all nozzles will be tested to a durability test of
20 000 cycles.
c) training.
Operator training required is in accordance with national requirements.
4.2 LNG refuelling nozzles
LNG fuelling nozzles, hereafter referred to as LNG nozzles, and receptacles, hereinafter both also
referred to as devices, manufactured in accordance with this International Standard shall be designed
in accordance with reasonable concepts of safety, durability, and maintainability.
4.3 LNG nozzles and receptacles
LNG nozzles and receptacles shall be
— designed to minimize the possibility of incorrect assembly,
— designed to be secure against displacement, distortion, warping, or other damage,
— constructed to maintain operational integrity under normal and reasonable conditions of handling
and usage, and
3
— designed with a vapour spillage space less than 25 cm .

4 General construction requirements
4.1 General
This International Standard was developed to use in the examination, testing, and certification of newly
produced liquefied natural gas (LNG) vehicle refuelling nozzles and receptacles and, as such, applies
only to the nozzles and receptacles used in LNG refuelling systems and not to the system itself.
A nozzle certified to this International Standard will be functionally compatible from a safety and
performance perspective with all listed receptacles of compatible profile and system pressure. Similarly,
a certified receptacle will be functionally compatible from a safety and performance perspective with
all the listed nozzles of compatible profile and system pressure.
As there may eventually be many different kinds of nozzles and receptacles available from a variety of
manufacturers which, for safety reasons, must all be compatible with one another, this International
Standard specifies a receptacle profile. The nozzle probe shall comply with the receptacle profile. This
standard profile incorporates the design specification (mating dimensions, geometry and tolerances,
and material requirements) which can be considered in the certification of a submitted nozzle or
receptacle. This International Standard refers only to one working pressure and one application.
The construction and performance of nozzles and receptacles are based on the observation that three
main parameters affect user safety and system compatibility, namely the following:
a) working pressure;
All nozzles and receptacles are designed to have a working pressure of 3,4 MPa.
b) design cycle life;
Frequency of use is the second parameter to be considered. Since frequency of use will differ with
the nozzle/receptacle application (i.e. public sector, fleet employee, and residential), all receptacles
will be tested at 10 000 connect/disconnect cycles for compliance with this International
Standard (one fill per day for 27 years). In addition, all nozzles will be tested to a durability test of
20 000 cycles.
c) training.
Operator training required is in accordance with national requirements.
4.2 LNG refuelling nozzles
LNG fuelling nozzles, hereafter referred to as LNG nozzles, and receptacles, hereinafter both also
referred to as devices, manufactured in accordance with this International Standard shall be designed
in accordance with reasonable concepts of safety, durability, and maintainability.
4.3 LNG nozzles and receptacles
LNG nozzles and receptacles shall be
— designed to minimize the possibility of incorrect assembly,
— designed to be secure against displacement, distortion, warping, or other damage,
— constructed to maintain operational integrity under normal and reasonable conditions of handling
and usage, and
3
— designed with a vapour spillage space less than 25 cm .

4 General construction requirements
4.1 General
This International Standard was developed to use in the examination, testing, and certification of newly
produced liquefied natural gas (LNG) vehicle refuelling nozzles and receptacles and, as such, applies
only to the nozzles and receptacles used in LNG refuelling systems and not to the system itself.
A nozzle certified to this International Standard will be functionally compatible from a safety and
performance perspective with all listed receptacles of compatible profile and system pressure. Similarly,
a certified receptacle will be functionally compatible from a safety and performance perspective with
all the listed nozzles of compatible profile and system pressure.
As there may eventually be many different kinds of nozzles and receptacles available from a variety of
manufacturers which, for safety reasons, must all be compatible with one another, this International
Standard specifies a receptacle profile. The nozzle probe shall comply with the receptacle profile. This
standard profile incorporates the design specification (mating dimensions, geometry and tolerances,
and material requirements) which can be considered in the certification of a submitted nozzle or
receptacle. This International Standard refers only to one working pressure and one application.
The construction and performance of nozzles and receptacles are based on the observation that three
main parameters affect user safety and system compatibility, namely the following:
a) working pressure;
All nozzles and receptacles are designed to have a working pressure of 3,4 MPa.
b) design cycle life;
Frequency of use is the second parameter to be considered. Since frequency of use will differ with
the nozzle/receptacle application (i.e. public sector, fleet employee, and residential), all receptacles
will be tested at 10 000 connect/disconnect cycles for compliance with this International
Standard (one fill per day for 27 years). In addition, all nozzles will be tested to a durability test of
20 000 cycles.
c) training.
Operator training required is in accordance with national requirements.
4.2 LNG refuelling nozzles
LNG fuelling nozzles, hereafter referred to as LNG nozzles, and receptacles, hereinafter both also
referred to as devices, manufactured in accordance with this International Standard shall be designed
in accordance with reasonable concepts of safety, durability, and maintainability.
4.3 LNG nozzles and receptacles
LNG nozzles and receptacles shall be
— designed to minimize the possibility of incorrect assembly,
— designed to be secure against displacement, distortion, warping, or other damage,
— constructed to maintain operational integrity under normal and reasonable conditions of handling
and usage, and
3
— designed with a vapour spillage space less than 25 cm .
