LPG equipment and accessories - Welded steel pressure vessels for LPG road tankers - Design and manufacture

This European Standard specifies minimum requirements for materials, design, construction and
workmanship procedures, and tests for welded LPG road tanker pressure vessels and their welded
attachments manufactured from carbon, carbon/manganese and micro alloy steels.
There is no upper size limit as this is determined by the gross vehicle weight limitation.
This European Standard does not cover pressure vessels for pressure vessel containers.
NOTE 1 In the context of this standard the term "road tanker" is understood to mean “fixed tanks” and
“demountable tanks” as defined in ADR.
NOTE 2 The equipment for the pressure vessels and the inspection and testing after assembly is covered by
EN 12252 and EN 14334, respectively.
NOTE 3 The design type of the road tanker is subject to approval by the competent authority, as required by
ADR.
NOTE 4 This standard is intended for LPG only; however for other liquefied gases see EN 14025.

Flüssiggas-Geräte und Ausrüstungsteile - Geschweißte Druckbehälter aus Stahl für Straßentankwagen für Flüssiggas (LPG) - Auslegung und Herstellung

Oprema in pribor za utekočinjeni naftni plin (UNP) - Varjene tlačne posode cestnih cistern iz jekla za UNP - Konstruiranje in proizvodnja (vključno z dopolnilom A2)

Ta evropski standard določa minimalne zahteve za materiale, načrtovanje, konstrukcijo in postopke izvedbe ter preskuse za varjene tlačne posode za utekočinjen naftni plin (LPG) za cestne cisterne in njihove varjene priključke, izdelane iz ogljikovega, ogljikovega/manganovega in mikro legiranega jekla.
Zgornje omejitve velikosti ni, ker je ta določena z omejitvijo bruto teže vozila.
Ta evropski standard se ne uporablja za tlačne posode za zabojnike s tlačno posodo.
OPOMBA 1: V tem standardu izraz »cestna cisterna« pomeni cisterne s pritrjeno posodo in cisterne s snemljivo posodo, kot so opredeljene v ADR.
OPOMBA 2: Za opremo za tlačne posode se uporablja EN 12252, za pregled in preskušanje po montaži pa se uporablja EN 14334.
OPOMBA 3: Tip izvedbe cestne cisterne mora odobriti pristojni organ, kot to zahteva ADR.
OPOMBA 4: Ta standard se uporablja samo za LPG, vendar za druge utekočinjene pline glej EN 14025.

EN 12493:2013+A2:2018 (E) 6 European foreword This document (EN 12493:2013+A2:2018) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 286 “Liquefied petroleum gas 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 or by endorsement, at the latest by December 2018, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by December 2018. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN [and/or CENELEC] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This document includes Amendment 1 approved by CEN on 22 May 2014, Corrigendum 1 issued by CEN on 1 July 2015 and Amendment 2 approved by CEN on 22 January 2018. This document supersedes #EN 12493:2013+A1:2014$. The start and finish of text introduced or altered by amendment is indicated in the text by tags !" and #$. The modifications of the related CEN Corrigendum have been implemented at the appropriate places in the text and are indicated by the tags ˜™. This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association. This European Standard has been submitted for reference into the technical annexes of the ADR #[12]$. NOTE These regulations take precedence over any clause of this European Standard. It is emphasised that RID/ADR/ADN are being revised regularly at intervals of two years which may lead to temporary non-compliances with the clauses of this European Standard. The following main changes have been introduced during the revision of EN 12493:2008+A1:2012: — revision of the shell thickness calculations to avoid any confusion with ADR design pressures; — revision of the hydraulic test pressure to avoid any confusion with ADR hydraulic test pressures and to reduce the maximum tensile stress (at the time of the hydraulic test); — the addition of minimum thickness calculations; — clarification of the surge plate requirements; — references to Annex C (normative) changed to informative. According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the United Kingdom.

EN 12493:2013+A2:2018 (E) 7 Introduction This European Standard calls for the use of substances and procedures that may be injurious to health and/or the environment if adequate precautions are not taken. It refers only to technical suitability: it does not absolve the user from their legal obligations at any stage. #Protection of the environment is a key political issue in Europe and elsewhere, for CEN/TC 286 this is covered in CEN/TS 16765 [7] LPG equipment and accessories — Environmental considerations for CEN/TC 286 standards, and this Technical Specification should be read in conjunction with this standard. This Technical Specification provides guidance on the environmental aspects to be considered regarding equipment and accessories produced for the LPG industry and the following is addressed: a) design; b) manufacture; c) packaging; d) use and operation; e) disposal.$ It is recommended that manufacturers develop an environmental management policy. For guidance, see
EN ISO 14000 series (#see [8], [9] and [10]$). Provisions need to be restricted to a general guidance. Limit values are specified in national laws. It has been assumed in the drafting of this European Standard that the execution of its provisions is entrusted to appropriately qualified and experienced people. All pressures are gauged unless otherwise stated. NOTE This European
