Describes minimum requirements concerning material, design, construction and workmanship, procedures and tests at manufacture of refillable transportable welded cylinders made of carbon steel, justified by experimental methods, of water capacities from 0,5 l up to and including 150 l for compressed or liquefied gases and of a test pressure up to 90 bar.

This European Standard specifies minimum requirements concerning material, design, construction and workmanship, procedures and tests at manufacture of refillable transportable welded cylinders made of carbon steel, justified by experimental methods, of water capacities from 0,5 l up to and including 150 l for compressed or liquefied gases and of a test pressure up to 90 bar.

NOTE This European Standard may also be used as a guideline for cylinders less than 0,5 l water capacity.

This European Standard is primarily intended for industrial gases other than LPG but may also be applied for LPG. However, for dedicated LPG cylinders see EN 14140 [5], prepared by CEN/TC 286.
