1、 Tentative Interim Amendment NFPA58 Liquefied Petroleum Gas Code 2014 Edition Reference: 5.7.4, 11.4.1.11, 11.4.1.15, and 11.13.2.8 TIA 14-3 (SC 13-10-3/TIA Log #1116) Pursuant to Section 5 of the NFPA Regulations Governing the Development of NFPA Standards, the National Fire Protection Association

2、has issued the following Tentative Interim Amendment to NFPA 58, Liquefied Petroleum Gas Code, 2014 edition. The TIA was processed by the Technical Committee on Liquefied Petroleum Gases, and was issued by the Standards Council on October 22, 2013, with an effective date of November 11, 2013. A Tent

3、ative Interim Amendment is tentative because it has not been processed through the entire standards-making procedures. It is interim because it is effective only between editions of the standard. A TIA automatically becomes a public input of the proponent for the next edition of the standard; as suc

4、h, it then is subject to all of the procedures of the standards-making process. 1. Revise 5.7.4 to read as follows: 5.7.4 Container Valves and Other Appurtenances. 5.7.4.1 Containers of 4000 gal (15.2 m3) water capacity or less shall comply with 5.7.4.1(A) through 5.7.4.1(B). (A) The following conta

(12) Multiple function valves installed on single opening cylinders used in industrial truck service shall meet the following requirements: (a) Cylinders complying with 5.

11、7.2.14 shall have the full internal or flush-type full internal pressure relief valve exchanged with a replacement multiple function valve that incorporates the full internal or flush-type full internal pressure relief valve as described in 5.7.4.1(B)(11) and 5.7.4.1(B)(12). (b) The multiple functio

12、n valve with the full internal or flush-type full internal pressure relief valve shall be permitted to have the means to be replaced without removing the multiple function valve from the cylinder. (c) The multiple function valve shall incorporate an excess-flow valve installed inside the container f

13、or the liquid or vapor withdrawal service valve outlet. (d) The multiple function valve shall incorporate a weak section on the service valve outlet connection. (e) The multiple function valve shall incorporate an excess-flow valve installed inside the container that shall not restrict the flow to t

14、he full internal or flush-type full internal pressure relief valve. (f) The multiple function valve shall be listed. Change the caption of Table 5.7.4.1(D) to read as follows: Table 5.7.4.1(B) Container Connection and Appurtenance Requirements for Containers Used in Other Than Bulk Plants and Indust
