This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s). For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA, which i

19、s an integral part of this document. For the purposes of this standard, contents gauges are considered a pressure accessory in accordance with the Pressure Equipment Directive 97/23/EC in that they have a function additional to that of containing pressure. However, as they have a volume less than 0,

20、1 l and a maximum allowable pressure (PS) of 25 bar, they are designed and manufactured in accordance with sound engineering practice of a Member State in order to ensure safe use. This document is considered as a supporting European Standard for the Pressure Equipment Directive 97/23/EC. This docum

21、ent has been submitted for reference into the RID and/or in the technical annexes of the ADR. The major changes to this revision include: scope extended to include transportable equipment; gauge graduations and precision included; overfill Protection Device is deleted, now included in EN 13175; test

22、 requirement is included for non-metallic floats; torque test values have been changed; vacuum test and float test have been introduced; Annex C, production testing has been introduced; Annex D, vibration testing has been introduced; Annex E, environmental checklist has been introduced.

BS EN 13799:2012EN 13799:2012 (E) 5 Introduction Protection of the environment is a key political issue in Europe and around the world. It

25、 is described here in its broadest sense. However, the total life cycle aspects of a product on the environment for example is what is meant. This includes expenditure of energy during all phases: mining of raw materials, fabrication, packaging, distribution, use, scrapping, recycling of materials,

26、etc. NOTE Annex E indicates which clauses in this European Standard address environmental issues. Provisions have to be restricted to a general guidance. Limit values are specified in national laws. It is recommended that companies using this standard develop an environmental management policy. For

27、guidance see ISO 14000 series. BS EN 13799:2012EN 13799:2012 (E) 6 1 Scope This European Standard specifies minimum requirements for design and testing of contents gauges, which are directly connected to LPG transportable pressure vessels, LPG drums, LPG cylinders and static LPG pressure vessels abo
