It refers only to technical suitability and does not absolve the user from legal obligations relating to health and safety at any st
18、age. 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. BS EN 14894:2013EN 14894:2013 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies stamp marking requirements for transportable refillable
19、 LPG cylinders and metallic drums including: Steel LPG cylinders designed and manufactured in accordance with EN 1442, EN 14140, EN 12807 or an equivalent standard or technical code recognised by the Competent Authority. LPG metallic drums designed and manufactured in accordance with EN 14893 or an
20、equivalent standard or technical code recognised by the Competent Authority. Welded aluminium LPG cylinders designed and manufactured in accordance with EN 13110 or an equivalent standard or technical code recognised by the Competent Authority. LPG composite cylinders designed and manufactured in ac
21、cordance with EN 14427 or an equivalent standard or technical code recognised by the Competent Authority. NOTE 1 All these types of receptacles are referred to throughout this standard as “cylinders”. This European Standard does not specify any requirements for product, hazard or safety-phrase label
22、ling of packaging which may be required to meet ADR or other legislative requirements. NOTE 2 The marking of cylinders is regulated by RID/ADR which take precedence over any clause in this European Standard. The European Directive on Transportable Pressure Equipment 2010/35/EU 9 includes additional
23、marking requirements ( -marking). 2 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 2.1 liquefied petroleum gas LPG low pressure liquefied gas composed of one or more light hydrocarbons which are assigned to UN 1011, UN 1075, UN 1965, UN 1969 or UN
24、 1978 only and which consists mainly of propane, propene, butane, butane isomers, butene with traces of other hydrocarbon gases 2.2 stamp marking permanent or durable markings affixed to the cylinder 2.3 competent authority authority designated as such in each country in accordance with national reg

27、st of manufacturing, operational and certification stamp marks and are listed in Clause 5, Clause 6, Clause 7 and Clause 8. The layout of the marks is covered by 4.3. Additional markings may be applied if required by other regulations or technical standards, or when required by the cylinder owner; p
28、rovided the layout does not cause any confusion in their interpretation and the clarity of the other mandatory markings is not affected. 4.1.2 Low stress stamp marking methods shall be utilised. 4.1.3 Stamp markings shall be applied to low stress areas. 4.1.4 Stamp marking shall be in accordance wit
29、h the requirements of EN 14894 and any requirements in the standard to which cylinder or drum is being manufactured. The marking information may be supplemented and/or duplicated by electronic means or other types of coding where required by the operator. NOTE 1 The TPED includes additional marking
30、requirements (-marking). NOTE 2 The requirements of RID/ADR override any conflicting requirements of this European Standard; this may lead to a temporary noncompliance with EN 14894. 4.2 Workmanship 4.2.1 All stamp markings shall be affixed clearly, legibly and durably on the cylinder and shall rema
31、in legible under all foreseeable operating and ageing conditions. Markings required to be “permanent” shall be such that they can only be removed with the use of special tools and may be done, for example by hard metal stamping, engraving, casting, embossing, encapsulation or other similar methods.
32、Markings required to be “durable” shall be such that they remain visible for the relevant period of time and may be done, for example by printing, external labelling, stencilling, use of valve hand-wheel insert or other similar methods. Clause 5, Clause 6, Clause 7 and Clause 8 indicate which markin
33、gs shall be “permanent (P)“ and which may be “durable (D)“. Markings which are permitted to be durable may be permanently applied if so desired. 4.2.2 For metallic cylinders, the markings shall be located on the shoulder, top end or neck of the cylinder or on a permanently affixed component, e.g. sh
34、roud, handle(s), foot ring, welded nameplate, etc. 4.2.3 If markings are applied after completion of manufacture or following periodic inspection, by stamping or engraving onto the pressure parts of the cylinder, it shall be demonstrated by fatigue and burst tests in accordance with the original des
35、ign standard or equivalent, that failure does not initiate in the markings. 4.2.4 For composite cylinders, permanent markings may be affixed by use of a printed label encapsulated by either placing it under the resin or by covering it with a permanent transparent coating, on the shoulder or the side
36、wall of the cylinder (see 4.3). BS EN 14894:2013EN 14894:2013 (E) 7 4.2.5 The characters in the stamp markings shall be at least 5 mm in height. On cylinders with an outside diameter less than 140 mm, this height may be reduced, but in no case shall the characters be less than 2,5 mm in height. 4.2.
37、6 The -mark, where applicable, shall have substantially the same vertical dimension as the other stamp markings but shall not be less than 5 mm. If the mark dimensions are changed, the proportions of the drawing shall be maintained. NOTE The proportions of the -mark are specified in the conformity m
38、arking drawing in the TPED. 4.2.7 The UN number and the letters “UN“ shall be: a) at least 12 mm high for cylinders of greater than 60 l water capacity; b) at least 6 mm in height for cylinders of 60 l water capacity or less; and c) be of an appropriate size for cylinders of 5 l or less. 4.3 Arrange
39、ments for stamp marking 4.3.1 The markings for manufacturing, operation and certification shall be arranged in three groups as specified in Clause 5, Clause 6 and Clause 7, where the manufacturing marks shall be the top grouping, the operational be the middle grouping and the certification marks be
40、the bottom grouping. 4.3.2 The arrangement of additional markings specified in Clause 8, shall be such as to avoid confusion with the markings specified in 4.3.1. 4.3.3 Where relevant, the certification marks of Table 4, e.g. the conformity reassessment mark and the TPED conformity mark, shall be ap
41、plied before or after the certification stamp markings in accordance with Table 3. NOTE Possible locations of the markings are given in Annex A. 4.3.4 When an identity plate (or label for composite cylinders) is used, all the stamp markings may be on a single plate or label together with any additio
42、nal markings, provided the layout does not cause any confusion in their interpretation.
