23、 up to 2,9 MPa. This European Standard specifies the important dimensions and arrangements for the filling and emptying connections. Safety functions of these devices are subject to RID requirements and not described in this document. This European Standard applies to new tank wagons built after the

The external connection interface shall be: DN 80 diameter for the liquid phase, and DN 50 diameter for the vapour phas
28、e. 4.2 Constituent parts Both phases shall be equipped with: BS EN 12561-3:2011EN 12561-3:2011 (E) 5 a) an internal quick closing bottom valve according to 5.3, b) an external branch pipe according to 5.5, c) at each end of the branch pipe a flanged external valve according to 5.4 fitted e.g. with t
29、hreaded coupling according to Annex A. The vapour phase branch pipe shall be identified by the letters “GAS“ of 30 mm height embossed on a metallic plate as shown in Figure 1 which is permanently fixed on both sides of the tank wagon.

35、stant operation safety device which closes the valve automatically in the event of an unintended movement of the tank wagon or a fire. This shall be achieved by means of a control cable as shown in Figure 4 which connected to an external rail hook. The guide tube and attachment ring for the control
36、cable shall for a buffer height of 1 060 mm be arranged and dimensioned as shown in Figure 4 below. The inner diameter of the attachment ring shall be 50 mm. When the bottom valve is closed, the control cable including the ring shall remain in gauge. b) Have the operating controls positioned at a su
37、fficient distance from the outlet pipes to permit easy access for operation.
