22、9:2014EN 16509:2014 (E) 4 Introduction The purpose of this European Standard is to provide a specification for the design, construction, inspection, testing and filling of non-refillable small cylinders and their closures - containing compressed or liquefied gases (hereinafter referred to as compact
23、 cylinders). In this standard the term “compact cylinders” refers to completed and filled cylinders as well as to such cylinders in the course of design, manufacture, filling, testing and marking. The compact cylinders dealt with in this standard have been used internationally for decades. However,
24、with the withdrawal of some national rules/standards, which regulated a particular category of these cylinders and the ongoing harmonization process within Europe, there is a need to specify these cylinders in comprehensive terms to ensure safety during transport and in use. The specifications given
25、 are based on knowledge of, and experience with, materials, design requirements, manufacture including filling and control during manufacture, of compact cylinders in common use in the countries of the CEN member countries. BS EN 16509:2014EN 16509:2014 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard sets out
26、the minimum requirements relating to the material, design, construction, filling, testing and inspection at time of manufacture of non-refillable, transportable small steel cylinders and their closures of water capacities up to and including 120 ml containing non-toxic, non-flammable compressed or l
27、iquefied gases (hereinafter referred to as “compact cylinders”). NOTE 1 Such cylinders are referred as “small receptacle containing gas (gas cartridges)” in RID/ADR. NOTE 2 For cylinders with capacities greater than 120 ml, see EN 12205 or ISO 11118. 2 Normative References The following documents, i
28、n whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies.

36、ized inspection body (hereafter referred to as “the inspector”) recognized in the countries of use. The design, materials and construction of compact cylinders shall be capable of withstanding the physical and chemical properties of the gas contents in accordance with EN ISO 11114-1 and EN ISO 11114
37、-2 at the conditions specified by the manufacturer, whilst also fulfilling the requirements set down in this clause. Compact cylinders shall be manufactured from the materials and in accordance with the processes specified in 4.3 and satisfy the tests as in Clause 5. Additionally the type approval r
