23、fferent operating and filling conditions of acetylene cylinder bundles and covers requirements that reflect current practice and experience regarding inspection at the time of filling. Where there is any conflict between this International Standard and any applicable regulation, the regulation alway
24、s takes precedence. In International Standards, weight is equivalent to a force, expressed in newtons. However, in common parlance (as used in terms defined in this International Standard), the word “weight” continues to be used to mean “mass”, but this practice is deprecated (see ISO 80000-4). In t
25、his International Standard the unit bar is used, due to its universal use in the field of technical gases. It should, however, be noted that bar is not an SI unit, and that the according SI unit for pressure is pascal (Pa). Pressure values given in this International Standard are given as gauge pres
26、sure (pressure exceeding atmospheric pressure) unless noted otherwise.

27、RD 1Gas cylinders Acetylene cylinder bundles Filling conditions and filling inspection 1 Scope This International Standard specifies the minimum requirements for the filling conditions and filling inspection of acetylene cylinder bundles. It applies both to bundles which are filled while the cylinde
28、rs are assembled in the bundle and to bundles of which the cylinders are filled as individual cylinders and are assembled into a bundle after filling. It does not apply to bundles containing solvent-free acetylene cylinders. This International Standard is not applicable to individual acetylene cylin
29、ders that are not intended to be assembled into a bundle (see ISO 11372). 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenc
30、ed document (including any amendments) applies. ISO 11372, Gas cylinders Acetylene cylinders Filling conditions and filling inspection 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 acetylene cylinder cylinder manufactured and suitable for t
31、he transport of acetylene, containing a porous material and solvent for acetylene, with a valve and other accessories affixed to the cylinder NOTE When there is no risk of ambiguity, the word “cylinder” is used. 3.2 acetylene cylinder bundle transportable unit comprising of at least 2 cylinders up t
32、o and usually not exceeding 16 cylinders that are permanently connected together by a manifold and contained within a rigid frame equipped with all necessary equipment for filling and use 3.3 cylinder shell acetylene cylinders empty cylinder manufactured and suitable for receiving and containing a p

36、 porosity, allows the absorption of a solvent/acetylene solution NOTE The porous material may be either: monolithic, consisting of a solid product obtained by reacting materials or by materials connected together with a binder, or non-monolithic, consisting of granular, fibrous or similar materials
37、without the addition of a binder. 3.8 residual gas acetylene cylinder bundles weight of acetylene including the saturation acetylene contained in the cylinders of a bundle returned for filling 3.9 saturation gas acetylene cylinders acetylene that remains dissolved in the solvent in the cylinder at a
38、tmospheric pressure (1,013 bar) and at a temperature of 15 C 3.10 solvent acetylene cylinders liquid that is absorbed by the porous material and is capable of dissolving and releasing acetylene NOTE The following abbreviations are used: “A” for acetone; “DMF” for dimethylformamide. 3.11 solvent oper
