StandardDetails

This International Standard deals with welded, carbon-steel, transportable gas cylinders intended for compressed and liquefied gases under pressure, of water capacity from 0,5 l to 150 l; it also applies, as far as practical, to cylinders of less than 0,5 l water capacity and greater than 150 l up to 450 l. This International Standard specifies the requirements for periodic inspection and testing to verify the integrity of such gas cylinders for further service. This International Standard does not apply to the periodic inspection and testing of acetylene cylinders or composite (fully wrapped or hoop-wrapped) cylinders. This International Standard is primarily for industrial gases other than liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), but may also be applied for LPG. For specific LPG applications, see ISO 10464.
