This draft European Standard is submitted to CEN members for enquiry. It has been drawn up by the Technical Committee
CEN/TC 393.
If this draft becomes a European Standard, CEN members are bound to comply with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations
which stipulate the conditions for giving this European Standard the status of a national standard without any alteration.

This draft European Standard was established by CEN in three official versions (English, French, German). A version in any other
language made by translation under the responsibility of a CEN member into its own language and notified to the CEN-CENELEC
Management Centre has the same status as the official versions.

CEN members are the national standards bodies of Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia,
Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway,
Poland, Portugal, Republic of North Macedonia, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Türkiye and

European foreword
This document (prEN 13616-1:2024) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 393
“Equipment for storage tanks and for service stations”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 13616-1:2016.
EN 13616-1:2016:
a) Clause 2: Normative references were updated;
b) 3.1: the term “initial closure level” was replaced by “initial closure level for two stages closure device
only”;
c) 3.2: the term “final closure level” was replaced by “final closure level for single or two stages closure
final device”;
d) 3.9: Definition was added;
e) 4.2.1 and 4.2.3: Tolerance of 5 % was added and the maximum flow velocities was reduced to 2,5 m/s;
f) 5.2: Chemical suitability test was updated;
g) 5.3: Temperature range for final closure simulation was deleted;
h) New subclause 5.5: Subclause relating to pressure surge test was removed from previous subclause
on function test (5.6);
i) New Clause 6: Only FPC (Factory Production Control) aspects were kept according to previous
Clause 6 “AVCP”;
j) Figure B.1: Key was updated;
k) Table C.1: Maximum flow rate values were updated;
l) Annex ZA “Construction products Regulation - CPR” was deleted due to the fact that revision is not
candidate to the harmonization to CPR (but only to ATEX Directive).
An environmental check-list is indicated in the informative Annex D.
This document has been prepared under a standardization request addressed to CEN by the European
Commission. The Standing Committee of the EFTA States subsequently approves these requests for its
Member States.
For the relationship with EU Legislation, see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this
document.
1 Scope
This document contains requirements, test and assessment methods, marking, labelling and packaging
applicable to overfill prevention devices with closure device. The devices are usually composed by:
— sensor;
— evaluation device;
— closure device.
Overfill prevention devices intended to be used in/with underground and/or above ground, non-
pressurized, static tanks designed for liquid fuels.
NOTE Liquid fuel means liquids for internal combustion engines, heating/cooling boilers and generators.
