The arrangement shall meet atleast the impact requirements for a rear under-run protective device required by EU directives (see 79/490/EEC[1]).
The width of this arrangement shall be not less than that of the rear under-run protective device and not lessthan that of the pipework and fittings. There shall be a clearance of at least 100 mm between the arrangement andthe rearmost point of the piping, fittings and valves under gas pressure during transport.SIST EN 13807:2004

Flexible hoses or non-metallic pipework should only be used as part of the fixed pipework on the batteryvehicle after trials have proved their acceptability and compatibility. The length of such hoses and pipework shouldbe kept to a minimum.4.5.6Joints shall not decrease the strength of tubing as can happen when cutting threads.4.6 Main valve(s)/connection(s)4.6.1The main connection shall be compatible with the gas and the pressure for which the battery vehicle isintended.SIST EN 13807:2004

Flexible hosesshall have electrical continuity with a resistance not exceeding 106 W.4.7.2A means of immobilising the battery vehicle whilst it is connected for filling or emptying shall be provided.5 ManufacturingA battery vehicle shall be manufactured in accordance with the design criteria listed in clause 4.For this condition to be satisfied the manufacturers shall:—use welding procedures in accordance with EN 288-1;—use approved welders in accordance with EN 287-1;—use brazing procedures in accordance with EN 13134;—use approved brazers in accordance with EN 13133.6 Identification6.1 GeneralA battery vehicle design can include components which protect the manifold and which cause an obstruction to theview of the shoulders of the elements. Therefore the requirements for labelling and colour coding of batteryvehicles differ from those for individual cylinders given in EN 1089-2 and EN 1089-3.Additionally, markings on the individual elements can also be obscured, therefore certain information which shouldbe checked at the time of filling shall be duplicated on the outside of the battery vehicle.For acetylene see annex B.6.2 Product and hazard identification6.2.1 Precautionary labelsIt is not necessary to attach labels to individual elements within a battery vehicle.SIST EN 13807:2004
