Transportable refillable fully wrapped composite cylinders for Liquefied Petroleum Gases (LPG) - Design and Construction
This European Standard specifies minimum requirements for materials, design, construction, prototype testing and routine manufacturing inspections of fully wrapped composite cylinders with a water capacity from 0,5 litre up to and including 150 litres for liquefied petroleum gases (LPG) exposed to ambient temperatures, with a test pressure of 30 bar.
This standard is only applicable to cylinders which are fitted with a pressure relief valve (see 4.1.3).
NOTE 1 Cylinders made to this standard are suitable for the temperature range of -40 °C to 50 °C.

- ASTM D 2343-95; For carbon:
- ASTM D 4018-99. Alternative standards are acceptable providing that they give equivalent results. b) Shear properties in accordance with the following standard:
- ASTM D 2344-84. Alternative standards are acceptable providing that they give equivalent results. c) Impact properties Impact tests on the material shall be carried out at room temperature (+20 °C) and at –20 °C. At each temperature three specimens shall be tested. As an alternative, the cylinder impact tests (Test No. 9, see 5.2.9) with the cylinders at –20 °C shall be carried out.
