Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

assessment, as well as information about ISO’s adherence to the WTO principles in the Technical
Barriers to Trade (TBT) see the following URL: Foreword - Supplementary information
The committee responsible for this document is Technical Committee ISO/TC 153, Valves, Subcommittee
SC 1, Design, manufacture, marking and testing.
ISO 28921 consists of the following parts, under the general title Industrial valves — Isolating valves for

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 28921-2:2015(E)
Industrial valves — Isolating valves for low-temperature
applications —
Part 2:
Type testing
WARNING — Persons using this International Standard should be familiar with normal
laboratory practice. This International Standard does not purport to address all of the safety
issues, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user to establish appropriate
safety and health practices and to ensure compliance with any national regulatory requirements.
1 Scope
This part of ISO 28921 specifies requirements for the type testing of isolating valves for low-temperature
applications to verify the performance of valves at a low temperature from – 50 °C down to – 196 °C.
NOTE Nominal sizes (DN), nominal pipe sizes (NPS), nominal pressure (PN) and Classes are covered in
ISO 28921-1.
This part of ISO 28921 does not evaluate valve actuators unless they are integral part of the valve.
Valves during testing can be operated manually or an actuator can be used during the testing. The effect
of cold gas vapours during testing is
