Page 3EN 13083:2001ForewordThis European Standard has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 296 "Tanks for transport ofdangerous goods", the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text orby endorsement, at the latest by September 2001, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at thelatest by September
2001.This European Standard has been submitted for reference into the RID and/or in the technical annexes of the ADR.Therefore in this context the standards listed in the normative references and covering basic requirements of theRID/ADR not addressed within the present standard are normative only when the standards themselves arereferred to in the RID and/or in the technical annexes of the ADR.This European standard forms part of a coherent standards programme comprising the following standards :Tanks for transport of liquid dangerous goods with vapour pressure not exceeding 110 kPa (absolutepressure) at 50 °C and petrol - Service Equipment -EN 13081:2001, Vapour collection adaptor and coupler.EN 13082:2001, Vapour transfer valve.EN 13083:2001, Adaptor for bottom loading and unloading.prEN 13308:1998, Non-pressure balanced footvalve.prEN 13314:1998, Fill hole cover.prEN 13315:1998, Gravity discharge coupler.prEN 13316:1998, Pressure balanced footvalve.prEN 13317:1998, Manhole cover assembly.prEN 13922:2000, Level detection - Secondary shut off control system.WI 00296009, Pressure and vacuum breather vent.WI 00296010, Emergency pressure relief valve.WI 00296015, Operating conditions and safety interlocks.WI 00296017, Product recognition.According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the followingcountries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland,France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden,Switzerland and the United Kingdom.SIST EN 13083:2002



Page 4EN 13083:2001IntroductionThe European Directive 94/63/EC on Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) emissions lays down the obligation tolimit the emission into the atmosphere of vapour created at the time of loading and unloading of petrol by tanks.To achieve this result, it is necessary to establish a vapour tight path between the transport tank, petrol storagetank, service-station tank, and the vapour recovery unit when conducting loading and unloading operations.The adaptor for bottom loading and unloading, subject of this standard, allows the transfer of product through amating loading coupler to a transport tank and from the tank to a service station tank by a mating gravity dischargecoupler.SIST EN 13083:2002



Page 5EN 13083:20011 ScopeThis European Standard covers externally actuated and self actuated adaptors for bottom loading and unloading.This standard specifies the performance requirements and the critical dimensions of the adaptor for bottom loadingand unloading. It also specifies the tests necessary to verify the compliance of the equipment with this standard.The equipment specified by this standard is suitable for use with liquid petroleum products and other dangeroussubstances of Class 3 of ADR – European Agreement concerning the international carriage of dangerous goods byroad – (flammable liquids) which have a vapour pressure not exceeding 110 kPa at 50 °C (including petrol), andwhich have no subclassification as toxic or corrosive.2 Normative referencesThis European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. Thesenormative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed hereafter. Fordated references,
