Transportable gas cylinders - Gas cylinder identification (excluding LPG) - Part 3: Colour coding

This European Standard specifies a colour coding system for the secondary method of identification of the contents of gas cylinders for industrial gases, breathing gas application and gases for medical use with particular reference to the properties of the gas or gas mixture.
This European Standard does not apply to cylinders containing liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), to refrigerant gases, to portable fire extinguishers or stationary cylinder extinguishing. Cylinder bundles are not covered in this document, for bundle identification see ISO 10961.
NOTE   LPG includes substances carried under the UN number 1965 "Hydrocarbon gas mixture, liquefied, N.O.S."

Ortsbewegliche Gasflaschen - Gasflaschen-Kennzeichnung (ausgenommen Flüssiggas (LPG)) - Teil 3: Farbcodierung

Diese Norm legt ein Farbcodierungssystem als Zweitmethode zur Identifizierung des Inhaltes von Gasflaschen für Industriegase, Atemgase und Gase für die medizinische Verwendung mit besonderem Verweis auf die Eigenschaften des Gases oder des Gasgemisches fest. Diese Norm gilt nicht für Flaschen, welche Flüssiggas (LPG, en: Liquefied Petroleum Gas) oder Gase zur Verwendung als Kältemittel enthalten, oder für tragbare Feuerlöscher sowie stationäre Löschanlagen. Die Farbkennzeichnung von Flaschenbündeln wird in dieser und anderen Normen nicht behandelt. ANMERKUNG LPG schließt Stoffe mit ein, die unter der UN-Nummer 1965 „Kohlenwasserstoffgas, Gemisch, verflüssigt, N.A.G.“ transportiert werden.

Bouteilles à gaz transportables - Identification de la bouteille à gaz (GPL exclu) - Partie 3: Code couleur

La présente Norme européenne spécifie un système de codage par couleur comme seconde méthode d’identification du contenu des bouteilles à gaz à usage industriel, pour l’application de gaz respirables et de gaz à usage médical, avec une référence particulière aux propriétés du gaz ou du mélange de gaz. La présente Norme européenne ne s’applique ni aux bouteilles contenant du gaz de pétrole liquéfié (GPL) ou des gaz réfrigérants, ni aux extincteurs d’incendie portatifs ou aux installations fixes d’extinction. Le code couleur applicable aux cadres de bouteilles n'est pas normalisé. Le GPL contient des substances portant le numéro ONU 1965 « Hydrocarbures gazeux en mélange liquéfié, N.S.A ».

Premične plinske jeklenke - Označevanje jeklenk (razen UNP) - 3. del: Barvno označevanje

Ta evropski standard določa sistem barvnega označevanja za sekundarno metodo identifikacije vsebine jeklenk za industrijske pline, aplikacije z dihalnim plinom in pline za medicinsko uporabo, s posebnim sklicevanjem na lastnosti plina ali plinske mešanice. Ta evropski standard ne velja za jeklenke, ki vsebujejo utekočinjeni naftni plin (UNP), hladilne pline, prenosne gasilske aparate in stacionarne jeklenke za gašenje. Ne ta ne drugi standardi ne obravnavajo barvnega označevanja v svežnjih.

This European Standard does not apply to cylinders containing liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), to refrigerant gases, to portable fire extinguishers or stationary cylinder extinguishing. Bundle colour coding is not addressed by this or other standards. NOTE LPG includes substances carried under the UN number 1965 "Hydrocarbon gas mixture, liquefied, N.O.S." 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN ISO 10156, Gases and gas mixtures — Determination of fire potential and oxidizing ability for the selection of cylinder valve outlets (ISO 10156:2010) ISO 5145, Cylinder valve outlets for gases and gas mixtures — Selection and dimensioning ISO 10298, Determination of toxicity of a gas or gas mixture ISO 13338, Determination of tissue corrosiveness of a gas or gas mixture European pharmacopoeia, monograph 1684 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 gas for medical use any gas or mixture of gases intended to be administered to patients for therapeutic, diagnostic or prophylactic purposes, with or without pharmacological action, or to be used for surgical tools, and it covers both medicinal and medical gases (see ISO 5145) 3.2

not otherwise specified 5 Principle Colour coding is used to give information about the contents of gas cylinders from a distance e.g. in case of emergency and to distinguish between cylinders used for industrial and medical uses.
For all applications, hazard/identification colours shall be applied to cylinder shoulders.
For gases for medical use, the body of the cylinder shall also be colour coded (see 6.3).
For applications other than medical, the cylinder body may be coloured. The use of a colour for the cylinder body that allows misinterpretation of the hazard of the gas is not allowed. Colours used shall be in accordance with RAL register 840HR given in Annex A or equivalent. 6 Colour coding system 6.1 General The following colour coding requirements are applicable to the shoulder and the body of the cylinder. 6.2 Shoulder 6.2.1 General Gas cylinders are assigned colours using three methods. Colours are chosen based on the properties of the contents in accordance with the hazard of the gas filled in the cylinder (6.2.2). Some specific gases and gas mixtures are assigned colours relevant to that gas or gas mixture as noted in 6.2.3 and 6.2.6. Instead of the hazard colour, other colour(s) may be assigned based on the components of a gas mixture (6.2.3 or 6.2.4 or 6.2.5). Annex D gives guidance for the selection of shoulder colours. 6.2.2 Gas properties 6.2.2.1 Unless specifically identified in 6.2.3, 6.2.4, 6.2.5 or 6.2.6, all gases and gas mixtures shall be identified by a colour coding indicating the properties of the contents in accordance with the colour of the danger labels as specified in RID/ADR. When two colours are applied to the cylinder shoulder, they should be in one of the formats (bands or quadrants) identified in Annex B. SIST EN 1089-3:2011
