ISO 11117:2019/FDAmd 1 is an ISO amendment to ISO 11117:2019, the standard for gas cylinders - valve protection caps and guards - design, construction and tests. It updates the technical text for thread dimensions, dimensional envelopes, and when valve changes require further evaluation, especially in relation to the drop test.
What does ISO 11117:2019/FDAmd 1 specify?
ISO 11117:2019/FDAmd 1 specifies targeted changes to ISO 11117:2019 rather than a full rewrite. The amendment revises clause 4.3, clause 7.1, clause 7.2 e) 2), clauses 7.7.8 and 7.7.9, and clause 9.
In practice, the amendment updates the technical basis for typical North American threads, clarifies how the dimensional envelope for valve guards is described, and adjusts the rules for deciding when changes to a valve mean the drop test must be repeated. It also removes items from clause 9 and renumbers the remaining list.
What are the key requirements of ISO 11117:2019/FDAmd 1?
Clause 4.3, Figure 5, Tables 3 and 4 replace the reference data for typical North American threads. For designers and inspectors, this means the thread profile, dimensions, and tolerances used for valve protection caps, valve guards, and cylinder neck rings must follow the updated values in the standard.
Clause 7.1 now distinguishes between maximum dimensions and a maximum dimensional envelope. In practice, this gives users a clearer basis for describing what is being checked: a simple overall size limit or a more complete outline of the guard.
Clause 7.2 e) 2) now says that, for valve guards, the dimensional envelope must include the external dimensions, at least L and R, and the arrangement of physical features, for example in a schematic drawing. This matters because a guard is judged not only by size but also by shape and feature layout.
Clause 7.7.8 states that changes to the valve design, such as material, connections, or handwheel, do not require further evaluation for valve protection caps and valve guards. For valve guards, however, adding or changing the position, arrangement, or orientation of physical features of the protected valve compared with the original test valve needs further evaluation to decide whether the drop test must be repeated.
Clause 7.7.9 says that additional changes to the valve design, including material, connections, handwheel, or physical features, require further evaluation to decide whether the drop test has to be repeated. For manufacturers and test labs, this is the key change-control rule: a modified valve may invalidate earlier test evidence.
Clause 9 removes items b) and c) and renumbers the list. For users, this is an editorial cleanup, but it affects internal references in procedures and quality documents.
Who uses ISO 11117:2019/FDAmd 1?
ISO 11117:2019/FDAmd 1 is used by manufacturers of gas cylinder valve protection caps and guards, cylinder and valve designers, and testing organizations that check design and drop-test behavior. It is also relevant to quality managers, certification bodies, and buyers who need to verify that protection hardware matches the expected thread geometry and change-control rules. In practice, they use it for design review, drawing checks, test planning, and evaluating whether a product change needs re-testing.
What changed in ISO 11117:2019/FDAmd 1 from the previous edition?
ISO 11117:2019/FDAmd 1 amends ISO 11117:2019 by replacing Figure 5 and Tables 3 and 4 in clause 4.3, revising wording in clauses 7.1 and 7.2 e) 2), updating the re-evaluation rules in clauses 7.7.8 and 7.7.9, and removing items b) and c) from clause 9 with corresponding renumbering.
What does the ISO 11117:2019/FDAmd 1 document contain?
ISO 11117:2019/FDAmd 1 contains replacement technical content for typical North American threads, including one revised figure and two revised tables. It also contains wording changes that affect how the dimensional envelope for valve guards is described and documented.
The amendment includes revised instructions for when changes to valves trigger further evaluation and possible repetition of the drop test. It also contains an editorial change to clause 9 that simplifies the list structure.

Avant-propos
L'ISO (Organisation internationale de normalisation) est une fédération mondiale d'organismes nationaux
de normalisation (comités membres de l'ISO). L'élaboration des Normes internationales est en général
confiée aux comités techniques de l'ISO. Chaque comité membre intéressé par une étude a le droit de faire
partie du comité technique créé à cet effet. Les organisations internationales, gouvernementales et non
gouvernementales, en liaison avec l'ISO participent également aux travaux. L'ISO collabore étroitement avec
la Commission électrotechnique internationale (IEC) en ce qui concerne la normalisation électrotechnique.
Les procédures utilisées pour élaborer le présent document et celles destinées à sa mise à jour sont
décrites dans les Directives ISO/IEC, Partie 1. Il convient, en particulier, de prendre note des différents
critères d'approbation requis pour les différents types de documents ISO. Le présent document
a été rédigé conformément aux règles de rédaction données dans les Directives ISO/IEC, Partie 2
(voir https://www.iso.org/directives).
