Overview
SIST EN 14678-2:2009/kFprA1:2011 is a crucial European standard developed by CEN that specifies the installation requirements for LPG automotive filling stations. This standard focuses on the safety and functionality of components used in fixed LPG filling stations, including multi-fuel stations, excluding the dispensers. It serves as a comprehensive guideline to ensure that automotive LPG equipment and accessories are installed and maintained to meet strict safety and operational criteria.
This standard does not cover on-site and off-site safety distances, which may be regulated by national legislation that takes precedence over this European Standard where applicable.
Key Topics
Scope of Installation Requirements
SIST EN 14678-2:2009/kFprA1:2011 applies to the installation of all components other than dispensers at LPG automotive filling stations. It covers fixed LPG filling stations and multi-fuel stations that incorporate LPG equipment.Components Covered
The standard addresses valves, pressure vessels, safety devices, liquid level indicators, self-closing valves, and shut-off valves designed for safe LPG handling.Definitions and Terminology Updates
The amendment updates key definitions related to LPG composition, unmanned/refuel stations, pressure vessels, and various types of valves essential for automotive LPG dispensing.Unattended Filling Stations
Special provisions are introduced for self-service (unattended) LPG filling stations, requiring systems for permanent remote assistance and emergency communication protocols.Pressure Vessel Specifications
The term “pressure vessel” replaces “tank” throughout the document to align with the current terminology and safety requirements. Guidance on design and manufacture references other relevant EN standards such as EN 12542 and EN 13445.Safety and Emergency Systems
Requirements include activation and automatic communication of Emergency Shut Down (ESD) systems to remote operators, with trained personnel available for assistance.Refuelling Instructions
Clear, indelible instructions must be displayed at vehicle filling points in unattended stations to guide customers on correct refuelling procedures.
Applications
SIST EN 14678-2:2009/kFprA1:2011 serves multiple practical uses in the LPG automotive industry:
Station Installation and Maintenance
Ensures that automotive LPG filling stations comply with stringent European safety and installation standards, enhancing operational safety and reliability.Safety Compliance
Helps manufacturers, installers, and operators implement correct safety devices and systems to mitigate risks associated with LPG filling operations.Support for Unattended Stations
Facilitates the design of safe, user-friendly self-service LPG stations incorporating remote assistance, vital for modern automated refuelling concepts.Industry Standardization
Provides a uniform framework across European countries, supporting harmonized practices for LPG equipment installation on automotive filling sites.
Related Standards
Several related European standards complement SIST EN 14678-2:2009/kFprA1:2011 to ensure comprehensive safety and technical integrity:
EN 12542 – LPG equipment and accessories: Design and manufacture of static welded steel cylindrical pressure vessels for LPG storage volumes up to 13 m³.
EN 13445 – Unfired Pressure Vessels: Requirements applicable to pressure vessels used in LPG filling stations.
EN 589 – Automotive fuels: Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) specification ensuring fuel quality and composition.
EN 14678-1 – Equipment for LPG automotive filling stations: Part 1 covers dispensers and their installation.
Compliance with SIST EN 14678-2:2009/kFprA1:2011 alongside these standards ensures that automotive LPG filling stations meet high safety, performance, and environmental protection criteria established across Europe.
