Overview
This amendment (EN 13083:2008/FprA1) to the CEN European Standard for tanks for transport of dangerous goods - service equipment - adaptor for bottom loading and unloading clarifies the treatment of the adaptor cap by removing the original Clause 5.14 and linking cap design and testing to a separate cap standard (EN 16249). The draft amendment was prepared by CEN/TC 296 and aligns the adaptor standard with the cap standard to ensure consistent compliance and testing.
Key Topics
- Normative references updated: prEN 16249 (Cap for the adaptor for bottom loading and unloading) is added to Clause 2 and the Foreword.
- Deletion of Clause 5.14: The design characteristic section specific to the adaptor cap (5.14) is removed; cap requirements are now covered by EN 16249.
- Function clause amended: The last paragraph of Clause 4 is replaced to require that the cap, when installed, meet the requirements of prEN 16249.
- Type tests revised: In Clause 6.3, type testing references for the adaptor cap are replaced by compliance tests carried out in accordance with prEN 16249. Clause 6.3.5 (Adaptor cap seat tightness test and its subclauses) is removed and replaced by a reference to EN 16249 compliance testing.
Applications
This amendment has practical value for manufacturers, test houses, certification bodies and fleet operators involved in the transport of dangerous goods using bottom-loading/unloading adaptors. Key benefits include:
- Regulatory alignment: Clear separation of adaptor body requirements and cap requirements reduces ambiguity in standards application.
- Harmonised testing: Reference to EN 16249 centralises cap design and performance testing, simplifying type test programmes.
- Simplified compliance: Manufacturers can design caps to a dedicated standard and demonstrate compliance through recognised tests, facilitating certification and market acceptance.
- Operational safety: Consistent cap requirements and testing reduce risks of leakage or improper sealing during bottom loading and unloading operations.
Related Standards
- EN 13083:2008 - original standard for adaptor for bottom loading and unloading (modified by this amendment).
- EN 16249 - Cap for the adaptor for bottom loading and unloading; now a normative reference for cap design and testing.
- Other applicable CEN publications may be referenced for related fittings, flanges and transport tank equipment.
For implementers, the amendment emphasizes that cap-specific design and verification must be demonstrated by compliance with EN 16249 rather than by retained or bespoke clauses in EN 13083. This creates a clearer compliance pathway and helps ensure consistent safety and performance across the supply chain.
