Overview

SIST EN 14564:2013/oprA1:2016 is a European standard developed by CEN/TC 296 that establishes precise terminology for tanks used in the transport of dangerous goods. This standard complements the broader regulatory framework established by RID/ADR, focusing specifically on terminology relevant to tanks and their components. The standard excludes carriage in bulk, ensuring clear and consistent language for tank manufacturing, testing, and transport operations to enhance safety and compliance across Europe.

The 2016 amendment (prA1) introduces modifications to general terms and definitions, aligning with updates in RID/ADR and provides additional schematic references for tank openings and closures according to tank codes. This ensures harmonization and clarity in technical communication related to tanks for dangerous goods logistics.

Key Topics

  • Terminology Standardization: Defines key terms related to tank components, shapes, openings, and closures, ensuring uniform understanding in transport and safety documentation.
  • Tank Codes & Schematics: Introduces Annex F with detailed schematic illustrations of tank openings and closures categorized by tank codes (A, B, C, D). These schematics clarify the positioning and types of flanges, valves, internal valves, and non-return valves.
  • Shape Definitions: Clarifies geometric terms relevant for tank design, such as convex, concave, and elliptical cross sections, alongside specific criteria like curvature radius and maximum widths.
  • Amendments to RID/ADR References: Updates Annex A and other definitions to reflect the 2013 version of RID/ADR, noting potential temporary inconsistencies due to biannual RID/ADR updates.
  • Closure Devices Definition: Adds specific terminology for closure devices, crucial for understanding how tanks are sealed during dangerous goods transport.

Applications

SIST EN 14564:2013/oprA1:2016 is essential for manufacturers, transport operators, regulatory authorities, and safety inspectors involved in the packaging, design, and transportation of dangerous goods in tanks. Key practical applications include:

  • Design and Manufacturing: Engineers and designers use the standardized terms to ensure tank constructions meet legal and safety requirements, facilitating consistent communication with regulators and clients.
  • Regulatory Compliance: Companies involved in dangerous goods transit reference this terminology for certification, labeling, and inspections, ensuring adherence to European transport regulations.
  • Safety Training and Documentation: Safety professionals employ the standardized language for user manuals, safety data sheets, and operator training, promoting safe handling procedures.
  • Technical Communication: Facilitates clear and unambiguous technical specifications and contract documentation between stakeholders across different countries and languages.

Related Standards

SIST EN 14564:2013/oprA1:2016 works in conjunction with several standards and regulations to ensure comprehensive safety and regulation of dangerous goods transport:

  • RID/ADR Regulations: The standard references and aligns with the European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road (ADR) and related rail transport regulations (RID).
  • EN Standards on Tank Construction: Complements other CEN standards covering design, testing, and inspection of tanks for dangerous goods, such as EN 13094 and EN 13445.
  • ISO Standards on Fluid Systems: Relates to broader fluid system vocabularies and tank/container standards in the ISO 4406 series for contamination control.
  • National Regulations: Supports implementation of national laws in CEN member states regarding the transport and packaging of hazardous materials.

By adhering to SIST EN 14564:2013/oprA1:2016, stakeholders ensure precise terminology and schematic understanding within the transport of dangerous goods sector, enhancing operational safety, legal compliance, and cross-border communication.
