DIN EN ISO 12209:2013-12

This standard specifies the characteristics of outlet connections for gas cylinder valves for compressed breathable air gas cylinders. It states the fundamental requirements for both; the connection and its components and includes basic dimensions. The following connections are covered in this document: - yoke type outlet connection for SCUBA use up to a maximum cylinder working pressure of 232 bar; - threaded type outlet connections up to a maximum cylinder working pressure of 232 bar and 300 bar; and - threaded type outlet connection for SCUBA use up to a maximum cylinder working pressure of 232 bar including adaptor for users to convert into a yoke type outlet. Annex A gives the outlet connection type test procedures. Requirements for cylinder valves (see ISO 10297) are not covered by this International Standard. This document is a combination of Parts 1 to 3 of the series DIN EN ISO 12209 which was published in 2001. Apart from combining the former Parts 1 to 3, the connection dimensions have also been changed and a new Annex A on type testing has been introduced. The committee responsible for this document is NA 016-00-03 AA "Druckgasflaschen und Ausrüstung; Spiegelausschuss zu CEN/TC 23 und ISO/TC 58" ("Transportable gas cylinders and equipment; National mirror committee to CEN/TC 23 and ISO/TC 58") at DIN.
