The KS W ISO 11242-2018 (2023) standard, published by the Korea Agency for Technology and Standards (KATS), sets out detailed requirements for pressure equalization in aviation cargo containers. This specification ensures that containers maintain proper internal air pressure to prevent damage from atmospheric changes during flight. It covers design, construction, testing, and labeling criteria essential for maintaining the integrity of cargo containers under various environmental conditions encountered during international shipping.
The standard is aligned with ISO 11242:2018, which provides a global framework for ensuring that aviation cargo containers are robust and safe for use across different regions. Compliance with KS W ISO 11242-2018 (2023) enhances the reliability of air transport systems by addressing key operational challenges related to container design.
It outlines specific guidelines for manufacturers, airlines, and logistics companies involved in aviation cargo handling. These include recommendations on material selection, manufacturing processes, quality control measures, and performance testing procedures designed to safeguard both cargo integrity and passenger safety.
