This European Standard specifies the requirements for material, design, manufacture, testing, marking
and documentation of stainless steel pliable corrugated gas tubing kits for buildings with a maximum
operating pressure (MOP) less than or equal to 0,5 bar and a nominal size range from DN 10 to DN 50.
This document applies to stainless steel pliable corrugated gas tubing kits used for 1st, 2nd and 3rd
family gases in residential, commercial and industrial gas installations.
This document does not apply to:
pliable tubing without cover;
corrugated safety metal hose assemblies for connection to moveable appliances.
This document does not cover the installation aspects of stainless steel pliable corrugated gas tubing kits.
