DIN EN 88-2:2008 Pressure regulators and associated safety devices for gas appliances - Part 2: Pressure regulators for inlet pressures above 500 mbar up to and including 5 bar; English version of DIN EN 88-2:2008-03
This European Standard specifies the safety, construction and performance requirements for pressure
regulators (hereafter referred to as regulators) intended for use with gas burners and gas-burning
appliances using fuel gases of the 15', 2nd and 3rd families. This European Standard covers type
testing only. It also provides additional information for the purchaser and user.
This European Standard is applicable to regulators that may be tested independently of gas burners
and gas-burning appliances, which have a declared working pressure from above 500 mbar up to and
including 5 bar.
This European Standard is also applicable to regulators incorporating safety devices.
NOTE 1 For safety accessories and pressure accessories, the requirements of EN 13611:2007, Annex F also
apply.
NOTE 2 Regulators conforming to EN 88-2 fulfil also the requirements of EN 88-1.
Regulators intended to be used on pipe work installations for third family gases are also covered by
EN 13785 and EN 13786.
This European Standard is not applicable to:
a) pressure regulators that are connected directly to mains pipe-work or to a container that
maintains a standard distribution pressure;
b) pressure regulators which use electrical auxiliary energy.
