Gasinfrastruktur - Druckprüfung, In- und Außerbetriebnahme - Funktionale Anforderungen; Deutsche Fassung EN 12327:2012
Overview
This European functional standard describes common principles for pressure testing, commissioning and decommissioning of gas infrastructures with the exception of installation pipework which is covered by DIN EN 1775. They have been extracted from the detailed codes of practice and operating manuals in the member countries. The described procedures are applicable to strength testing, tightness testing and combined testing. Test pressure levels, test periods and acceptance criteria are not covered by this standard. This basic standard is particularly directed at designers, contractors and energy industry network operators. The committee responsible for this standard is NA 032-02-02 AA "Gasverteilung" ("Gas distribution") at DIN.
