Overview
SIST EN 1762:2019 outlines the European requirements for rubber hoses and hose assemblies used in the transfer of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), in both liquid and gaseous phases, and natural gas. The standard applies to hoses with a maximum working pressure of 25 bar (2.5 MPa) and covers safe operation within a temperature range of −30°C to +70°C, or −50°C to +70°C for hoses designated with "-LT" classification. The standard is intended for manufacturers, installers, and end-users dealing with the handling and transfer of LPG and natural gas, ensuring safety, reliability, and compliance throughout Europe.
Key Topics
- Scope of Use
- Rubber hoses and hose assemblies for conveying LPG (liquid or gaseous phase) and natural gas
- Maximum working pressure: 25 bar (2.5 MPa)
- Temperature range: −30°C to +70°C (standard) or −50°C to +70°C (LT)
- Classification
- Hoses categorized into five types and three grades by function, construction, and electrical properties
- Delivery hoses, suction and delivery hoses (standard, smooth bore, rough bore), and their respective low-temperature versions
- Materials and Construction
- Hoses constructed with synthetic rubber linings and covers, reinforcing textile or steel wire layers, and, where required, metallic helix or anti-static wires
- Specific requirements for electrical conductivity and bonding for safe handling of flammable gases
- Testing and Performance
- Stringent physical, chemical, and electrical tests for tensile strength, elongation, abrasion, chemical resistance, flexibility, and electrical continuity
- Rigorous type, routine, and acceptance tests for finished hoses and assemblies
- Marking and Traceability
- Mandatory permanent markings with manufacturer details, type, nominal bore, working pressure, batch, and compliance indicators
- Assembly marking for installer or manufacturer and date of assembly
- Environmental Considerations
- Guidance on material selection, packaging, and lifecycle impacts to minimize environmental risks
Applications
SIST EN 1762:2019 is highly relevant for:
- Fuel stations and gas storage sites: Ensuring safe delivery and transfer of LPG and natural gas at filling stations, industrial plants, and storage terminals
- Transportation: Use in flexible connections for LPG tanker trucks, railcars, and ship-to-shore transfer systems
- Industrial use: Suitable for connections in heating, process gas supply, and fuel lines requiring compliance with European safety standards
- General gas handling: Any application where safe, reliable transfer of pressurized LPG or natural gas is required, especially under varying environmental and temperature conditions
The standard sets out clear criteria to ensure safety against high pressure, temperature fluctuations, and static electricity, protecting users and assets during handling of combustible gases.
Related Standards
For comprehensive compliance and compatibility, users should be aware of the following related standards:
- EN ISO 1402: Hydrostatic testing of hoses and hose assemblies
- EN ISO 4671: Measurement of hose dimensions and lengths
