Cryogenic vessels. Static vacuum insulated vessels. Design, fabrication, inspection and testing | Status: Current, Work in hand

1 Scope This European Standard specifies requirements for the design, fabrication, inspection and testing of static vacuum insulated cryogenic vessels designed for a maximum allowable pressure of more than 0,5 bar. This European Standard is applicable to static vacuum insulated cryogenic vessels for fluids as specified in EN 13458‑1, and does not apply to vessels designed for toxic fluids. For static vacuum insulated cryogenic vessels designed for a maximum allowable pressure of not more than 0,5 bar this standard can be used as a guide.
