Gases and gas mixtures. Determination of fire potential and oxidizing ability for the selection of cylinder valve outlets. | Status: Superseded, Withdrawn

1 Scope This International Standard specifies methods for determining whether or not a gas or gas mixture is flammable in air and whether a gas or gas mixture is more or less oxidizing than air under atmospheric conditions. This International Standard is intended to be used for the classification of gases and gas mixtures including the selection of gas cylinder valve outlets. This International Standard does not cover the safe preparation of these mixtures under pressure and at temperatures other than ambient.
