DIN EN 13160-2:2014-10

This draft standard gives requirements and the corresponding test/assessment methods applicable to leak detection kits (leak detector) based on the measurement of pressure change. Leak detection kits are intended to be used with double skin, underground or above ground, pressurized or non-pressurized, tanks or pipework designed for water polluting liquids/fluids. The kits are usually composed of: - measuring device; - evaluation device; - alarm device; - pressure generator; - pressure relief device; - liquid stop device; - condensate trap. This draft standard was worked out under the Mandate M/131 'Pipes, tanks and ancillaries not in contact with water for human consumption' under the Regulation (EU) No 305/2011 of the European Parliament and the Council 9 March 2011 laying down harmonised conditions for the marketing of construction products.
