This European Standard covers the vapour collection adaptor and coupler used to achieve a vapour tight path
between the transport tank and the stationary loading and unloading facilities.
This European Standard specifies the performance requirements and the critical dimensions of the vapour
recovery adaptor fitted to the tank and the mating coupler fitted to a hose or to pipework connected to the
stationary loading and unloading facilities. It also specifies the tests necessary to verify the compliance of the
equipment with this standard. The equipment specified by this European Standard is suitable for use with
liquid petroleum products and other dangerous substances of Class 3 of ADR [2] which have a vapour
pressure not exceeding 110 kPa, at 50 ℃ and petrol, and which have no sub-classification as toxic or
corrosive.
