Proposal for Amendments to the Legal Inspection Requirements for Valves for Liquefied Petroleum Gas Cylinders; (1 page(s), in Chinese), (2 page(s), in English)

With a view to reducing the risk of gas leakage arising from the inadvertent operation of valves for liquefied petroleum gas cylinders and further enhancing the safety of their use, the Bureau of Standards, Metrology and Inspection (BSMI) proposes to update the applicable inspection standard to CNS 1324:2024. The proposed revision is intended to strengthen the safety requirements for such valves and thereby improve the safety of liquefied petroleum gas cylinders in use. The Conformity Assessment Procedures will remain unchanged.
