Title: Updated LPG code of practice
Post by: Plumber on April 13, 2012, 11:09:30 AM

The updated code of practice for in-situ filling of LPG cylinders has been approved and republished.

The code covers:
•   in-situ filling of cylinders by volume from a road tank wagon utilising an ullage or contents gauge
•   dissipating static electricity during in-situ fill operations
•   information on establishing and managing the hazardous atmosphere zones for in-situ filling.
Compliance with this Code does not remove the requirement to comply with other sections of the HSNO legislation (or related regulations) or other legislation, such as the Health and Safety in Employment Act 1992.
