This document specifies the requirements for valves useable on tanks with a minimum working pressure greater than 50 kPa for the transport of dangerous goods by road and rail for the following functions:

Tanks for transport of liquid products:

• - secondary closure of bottom discharge lines;
• - primary closure on top of the tank (liquid, air, other connections);
• - aeration valve on top of the tank;
• - and other valves as specified in Annex F of EN 14564:2019 according to the scope of this document.

Tanks for gases:

• - secondary closure of bottom discharge lines;
• - secondary closure on top of the tank for poisonous gases: liquid phase and gas phase;
• - and other valves as specified in Annex F of EN 14564:2019.

This includes the following types of closures:

• - valves (e.g. spindle operated valves, plug and ball valves, butterfly valves and gate valves);
• - dry disconnect couplings.

Primary closures of the gas phase at the foot of a tank for liquefied gas are covered by the requirements of foot valves in EN 14433.

NOTE - The standard is also applicable to liquefied gases including LPG, however, for a dedicated LPG standard see EN 13175 [3
