本文件规定了可运输气缸组的设计、施工、测试和初始检查要求。 适用于装有压缩气体、液化气体及其混合物的气瓶的气瓶组。它也适用于乙炔的气瓶组。附件B中提供了溶剂中含有乙炔的乙炔气瓶束的附加要求。但是，本文件不包括无溶剂乙炔气瓶的乙炔气瓶束。 本文件规定了将单个气缸组装成一捆时适用的附加要求。除非另有说明，否则一个气缸组内的单个气缸符合适用于单个气缸的标准。 本文件主要用于液化石油气（LPG）以外的工业气体，但也可用于液化石油气。 本文件不适用于将气瓶折叠在一个框架内的包装，该框架设计为永久固定在公路车辆、铁路货车或地面上，作为客户储存容器。当对维护安全标准、可靠性和性能提出额外和特殊要求时，它也不适用于设计用于极端环境或操作条件（例如海上气瓶组）的气瓶组。

This document specifies the requirements for the design, construction, testing and initial inspection of a transportable cylinder bundle. It is applicable to cylinder bundles containing cylinders containing compressed gas, liquefied gas and mixtures thereof. It is also applicable to cylinder bundles for acetylene. Additional requirements for acetylene cylinder bundles containing acetylene in a solvent are provided in Annex B. This document does not, however, cover acetylene cylinder bundles with solvent‐free acetylene cylinders. This document specifies the additional requirements that apply when individual cylinders are assembled into a bundle. Unless otherwise stated, individual cylinders within a cylinder bundle conform to applicable standards for single cylinders. This document is intended primarily for industrial gases other than liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), but it can also be used for LPG. This document does not apply to packages in which cylinders are manifolded together in a frame that is designed to be fixed permanently to a road vehicle, to a railway wagon or to the ground as a customer storage vessel. It also does not apply to cylinder bundles that are designed for use in extreme environmental or operational conditions (e.g. offshore cylinder bundles) when additional and extraordinary requirements are imposed to maintain safety standards, reliability and performance.
