Scope

This document applies to submersible pump assemblies intended for use with dispensers installed at petrol filling stations and used to dispense liquid fuels in accordance with EN 228 and EN 590 into tanks of motor vehicles, light aircrafts, boats and portable containers.
The submersible pump assemblies are intended for use and storage at ambient temperatures between –20 °C and +40 °C.

Additional measures can be required for use and storage at temperatures outside this range and are subject to negotiation between the manufacturer and purchaser.

This document specifies requirements for equipment with a maximum working pressure not
exceeding 350 kPa (3,5 bar), power consumption not exceeding 7 KW and a maximum power
supply voltage of 500 V.

This document specifies requirements for submersible pump assemblies of classes IIA T3 (explosion group IIA and temperature class T3) and IIB T4 (explosion group IIB and temperature class T4) using liquid fuels.

This document deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to submersible pump assemblies, when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Clause 4).

This document specifies safety requirements for design, installation, commissioning, use and maintenance.
Noise is not considered a significant hazard for the equipment in the scope of this document.

This document does not include any requirements for metering performance such as may be specified for the EU under the Measuring Instruments Directive nor those specified under the Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive.

This document does not cover requirements for mobile equipment.

NOTE 1 For fuels other than those in accordance withEN 228 and EN 590, additional measures
(dealing with possible additional or different hazards) are potentially relevant.

NOTE 2 Liquified Petroleum Gas (LPG) is not a liquid in the sense of this document.

This document is not applicable to submersible pump assemblies that are manufactured before
the date of its publication as EN.
