Publication where the measure is specified: UGANDA GAZETTE Vol. CVIII No. 20 of 21 April 2015
Regulation where the measure is specified: US ISO 2503:2009, Gas welding equipment — Pressure regulators and pressure regulators with flow-metering devices for gas cylinders used in welding, cutting and allied processes up to 300 bar (30 MPa
Country/Region applying the measure: Uganda
Description of the measure: This Uganda Standard specifies requirements for single or two-stage pressure regulators without flow metering devices for connection to gas cylinders used for compressed gases up to 300 bar 1) (30 MPa),dissolved acetylene,liquefied petroleum gases (LPG),methylacetylene-propadiene mixtures (MPS), andcarbon dioxide (CO2),for use in welding, cutting and allied processes. It does not cover pressure regulators having a nominal outlet pressure p2 > 20 bar. This standard also specifies requirements for single or two-stage pressure regulators with flow metering devices for connection to gas cylinders used for compressed gases or mixtures up to 300 bar (30 MPa), and carbon dioxide (CO2), for use in welding, cutting and allied processes. This standard does not cover pressure regulators intended for direct use on cylinder bundles.
