Project need:

This standard contains requirements for newly produced compressed natural gas fuel system components, intended for use on natural gas powered vehicles. This standard applies to devices which have a service pressure of either 16 500 kPa (2,400 psi), 20 700 kPa (3,000 psi), or 24 800 kPa (3,600 psi). Components included in this standard include: check valve; manual valve, manual container valve, automatic valve, gas injector, pressure indicator, pressure regulator, gas flow adjustor, gas/air mixer, pressure relief valve, pressure relief device, excess flow valve, gas-tight housing and ventilation hose, rigid fuel line, flexible fuel line, filter, fittings, and relief line closures
