Scope:

1.1  These requirements cover hose nozzle valves that are intended to be used for the control of flammable and combustible liquids. They are of the type used in motor fuel dispensing equipment. Hose nozzle valves covered by this standard are for use with flammable and combustible liquids which are handled at temperatures within the range of -20°F (-29°C) to 125°F (52°C) and an operating pressure of minimum 50 psi (350 kPa).

1.2  These requirements cover hose nozzle valves of the manually operated and automatic pressure operated type. When they form a part of an assembly which provides for additional functions or service, the requirements are outside the scope of these requirements.

Project need:

Currently the standard only allows the hose nozzle valve to be rigidly anchored or otherwise supported for the test. This could cause damage to the hose nozzle valve, therefore it would be better to rigidly anchor or support the pipe for the test.
