Proposal from Germany to clarify the nature of approvals granted under UN R67 with respect to Class 1 and Class 2 hoses and their couplings (i.e., as hose assemblies or as hose and coupling pairs approved as separate components).
32. The expert from Germany presented ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2013/6 superseding ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2012/18 and clarifying the provisions of UN Regulation No. 67 with respect to hose assemblies. GRSG adopted the document, as amended below, and requested the secretariat to submit the amendments to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their November 2013 sessions as draft Supplement 13 to the 01 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 67.
Paragraph 2.7.1., the text in square brackets, amend to read (removing the square brackets):
“The assembly instruction shall be written in the language of the country to which the type of hose or couplings will be delivered, or at least in English. It shall include detailed characteristics of equipment used for the assembly operation.”
