Abstract / scope
ISO 14469-1:2004 specifies CNG refuelling nozzles and receptacles constructed entirely of new and unused parts and materials, for road vehicles powered by compressed natural gas. A CNG refuelling connector consists of, as applicable, the receptacle and its protective cap (mounted on the vehicle) and the nozzle. ISO 14469-1:2004 is applicable only to such devices designed for a service pressure of 20 MPa (200 bar), identified by the code B200, to those using CNG in accordance with ISO 15403 and having standardized mating components, and to connectors that prevent natural gas vehicles from being fuelled by dispenser stations with service pressures higher than that of the vehicle, while allowing them to be fuelled by stations with service pressures less than or equal to the vehicle fuel system service pressure.
