This is the French edition of EIGA Doc 151 on preventing over pressurisation during the filling of cryogenic tanks, published by AFGC from the EIGA original.
It corresponds to the 2008 revision. EIGA issued a new revision, Doc 151/23, so this edition is useful as a French language reference but it is not the current text. EIGA also states on its translated documents that the English original is the official version.
What the document covers
- French language edition of the EIGA guidance on preventing over pressurisation during filling.
- Corresponds to revision 151/08.
- Superseded by EIGA Doc 151/23, which is the current edition.
- Covers the same UPL and MAPFP relationship as the English text.
- EIGA treats the English original as the official version.
What it means for equipment
We list this edition because French speaking operations work from it, and because the version difference is the point. Filling protection is a safety requirement, so the edition you work to should be the current one.
If a procedure in your company cites 151/08, that is worth reviewing against the 2023 revision.
