Full title and description
ISO 10461:2005/Amd 1:2006 — Gas cylinders — Seamless aluminium‑alloy gas cylinders — Periodic inspection and testing — Amendment 1. This one‑page amendment updates ISO 10461:2005 with corrections and clarifications applicable to periodic inspection and testing of seamless aluminium‑alloy transportable gas cylinders.
Abstract
ISO 10461:2005 (as amended by Amd 1:2006) specifies requirements for the periodic inspection and testing of seamless aluminium‑alloy transportable gas cylinders intended for compressed and liquefied gases under pressure (nominal water capacity approx. 0.5 L to 150 L). It is intended to verify cylinder integrity for continued service and excludes acetylene cylinders and composite cylinders with aluminium‑alloy liners.
General information
- Status: Withdrawn (the ISO entry shows the amendment and the base standard as withdrawn; a newer consolidated standard is available).
- Publication date: Amendment published July 2006 (ISO lists 2006-07).
- Publisher: International Organization for Standardization (ISO).
- ICS / categories: 23.020.35 (Gas cylinders / pressure vessels).
- Edition / version: Edition 2 (ISO 10461:2005) with Amendment 1 (2006).
- Number of pages: Amendment: 1 page. (Base standard ISO 10461:2005 — 39 pages).
Scope
The amendment applies to ISO 10461:2005 and therefore to the periodic inspection and testing procedures for seamless aluminium‑alloy transportable gas cylinders (water capacity about 0.5 L to 150 L). The base standard describes inspection intervals, volumetric expansion (leak/expansion) tests, visual and dimensional checks, and exceptions (for example, it does not apply to acetylene cylinders or composite cylinders with aluminium‑alloy liners).
Key topics and requirements
- Periodic inspection and testing requirements for seamless aluminium‑alloy gas cylinders (visual inspection, dimensional checks and testing to confirm fitness for service).
- Volumetric expansion testing methods (water‑jacket and non‑water‑jacket methods) and equipment/accuracy requirements for expansion measurement.
- Requirements and guidance for valve inspection and maintenance during periodic testing.
- Identification of retest dates (test date rings / colour/shape systems) and record‑keeping practices used to indicate inspection cycles.
- Clarifications and editorial/technical corrections to clauses of ISO 10461:2005 (as issued in the one‑page Amendment 1 document).
Typical use and users
Used by cylinder inspection bodies, manufacturers of aluminium‑alloy gas cylinders, gas suppliers, shipping and transport safety personnel, and competent authorities responsible for pressure vessel safety. National standards bodies and adoption documents often publish the base standard together with Amendment 1 when issuing identical national standards.

ISO 10461:2005 (base standard) — amended by ISO 10461:2005/Amd 1:2006; subsequently the subject was revised and consolidated in ISO 18119:2018 (Gas cylinders — Seamless steel and seamless aluminium‑alloy gas cylinders and tubes — Periodic inspection and testing). Other related standards referenced for valves and testing practice include ISO 10297 and ISO 14246 (valve standards) and related cylinder design/construction standards.

FAQ
Q: What is this standard?
A: ISO 10461:2005/Amd 1:2006 is Amendment 1 (2006) to ISO 10461:2005 — the international standard that sets requirements for the periodic inspection and testing of seamless aluminium‑alloy transportable gas cylinders. The amendment is a one‑page document that applies to the 2005 edition.
Q: What does it cover?
A: It covers procedures and acceptance criteria used during periodic inspection and testing (visual and dimensional checks, volumetric expansion testing and valve inspection/maintenance) to verify that aluminium‑alloy cylinders remain fit for service; exclusions include acetylene cylinders and composite cylinders with aluminium‑alloy liners.
Q: Who typically uses it?
A: Inspection and testing organizations, gas cylinder manufacturers and repairers, gas suppliers, transport safety officers and national standards/adoption committees. National adoptions often incorporate the amendment into their identical national texts.
Q: Is it current or superseded?
A: The amendment and the 2005 edition are listed as withdrawn on the ISO catalogue; the subject has been revised and consolidated in ISO 18119:2018 (which is the newer consolidated standard covering periodic inspection and testing of seamless steel and aluminium‑alloy cylinders). Users should work to the latest applicable consolidated standard or national adoption in force in their jurisdiction.
Q: Is it part of a series?
A: ISO 10461 sits with other ISO and EN standards that cover cylinder design, valves and testing (for example, standards addressing valve design and cylinder construction). The topic was later consolidated into ISO 18119:2018 which covers both steel and aluminium‑alloy cylinders.
Q: What are the key keywords?
A: gas cylinders; seamless aluminium‑alloy; periodic inspection; periodic testing; volumetric expansion; retest date rings; cylinder inspection.
