BS ISO 4399:2019 pdf download – Fluid power systems and components — Connectors and associated components — Nominal pressures
This document specifies a selection of nominal pressures for hydraulic and pneumatic fluid power connectors and associated components.
NOTE There can be a need to provide a selection of nominal pressures for connectors and associated components used in applications where the external pressure on the components is greater than the internal pressure, for example vacuum service. A document that deals with this subject will be established in due course.

4.1 When used in a sentence, the nominal pressure shall be expressed in megapascals (MPa), with the equivalent value in bar 1) shown in parentheses.
4.2 The nominal pressure shall be assumed to be gauge pressure, i.e. the pressure above atmospheric pressure, when no modifier is given.
4.3 Nominal pressures other than those specified here shall be selected from ISO 2944.BS ISO 4399 pdf download.
