9、L 2.1.3 A component shall be used in accordance with its rating established for the intended conditions of use. 2.1.4 Specic components are incomplete in construction features or restricted in performance capabilities. Such components are intended for use only under limited conditions, such as certa

10、in temperatures not exceeding specied limits, and shall be used only under those specic conditions. 2.2 Units of measurements 2.2.1 Values stated without parentheses are the requirement. Values in parentheses are explanatory or approximate information. 2.3 Undated references 2.3.1 Any undated refere

11、nce to a code or standard appearing in the requirements of this standard shall be interpreted as referring to the latest edition of that code or standard. 2.4 Terminology 2.4.1 In the following text, a requirement that applies only to a particular type of tank is so identied by a specic reference in

12、 that requirement to the type or types of tank involved. Absence of such specic reference or use of the term “tank” indicates that the requirement applies to all underground storage tanks unless indicated otherwise. 3 Glossary 3.1 For the purpose of this standard the following denitions apply. 3.1 r

13、evised December 19, 2014 3.1.1 ATMOSPHERIC TANK A storage tank that has been designed to operate at pressures of negative 0.5 psig to 1.0 (negative 3.4 kPa to 6.8 kPa) psig measured at the top of the tank. 3.1.1 added December 19, 2014 3.1.2 CATHODICALLY PROTECTED TANK A steel tank with a pre-engine

14、ered, factory installed galvanic type cathodic protection system consisting of anodes, dielectric coatings, isolated devices and accessories applied to outer tank shell which provides external corrosion protection. Cathodically protected tank requirements are found in Part I. 3.1.2 added December 19

15、, 2014 3.1.3 COATED TANK A steel tank with a polyurethane (PUR) layer directly bonded to the exterior of the tank which provides external corrosion protection. The polyurethane (PUR) layer does not provide an interstitial space. Coated tank requirements are found in Part IV. 3.1.3 added December 19,

16、 2014 3.1.4 COMPOSITE TANK A steel tank with a ber reinforced plastic (FRP) layer or laminate directly bonded to the exterior of the tank which provides external corrosion protection. The FRP layer or laminate does not provide an interstitial space. Composite tank requirements are found in Part II.

17、3.1.4 added December 19, 2014 DECEMBER 19, 2014 UL 1746 8UL COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL NOT AUTHORIZED FOR FURTHER REPRODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM UL 3.1.5 HOLIDAY A small fault, crack, pin hole, or other defect in a non metallic dielectric coating, coating, covering or structural laye

19、cent wall to a collection point for monitoring. 3.1.6 added December 19, 2014 3.1.7 JACKETED TANK A steel tank in a ber reinforced plastic (FRP), high density polyethylene (HDPE), polyurea, or polyurethane (PUR) that forms an interstitial space, where the jacket provides secondary containment and ex

20、ternal corrosion protection. Jacketed tank requirements are found in Part III. 3.1.7 added December 19, 2014 3.1.8 PRIMARY CONTAINMENT The ability of an enclosed design or construction to directly contact and contain a liquid while in normal use. 3.1.8 added December 19, 2014 3.1.9 PRIMARY TANK An i

21、nner wall of a tank construction that provides containment of the product being stored. 3.1.9 added December 19, 2014 3.1.10 SECONDARY CONTAINMENT The ability of a design or construction to directly contact and contain a liquid to a minimum of 300 degrees only in abnormal use (from primary containme

22、nt leakage or rupture). 3.1.10 added December 19, 2014 3.1.11 STORAGE TANK (TANK) A vessel having a liquid capacity that exceeds 60 gallons (230 L), is intended for xed installation, and is not used for processing.
