18、derground, and interchangeable (aboveground or underground) stationary container assemblies for liqueed petroleum gases which include any material having a vapor pressure not exceeding that allowed for commercial propane composed predominately of the following hydrocarbons, either by themselves or a
19、s mixtures: propane, propylene, butane (normal butane or isobutane), and butylenes. These container assemblies are provided with tanks constructed under the appropriate provisions of the current edition of the Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). 1.
20、2 Container assemblies covered by these requirements are those using fuel storage tanks having a water capacity of 4000 gallons (15.14 m 3 ) or less and designed and used only for delivery of fuel in the gaseous phase, but they may also incorporate a liquid take-off in addition to a vapor take-off.
21、This standard does not cover liquid supply to systems or liquid withdrawal from these or any other containers. 1.3 Container assembly installations are intended to be made in accordance with the Liqueed Petroleum Gas Code (National Fire Protection Association); NFPA 58. They are not intended for use
22、 in chemical, petrochemical, petroleum, or utility power plants; nor pipeline or marine terminals; nor related storage facilities at such plants or terminals. 2 Components 2.1 Except as indicated in 2.2, a component of a product covered by this standard shall comply with the requirements for that co
23、mponent. See Appendix A for a list of standards covering components generally used in the products covered by this standard. 2.2 A component is not required to comply with a specic requirement that: a) Involves a feature or characteristic not required in the application of the component in the produ
24、ct covered by this standard, or b) Is superseded by a requirement in this standard. 2.3 A component shall be used in accordance with its rating established for the intended conditions of use. 2.4 Specic components are incomplete in construction features or restricted in performance capabilities. Suc
25、h components are intended for use only under limited conditions, such as certain temperatures not exceeding specied limits, and shall be used only under those specic conditions.

It may include a pressure regulator or a liquid withdrawal valve. When necessary, a copper tubing pigtail is provided for making a connection between the outlet
29、of the service-line shutoff valve and the regulator. A vapor-return valve, a pressure gauge, and a copper tubing connector for making connection between the outlet of the regulator and the fuel service piping may be included in the assembly. Several or all of the parts may be incorporated in the ass
