20、dard the following denitions apply. 2.2 CAPACITY, NOMINAL The marked maximum volume of liquid that can be contained in a can. The term rated capacity or maximum lling level may also be used. 2.3 SAFETY CAN, TYPEIAc a nhaving a short valved spout that may be adapted to both pouring and lling. 2.4 SAF

21、ETY CAN, TYPE II A can equipped with a exible or a rigid tubular nozzle attached to a valved spout adapted to pouring only. 2.5 VOLUME, TOTAL The volume equal to the nominal capacity of a can plus any space remaining within the can. 3 General 3.1 Units of measurement 3.1.1 Values stated without pare

22、ntheses are the requirement. Values in parentheses are explanatory or approximate information.

23、xcept as indicated in 3.2.2, a component of a product covered by this standard shall comply with the requirements for that component. 3.2.2 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 i

24、n the product covered by this standard, or b) Is superseded by a requirement in this standard. 3.2.3 A component shall be used in accordance with its rating established for the intended conditions of use. 3.2.4 Specic components are incomplete in construction features or restricted in performance ca

25、pabilities. Such 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. 3.3 Undated references 3.3.1 Any undated reference to a code or standard appearing in the requirements of t

26、his standard shall be interpreted as referring to the latest edition of that code or standard.

30、parate ll opening, shall be constructed so that the use of a funnel or other article during a lling operation will not interfere with free venting of the can. 5.8 A pouring spout shall be constructed to reduce the likelihood of spillage during pouring. 5.9 A Type II can shall incorporate a vent valv

31、e to permit the free discharge of liquid during a pouring operation. The vent valve shall open and close automatically and simultaneously with the opening and closing of the pouring valve. 5.10 An operating part of a can shall be constructed to reduce the likelihood of unintended opening of a valve.

This tting, in turn, shall be attached to the pouring spout by a method that provides a permanent connection that is f

41、ree from leakage. See Flexible Nozzle Test, Section 16. 9 Valves and Valve-Operating Mechanisms 9.1 A cast closure cap shall not be less than 3/32 inch (2.4 mm) thick. A sheet-metal cap shall not be less than 0.054 inch (1.4 mm) thick. 9.2 The closure cap or disc seat of a pouring spout or ll tting
