It is only applicable to static blow moulded or rotationally moulded polyethylene tanks, which are subjected to atmospheric pressures but not subject to any external loading and having a volume of 400 l to 10 000 l. Except for periodic temperature fluctuation their normal opera

24、ting temperature does not exceed 25 C. Tanks according to this European Standard are expected to have a period of intended use of 10 years. This European Standard specifies test methods and factory production control tests as well. NOTE National and/or international regulations above and beyond the
