    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Describes a method for the calibration of vertical cylindrical tanks having diameters greater than 5 m by means of internal measurements using an electro-optical distance-ranging (EODR) instrument, and for the subsequent compilation of tank capacity tables.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This part of ISO7507 specifies a method for the calibration of vertical cylindrical tanks having diameters greater than 5m by means of internal measurements using an electro-optical distance-ranging (EODR) instrument, and for the subsequent compilation of tank capacity tables.

    The method is suitable for tanks tilted up to a 3%deviation from the vertical, provided that a correction is applied for the measured tilt as described in ISO7507-1:2003, Clause11.

    This part of ISO7507 also applies to tanks with floating roofs or internal floating blankets.
