    This European Standard specifies the requirements on and characteristics of top devices of tank wagons fitted for bottom emptying only and filling through the manhole and used for liquid substances of RID. Safety functions of these devices are subject to RID requirements and not described in this document.

    This European Standard specifies in particular the important dimensions and arrangements for the connections of such tank wagons.
