This European Standard specifies testing, inspection and marking for the type approval, initial inspection, periodic inspection, intermediate inspection and exceptional check of metallic tanks (shell and equipment) of fixed tanks (tank vehicles), demountable tanks, rail tank wagons, portable tanks and tank containers for the transport of dangerous goods.
This European Standard is not applicable to battery-vehicles and battery-wagons comprising cylinders, tubes, pressure drums, bundles of cylinders and multiple element gas containers (MEGCs), independent of whether the elements are receptacles or tanks.
It is essential that the requirements of the applicable regulations for the transport of dangerous goods prevail in all cases over those of this standard.
