9、2009 Edition 2.2 3 Tanks and ancillary equipment for milk tankers 1 Scope 1.1 This specification covers the requirements for tanks and ancillary equipment for tankers used for the bulk transportation of milk. 1.2 This specification does not cover the vehicle to which the tank is fitted. NOTE a) Beca

10、use it is impracticable to test samples taken from each consignment of tanks for compliance with some of the requirements of this specification, no specific sampling procedure has been included, but each tank must be subjected to the hydrostatic pressure test in accordance with 6.2 and inspected in

11、accordance with 6.1. The insulation test (see 6.3) need only be carried out on a prototype, i.e. one tank of each model. Assessment of compliance of a specific tank or consignment of tanks with all the relevant requirements requires special agreement between the manufacturer and the purchaser. Amdt

12、1 This agreement would have to provide for 1) submitting to the purchaser proof of compliance with the specification of the prototype, i.e. a tank of the same model designation, and 2) granting the purchaser access to records of raw materials used and access to the factory to ensure that the tank(s)

13、 and ancillary equipment of this tank/consignment of tanks have been made in the same manner as the prototype from materials at least equal in quality to those used in the manufacture of the prototype. b) The standards and publications referred to in the specification are listed in appendix A. c) Re

14、quirements that must be specified by the purchaser and one that must be agreed upon between the manufacturer and the purchaser are listed in appendix B. 2 Definitions 2.1 For the purposes of this standard the following definitions shall apply: acceptable acceptable to the authority administering thi
